8 ff THE SCKANTON TBIUTITE FUTDAT MORNING. DECEMBER 20, 1893. CARBONDALE. WRECK ON THE ONTARIO. Two Engines Coino Together Head and Head at the May field Vaid. J ', A severe wiwk occurred on the On tario and Western railroad yesterday morning at Muy field yard, two engines coming together head and head. The two engines which figured In the wreck were No. 73, under Engineer Harvey, which was pulling the pay car. and 173, tinder Engineer Bates and Conduc t T Day. Wednesday the pay car went to Scrauton, and yesterday returned .to thl city. On board were Superintend ent R. li. Williams; Paymaster Draper and Assistant Paymaster Reilly. Be sides these were a conductor and brake mat. Engine No. 173 was pulling a train of light coal cars, and was run past the yard limit for the purpose of tucking into a switch. At the time thf rj was a heavy fog, which rendered objects a short distance away Indis tinct. This prevented the engineers of the two locomotives from seeing each ether until they were very close, and It was too lute to stop them. Fortunate ly the long train had been flowed up or the result would have been terrible. No one was seriously Injured, al though the people in the pay car re ceived a bad shaking up. They es caped, ho'.ever, with a few bad bruises. The engines are also somewhat dam aged, the pilots on both being smashed. No mis were derailed, though some were badly broken up. PRESIDENT HAXLON IN TOWN Will Carbondalo Kctnln Its I rnnchisc In ' tho State League ? Tresldent J. J. llanlon. of the Penn sylvania state league of base ball clubs. Is Jn.this city In order to find out whether Carbondalo will remain in the "aguo next season. There are several ,ther towns who want to enter the league, but Mr. Hanlon wonts us to remuln in the circuit and as the league is golnrr to hold a meeting soon he must know what Will be done before he leaves the place. There Is as yet no Certainty of a club Jn this city, as there seems to be no one who will take command of the club and ! assure Its success. If such a .person - could be found there are enough par ties Interested in the game to make the formation of the association a sure thing. Mr. Hanlon Is now calling on the cltl i Kens and presenting the matter to them. Some persons have already volunteered to help In the work If It is placed In Rood lyinils. If anything Is to be done It should be done at once. Manager Swift, who had charge of the team rep resenting this city last year, Is anxious to kov what Is to lie done, as he has received several offers from other cities who wish hi in to manage their team. Swift Is probably the best niunager In the league and If we should remain. In the league It la hoped that he will be secured. , WILL SUE THE COMPANY. Goorgo Lower?

However, he now says that the car ran him down befflre. he had any chance to get off the Wrack. He remembers being struck by-fhe car, but that Is nil as he was rendered unconscious by a severe blow on the head.
