CRAZY "ashlar; ESCAPE.

 

Nine Break Out of Jail—Three of Them
Still at Large.

AUBURN, N. Y., Aug. 7.—While two of
the attendants in ward 6 of the state hos-
pital for insane criminals were at their
meal, leaving but two men in charge,
there was an outbreak of crazy convicts.
The ward is that devoied to the most dan-
gerous men in the institution, and had
about twenty inmates in charge of four
men.

Nine crazy convicts set upon the two
keepers present wit.,out warning. The

keepers made a valiant struggle. but were, .

overpowered finally, one of t‘n-m being
stabbed twice. under the rigor. shouin- .'
blade. He fought deSperately. and l;._,:
three cuts in the palm of his right hanf.
where be grasped the con vict’s knife.

Having overcome the keepers the con-
victs took their keys and opened a passage-
way to the ‘airing area. From there it
was easy to scale the low wall and away
they went, nine of tin-m, in all directions.
The escape was not discovered until the
two absent keepers returned. Then the
alarm was given, and in a short time the
whole western part of the city, into which
the convicts headed, was astir. Beforejan
hour five of them were recaptured, and
then T. J. Arindel, 3. Bulletin reporter,
caught convict McGraw, the most ath-
letic and dangerous of the party, as he
was begging from a widow lady.

The convict knocked Arindel down, but
was subsequently brought to bay by a re-
volver furnished the reporter by the fright
ened lady occupant of one of the houses
in the neighborhood.

How severe are the wounds of Attendant
.W'elch have not yet been determined.

There was only a. moderate amount of trad.

ing on the.Stock exchange this morning. Union
Pacific was the feature. A rumor circulated in
London that a receiver would be or had been
appointed for the road caused a heavy pressure
to sell over there, and at the opening of this
market the stock was heavily pressed for sale
for London account. The price of the stock
gave way on almost every transaction, and by
11 o‘clock the stock was down to 3654 against
38% last evening. The rest of the market was
comparatively dull and the changes in prices
slight. The whole list was weak in sympathy
with Union Pacific, and fell yg to 1 per cent. by
the hour named. In the second hour to noon
Union Pacific further declined to $74 and the
remainder of the stocks were feverish. Sugar
trust was the only exception, being strong and
advancing 1 per cent. to 52%. At the close the
market was unsettled. The sales for the day
amounted to 101.300 shares.

Frighti‘ul .SlllaSIlll'p on the West
Shore Near Port Byron, N. Y.

ELEVEN KILLED OUTRIGIIT.

All the Dead but One, the Fireman, “'ere
Italian Lalmrims—Twenty ()tlicrs
Injured—Thu». Accident \Vas

Caused by a. Collision.

SYRACUSE, N. Y., Aug. 7.—The St. Louis
express on the \Vest Shore railroad met
with ater-rible accident three miles west
of Port Byron, near what is known as the
Dutchess cut. The train was running at
a high rate of speed, and at that point ran
intoafreight train. The wreck was an
awful one, and so far the deaths number
eleven. Those killed outright and those
who died from their injuries were all Ital-
ians but one—the fireman of the passenger
train. Eleven Italians were badly hurt,
and four will probably die. Twelve cars
of the freight train were wrecked and
piled up on the trucks, completely block-
ing the tracks. '

The Italians were in the smoking: car,
which was completely wrecked. Hardly a
whole piece of timber was left of the car.
The wreck took fire, and the passenger
train was: burned, with the exception of
three sleeping cars. The train was made.
up of two express cars, a. baggage car, a
smoking car, a day our and four sleeping
cars.

The Killed and Injured.

The following is a list of the killed and
wounded:

Killed—Michael Bergen, fireman on pas—
senger train, lives at Macedon; Alphonse
Carilla, Coco Rocco, Veanzo Dilauri, Dom-
inico Richone, Thomas Mei-lino, John
Rosio, Dominico Sautilo, Antonio Scaz-
zafi‘ava and John Grambott, all Italians,
and an unknown Italian, who died on
the way to Syracuse.

