AN AWFUL RAILWAY ACCIDENT. OMAHA, July 12.â€"-Au appalliner accident to an excursion train occurred early last evening at Logan, Iowa, 35 miles east of this city,on the line of the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad. in which 31 persons, living in this city. Council Bluffs, Missouri Valley and intervening points, were killed and 40 injured. The train consisted of fifteen c0uches, loaded down with members of the Union Pacific Pioneer Association of Omaha and their families and friends. The excursion party left Omaha early in the day, picking up recruits at Coun- cil Bluffs, Missouri Valley and Wood- bine, Ia. Its destination was Logan, Iowa. About 7 this evening the jour~ ney home was commenced. The train had hardly passed the limits of the city, and was rounding a curve, when down brakes was whistled, and then came a crahh. The excursion train had been run into by a fast freight. and all the coaches were ditched. This has been a day of general mourning in Omaha. The crowds of anxious people at the depot did not scatter with the break of day. although the excitement of the night were off as relatives and friends of the dead ones became con- vinced of the worst. About 7 o'clock the first funeral train from the scene of the catastrophe arrived at the Union Depot. and there was an involunlurv push forward to gratify a morbid desire to learn the news from those who had been in the disaster. The first. train contained many of the more seriously injured, and as the poor unfortunates were lifted, in blankets, from the ear, the groans of the wounded mingled with the agonized sobs of relatives and friends. Twenty passengers were taken in ambulances to St. Joseph’s Hospital. Several of them cannot hope to livo more than afew hours. At 8.30 o’clock the train carrying the dead was sighted coming across the long Union Pacific trestle. As it drew up to the station a special cordon of police guarded the approaches and kept the crowd back. Seventeen bodies laid on pine boards and covered with a plain muslin shroud were taken one by one and placed in a long row on the door of the baggage- room. Those silent forms gave evi- dence of the force of yesterday's col- iision. Headless trunks. bodies without limbs. limbs without. bodies, were goth- ercd in that small space. Occasionally scuie one would recognize the features ofn son or a daughter. Kind friends would-gently lead them from the room. and the body would be ticketed and» sent to the undertaker’s. Wonderful Warships. TWO ENORMOUS NEW BRITISH CRUISERS. â€"â€"â€"_. NEW YORK, July 12.â€"A London special says: “ The enormous unar- mored cruiser Terrible, recently built on the Clyde for Ithe British navy, maintained a speed of twenty knots an hour on her recent maiden trip from Glasgow to Portsmouth,and it is asscrt- ed that her maximum speed was 24 knots, which is certainly remarkable in view of her size and length, 14,200 tons and 500 feet respectively. Not less remarkable is the Terrible's coal- carrying capacity, enabling herto steam 25,000 miles without recoaling. Her sister ship, the Powerful, is soon to be in commission, and then the British Admiralty may claim to hold the world’s record in this class of vessels. The naval experts are not satisfied, however. They are still crying aloud for more men, more quick-firing guns and such like things, which, of course, mean more money. The leader of the malcontents, Capt. Lord Charles Beresford, loses no opportunity of warning.r Englishmen that they are living in a fool's paradise and being deceived by the very people who ought to tell them the whole truth. No doubt, he says, we are gradually rem- edying the grave defect of too few ships. but what is the use of building ships if you do not at the same time increase the number of men? This distin- guished critic pledges his veracity as a man that if war were declared to. morrow a score of powerful warships would have to remain in port for lack of sailors and stokers to man them. and this for the sole reason that. the Govern- ments of the day, Tory and Liberal alike, fear to face the necessary expen- diture and so keep the strength of the Ontario Marriage Law. TORONTO. July ll.â€"â€"Un the fit‘S' of August next. the Marriage Act pa-‘-‘.l at the last session of the LOO-ll Logisti- tnre will come into force The not pro- vides that before procuring a marri‘iuo license each of the contracting pat‘ti ‘3 shall make an amdavit stating the date on which the ceremony is to be lml-l ; that they are each full eighteen years of age and that there is no legal bar In their marriage. A record of these afii- davits will be kept by the issuer ol the license, and be will forward to the lieg- istrar-Genernl's department the names, ages, occupations and religion of the contracting parties. These new {ca'urw of the marriage law were added at the suggestion of the Ministers, who discus- sed them pretty fully at their meetings. 0-. Fool And Not Rogue. Just now the Mail and Enipirc is busy making repairs in the throne of supremacy which crumbled under their lordshin the bishops and arch- bishops and vicars general of Quebec on June 23. It would be good for Canada if the whole country understood the truth, that the French-Canadians of Quebec defied the clergy, superior and inferior, on election day. Foolish journals assume that in this case the country’s good will be the party‘s evil, and they shout that the defeat of Gov- ernment in Quebec is part of the vast design of the hierarchy which accspts the iguominy of apparent defect. in or- der to clutch the profits of real victory. The results of the election indicated that the hierarchy of Quebec was a fool, and now party organs would have the country believe that the hierarchy afore- said is a sad rogue, which deluded both the Government and the country.â€" Telegram. o + ..â€"-____ , Goalie Algoma. x. TORONTO, Ont, July 10.â€"A Swoll- cate composed of gentlemen living in Toronto, Ottawa, Sudbury and Buffalo recently learned of what they thought would prove to be a good thing in Al- goma, and they sent Prof. Mickie, ol' the Toronto School of Practical Science, to investigate. Prof. Mickle is an emi- nent mining expert, and consequently the syndicate has confidence in the re- port he sends them, which is enough to turn the heads of most men who have a good thing at stake. The good thing is that cool has been discovered in Algoma, and Prof. Miekle says the deposit is extcnsive and of fair quality. The deposit is located within thirty miles of Sudbury, and convenient to the Canadian Pacific Railway. The mem- bers of the syndicate decline to permit; their names to be made public at present. Further news is expected to reach the city tonight, and the lucky men are confident, from what they have already heard from Prof. Mickle, that. the dis- covcry will create a boom in the iron industry of Algoma. . §.â€".____._ ” Highwaymen ” are Women. WILKESBARRE, Pm, July ll.â€"'l‘ho gang of Highwaymen which has been causing so much trouble around Warrior run and Sugar Notch, near hear is cum- posed of women. This startling dis- covery was made and is now the talk of the two towns. Henry Wilson. who lives infan outlying portion hf Warrior run, was going home‘hst night, shortlv before 12 o’clock, when at a lonely spot on the road three persons sprang :tb him from an empty lot and demanded his money. He turned to run, but they were too quick for him and one of them caught him. Wilson grappled with his assailant. and there was a short and desperate struggle. during which Mr. Wilson discovered that tho robber wore skirts, ha-l long hair and emitted a couple of decidedly feminine shrieksns Wilson‘s blows struck true. Then her companions came to her assist- ance and Wilson was knocked dowu and relieved of his watch and some money, and the highway robbers disappeared in the darkness. Wilon hurried back to the town, told his story, and :. num- ber of men hurried to the apot, but the women had made their escape. It is supposed that they are responsible for several hold-ups which have taken place in that vicinity during the last few weeks.. .-_._. ‘ ._.,.-__ . __. 0 Manitoba crop reports continue to be nary’s personnel below what should be of .1 gratiiying_naturc.
