GORY NEW YEAR.'

Frightful Collision jon the Grand Trunk Railroad.

Disasters In the States—Six Persons Drowned In Michigan and Four Jtar Pittsburg.

Tomosto, January 2.—On* of the most harrowing calamities that has happened in this neighborhood for a long time occurred here this morning on the Grand Trunk railroad. A suburban train left Union station at 6:40. A car attached was filled with employes of the bolt works who live in the city and are conveyed to their daily labor by this means, the train stopping for them opposite the works. After turning a curv* at Parkdale boundry, a freight train Was observed coming cityward, but the im petus of both trains was too much to allow the brakes to do their duty in time, and the result was a fearful smash-up, endingin ashocking tragedy,

Nineteen men employed at the^ bolt works are reported killed, and twenty or thirty wounded.

The conductor of the freight train George Barber, is said to be responsible for the accident, as he was running his train without orders. He has been arrested.

TOBONTO, January 2,—last accounts place the number of dead. at twentyseven. Several others are injured so badly that it is not expected they can recover.

The affair casts a gloom over the city. The wounded are lying in the hospital andeeveral doctors are giving them every attention

Eye witnesses describe the scene at the wreck as heart-rending in the extreme. The mutilated bodies, groans of the dying, and shrieks of the wounded, were enough to appal the strongest,

The newspaper offices are crowded with citizens eagerly awaiting bulle tins.

Among the killed, are S. Agate, W Kleefer, O. Spohn, A. Lynch, P. Mulli gan, £. White, Harrigan, J.

McDonald

J. feowlett, W. Herriss, O. Robinson and Cannington. Amongst the wounded in the hospital lying between life and death, are: W. Fitzgerald, R. Carruthers, H. O. Kehnan, Michael Kelly, W. Rogers, Fred Burnton. The last two cannot live. The doctors can not say how many will survive. Friends of the families are surround ing the hospital and* morgue and the scenes are of a most heartrending description. Several men killed leave wifes and families.

One of the most frightful railway accidents that ever occurred in Canada took place this morning at five minutes of seven. About fifteen minutes previous the suburban train, consisting of a dummy engine and_ two cars, on the Great Western division of the Grand Trunk railway, left Union station, having aboard about

Bixty

passengers,

chiefly employes ef the Boland iron works at Humber, residing in the city, who were going to their work. Each was happier than the other, and although the weather was severely cold and a gale blowing the snow against the car windows, the merry crowd did not heed it, as they told how they spent the New Year. On rounding a sharp curve, just before reaching the bolt works, the engineer saw the freight train coming thundering down the grade towards him. He reversed the engine, blew the warning and, with

the fireman, jumped for life. The conductor heard the warning, and shouting, "Jump, boys, for your lives," sprang into the snow. In a second there was a terrific crash The engine

the agonized sufferers rent

the air. Several poor fellows suffering untold agonies with limbs and bodies burnt to a crisp piteously implored those near them to pour water upon their scalded limbs, or put an end to their sufferings. Strongmen looked on appalled and many an eye was dimmed with tears, with every possible phase of disfigurement to be seen, limbs cut, bruised, mangled, half eaten away by fire, swollen to an enormous size by steam and water. No possible horror was left to the imagination. No more awful scene could be witnessed. Several hours elapsed before the poor fellows buried beneath the debris were taken out. A relief party of thirty or forty men were soon on the scene, and at once set to work, slowly and tenderly, to rescue the sufferers, and about 10 o'clock a carload of dead and injured was on its way to the city. On arriving at the Union station, the ambulance, station wagon and several cabs and„ 'busses, were in waitini A large crowd had gathere and as one after another of the dead and wounded were carried from the car to the conveyance many turned sick at the sight. The wounded men bore their sufferings with fortitude and jatience, a few groans being the only indication of their intense agony. The scene in the morgue beggars description. There fifteen bodies laid side by side in rows. In the opposite room mothers, sisters, fathers, brothers were .to be seen passing from body to body and with trembling hands lifting the coverlet and gazing on the faces of the dead. Now and again a cry of an guish would tell too plainly the discovery of some dear one carried off in the prime of manhood. At the hospital, on the arrival of the wounded the doctors immediately Bet to work sewing up the wounds and did all in

of the unfortunate men. One of the men, John Rowlett, died soon after arrival at the hospital. When found among the debris he spoke cheerfully, and asked to be allowed to walk. On looking down he cried, "Ob, God, my legs are off," and so they were, burnt off. Coroner Lynd empanelled a jury, who viewed the es and then adjourned till 2 o'clock, when they again met. Some evidence was taken and further adjourned made. Barber, the conductor of the freight train, was at once placed under arrest He admitted he got orders at Hamilton to run to Queen's Wharf, avoiding all regular trains. He

looked at the time table but forgot the surburban train on the list of regular trains. Hence the accident.

