HORRIBLE ACCIDENT. Fifteen Workmen Mangled and Burned to Death in a Eailway Collision. Pittsburgh Telegram. A west-bound freight collided with the graveltrain on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad one mile wist of Connellsvillc. A number ot laborers weie killed and many were injured. The scene of the disaster Is n a sharp curve Just west of the Spccr Sand Works. The freighttrain waa heavily laden with ore. The grarcltrain consisted of six cars. It con lined about fifty men from tbe Pittsburgh Southern Road, and they were on their way to Ohio Pyle Falls to work on the gracing for a double track on the east end of this division. Both train were going at a high rate of speed and came together with a terrible crash. The engines remained on the track and telescoped eaoh other Into the smokestacks, bnt tho heavy tende a jumped into the air nud fell, tha freight tender upon its engine, and the gravel train tender back upon th first car in the rear of it. Here was the sceno of death. Six men were killed outright in this car, and four otheis fastened down by the broken timbers weie roasted to death, the car catching lire from the ov-r-t-irned stove and burning up before the stupefied survivors could comprehend the awful eituation ot their shrieking companions. Thrte men c leaped from the oar, and one of them said that tho lire could have been extinguished bad water been applied in time. Tne week itself was a ghastly sight At the side ct the car that was burned could be seen sitting amid the glowing embers, t wisted iron rods, and d d ashes -three grinning ekeletons, one si ting bolt upright, apparently peering into the tlamca that had smothered out his lite as well as those of his companions. When the wreck was cleared away it was discovered that twelve perrons had been injured and fourteen more were dead or missing. The bodies of ten of the dead have been recover d. Tho others are supposed to have been c ompletely consumed. Of tl.ose recovered only two could be positively identified.

" What was the cause of tho deficiency, and how was it managed?" was asked. "I cannot tell yon. Mr. John C.

He was bora in New Lisbon, Ohio, in 1806, and came to Detroit forty-nine years ago. He practiced law, became Collector of Internal Revenue, and some years ago filled the office of Police Justice. Mr., Harbaugh had been made famous all over the world by the Central Station sketches of "M. Quad," the humorist on the Detroit Free Preas, whose pen pictures of " His Honor" and " Bijah," were grotesque caricatures of Mr. Harbaugh and the venerable police doorman, Abijah Joy. Tho latter is still living here. Mr. Harbaugh became a mental wreck some years ago, and has since been in tho asylum. A Woman's Strange Dream.

