THE WRECK OF 1853

Following is an account printed by a South Norwalk paper of the great wreck on the New Haven road in that city May 6, 1853:
 ''The train was the Boston express which left New York at o'clock. At the time of the accident the draw was open and the dray tender was just about to close it. It had been opened about 5 minutes before for the pass age of the steamer Pacific. The fact of the draw being open was commun- icated to the train by a signal, which consisted of red ball elevated upon a pole. Unless this ball was in sight, the trains were forbidden to go upon the bridge. The train did not stop at South Norwalk, and, being about eight minutes late, was hurrying upon it's way to make up lost time. The en- gineer was at his post, the conductor in the second car, and unoccupied.
 The absence of the ball or signal was unnoticed, or, if noticed, was un- needed. The train passed the depot and around the curve at rate of not less than 20 miles an hour. When it reached about 300 feet of the draw. two sudden sharp alarms of the ward w Tucker the fireman and the brakeman leaped from the train, which rushed on into the open draw. The engine, tender, baggage car, smoking car and two passenger cars, together with about half of the next car, plunged some 20 feet into the watery pit below in one mass of wreckage.
 Persons who were near and saw the catastrophe say that the noise of tho crash and the wall of the struggling and dying passengers were heartrend- ing to degree which language Is ut terly inadequate to describe. The water being at full tide, nearly all in the forward car were drowned. The number of lives lost was A, and 25 were rescued from the wreck alive, but badly injured. The calamity caused great excitement and indigna- ton meetings were held, one at Nor walk and another at New Haven. The legislature took the matter into con- sideration and adopted a resolution requiring all trains to stop at least one minute before passing any draw

FIFTY WARSHIPS
 NOW ASSEMBLING
 AT PROVINCETOWN
fspecial from United Press.

(SpecIaI rom lJnlleO FFeSS.)
 Provincetown, Mass, July 22-The vanguard of what is expected to be the largest and most powerful fleet of warships ever assembled by the Unit ed States in any waters, arrived here today. By Monday, with the giant dreadnaught Delaware and the battle ships Kansas, New Hampshire and South Carolina already here, the float ing fortresses which will soon begin battle maneuvers, tests and experi- ments under Admiral Osterhaus will number close to fifty.
 From some of the officers who talked unofficially it was lea1 ned today that it is the general concensus of opinion among officers of both sides. that the defending party was Victorious in tue recent hloodless battle off Block Is- land.
 Boston, July 22-On to Boxford was the order given to the pride of the military of the State of Massachusetts today. Five thousand strong, the Bay State militia from Boston and every other city where it has branches, has entrained from their respective divis- ion headquarters for the Boxford ren- dezvous, where. during the coming week, will be the center of the most extensive military maneuvers ever par ticipated in by Massachusetts militia alone and perhaps the most extensive war game operations ever participated in by the volunteer soldiers of any one State. Militia companies of Boston which left today were entrained with out untoward incident, and throughout the State it was the same.

CHILDREN NOT
 FOR MOTHER
Judge Curtis Holds that Parent Is Incapable of
 Rearing Them

Deciding that Elizabeth Swick flag gerty of this city is not able to prop erly care for her two children, Judge Curtis of the Superior court today handed down a decision allowing them to remain in the custody of their aunts and uneles. This disposes of . the writ Of habeas corpus brought by Mrs Haggerty, who claimed relatives of her dead husband were unlawfully detaining Catherine and Francis flag gerty.
 Judge Curtis finds that the children have been properly cared for since they went to live with Mary, Jennie, Edward, Bessie and Julia Haggerty the defendants. He finds that the mother is unable without outside as- sistance to provide a suitable home for them. In denying Mrs. Haggerty's petition he adds that it is done, with out further prejudice to the complain ant to bring further action to gain the custody of her children if her hab- it's of life become such and her means with or without help from others be- come such that she believes she can provide suitable support for them. ?
