Miscellaneous News. CUT INTO I.ITTLF IMFCFS. Frlghtftil Catastrophe on the Frio Railroad. NEW YORK, July 21.—A terrible ac; cidont occurred on the Etle railroad be tween Allendale audllohokus this fore noon. It was evidently the result of neglect and caused the doath of fifteen men. A gang of Italians were at woik ballasting on the railroad a little dis tance from a sharp curve about three fourths of a mile above Ilohokus. Tho Chicago express, which was due an hour before, had not arrived, and these men whose foreman should have given a warning whistle when the tram was approaching the sharp curve, were busy at work unconscious ot the terrible fato which was in store for them. Train No. 12, tho express which was due an hour prtvioas, rushed round the curye before the men had the slightest warning, .and dashed through them Killing twelve on tho spot and w mill ing many others. The shrieks of tho victims was heartrending, and v. hen the train slowed up tho tracks pre sented the sickening sight of being cov ered with mangled bodies, the rails be ing spattered with blood and broken limbs, and piece? of ragged flesh bcii g scattered in all directions. Some of the bodies were mangled be yond description and crushed out of all semblance to humanity. To most of the victims death must have come instanta neously, but some of them appeared to be yet quivering and life ebbing away when the train was brought to a stand still. Mr. W. L. Hudson, a passenger which was on n local train behind the Chicago express, in conversation with a reporter, described the scene as oi e the of most sickeuing that could be wit- j nesaed. "Along tho tracks," he said "were arms, legs, trunks, and other parts of , bodies ; and tracks for a long distance were slippery with blood. The disas ter took place with such appaliug sud denness that men did not know till the traiu was down on them. The conduc- i tor of the train on which I rode said I that the traiu hands of the express were not to blame, lie believed the f foreman of the gang was responsible for the disaster by neglecting to give warning. A train was op on its way from New York, and the Italians had all crowded over the down track. Many of them had their backs turned, and all were ignorant of the coming of the big en-j giue which drew the Chicago express. ; Suddenly the express, which was be* I hind time swept around tlio curve and dashed into the •** ir p It literally mow*-' mtm • _ j,, w ,,y ttrollilli . iiDlortuuatea light atiil leit ..og legs and arms and heads off and grinding flesh into the roadbed for two or three hundred feet. So fierce was the shock that, although the engine struck nothing but human beings, the powerful cowcatcher was torn, twisted and broken into pieces. Some of the Italians were crowded in against tire rocks, a very nairow space, and crouched down in terror. The engineer of the express reversed his engiue and was coming to a stop when the passengers told him to go v head. Looking back they saw the un injured Italians acting like maniacs. They were yelling, gesticulating and tearing their clothes. Some were kneel ing and others dashing about in the middle of the ghastly pile of maucled bodies. When they saw* the train stop ping they made a rush for it and had they reached it undoubtedly the en gineer, firemen and conductor would have been murdered. For this reason it was deemed best to go on to Jersey City, where the engineer and conduc tor were closeted with the oilicers of the road and away from where tl.ey • could be interviewed. Passengers on the the following train had an awful sight when they reached the scene. All along the track were pieces of flesh, legs, arms, hands and head 3, while the roadbed was a mass of of blood. Here and there scattered were pieces of red handkerchiefs, trousers, coats and hats. Those of the Italians who escaped with their lives had dis appeared. Some of them took to the woods and others fled toward Ilohokus. It is now believed many of them aie demented, the awful suddenness of the slaughter and the deadly work of the big engine crazing them. It is impossi ble to giye their names,for tliey like other gangs of their countrymen emplyed on similar work are known not by names but by numbers. The engineer of the train in a state ment made when he flrst reached New Jersey City and which was veri fied by a number of passengers, says before he reached the curve he blew a warning whistle, not knowing, how eyer, that any people were on the track. The moment his train had turned the curve, he saw the Italians huddled like a flock of sheep on the very track his engine was on. They had got there to avoid a train coming from New York city, and had their backs turned to the express. He tried bard to stop his train, but no human power could have done so in time to avoid the killing of the men. The engiue he says mowed them down as a scythe cuts grass, and their maugled bodies were thrown in all directions. The conductor did not know of what had happened until the train began to slow up. Passengers on the following trains