ON
STATEN. ISLAND
Passenger Train Ran Into Freight
al Richmond Valley
Yesterday.
ONE PERSON WAS HURT
All Passengers were More or Less Shaken
up but Escaped with Slight Bruises
Caboose of Freight Train was Thrown
up on Station Platform and Remained
There.
ONE PERSON WAS HURT

A serious rear end collision occurred
at Richmond Valley yesterday after
noon on the Rapid Transit Railroad,
in which one man was slightly injured
and one other just escaped death by
jumping.
ALI day yesterday the passenger
trains on the Rapid Transit Railroad
were compelled to run slowly because
of the heavy fog that at some times
was so thick that the engineers could
not see foot ahead of them. AS the
passenger train which leaves st.
George 12. .45 and arrives in Totten-
Vile at /. 40, pulled up at the Pleasant
Plains station, a faginan stepped
aboard the engine and told engine
driver Becker to run slowly as the
freight train III charge Of Conductor
James Reilly was at the Richmond
Valley freight station. 1t is said that
the engineer said all right and started
out.
The fog was so heavy that Becker
could not see any distance, and before
he knew it his engine had hit the
caboose of the freight. The caboose
was knocked completely off it's truck
and demolished. A brakeman, who
was inside, jumped, just time enough
to save his life.
The largest portion Of it landed OF
the low roof of the freight station
where it was held. The engine was
running at fair rate of speed and
almost every passenger was knocked
from their seats.
John Kali, of Tottenville, who was
in the first car, landed in the middle
of the aisle and was slightly bruised.
Conductor McAndrews was sitting in
the baggage coach counting tickets
when the engine struck the caboose,
and he received injuries about the
face and body. The brakeman. who
was standing at the passenger coach
door, was thrown to the floor, but was
not hurt, beyond severe shock.
The engine, which is one of the old
timers, lost it's smoke stack and head
light, while the COW catcher was COM
pIetely demolished After the wreck
IL was necessary for all train leaving
Tottenville or st. George TO use the
westbound track. At 3. 80 O'Clock the
wrecking crew arrived and commenced
the work of cleaning up the rubbish.

COAL THIEVES JUMP into ICY
WATER TO ESCAPE THE OFFICERS.
Bold Men in Shifts Take Possession of BareeCove the Captain witt
Revolver While they Rob His ROat and Enjoy Dinner in His
Cabin Officers Tugboa Allentown Make Attack

There has been regular business of
coal stealing going on for some time
from barges in the harbor and last
night an organized raid was made by
a party of Lehlgh Valley detectives,
composed of Chief of detective, James
McDermott, of this citv, and two or
three others. They went out from the
coal docks on the tug Allentown and
surprised the gang at work.
The thieves board a barge from
skiffs, hold up the officer in charge
and then proceed to transfer what
coal they can carry away. to their
skiffs and then get away as quick
ly as possible. Last night the
thieves had boarded the barge and at
the point of the pistol. held up the
captain. They then placed one man
on guard while the others enjoyed a
first class meal from the captain 8
board. This finished they began to
load their skiffs.
The raid by the detectives was
planned several days ago and that
none of the thieves were apprehendcd
is due to no fault of the officers in
charge of the raid. There were five
skiffs in use last night when the pur-
suing party bore down upon the men
at work. One of the boats had already
been filled when the officers rushed
upon the thieves, of whom, as nearly
as can be learned, there were five or
six.
The latter rushed in every direction,
taking to their skiffs. Two of them
went overheard, one making his es-
cape by swimming and by creeping
over the loose ice to the shore.
Detective McDermott notified Police
Headquarters and orders were given
to have patrolmen search the houses,
saloons and dock in the vicinity.
Officers John Morris aid Lawrence
Long made a thorough search, but
without avail The skiffs, however,
were taken and are now at the docks
awaiting the owners, if they choose
to go after them.

ALL DANGER
is PASSED.
Superintendent Burns Says
Streams are Now Open and
Water Supply is Sufficient.
DELAY IN CONNECTION.

Superintendent Burns, of the Water
Department, said this morning that
the water pressure was now sufficient
and that the rain, the higher temper
ature and the opening up of the frozen
streams, where much water had been
arrested, have placed all danger of a
water famine out of the question. He
further said that the factories now
had plentiful supply and that there
was no fear IF q shutdown for the
present. There was no danger of a
tie-up of the trolley system, MIR.
Burns said, as the Raritan Copper
Works have the first chance at the
water coming through the main, and
thus can always secure enough water
to fill their boilers and run the plant.
"If we have five days of clear
weather." said Mr.. Burns, $50 that
we can connect the main, / have no
fear of any further trouble such as
has been experienced the past few
days. -
Owing to the bad weather of the
last three days, it will be impossible
to connect the new main by Wednes-
day as was expected, but work will
be pushed as soon as clear weather
sets in and the connections on the
other side of the river will be made
at the earliest possible date.