Cyrus H. McCormlck. Cyrus Hall McCormick, the well-known millionaire and inventor, and proprietor of the famous McCormick reaper, died at bis home in Chicago on the 13th of May. He had been an invalid for two years past, from a partial paralysis of the lower limbs brought on by severe rheumatic troubles, nnd was compelled to remain at home. His mental powers remained unimpaired dating his enforced retirement from active work, and he never ceased to oversee and direct his vast business interests. His vitality and intellectual power remained strong np to within a few days of his death, when he complained of great weakness and inability to bear the strain on his mind of the management of his business. He took to his bed, and gradually grew weaker, until the physician in attendance gave up all hopes of rallying him, and the family were informed of the near approach of the end. He realized the fact himself, and spoke calmly of tho event, endeavoring to ease their sorrow with tender words of comfort. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family and a few intimate friends, hia last words showing an unshaken faith in the promises of a life everlasting. Cyrus H. McCormick was bom in Rockbridge County, Va,. Feb. 15, 1809, and was consequently 75 years old. His parents were of Scotch-Irish descent, and he inherited from his father an inventive turn of mind that did him great service while he was yet a young man. Born on a farm, he early saw that agriculture was not keeping pace with mechanics and manufactures in inventions for the relief of labor, and when IS years old ho began bis inventions for the improvement of farm work by constructing a ''cradle," which he used in the harvest field with success. His father had previously invented a reaper, but, failing to attain tho success hoped for, it was laid aside. The son observed the defects and patiently went to work to remedy them. In 1831 be achieved his aim and gave to the world the first practical reaping machine. He built it with his own hand, and teBted it in tho harvest field. Although successful in his attempt, he did not at once embark in tho manufacture, bnt kept adding improvements from time to time. Abont this period he became interested in the smelting of iron, and engaged in that business until reverses came npon him, and he removed to Cincinnati in 1844, where he made arrangements to manufacture the reaper. Two years later, discovering Chicago to . be a better field for the establishment of snob, a business, he at once began the work. In 1848 he made and sold 700 maohines, in the following year 1,500; since then the annual sales have regularly and rapidly increased nntil now not less than 50,000 are sold every year. The Hon. Beverdy Johnson, in an argument before the Commissioner of Patents in 1859. said that the McCormick reaper had already contributed an annual income to tho whole country of $55,060,000, which must increase through all time. The world at large has not been slow to honor Mr. McCormick for what he has done for agriculture. Medals and decorations have been bestowed on him by the crowned heads of Europe, and at every international world's fair ever held he was awarded superior honors for his inventions. He was the founder of the Preebytesian Theological Seminary of the Northwest,and at its inception bestowed $100,000 to endow a professorship in it, and from time to time, as occasion required, he increased his donations, so that they more than tripled the original gift. Recently he learned that the seminary required enlargement and houses for the professors, and gave $100,000 for the purpose. He gave to the Washington nnd Lee College, of Virginia, and few but himself know how many struggling churches, colleges, and schools are indebted to his generosity for means of maintenance. In view of his beneficence, and the worldwide reputation of his reaping-machine, perhaps no other name is more widely known than that of C. H. McCormick. Mr. McCormick was an active politician, and stood high in the councils of the Democratic party, to which he adhered. In 1872 he bought the Interior, the organ of the Presbyterian Church in the West, and has retained the ownership ever cince. The value of the estate left by the deceased is estimated in the neighborhood ot $20,000,000. Whatever the exact figures, he was one of the wealthiest if not the wealthiest men in Chicago. Charles O'Conor. The great jurist, Charles O'Conor, died in Nantucket, Mass., on the 12th of May, after a protracted illness. For moro than a week he had taken no nourishment whatever. His mind was clear to the last His dying words were simply "My God." Mr. O'Conor was born of Irish parents in New York City. His father came to this country near the beginning of the century, shortly before tho birth of the son, and was then in possession of much wealth. This he subsequently lost, and a consequence was that the son received a comparatively limited education. In addition to the ordinary branches of the primary schools, he obtained some instruction in Latin from his father, and also in French. In 1824 he was admitted to the bar, and almost at once entered upon a large, successful, profitable, and distinguished practice. The defects of education he overcame by a life of study. He devoted himself exclusively to the law, and during his fifty years of professional life resisted every appeal and inducement to engage in politics. For many years he was confessedly at the heed of the American bar. As early as 1829 he had taken distinguished rank as a lawyer in the New York courts. Since then he had been conspicuous before tho country for his ability. Eleven voars ago ho volunteered his services, in the interest ot public morals, to ?rosecnte tho municipal officers of New brk Citv and county, aaonsed with Tweed in conspiring to plunder the public. His services were all tho more valuable in this instance because the influence of his personal and professional character was almost irresistible. The only official position he ever held was the office of United States District Attorney of New York; this place he aooopted at the personal request of President Pioroe, but resigned it after a year's service. He was a member of the conventions which framed tho Constitutions of New York in 1846 snd in 1864. He was nn able constitutional lawyer. Mr. O'Conor was an intense Demo
crat on an questions 01 couurauomu interpretation. The doctrine of State sovereignty and State rights wbb often and ably discussed by him. In 1872 he was nominated for President by the antiGreoley Democrats, who held a convention in Louisville, and also by the Labor Reform Convention, which met In Philadelphia, but peremptorily de clincd to bo a candidate under any eiroumstanccs. His ambition was confined solely to his profession, where he was eminently succossf ul. He was a member of tho Romlin Catholic Church, and a regular communicant during nearly the whole of his life, nnd was considered tho ablest and leading layman of that denomination in tha United States. His personal life has been inch ns to win tho highest praise from the general public; his ability has shone more conspicuously because of the purity of his personal charaotor. His death is a loss to the American bar, a loss to the cause of high political and social morality, a loss to the State of New York, and to the country generally.
