out near the residence of George H.

A special town meeting was held on
Thursday afternoon to consider a
proposition of the Consolidated R. R.
in relation to moving the depot at
Greens Farms. The meeting was call-
ed to order by the town clerk, W. J.
Finch and Daniel B. Bradler. chosen
chairman. After the reading of the
call Mr. William J. Jennings arose and
stated the object of the meeting. He
said, substantially, that the depot had
stood for about twenty—five years on
the green ; that it was the most central
location, but that owing to the propos-
ed improvements, it was claimed bythe
company that there was not room
enough and that on Sunday they load—
ed the depot on cars and moved it to
the eastward about half of a mile, to
what is known as Meeker’s crossing.
This location would be a very incon-
venient one for the greater part of the
people, but that the company would
bring it back a part of the way if the
town would buy the land and build a
road to it, which could be done for
about $800. This they asked the town
to do. Mr. John H.Jennings followed
against the appropriation and in favor
of leaving the depot where it now is.
Mr. Ebenezer Beers also spoke in fav-
or Of the present location and against
the proposed project. The vote was
then taken which resulted in voting to
open the road and appropriate the sum
of $800 to pay for the same. But if the
depots are liable to be picked up, load-
ed upon a car and dropped anywhere
they choose, what guarantee is there
but that in a few years it will be moved
atg‘pin and other roads opened to get to

A Train Tumbles Over and Ten
Deaths Will Be the Result.
TWO WERE TAKEN OUT DEAD
Emmons Blaine and the Vice President
of the Road Shaken Up—Bad as It.
Was, the Accident Might Have
Been Much \Vorsdi.
FORT WAYNE, Ind., Oct. 16.—While the
Baltimore and Ohio fast train east, No. 3,
.was passing Hicksville, 0., at a high rate
of speed, the four rear coaches, including
'Vice President King’s special car, were
thrown from the‘track by the spreading of
Two brothers named Mathuse,
of Montpelier, 0., were killed and thirty
others were badly injured. Tenwill die.
Doctors from Defiance and Hicksville are'
attending the wounded.
Emmons Blaine was on the train, but
was not seriously injured. A report by
telephone from Auburn says thatatravJ
cling man who drove from Hicksville
after the wreck said that Emmons Blaine
was shaken up, but not hurt.
Over the Embankment.
The latest advices say that but two per‘
sons were killed, but swell the number of
injured to fifty, ten at least of whom will
die. When the express was at a point not
far from the station, where it is not sched-
uled to stop, in rounding a sharp curve on
an embankment twenty feet high, the
four rear cars, two sleeping cars, a. passen‘
ger coach and Vice President King’s pri-
vate car left the truck and rolled down the
embankment, turning over twice in their
descent to the bottom.
The train was running at a speed fifty
miles. an hour, and the shock was tre-
mendous. In a moment the air was filled
with the groans and shrieks of the injured
and imprisoned passengers.
“Two Taken Out Dead.
Assistance came from the town almost
immediately and the work of rescue was
begun. All the physicians and surgeons
of the neighborhood were summoned. The
bodies of two men were taken out shortly
afterward. They were relatives, named
Mathuse, one of Chicago Junction, 0., and
the other of Montpelier, 0.
All the hotels and public buildings of
the little town were at once thrown open
and turned into hospitals, the wounded
being removed as rapidly as possible.
The citizens at Hicksville have thrown
open their houses and are doing all possi-
ble to relieve the suffering. The utmost
excitement reigns at Hicksville, and it has
been impossible so far to even get a. partial
list of the names of the injured. A special
train was sent down from Garrett with
physicians to look after and care for the
wounded.
Might Have Been Worse.
Forty rods east of where the wreck oc-
curred is a high trestle, and terrible as the
accident has been, the casualty would
have been much greater if the train had
gone over there. The track was torn up
for nearly 200 yards. Robert Rodgers, a
prominent resident of this city, was on the
train, but was not hurt. _
Vice President King was badly shaken
up, but was not seriously hurt. His
private coach was torn to pieces.
Engine and Freights Wrecked.
OSTRANDER, 0., Oct. 16.—Quitea serious
wreck occurred on the Big Four railroad
at \Vhite Sulphur station, four miles east
of here. Train No. 66, in charge of Con-
ductor Tim Burns, took a siding. The
siding not being long enough, five cars
were left standing on the ~main track.
Train No. 5, fast passenger, running at a
high rate of speed, going west, struck and
wrecked five cars of the freight train and
badly wrecked the engine of No. 5. No
lives were lost and no one seriously ind
jured. Engineer Gregory had a narrow
escape from being crushed to death. He
came out with slight bruises. The track
was blocked for five hours.
Astonishing Escape from Dent-h.
ANOKA, Minn, Oct. 16,—A serious colli-
sion cecurred on the Great Northern road
last night.
run into :1 Great Northern freight train,
which was waiting at the station while
the crew was eating supper. About fif
tccn cars were badly smashed and the.
road was blockaded. Only two men were
hurt, and but slightly. A passenger in
the caboosv of the Great Northern train
was hurled through the top of the car,
over a train on the side track to the
ground. It was an astonishing escape
from death. NO trains can pass on the
Northern Pacific track until the wreck is
clearer.
urn Minors Instantly Killed. I
RED LODGE, Mon., Oct. 16.—Patrick Ad-
ams and Thomas Stewart, two of the old-
est miners employed by the coal company.

BRIEF XVI ENTION.
The United States ship Atlanta has ar-
rived safcly at the Delaware Breakwater,
after a rough sea experience. Six of her
crew were injured by an explosion on
board.
Eleven persons were injured, three prob
ably fatally, at St. Paul by the explosion

after cfifectin g some repairs.
Fred Kempson, an escaped negro convict
from the Columbia. (S. C.)_ penitentiary,
met in the woods the woman whom he
was charged with assaulting and gave her
the choice of having her throat cut or hav-
ing her ears cut off. She preferred the
laiter, and Kempson promptly performed
the operation.
The report that the Anchor line steam-
ship City of Rome was wrecked proved to
be untrue. The rumor arose from the re
port-col wreck of a cattle steamer with a
similar name.
Ex- President Cleveland addressed a
large meeting of Kings county Democrats
in Brooklyn, being enthusiastically re-
ceived. Mr. Cleveland made a strong plea
for party unity in the present campaign.

inated the auditor, whose books are now
’ being examined by experts.

cle, said that in recent years Parnell sus-
pected O’Shea of being the cause of all his
