of the control OF heavy freight
train consisting of twenty-four care,
which was coming from Mauch Chunk
to Ashley. The train WAS In charge
of Engineer Johu Rshrig. AT Laurel
Run, while descending the steep
grade down the mountain, cor
troll was lost and the heavy train went
laundering down in the direction OF
Ashley at q tremendous rate OF speed.
1t had been raining during the early
evening and the tracks were wet and
slippery.

greatly alarmed by the noise OF the ex-
plosion as we'll rs by the shaking Of
their houses. Even in Wilkesbarre
many of the strongest edifces felt the
severity OF the shock and trembled VIC
lently.
There was great Consideration and
confusion, and the Scene of the disaster
is wild picture OF dlsmsy, resembling
the result OF fierce cyclone. Physl-
clans were summoned to the scene by
the company. who did ell they could to
alleviate the sufjeriHgs of the injured.
The citizens Of Ashley We'd with each
other 10 the devotional assistance.
The loss is heavy and cannot as yet
be fully estimated.

PORTSMOUTH WON.
A Well Played and Holly Contested
Game From Norfolk Yesterday.

In many respects the baseball game
between Norfolk and Portsmouth.
played at League Park, was the fastest
exhibition of the national game seen in
Virginia this season. OBricn and
Flanagan were The opposing twirlers
and both were at their best, but fast.
clean fielding helped them both, and
several seeming safe hits were turned
into errors by the desperate chances
| taken by tielders on both teams. The
game abounded in plays of the sensa-
tionai and Embarrassing order, and all
the errors made were eXcusablc ones.
1t was . BrienS first game pitched
in Portsmouth uniform and he bore
the honor nobly. seeming to realize the
fact that he had Il fast. safe team of
fieldcrS behind linn. for he made no at
tempt at strike out record, putting
the ball over tho plate 10 be hit. But
his team mates helped him to hold the
heavy hitting aggregation from across
the river down to four singles, only in
one inning more than one hit coming.
and then only two.
John Smith got n single after two
were out in the first inning, but was
caught trying to stretch il into Il dou-
BILE. In the second inning. after Beau

81 hit and took second on passed ball

never had another chance to score. al

getting on bases. one by a free pass
and one on an error.
Eohnle got a life In the first inning
for Portsmouth on Spratts error, but
Rapp went out to short. and the next
two men struck out. Clarke got n hit
in the second and advanced to third on
Spratt's other error but two men were
out and Flanagan settled and struck
out the next man. O'Brien led off with
n hit in the third and was forced by
Nohnle. Big Bill then came to the
rescue with a hard drive which bound
cd over left field fence. which made
Portsmouths score two. Another was
added In the third on Huswitts single
jim Smiths error and Morrissey's sin
gle. Murray led off in the sixth with
hit and Gates followed with another
but Murray was caught trying to take
third. Clarke got life on Tierney's
error. both men scoring on Morrissey's
beauty for two bases. Ramp drew n
free pass and stole second In the sew
enth. but was left at third.
Byers umpired the game and his de-
cisions gave general satisfaction. only