Injured — Mihle Codarella, Giovanni
Rosso, Runco Agostmo, Tomaso Canzo-
rino, Luppis Camilli, anpis Agostino,
Arico Cialone, Joseph Mascarelli, Angelo
Novelli, tocco Agosturo and Antonio
Cobbella, all Italians; Benjamin Pitts, Of
Oneonta; James Chasen, of St. Louis; J.
Myers, of No. §0,025 Fillmore avenue, Buf-
falo; Frank Salter. of North Salina street,
Syracuse; .To‘nn Preston, of \Vest Troy;
Patrick Ryan, engineer passenger train,
East Buffalo; Mr. 'l'eiior, of \Vest Point,
and Mr. LewiCe, of Norwich.

. A Passenger’s Stury.

John F. Bowdish, of Boston, had been
riding in the smoking car and had been in
a doze, but was fully awake when the
crash came. He said: “The first thing
that attracted my attention was the work-
ing of the ail-brake. It flashedzthrough
my mind that something terrible was
about to happen. Quicker than I could

' take a second thought there was a crash,

shrieks, and all was darkness and con-
fusion. I felt myself pinned down bya
great weight. I could look below me and
see broken boards, beams and car wheels,
but was unable to move. Soon I heard
the crackling ot' flames. You cannot im-
agine the horror that crept over me asl
thought that the next moment the flames
would be upon me and I would be slowly
cremated alive.

“‘My God, help me? I cried. ‘Hurry:
hurry!’

It “'ayi Awful.

“Just then I heard a voice, ‘Here’s a
man alive; let’s get him out.’ Then I
heard the sound of axes. and pleasantex
noises never greeted my ears, I can assure
you. It was hope not unmixed with fear,
however, for there frequently came the
thought that the roaring flames would
drive away the workers before they reached
me and I would be left to my fate. I sup-
pose it was only a few minutes, but it
seemed an age when daylight broke in
from above and two burly trainmen hand!
ed me out. I was faint from excitement
and shock, and laid down on the marsh.

My right arm is badly bruised and, as you '

see, my face is cut considerably. My right
side pains me greatly, though I have been
examined by a physician who says no bones.
are broken, but that I am badly shaken
up. I tell you it was awful. It is the first
railroad accident I have ever been in and I
hope the last.” .
_ 130th Disappeared.

Fireman Bergen, who was killed, had
been employed by the TVest Shore for a
long time and leaves a wife at Macedon. It
is reported that the engineer and fireman
of the freight train have disappeared, but
railroad men say that they are not respon-
sible for the accident. The. cause was the
breaking in two of the freight train as it
was going on the switch. A flagman had
been sent back, but the engineer did not
see him because of a. dense fog.

The “‘m‘k of Train “'reckers.

KALAMAZOO, Aug. 7,—The Grand Rapid.

and Indiana express, bound south, wa.
wrecked three miles north of this place,
evidently by train wreckers, as spikes,
bolts and nuts were found withdrawn
from the rail. A baggage and express car
day coach and sleeping cars were thrown
from the track and rolled down the em
bankment. The sleeping car turned com-
pletely over and was badly wrecked
Nearly all the injured, twelve in number
were taken from the sleeping car.

The list of injured is as follows: Mrs
Myria Tipton, Kalamazoo; W. S. Bratt
Grand Rapids; Luther Waterman, Nowell
T. C. Phelps, home unknown; Henry G
Dykehouse, Grand Rapids; A. Conway,
Fort Wayne, Ind.; Miss Maude Hayner
Plainwell, Mich; M. P. Williamson, Tren
ton; Mrs. J. Earl Key, Grand Rapids; C
L. Holmes, Appleton, VVis.; H. H. Smith
Mackinaw, Mich; C. A. Shellman, Balti
more. Several are seriously injured; on(
or two may die.

The engineer says the rails appeared Ilkl
an open switch, He immediately appliec‘
the brakes, but too late. A section fore
man had inspected the track an hour be
fore and found everything all right.