counted fifteen bodies and other parte of other bodies. It is not know how many ware killed,but it is thouhc that manymore than fifteen met death. It is also not known whether the foreman escaped or was killed, and it will be necessary to find the men who fled he fore the actual number can bo ascer tained. Nearly all those who escaped with their lives are wounded, but Low seriously no one can yet tell. The blaine, so far as can be learned, for this terrible slaughter rests upon the foreman of the gang, for the com ! pany ofllceils say it was his duty to watch for traius and get his men out of the way of danger, lie failed, it would appear, so to do- a d the result is this frightful accident. It Is thought that his attention was so wholly engrossed in the advancing train going out that , lie did not IOOK in the opposite direc tion. The noiso of the other, too, it is ■ believed,drownodthonoise of the express andtbus left him in ignorance of its ap proach. lie gathered the unfortunate Italians ou the track where they were safe from one train, only to place them in the path of certain deathon the track along which was tearing the express train. The company will make a rigid in vestigation into the accident and en deavor to place the responsibility upon those to whom it belongs. There will also be a coroner's inquest held and as many witnesses as can be reached will be compelled to tell what they know of the matter. Ills SIN DAY OKI'. A liny With n ("Jilnoso in Moll ' St reet. Citing Look is a dude, and, it is su perfluous to add, a he washerwoman, lie engineers a laundry in Jersey City, and, though cheap white labor is now j undermining his trade by doing up eol i lars at a cent am! a half, while the high j priced Chim so still stick to two cents, ; lie is comfortably off. The Chinamen 111 this country have taken the places of men aboard the whale skips of old. They workday and niglit in 'watches,' one man turning in to a bunk when another rolls out. By conscientiously rolling in and out day and night, charging two cents for col lars and living on live cents' worth of beef and twenty cents' worth of vege tables six days in the week, they are nearly all well to do. They would be j richer it there was no Sunday, but on I Sundays they all gamble and drink and j dissipate in every way known to us and in several ways that we don't care to know, and that reduces the profits and prevents their being really* rich enough to buy our aldermen and senators and become of political importance. It was Sunday. Chiug Lock put a clean shirt into a coat—both coat and shirt being exactly the same in size and shape, but the shirt being of cotton, while the coat was of the most Orien tally dudesque lavender colored silk, lie had previously put on a pair of drawers that ended in such a llare of linen that ho swaddled his feet in it as wo do in our socks. Then he had don ned his white soled, turned u" *" aud his $4 misfit trousor® suoes what hats and it, is strange able to be- Chinamen are xe> " .j . Where they get them and ..., are among the Celestial mysteries, j Once in all his clothes, he performed a simple act that showed that the Chi nese can quickly alter a national cus tutn, even when it is twenty centuries old. lie did this by curling up liis pig tail 011 the back of liis bead. The San Francisco gamins had not jingled these human be'l ropes for more than three ! months, when every Chinaman on the | continent began to do up his liair, and thus revolutionized an ancient custom as quickly as the most conservative Jerseyman takes to rye when lie finds he can't get apple. CARRYING HIS CASII. Ching Look took $-00 with him as Le started out for New York—s7oo sewed in his undershirt and SIOO in his breeches pocket. It was all he had in the world, and represented live years' woik and the swapping of t wo.lauiulries as Will as the wreckage of 200 Sundays in Mott street. Every Chinaman car ries his money in this way, or else puts it into his trunk. As young Capt.Mac- Cullagh remarked the other day : 'The crooks think they are very clever, but the Chinese trunk isasuap'they haven't got on to yet." Cliing Look pattered on board tlie ferry-boat, and softly sped through the New York streets toward Mott street, the Chinatown of Gotham. To cela brate the holiday he bought a fifteen cent cigar in a showy tobacco store on Cortlandt street. Half a block further on a tall and languid man in a red shirt reached out as he passed Ching Look, took the cigar from the Chinaman's mouth, thanked him, put it in his own mouth and went on, almost without stopping. Ching Look did not pause, either. In fact, he walked the more rapidly. But he kept his face so thoroughly under control that if you would have seen him when the man took his cigar you might have supposed he bought the weed on purpose to have that Happen. Twenty minutes later lie was in Chi natown, reading tlie Chinese morniug paper. This Oriental sheet is a most curious periodical. It consists of a lit tle piece of the side of a house in Mott street,on the bricks or which are posted