Clnolnnati Rtreatosrs Coin* Together and Several People Seriously Injured'—Four Men Kill.-d and a Train Wrecked. Fight. In n Boxcar With Tramps. Killed at a Picnic—Other Crime.. Cincinnati,-Aug. 12.—Late last night two electric ears collided at Fourth and Main streets, seriously injuring three , people and slightly- injuring others. The Fort Thomas cars from the east and the Price Hill cars from the west on Fourth street take the same track on Mitin street, and the collision was at I • this junction. The Fort Thomas car was demolished and the Price Hill cur badly damaged. The seriously injured ■ are: Ben K ram burg, left arm broken and body mashed. Albert Toberg, feet mashed and limbs Injured. !

Greenfield, 0., Aug. *l2. —The bridge across Paint creek, on the Ohio Southern railway near Bainbridge, gave way yesterday afternoon under a loaded I freight train bound north. The bridge, I engine and 30 loaded cars all went i into the creek, taking -with them Engineer Clint Radcliff, Fireman Bowser, Conductor George Henry and Brakeman Thomas Byers, who were buried under the wreck. The water is 15 feet deep at that place and the bodies of the dead trainmen cannot be recovered until the wreck is removed. The engine jumped the track on the bride from some unknown cause. The bodies of Conductor George Henry •and Brakeman Thomas Byers . were recovered late last night. Among the lost freight were 10 thoroughbred horses enronte to the Springfield races ; The loss is over $50,000. FIGHT IN A BOXCAR. Three Tramp* A I tempt to Hohl Up the ■_ Same Number of Stonecut ter*. Ashtabula, 0., Aug. 12.—Six men i had a desperate battle in a boxcar between Erie, Pa., and. this place Saturday night. Three stonecutters, H. Eastlick, Bert Smith and John Meinhart, boarded the train at Erie to come to Ashtabula. At a water tank three tramps entered the car. When the train had got under way again two of the tramps drew revolvers and asked the men to haud over what money they had. Smith had a revolver and showed fight. In an instant a battle between i him and the two tramps was in pro- ‘ gross. Eastlick was shot through the | groin, Smith received a wound in the : neck and one of the tramps had a bullet through his head. Upon the arrival . of the train hero the wounded, men were cared for. The tramp is in a critical condition. Picnic Endn With a Killing. Scottdale, Pa., Aug. 12. —The Iron workers’ picnic at Ellsworth park was broken up by a murder late Saturday night. John Gallagher of Everson stabbed John Welsh of this place in the neck, severing the jugular vein aud causing death in a few minutes. Gallagher, who had been a non-union worker during the big strike last year, was being chased out of the grounds by the crowd, when he turned and stabbed Welsh, who was nearest to him. He made his escape. Strack by the Train. Syracuse, N. Y., Aug. 12.—A train struck a buggy containing James M. Northrop, his wife aud 4-year-old child at the the Marsh road crossing yesterday, fatally injuring Mrs. Northrop and seriously injuring both of the other members of the party. Mr. Northrop was driving across the track at one of the most dangerous crossings in the city and did not notice the approach of the train. His carriage was demolished and all of the party were thrown 50 feet. • > Will Manage to Try Him. Nashville, Aug. 11.—Zeke Bryant, who deliberately killed a guard at the Kingston convict camp on June 17 and escaped, has been recaptured and will be taken to the main prison. The murder was a particularly atrocious one, as the murdered guard had been exceedingly kind to Bryant. The case raises a nice question, and it is not known whether he can be tried for murder, as he is already a convict. Maimed by a Negro. i Kalamazoo, Mich., Aug. 12. —Simon and Edward Kastead. father and son, were frightfully hacked and stabbed by William Rose, a burly negro, in this city last night while trying to protect three girls whom Rose "was trying to overtake on a lonely street. His victims will probably be crippled for life. WELDING COPPER TO STEEL. Three Ironworkers Claim to Have Discovered a Lost Art. Pittsburg, Aug. 12.—George Cromley, Cornelius Shay and John Ryan, iron and steelworkers, have discovered the lost art of welding copper to iron or steel. They show several samples of these metals perfectly welded. The last record history gives of these metals having been welded was in Scandauavia 500 years B. C. - The value of the discovery comes in the fact that copper has greater resistance to the action of salt water thin any other metal. The Carnegie company has offered the men a fixed price for the secret. A shop has been fitted up for the mon at the Homestead plant,, where they propose to weld a plate of copper to an ingot of nickel |teel armorplate, The Carnegie company hopes to be able to cover all arinorplatesior tho bighattieships with copper.

And here the roses grew That threw a kiss to every man That voyaged with the crow. Our silken sails in lazy folds Drooped in tho breathless breeze. As o’er a Hold of marigolds Our eyes swam o’er the seas, While here the eddies lisped and purled Around the island's riin, And up from out tho underwold Wo Haw the mermen swim. And it was dawn and middle day And midnight—for tho moon On silver rounds across the bay Had climbed the skies of June, And hero tbo glowing, glorious king Os day-ruled o'er tbo realm, With stars of midnight glittering About his diadem. The seagull reeled on languid wing In circles round the mast; We heard the songs tho sirens sing As wo wont sailing past. And up and down tho golden sands A thousand fairy throngs Flung at us from their flashing hands Tho echoes of their songs. —James Whitcomb Riley. PRINTING BY TELEGRAPH. An Electrical Typewriter That Transmits Printed Characters. The printing telegraph, though a device of comparatively recent development, has been the subject of ceaseless investigation, and practical workers in electricity have directed their whole attention in some instances to the transmission of messages and the recording of them in plain Roman characters. Its advantages are simply those of an electrical typewriter, by means of which the message is printed in the presence of the transmitting operator in page form, and a duplicate of the same printed at all the receiving stations on the line, whether it - be a long or short circuit. A single transmission prints it simultaneously in page form ready for the compositor’s case in all, the newspaper offices of many cities. It is said to differ materially from all other known means of telegraphy in one essential ’particular. In it the impulses move the instruments, whereas in other systems the instruments move the impulse—that is to say, the-transmitter of tie message is caused to run by a separate power. No combination of electrical impulse or currents is employed. An even succession of dots or impulses, which operate the polarized relay armature at the receiving station, places the revolving type wheel in the required position, when the local mechanism causes the letter to bo printed. The apparent impossibility of transmitting printed characters or 1,000 miles over a single wire at once presents itself to the mind, and it is overcome in this system, it is asserted, in a very simple way. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by a certain number of impulses, which revolve the type wheel to the required position, when the letters are struck by the local mallet. Fourteen impulses represent the entire alphabet, making a complete revolution of the type wheel, which may bo turned 200 revolutions per minute, thus securing very rapid printing. Its advantage also is that of absolute secrecy as a means of communication. The advantage of the printing telegraph for the transmission of news to the newspaper offices is unquestionably a subject commanding attention on the part of progressive proprietors. —Paper and Press.

Y.,Aug. 12.—George Sanford Price, a well known ex-teniper-anc.e lecturer who fled from Goshen 10 years ago to escape arrest for forgery, returned Friday night and delivered himself up.

Although there was no warrant against him, he agreed to wait until the district attorney could be seen., He broke down completely, aud remained in his room in a hotel" at Goshen until removed to prison. During his absence Price says he has been in constant fear of arrest. He went through Canada and the western states to New Mexico. He spent five year# on a ranch in Nebraska, but fled one- night on the arrival of a stranger, although he was not followed. He says that he has eluded detectives at every turn.
