SERIES OF ACCIDENTS ON GEN.
TRIAL WARRINGTON 1AILKoAD,
ENDING IN THE DITOHING or
INCOMING PASsHMGER THIS
MORNING.

The train on the Washington Cen
trail, due here this morning at 1880,
was delayed for more than an hour in
reaching the city by peculiar set of
accidents that tried the perseverance
of railway employees and officials
alike.
Last night freight train was wreck
ed just this side of Cheney on the
Northern Pacific. The track was torn
up for several yards, box cars piled
up and debris badly scattered about
so that it was entirely impossible for
other trains to pass, and the only way
in which to make up time was to build
a complete and new track around this
portion of the obstruction. Help was
sent from this city and the laborers
soon had the new track complete.
Just after the Washington Central
train passed Cheney this morning the
engineer threw open the throttle and
started to make the best time into
the city possible. When near this
new bit of truck he shut down, slowing
up Just little to avoid any possible
accident. His precautions, however,
were unavailing. for on reaching the
scene of last nights trouble the rails,
which had been rather carelessly laid,
spread, and the train was thrown off
the track. The engine had the pilot
battered and wrecked, while the bag
gage car, the mail car and the smoker
all left the track before the train could
be stopped.
The engineer, with splendid pres
ence of mind, stuck to his post and
stopped the train in as short space
as possible.
Aside from the damage to equip
ment there was no further difficulty,
for the passengers, although seriously
shaken up, were uninjured.

He was sued for u divorce on the

Ruage toward him in the presence OF

AS he arose he was received with
applause from both sides. 1t was
his desire simply to vindicate the
dignity of the house. He wanted to
see generous provision made for old
soldiers in their declining years, but
wanted it done by congress, not by

He advocated the Reputation of the
