Railroad Accidents.

A train of freight cars broke in two
near Vienna, on the Washington and
Ohio Railroad, yesterday evening, and
the train subsequently coming together
again threw Conductor Walker Jones
from the caboose and painfully injured
him. He was attended by a physician
at Vienna and later returned to his home
in this city where he was attended by
the company's surgeon. The damage
TO the train was slight.
Two box cars of a doube-header freight
train jumped the track and turned over
at Cherry Hill, on the Washington
Southern Railway, last night. No one
was hurt, but the track was blocked seve-
raj hours by the accident.
While the "F. F. "" passenger train
of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway was
coming into the Southern Railway depot
in this city about $3.50 this morning, one
of the wheels of the combination mail
and passenger car fell off, the result of an
overheated journal. The car was taken
from the train and left at the depot in
this city. Had the accident occurred
two or three minutes earlier, when the
train was running at the rate of fifty
miles an hour, a serious wreck would
have been inevitable.

Memorial Day Services.

The exercises in connection with Con.
federate Memorial Day were carried out
according to the programme published
in the Gazette. They, however, did not
enlist the interest Of former years, and
there was noticeable diminution of
people on the streets while the parade
was in progress and at the intersection
of Prince and Washington streets where
Mr.. John II. Alexander, of Leesburg,
delivered the Grafton OF the day. K. E.
Lee Camp of Confederate Veterans es-
corted by the Alexandria Light Infantry,
composed the procession. The Sons
of Veterans were not present as an Or
ganization. The features of the pro-
gramme, however, were enacted, and
the occasion appropriately honored.
Upon assembling at the monument
about six o'clock and after prayer by
Rev. f. J. Brooke Mr.. Alexander was
introduced to the audience by Com
mander Z. II. O'Brien and IN short
but pointed and interesting address the
speaker appealed to the present genera
ticn to preserve the memories OF the
stirring days from 1861 to 1865 and OF
the gallant bands which struggled to
maintain principles still dear to most
southern hearts. He also urged that
southern youth be instructed in I'M
biased history ofthegreat conflict. From
the monument the march was continued
to the mound in Christ Church yard,
which had been beautifully decorated
with flowers. Here a volley was fired,
taps sounded and the ceremonies ended.

KiIIing of James StrOther.

IT was James Strother who was shot
and instantly killed by Thomas Fairfax
in the house Of Anthony Cloe, at 5l5
north Henry street, about o'clock yes
terday afternoon. Strauss was the name
reported at first to police headquarters.
The dead man came from Leesburg
Cloe keeps a negro clearinghouse at
the place where the shooting occurred,
and it is said that Fairfax entered a
room occupied at the time by STROLLER
and several other colored men. He
picked up revolver which belongs to
the proprietor of the house and was
handling it, when il was discharged, the
bnllet entering StrOther's left breast.
Fairfax and the witnesses claim that the
occurrence was purely accidental. Mr..
l.. III. Machen has been retained to de-
fend Fairfax. A cOroner's inquest over
the remains of Strother was held at 10
O'Clock this morning.
DR.. Purvis, the Coroner, began the
inquest at the hour named with the fol-
lowing jury: Messrs. ]. Fl. Trimyer
(foreman), Frank Warfeld, Carter
Smith, II. G. Ashton, G. J. W. Sum-
mers and l.. Ruben.
There were but two witnesses, A. ClOe
and Chauncey Randolph, both colored.
This testimony was direct and to the
effect that Fairfax discharged the pistol
accidentally :; that he and Strother were
friends and worked together; that there
had never been trouble between them,
and that there was no truth in a report
to the effect that Fairfax and StrOther
had had trouble at ball over woman.
Fairfax made similar statement and
also gave the details of the shooting.
DR.. Smith described the course of the
bullet and the immediate cause Of
Strother's death.
The jury returned verdict to the
effect that Strother's death was caused
by a pistol shot discharged by Thomas
Fairfax, aud that the shooting, from the
evidence, was accidental. The prisoner
was accordingly discharged.

Baseball.

From the first inning OF yesteTday S
game between the Episcopal and Metho-
dist Protestant teams the result was
never in doubt and the final score was
10 to 5. The Episcopal team was too
fast for the losers, who played listless
game. The winners, in their attractive
uniforms, batted hard, ran bases well
and fielded like veterans. The batting
work of Poole and Tennesson for the
winners was superb. The fielding fea-
ture was the great work of Zimmerman
on third for the Episcopal team; The
winning team will play the M. E. men
Saturday at 4:30 o'clock.