all the reports of news and all the ad vertisements of the Chinese colony, on red paper,badly lettered with India ink. Every Chinaman who has anything to say or to sell contributes to this queer paper and publishes his contribution with a paste pot. Ching Look read of all the laundries then to let, and of all the Chinamen who wanted laundries, aud of culls to meetings,announcements of gambling games, and, in short, all the news of the day. His enjoyment of the mental repast was interrupted by a slight adventure. A ragged lad, of for midable face and breadth of shoulders, swaggared up to him, shoeblacking box in hand, and pointed to Ching's shoes. Ching looked to see what he had point ed at, and the lad 'pasted him,' as he would term it, with a quid of tobacco, It was deftly done, without exciting the Chinaman's suspicion beforehand in the least, and so thoroughly that Ching Look imagined one eye burned out while half his face was discolored. The Chinaman meekly wiped his face, and the bootblack swaggered off with a grin. 'l'ye got no use for ye,' said the lad over his shoulder. IK TOM J.EE'S CELLAit Ching dropped down into Torn Leo's cellar, and, with a face as immobile as a musk, told what had befallen him to a dozen Chinamen before and behind the counters, all with faces possessive of the emotional aspect of pumpkins. Eight of them grunted, and the ninth took up a roll of padded silk and poured tea out of it into a cup and handed it to Ching. The padded silk had buried in it (to keep hot) a teapot. Chin# sat down and drank, and developed a twinkle of happiness in his leather face. There were no Caucasians there to hurt him, and, on the other hand, Chinamen kept dropping in to buy dried chickens, dried llsh, dried goose, dried eels, dried potatoes, dried rice, dried fruit, dried bay leaves, dried tea leaves and wot opium—all imported from China, and all obtainable here (except the tea and opium) in better condition and at less cost. Those who Knew Cliing very well called him a damly and joked him about his clothes, for ho was more ex pensively dressed than any of them,and he was younger and bettor looking. They asked him if he had come to set) the girls, and he replied .• 'No; to gam tile.' A little group formed and drop ped into a cellar near by. Chiug said he had about S2O to lose. Ho and his comrades gathered around a table marked off with two chalk lines at right angles to one another, so that the surface was divided into four quar ters. The proprietor brought out a lot of bits of ivory in a basket, the others all got into chairs on their toes and sat upon their heels, and the game of fan tan began. Ching lost steadily, and in the midst of his losings gave a crisp bill to a woo begone Chinaman who came in and told of a long illness and the consumption of all his savings. All the other Chinamen gave liberally, as is their custom, and the recipient looked yearningly at the fan tan table, but managed to withdraw without Yielding to the strongest instinct of his race by risking his new gotteu money on the board.—X 1".

It is one of the peculiarties. o£ his speech, and the chief one by which an eastern man is detected almost anywhere be yond New York.

It hud been tin long, weary years since I last met Jay Gould until 1 called upon him yesterday to renew tlio ab quaintance and discuss the happy past. Ton years of patient toil and earnest endeavor on my part, ton years or phil anthropy on his, have been llled away in the grim and greedy heretofore. Both of us have changed in that time, though Jay has changed more than I have. Perhaps that is liecause he has been thrown more in contact with change than 1 have. Still, I have changed n good deal in those years,for when L called at Irving ton yesterday Mr. Gould did not re member Hie. Neither did the watchful but overestimated dog in the front yard. Carefully concealing the fact that I had any business relations with the press,l gave my card to the person who does chores for Mr. Gould, and, apolo gizing for not having dropped in before, 1 took a seat in the spare room to wait for the great railroad magnate. '1 lielieve that I have never had the pleasure of meeting you before, sir,' said the great railroad swullower and amateur philanthropist, with a tinge of railroad irony. 'Yes, sir, we met some ten years ago,' said I, lightly running my lingers over the koys of the piano in order to show him that 1 was accustomed to the sight of a piano. '1 was then working in tlio rolling mill at Laramie City, NVyo., and you came to visit the mill, which was then operated by the Union Pacific Railroad company. You do not re member me because 1 have purchased a different pair of trousers since i saw you, aud the cane widen I wear this season changes my whole 'appearance also. 1 reruember you, however, veiy much.' 