Miss Smith Tell Congregation
About Her Life and Her
Great Success.
HER MEETINGS HERE.
Evangelist was Born 10 Canada Her Fam
lily Now Resides on Staten Island Says
She has Worked in the Methodist Church
from a Child and Several Years Ago Felt
a Special Call to go as Special Worker

Miss Annie Agnes Smith drew a
congregation, which, despite the rain,
comfortably filled the auditorium of
Simpson M. L. church last night to
hear her tell the story of her life and
to hear her make her final appeal to
the people of Perth Amboy. The SER
vices were unusually interesting and
helpful, even more so than the nightly
meetings which have been of high
order.
Miss Smith said that she was born
in Canada, twenty. two years ago, and
from childhood had been closely affil-
lated with the Methodist church.
When nine years of age, the family
moved to New York, shortly after
wards again changing their place of
residence to Staten Island. All these
years she had been an earnest worker
for the church, but five years ago she
felt special call to the work of an
evangelist. Since THAT time Miss
Smith has been working, with great
success, in New York, Staten Island,
Saccasunny, Dover and other places.
Miss Smith is allied with the Metho-
dist church When she goes to a town
or city, the church where the services
are being held, pays her board and
presents her with freewill Offering
upon her leaving. At the collection
last night over $40 was raised to pre-
sent to Miss Smith.
Miss Smith has been here three
weeks, in which time she has met
with the most gratifying success
Last night three persons asked tor
prayers.
BY special arrangement Miss Smith
will remain at Simpson M. f. church
until Sunday night, when she will be
heard for the last time.
Miss Smith says that she is greatly
gratificd and encouraged at the suocess
she has enjoyed in Perth Ambov. She
likes the people and work in this city
and has been, so she says. especially
pleased by the support lent her by the
men of Simpson M. E. church.
Rev. S. T. jackson, pastor Of the
church, told News reporter that he
has been very much encouraged at the
excellent attendance at the meetings
and that they have been the mosl
largely attended of any during hi'
pastorate i'll this city.
The music last night was very mucl
enjoyed. Mrs. Macan sang a solo
"Jesus Comforts. " The choir render
ed, Hallelujah to the king, " anC
"When the Roll is Called up Yond
or. - Miss Thomas sang Not Ashamed
of Christ" and with Mr., Thoma
sang duet, "Faoe to Face" Mis-
| Derby sang, He Leadeth Me. F."

Watches Taken from Window Of
KnudsOn's JeweIry Store
Last Night.
CUT HOLE IN GLASS.
Robbery was Committed from the Sidewalk
Piece Of the Window Foot Square
Taken Out and Watches were Lifted
from the Trays-yaluabIe IeweIry was
Nearby.

Another robbery, within q block
from the scene of Wednesday nights
affair, occurred last night. The glass
at the side of the window of John
Knudsen IS jewelry store, at S43 State
street, was broken, and nine ladies'
gold watches, valued at about 500,
were stolen.
The watches, dozen of them, were
on tray, and as the hole was only
about foot wide, it would not admit
Of removing the tray, so the time
pieces were taken out separately, the
thief, in his haste, dropping three of
them. There were several other arti-
cles in the window, a tray of rings
lying alongside of the watches, but
yet nothing else was touched.
Mr.. Knudsen thinks the work that
of an amateur, from the mere fact
that more valuable articles were left
undisturbed, while the watches, only
Q or 8 of which contained works, were
taken.
At the bottom of the large hole can
be seen round one, about 3 iISehes in
diameter, through which was thrust
the instrument with which the glass
was broken. The work must have
seen dono With an iron ni bzr cs ss'css=v--
thing of the sort, as the plate glass IN
the window is very thick.
Mr.. Knudsen worked in the store
until, 1C. 80 last night, and as it was SO
late he neglected to remove the jewel
ry from the window. Two dogs are
always IN the store at night and en-
trance could not have been effected.
No one in the vicinity heard any noise
and the loss was not discovered by
Mr.. Knudsen until he went to the
store about s O'Clock this morning.
The police are working on the case.
