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? Says tho Loss of His Toot
Was luo to Negligence.
George Lowery, who was seriously
hurt on the Lackawanna Valley liupld
Transit company's road, and who was
moved to the hospital. Is recovering
rapidly, and is able to tell the manner
In which the accident occurred. He
received injuries which cost him a foot
nnd for this the Transit company will
b asked to pay damages.
At the time It was not known ex
actly how he was hurt, and his condi
tion was such that he was nimble to tell
anything about the accident. 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.
He says also that he was not given
proper warning, and after the accident
was not properly cared for. Instead
of being placed In the car he was put
Upon the platform and at the company's
office was left out in the cold vestibule
while he should have been taken In.
It wbh a cold night and the exposure
nade his recovery more slow. After
nkdlcal attendance was obtained It
was seven minutes before nny pulsation
of the heart could be felt.

"Why did you leave Arkansas?"
asked the curious boy cf the man who
had tramped across the continent.-
"Why? Because the people of Arkan
sas are too stingy for a decent cnan to
live among." . .
"That so?"
"Well, I should say It was bo.. Why,
when I was down there 1 was ketched
taking a chicken. Tne men got around
me and some one said that, as It would
cost something for attorney's fees and
so forth to try me, they'd better save
expense by lynchln' me. I didn't mind
that so much. That's a custom of the
country down there, and we alius expect
It. But when they began callln' for a
rope an' It was discovered that nobody
had one. instead of goln' off an' buyln
one, what do you suppose they pro
posed to do?"
"What did they propose to do?"
"They proposed to take off my
breeehes, being the only clothes I had
that was strong enough to hold my
weight, and hang me with tnem. Just
think what an indecency that would
have been! It was a little more'n I
could stand, an' I says to em: 'Gentle
men.' says I, 'this country Is too mean
a one for me to stay in. If you let me
free I'll quit the state an' never come
back.' "
"So they let you go?"
"They did. Said that would save all
expense, Just the same."
