amusement is provided. Twenty-Five

crowds go there every day. II win take
a good deal of money to establish such a

That Rochester beat Buffalo yesterday
is the sum total of yesterdays Eastern
League baseball news. Jersey City ard
Baltimore are resting at a tie in first
place and Providence is only about a
game behind Providence is playing pc
culiar game in this years contest for the
pennant and there are not a few spsrting
inclined people who, following the for
unes of the Eastern League clubs are
willing at this stage Of the game
to risk all on Providence.
Buffalo, the champions. took sudden
tumble. It was queer sort of tumble.
She didn't belong in the second division,
but she's been cruising with clubs of
that division for quite number of
moons. She has broke into the first di-
vision again, and though several battles
behind it may not surprise some of the
Eastern League fans in Jersey City and
Baltimore with Providence thrown in,
10 soon see the Bisons cruising near the
top. The Bisons We're beaten yesterday
by the discounted Broneos, who beat
them by a score of 4 to 3.

oEArH.oEAllHs WRECK IN MARYLAND.
Twenty.thres People We're Killed and Score
injured Victims all Tralnmen.

Baltimore, June 17-By far the worst
wreck in the history of the Western
Maryland Railroad occurred this evening
at point about quarter of mile from
Patapsco, a small station between West
minister and Finksburg. At leaat 23 peo-
pie are believed to have been killed and
score or more injured.
Passenger train No. 81, eastbound, was
running at very high rate of speed
when, at the point named, it crashed
into double-header freight running
east. All three of the engines were re-
duced to scrap iron, the express and bag.
gage cars of the passenger were smash ed
and number of the freight cars were
splintered. The passenger coaches sus.
tanned little injury and almost with out
exception their occupants escaped with
nothing worse than bad shaking up
The fatalities and injuries were to the
crews of the engines and to workmen
employed by the railroad. 1t is a re.
markable coincidence that these latter
should have been at work repairing the
damage caused by q recent small freight
wreck that occurred at Mount Hope sta
tion, near this city. They were on their
way to their homes, in small towns along
the Western Maryland RAILROAD, to spend
Sunday. Not being regular passengers
they had boarded the baggage car and
engine. When the crash came, the more
fortunate who were on the. engine
jumped or were thrown from the train
and were only injured. Those in the
baggage car were terribly mangled and
the crews of all three engines were
killed. Their bodies are all believed to
be under the wreckage of the engines.
Although all the help that can possibly
be used is at hand, there are dead and
injured yet under the wreckage.
No one can be found tonight willing
to say who was responsible for the dis
aster, although it seems to have been the
fault of those in charge of the freight.
The wreck occurred on curve, where
the PatapscO river is crossed. The pas
seneer train was running at a spe ed of at
least 30 miles an hour and the freight,
an extra, made up chiefly of heavy coal
cars, was also running rapidly.
