It is over thii road that tlielnurienserquan titles of petroldnin.are,brongiii..,r. On Tuesday eveningsbout nine o'clock,a train consisting of six oil wars and two pas senger cars, reached the summit on its way to the junction. Here, by some cause 1113 yet unexplained, one of the oil tanks took fire. The passenger cars were at. once detached and the-brakes stopped them. Next, the oil cars were cut off,.and the locomotive, tender, and box carcontaining two valuable horses and two men passed - downthe road, the engineer supposing -that the brakeman on the oil - cars would arrest the connse-`of those, but what was his horror on looking back, to see the six carsin -pursuit of him down the 'grade - enveloped inflames. They not only pursued but overtook' Strik ing the box car with' Inconceivable force, knocking the horses and Men flat upon the floor, and yet almost , miraculously ,net throwing the engine from the track.

The fireman made one attempt to escape by jumping from the tender, but the engi neer restrained hint. Altogether the occur rence was a remarkable one, and in part re markable for this, that no lives were tost. The brakemen on the oil curs bad gene back to, the passenger cars, when the oil cars started. It was well they did.
