COLLISION OS THE T. H. & I. R. R.
Two Tra'ns Badly Wrecked, bub Nobody Hint.
Conductors* Criminal Carelessness.
It appears that the Terre Haute & Indianapolis Railroad is coming in for a share of the disasters that have occurred on the rail of late. Friday night, as we have before stated, a train of coal flats was wrecked by coming in contact with a broken rail, near Bridgeport, about nine miles west of Indianapolis.
Saturday afternoon there was quite
report from

The cause of the collision was the disregard of time by Conductor Crogan, of the west bound train. C. C. has resigned
The Sleet Storm and its Results. About two o'clock A. M. to-day a sleet storm set in and by daylight the whole surface of the streets was so icy that pedestrianating" was almost suspended, or attended with great difficulty, if not danger. Many were the ludicrous positions assumed by those who were obliged to go out upon the sidewalks. We noticed one tall young man in particular. He became desperate, parly in the forenoon, and mouuted a street ear to traverse Slain street. He* was in search of items. When he thought he had discovered one, he attempted to get of! the car to note it down. The driver whipped up the mule as he (the y. m.) stepped from the platform. Simultaneously, one
a
commotion created at the office of President McKeen and those
of
Messrs. Boid,
Dispatcher, Robias, Master of Transportation, and other offices along the line. The cause of this
commotion
was
a
Greencastle
station and
the "Junction," two miles this side, that two freight trains were on the crack between the two points, both in motion, and nothing short of a miracle could prevent a collision. The anxiety and suspense of officials were int-enste for a short time. News was quickly received that the trains had collided. The twft trains were badly wrecked, and about a dozen smashed cars were lying in the ditph,and the track considerably torn up. Yet, strange to sa\', nobody was hurt, the train .men seeing their danger in the dim distance and jumping for dear life. Passenger trains were run up to the wreck on each side, and passengers transferred, so that there would be but little detention in travel. The track was entirely cleared in a short time, however.
OBiTUARY.
IIENRY SHERBURNE,
for many years an esteemed resident of Terre Haute, died at his residence, on North ^ifth street, last night.
Deceased was born at Troy, in the State of New Yurk, November 23, 1790, and came to Terre Haute in 1851, or thereabouts. For a long time he was engaged in the commission business, in fact so continued until feeble health disabled him from the active duties of life. He leaves a large family to mourn bis departure from among them, even at the ii-pe age of 74, after having attained more tban the proverbial three score years and ten. A wife and eight children survive the aged husband and father. Six of the children were sons and two daughters. Of the six sons, four are engaged in paying positions ou railroads.
ROBERT C. BARR,
brother of Wm. M. and T. H. Barr, of Terre Haute, himself a resident of Bowling Green, Clay county, though a former Terre Hautean, died yesterday morning at his home. Deceased was one of tha most respected Citizens of Clay county. His funeral will be preacheJ set the Asbury Church, and his remains w»!Pbe interred in the city cemetery to-morrow-afternoon. The Odd Fellows, of which. Order he was a member in high standing, will attend his remains to their last resting place in a body. The call will be foa-ud elsewhere in this paper.

It seems that the physicians have not yet learned how to treat the malady with any degree of success. Turkish baths wouldn't be a bad thing for it.
