CIRCUS IN A WRECK
Buffalo Bill's Aseregation Meets
With Big Loss in a Rail-
road Smashup.
Over A Hundred Ring Horses
Crushed to Death. "0ld
Pap" Killed.
Col. Cody Heart Broken Over
the Slaughter Of His
Pet Equines.

Charlotte, N. c., Oct. 30.-One hundred
and ten of the ring horses of Buffalo
Bits Wild West show were crushed to
death in wreck on the Southern rail-
road near Lexington at o'clock yester-
day. Among the horses killed was Old
Pap, Colonel Cody's favorite saddle
horse. Old Eagle, the star ring horse,
was killed, and his mangled body fell on
top of one of the wrecked engines. The
mules that drew the Deadwood coach
also were killed.
Colonel Cody spent the day at the
scene of the wreck and is heartbroken
over the slaughter. He says his loss is
100000.
The accident was the result of a head
on collision between fast s,outh-bound
freight train and the second section of
the show train, and was due to a misun-
derstanding Of orders. Several train
hands were injured, but no one was
killed.
Twelve thousand people greeted the
Wild West show in Charlotte, and it left
at midnight for Danville. Va. where it
was to have made its last stand of the
season. At Danville the show was to
have disbanded and the animals sent to
Bridgeport, Conn.,, to go into winter
quarters. The show left here in three
sections. Near Lexington. as the second
section was going twenty-five miles an
hour, fast south-bound freight train
crashed into it. Both engines were
wrecked.
Next to the engine OF the show train
were two large stock cars containing the
horses, ana this Is where slaughter &C.
Cured. The cars were smashed into a
huge. distorted mass of debris, and only
two horses escaped alive. The scene was
sickening. From the mass Of wreckage
blood poured in a stream that ran
alongside the railroad track in a small
rivulet. Col. Cody's engagement at Dam
willie WAS Cancelled in consequence of the
disaster, which marked the close Of a
very successful tour.
Forspaush Circus Train Wrecked.
New Orleans, Oct. 3O-The Forepaugh
& Sells circus train, which left this city
Monday night, was wrecked one mile
this side Of Baton Rouge at noon yes
terday. Four cars loaded with animal
cages were badly wrecked, but none Of

the animals allowed to escape. "A car
load OF elephants was turned loose. but
after they had wandered about the
country short time, We're driven into
Baton Rouge and corralled. Three men
were badly hurt.
The wreck was caused by the front
section of the circus train running into
the rear end of freight train.

Mr.. M'CARD'YS BOAST.
HAD NOTHING TO STAND ON IN AT
LEAST ONE INSTANCE.

Comptroller j. J. McCardy spoke WITH
out proper acquaintance Of the facts
when he stated in a public interview
Monday, that only for the thoToughness
in the inspection of all bills passing
through his Office the city would be out
SD because of an apparent neglect on
the part of those in charge of the books
at the office of the school board.
The facts of the case referred to by
Mr.. McCardy are these: Last month
when the principal of the Central high
school sent in the teachers pay roll it
was checked up by Secretary Healy, of
the school board, who found that tina
name of one teacher, who had been off
duty, was on the list for $110 He at
once erased the name and amount from
the pay roll, but neglected to deduct it
from the total amount When the pay
roll went to the comptroller this error
in the footing. was discovered But nc
check had been drawn for the $110, and
that amount would have still been in
the possession of the city after all the
checks had been drawn. There was no
chance for the city to lose that amount
and it didn't make a particle of differ
ence whether the clerks in the comp
troller's Office had detected the error in
footing or not. Mr.. McCardy din't save
the city a dollar or cent by either
this case or any other so far as the pay
rolls of the board of education are ccn-
cerned If there was any money saved
to the city it was saved by Secretary
Healy not Comptroller McCardy.

Opposition to capital punishment was
the main ground, as usual, on which
talesmen were rejected. This is an easy
way to get out of services on the case,
anc it is suspected that some not over
conscientious men to whom jury duty is
disagreeable, have made their scruples in
this regard seem more pronounced than
they actually are.
The examinations have brought out
strongly the fact that it is sympa thy
for the defendant which influences the
majority against conserving to a consfd-
Grafton of the case. Two men, who were
otherwise fairly acceptable, had no hest
fancy in saying that the possibility of the
infection of the extreme penalty in this
particular case had given rise to their
scruples against returning verdict of
guilty If the penalty might be death.

place were such as to lead the husband
of the woman to seek the life of the
young society man if the opportunity Of

this man who thrust the knife into the

A meeting was held yesterday but it.

Yond an inspection of the proposed adj

had in mind for some time as a Local

used by the Dyer music house as a re-
pair shop, and would have been acquired
long ago. but for the rental which the
board thought a little high. Lack of
money was also a preventive, but this
has been Unexpectedly removed by the
late rummage sale which netted the as

on hand this makes available a sum
slightly less than S9,GG0, and enables the

gymnasium it will contain cooling ard
sweat rooms and a large number OF
lockers for wearing apparel. The orig

counter, but this now will be placed on
one of the lower floors
If the extra room is acquired, steps
will be taken at once to make the i'm,

completed by spring. The subcommittee
will complete the arrangements today
and the matter will be further clinched
at a meeting of the full board to be held