A Disaster to Steamboats. PITTSBCEO, Pa., January 2.—An accident occurred at Davis Island dam nine miles from the city at 2 o'clock this morning by which one man is known to have lost his life, while three others probably perished, as they are still missing. Shortly after midnight the tow-boats I. N. Bunton and John

Case left the city, with tows for lower ports. When Davis Island was

tows and swung against the south pier. Three coal boats sunk at once.. The Case drifted to the head of Ne*

The accident is attributed to neglect to have the government signal lighted. Signals are required on the lock wall and dam. If this precaution had not been neglected the pilots would have had no difficulty in holding their tows between the lights. As nothing has write to been heard of the missing men. it:is supposed they perished.

Six Lives Lost in Michigan.

KALAMAZOO, Mich., January 2.—The dam at the Huron mine, near Houghton, gave way before the torrent, destroying much property and washing away like straws the houseB of E. C. Raymond, E. S.

Cleaves

A Son, and

demolished a portion of the latter's foundry. It is supposed that Raymond, who is teller in the First National Bank of Houghton, his son and servant girl, Mrs. J. W- Raymond, who is the wife of the clerk of the Alloues mine, her son, and the watchman of the foundry—six in a-i, lost their lives, as they have not since been seen.

NOT GUIIiTY.

The Terdlet in tb« Case st the Imms Bond Trial.

St. LOTTIS, MO., January 2.—The Post-Dispatch's Hillsboro special says: Judge Phillips delivered long instruc tions to the jury in the Bond case this morning, after which the jury retired in charge of two deputy sheriffs.

The jury in the Bond case returned the following verdict a little before 8 o'clock to-night: "We, the Jury, find the defendants not guilty of the crime charged."

Judge Phillips stated before the verdict was read that no sign of approbation and dissent would be tolerated from the audience, and the reading, therefore, was received With silence, The defendants were congratulated by their friends. The feeling as to the verdict is divided. It is rumored during the early part of the night that a mob

of the freight train knockef the boiler left Litchfield a neighboring town, for

of the dummy clear through the first car, crushing the unfortunate passengers in every direction and pinning many to the floor. The impetus was so great the engine actually mounted the truck of the dummy which kept the rails and remained on the balance. The engineer of the freight train when he saw the collision was inevitable, sprang from the engine, but Thomas, the fireman, was killed instantly. To add to the horror of the scene the boiler of the dummy burst and the steam and boiling water caiued death and terrible injuries to the mangled and bleeding men. The fire, as if madened at the other agencies clutching so many victims, broke out and completed the sickening work of destruction. The shrieks, groans and heartrending cries for help from

the purpose of lynching, but so far they have failed to show up. The night is bitter cold, and very unfavorable for out door operations. The defendants remain with the jury, tonight in the court house. All is quiet at the present writing.

Bond Outrage Causes a lutaid*.

TAYLORSVILLE, 111., January 2.—Abar Bond, a well-to-do citizen of this place, aged fifty, and a cousin of Miss Emma Bond, committed suicide this evening by hanging in the loft of his barn. It is supposed he became temporarily insane from constant mental worry over the outrage on his cousin, and the trial of her alleged ravishers, now progressing at Hillsboro.

CARLISLE FOR SENATOR^

A Belief that tfie Bitter Contest in Ken tucky Will End in his Election.

FRANKFORT, Ky., January 1.—The United States senatorial contest is a most bitter one between Williams and Blackburn, and it can be set down that neither will be elected. It requires Bixty voteB to nominate, and Williams only claims sixty-three. This Blackburn's friends say he will not get. There is a strong undercurrent for John G. Carlisle, and he will be nominated by Blackburn withdrawing in his favor, probably|after the firat or second ballot. This Blackbnrn's adherents have already intimated he will do, though should the Democratic caucus decide on a secret ballot Carlisle will develop unexpected strength from the start, and will receive the nomination. The election of Carlisle will not inter-fere-with his duties as speaker, from the fact that he will not be sworn in as senator until March 4, 1885.

Chicago's Trade.

CHICAGO, January 2.—The morning papers print elaborately prepared reviews of the trade of this city for 1883, and the following is given as an approximation to the total figures. It includes only the first selling price in each department, second sales not being counted, though made by jobbers: Produce trade S 402,000,000 Wholesale 412,000,000 Manufactures 325,000,000

These three departments, however, overlap each other, especially the last two. A great many items have been counted twice, as material, manufactured here has been sold at wholesale by the manufacturer. Estimating for this doubling up, and deducting $89,000,000 gives the following: Total trade of 18S8 $1,050,000,000 Total trade in 1883 1,016,000,000
