The newest ticket saiken of as a possibil
ity of the annual meeting of the Baltimore
and Ohio stock holders next week is; Presi
lien I, Samuel Spencer: first vice president,
C. K. I-ord : third vice president, Orlando
Smith. This ticket is tvgar-tVd, it is said, by
the Baltimore and Ohio authorities all along
the line with very great favor and as one of
the strongest probabilities. Samuel Sjieiieer

more and Ohio. He has been with the Mad

years, most of which has been soiit in the
Baltimore and f hio service. He is recognia
isl as one of the foremost transportation
men of the ilay. C K. Lord is at present
gvtieral ptv;igiT ag. m. He is still a pouiig
man and ranks as one of the ablest passen
ger agents of the the country. Orlando
Smith is the preseiit third vine president and
has lieen iu charge of Trans-Ohio divisions
of the road. ' If this ticket is elected." said
a gentleman last night, " it will make a
number of changes in the next row or two
of uHieers below. II Captain Clements suc
isjswis to the second vitv-presideiicy, he will
likely be made general nuuiager. In this
event his position of manager of the Cis

Wild Animate Let Loom.
St. Lot'ts. Nov. 4. One of the most excit
ing scenes that ever oeetjrred in this or per
haps any other city, took place at the I'nion
depot between 3 and 4 o'clock this afternoon
and (or a time not only created tremetnlous
excitement, but tbe wildest kind of a ire
among the peiple present. t During the day a
special train of passenger and flat cars bear
ing John Robinson's in. oagerie and circus
people and their animals from Fort Scott,
Kan., came into the Union depot en route
to Cincinnati, where they are t winter.
About iialf-i-nst ." the t.im i.-iiietl out m
cross tiie bridge, and while parsing over the
" puzzle switch " in the depot yards a flat
car flew the track, followed by others, and
ran into a freight train on a side-track, de
molishing two or three cars and killing Geo.
Squire, a canvas man, and bwlly injuring
two other circus men named Fujler and
Isle. In the smash-up some of the animals'
cages on the flat ears were broken, and a
Bengal tiger, two lions, a leopard, a jaguar,
an ibex and a vulture escaped. The wildest
kind of a commotion followed. Depot offi
cials and policemen ran frantically als.ut
shouting warning, and there was a general
and quick stauifiede from the yards to the
streets beyond. The circus and depot men
then made search tor the animals. The
leopard was found crouched under a freight
car and an attempt was made to lasso him,
but it tailed and the animal rushed from cov
er, bit a man severe.')' in tbe leg ou his way
out, bounded into the ticket-unlce and then
juniied through a transom into the Superin
tendent's office. He was besieged by the cir
cus men and after severrl attenijits to cap
ture him ami two or three shots being fired
at him he was covered with a tarpaulin and
secured. One by one the other animals
were found, and after more or less trouble
were captured and relumed to their cages,
but it was not until tiie work was over that
the excitement was allayed.

Alleged Miraculous Cure.
Coat;., Mich.. Nov. 4. There has been
considerable excitement here over a so-called
miracle which occurred to Mrs. Andrew F.l
dridge, wife of a respectable man living for
many years in this city. In nearly her own
words the following is her version of the
the matter as given :
" I have been sick for years. Two years
ago this mouth I su.iered a stroke of paraly
sis of the entire right side, including both
extremities. For its days I was blind and
seechles. I was always a believer in the
Won! of Ood and tint He was willing and
able to heal my body. On Wednesday, the
l-'th in-t., alaliout li :W a. I called upon
l l.sl to either take me to himself or heal my
bodily infirmities, as was liest. I was lying
on my right side, and could not move over.
'""i made known to me that He was willing i
to save me then, and I at once repealed the j
verse trom liis Wont, vt nosiever tieiievetn
on me.' Ac aloud, aud sat up in my bed,
my husband suprting me. I arose and
walked. To God alone be the glory.
" My mind was tailing ; now it is as good
as ever. Since that dav I have not taken one
'fn-p of mislicine.aml am each day growing j
Mn.nger. and fully believe lam healed by '
thepower and goodness of G.sl alone. I
will praise him forever. Amen and amen." i