'Well, if we grant all that, Mr. Nye, will you excuse me for asking you to what 1 am indebted for tltia call T 'Well, Mr. Gould,* said I, rising to my full height and putting my soft hat on the brow of tlio Venus de Milo,after which I seated myself opposite him in a dogago western way, 'you are indebt ed to me for this call. That's what you're indebted to. But we will let that i KISS. Wo are not here to talk a bout indebtedness, Jay. If you are '".Vsy you needn't return this call till next winter. But I am here just to convetse in a quiet way, as between man and man. To talk over the past, to ask you bow jour conduct is and to inquire It 1 can do you any good in any way whatever. This is no time to sjeak pieces and ask in a gramatical way, 'to what you are indebted for this call.' My main object in coming up here was to take you by the hand and ask you bow your memory is this spring? Judg ing from what I could hear, I was led to believe that it was a little inclined to be sluggish and astrophied days and to keep you awake nights. Is that so, Jay V 'So, sir; that is not so.' 'Very well, then 1 have been misled by the reports in the pajnirs, nnd 1 aut glad it tis all a mistake. Now. one thing more before I go. Did it ever occur to you that while you and your family are all out in your yacht togeth er some day, a sudden squall, a juick lurctt of the lee scuppers, a tremulous movement of the main brace, a shudder of the spring boom might occur aud all be over ?' 'Yes, sir. I have often thought ot it, and of course such a thing might hap pen at any time ; but you forget that while \vc are out on the bio.td and boundless ocean we enjoy ourselves. We are free. People with morbid curi osity cannot come and call on in. We cannot get the daily ttewspajiers, and we do not have to meet low, vulgar t>eo plo who pay their debts and perspire.' 'Of course, that Is one view to take pf it; but that is only a selfish view. Sup posing that you have made no provision for the future in case of accident. Wocld it not be well for you to name some one outside of your own family to Lake up tins great burden which ii now weighing you down—this money which you say yourself has made a slave of you—and look out for It ?' 'lf you have not thoroughly cousld ered this matter I wish you would do so at an early date. I have in my mind's eye Just such a man as you need. Ilis shoulders are well fitted for a burden of this kind, and he would pick it up cheerfully at any time you see fit to lay it down. I will give you his address.' fThank you,' said Mr. Gould, as the thermometer in the room suddenly (ro/.e up and burst with a loud report. 'And now, if you will excuse me from offsetting my time, which is worth SSOO a minute, against yours, whtph 1 judge to be worth about $1 per week, I will bid you good morning.' ile then held the door open for me, and short l v after that I came away. There were three reasons why 1 did not remain, but the principal reason was that 1 did ucl thjpk he wanted me to do so. And so I came away and left him. There was little else that I could say after that, It is not the first time that a western man lias been treated witii considera tion in liis own section, only to be frowned upon and frozen when he meets the same man in New York. Mr. Gould Is below the medium height, and is likely to remain so through life. Ilis countenance wears a crafty expression, and yet he allowed hiraseir to be April fooled by a genial party of gentlemen from Boston, who 3alted tfie ceptral branch of the Union Pacific railroad by holding back all tlip freight for two weeks in order to have it on the road while Jay was examining the property. Jay Cjould would attract very littio attention here on thp streets, but hp would certainly be looked upon with suspicion in Paradise. A man who would fail to remember that he had $7,000,000 that belonged to the Erie road,but who does not forget to remem ber whenever he paid his own hotel bills at Washington, is the kind of a roan who would pull up and pawn the pave ments of Paradise within thirty days after he got there. After looking over the aboye state ment carefully, 1 feel called upon, in justice to myself, to state that I>r. liurcliurd did not a.HHist me in con- HII noting tlio l.wst M-IIU-IICC. I do not wisli to crush capital witii labor, or to further intensify tlio feel ing which already exists between the two, for I am a land holder and tax payer myself, but I say that the man who never mixea up with the common poopte unless he is summoned to explain something and. shake the moths out of his memory will some day, when the grass grows green over his grave, Had himself confronted by the same kiml of a memory on the part of mankind. Ido not say nil this because I was treated iu HII off hand manner by Mr. Gould, but because I think it ought to bo said. As 1 situi before, Jay Gould is consid erably below the medium height, and I aur not going to take it back. lie is it man who will someday sit out on the corner of anew laid planet with his little pink, railroad maps on his knee, and ask, 'Where am I ?' and the echoes from every imistv corner of miasuiatio oblivion will take up the question and refer it to the judiciary committee; but it will curl up and die like the minority report against u big railroad land grant.— A'. )'.
