A COLLISION AT SEA.
The Steamship Arizona Struck by
an Unknown Schoonsr
LoxpoN, Sept. 14.—The steamship
Arizona, of the Guion line, which left
New York on Saturday, Sept. 5, for
Liverpool, arrived yesterday at Queens-
town in a battered condition after a
petilous voyage across the Atlantic,
ly in the morning, while the Arizona
was steaming rapidly in a fog, an un-
known sailing vessel, believed to be a
large coasting schooner, collided with
the Arizona. The shock was very great,
and aroused the passengers from their
beds. For a time the greatest excite
ment reigned, when it was found that
the steamer was not, as many feared,
about to go to the bottom. we stem
of the schooner struck the Arizona port
quarter. Thirty feet of the rails of the
steamship’s deck were carried away
and a life boat smashed. The deck was
considerably damaged, and several
tes of the vessel's sides were badly
indented.
Search was made for the colliding
schooner, but not a sign cculd be seen
nor was a cry heard. The terrible
shock had apparently crushed the sail-
ing vessel in a twinkling and caused her
to founder. Part of the bowsprit of
the schooner remained on the Arizona's
deck, and other wreckage indicated the
fate of the unfortunate mariners,

“Sam'l of Posen ueld for the Mur.

Sax Fraxcisco, Sept. 12.—M. B, Cur-
tis, better known as ““Sam’l of Posen.”
the actor who is under arrest here on
the charge of having murdered Police
Officer Grant, asserts positively that he
had no pistol with which to shoot. His
condition 1s pitiable. He was maudlin
drunk when brought into the station.
and now that he has sobered up and
realizes the enormity of the offense with
which he is charged he seems st times
like a lunatic.
Two men across the street saw Curtis
and the officer have a short struggle in
front of the police station and then saw
the flash of a pistol.
A Family Tragedy.
AVELLING, Sept. 14.—A tragic event
took place here resulting in the death of
a leading member of the Italian no-
bility. Baron Enrico Bresciamorra, a
married man, 30 years of age, has been
arrested on a charge of wronging his
cousin. He had a preliminary hearing
in court and after some of the testimon
had been taken the case was adjourne
and the accused admitted to bail. As
he was leaving the court room a brother
of the young girl stepped forward and
drawing a revolver shot him twice in
the head, causing instant death. The
murder was arrested on the spot.

DENVER, Sept. 14,—Passenger train
No. 814, bound toward Denver on the
Graymont district of the Union Pacific
railway was wrecked yesterday morn-
ing about 11 o'clock near Beaver Brook
station and twenty-six pagsengers
were injured, five of whom will prob-
ably die.
he train was late and running very
rapidly when rounding a sharp curve,
down a fifteen foot embankment, It
was followed by the mail and two pas-
senger coaches, one of which turned
over twice before reaching the bottom.
The train was loaded with passengers,
many of whom were Knights of Pythias
delegates, who were returning from the
Knights of Pythias state convention
which was held at Aspen last week.
When the news reached Golden, Colo.,
a wrecking train was ordered out, and
was starting when Robert Pruin, an
employe of the road, attempted to board
the engine. In doing so his revolver
fell from his pocket, the hammer strik-
ing a stone, and the weapon was dis-
charged, the ball taking effect in the
man's neck, making a wound which
will result fatally.
It is not known exactly what caused
the wreck, but as the train was a nar-
row guage and the coaches very top
heavy it is thought the train vas run-
ning too rapidly for safety.
Death Came in an Odd Way.
JERSEY CIty, N. J., Sept. 14 —
One of the most peculiar accidents in
the record of railroad fatalities occurred
on the New Jersey Central railroad near
Jersey @ity. William Boag, aged 30, of
Greenville, N. J., was in the forward
end of one of the last cars, and stood
with four or five others. When the de-
pot had been left about a mile behind
the train was going at full speed around
a long curve. Another curved track
used exclusively for freight, comes close
to the passenger track at this point. As
the passenger train flew by the point
where the tracks are closest together it
passed a freight train going in the oppo-
site direction.
At the same ipstant a huge plank
from the freight train tore its way
through the end of the car. It made a
large hole through the outside wood-
work, smashed the window, carried
away the toilet room and struck Me
Boag on the side of the head, killing
him instantly in the presence of the af-
frighted passengers. The plank which
killed Mr. Boag was a big piece of pine
or hemlock, which had been detached
by the door of one of the freight cars,
which was swinging open.
Laborers Run Down by a Train.
Grasaow, Sept. 11.—A terrible acci-
dent, due to somebody's carelessness,
occurred here yesterday, A number of
railroad laborers were engaged in re-
pairing a railroad track along which a
number of trains were constantly pass-
ing. As usual in all such cases the
drivers of all passing engines had been
warned to keep a lookout for the la-
borers at work at the point referred to,
and to whistle when neacing it. This
warning seems not to have beeg given to
the driver of an express train, or else he
forgot his instructions. In any case the
express train dashed into the midst of
the working trackmen, killed five men
upon the spot and seriously injured a
number of others. The nsual official
investigation 1s in progress.
Mangled by a Locomotive,
NorroLK, Va., Sept. 4. George C.
White, of Portsmouth, was instantly
killed by a freight train on the Atlantic
and Danville railroad. His right leg
was cut off and the body so horribly
mangled that the remains were carried
to his home in a cloth.

the lamp, which exploded. The flames
instantly spread over the room. The
mother caught up her child and started
upstairs. The flames canght her dress,
Several men atigmpted to catch her,
but she rushed Into the street and fell

where she soon died of her injuries.
