FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
The Afternoon Local for the Bay Goes
Over a Trestle.
Mail Agent Quimby Killed, and Sev
eral Others Injured—Three Cars
Badly Wrecked.
The worst accident that has yet happened
on any of the railroads in the vicinity of
this city occurred yesterday afternoon
about seven miles west of hero on the
California Pacific road. Tho regular 3:05
local train for San Francisco left tho city
on time, and was wrecked while crossing
trestle No. 147, near Webster Station.
Tho train was drawn by locomotive
No. 4, in charge of Engineer William i
Beldin, one of the most experienced and
careful engineers on the road. H. H.
Wells was tho conductor in charge. The
train was composed of a combined mail
and express car, a baggage car, parlor
car, smoker and three day coaches.
There wero about 140 persons on the
train, including trainmen. The parlor
car contained eight, the first coach fifty
or sixty, and the other two about thirty
each, with several in the smoker.
The train was going at an average rate'
of speed when it encountered a warped
rail, caused by the excessive heat. The
rails were all new and well braced. The
locomotive left the track and went bump
ing along over the trestle, when Engin
eer Beldin opened the throttle of his en
gine and pulled loose from the mail and
express car. This and the baggage car
went over the side of the trestle, turned a
half-somersault, and landed bottom-side
up, the fall

The parlor car next went over, end
lirst, the rear portion res-ting up against
tho trestle in such a manner as to prevent
the smoker trom going over, although it j
had started to fall, and careened over the
side of the trestle. The other two coaches,
although they left the track, remained on
the ties, as did tiie locomotive.
Instantly all \va> excitement and alarm,
and those who had not been injured scram
bled out to assist in recovering from the
wreck those who had been less fortunate.

did was to dispatch brakeman Edward

SUBURBAN TOUGHS.
A Gang That Should be Severely
Dealt With,
They Terrorized an Entire Neighbor
hood ou Sunday Night—Dis
graceful Scenes.
The vicinity of Twentieth and X streets
was the scene of most disgraceful rowdy
ism shortly after midnight on Sunday
night. There is a saloon on one of the
corners there, and the proprietor closed '
it at midnight.
He was sitting inside with one of tho I
car-drivers ou the O-street line, when a |
crowd of toughs, known as "The Brady \
Gang," knocked on the door and de-i
manded admission. The proprietor went !
to tho door and explained to the gang \
that he was not permitted to keep his j
place open after midnight, and declined j
to admit them.
The toughs then sefcupon the proprie
tor ami were beating him, when the car
driver hastened to his assistance. One of
the gang presented a pistol at the car
driver and drove him to the car-stables,
acro.-s the street.
Another of the car employes then has
tened over to the saloon man's aid, and
lie. too, was driven back at the muzzle of
a pistol.
In the meantime the unequal fight
went on, the proprietor of the saloon
holding his owu as well as he could
against the heavy odds until he suc
ceeded in getting out his pocket-knife.
Then he began slashing right and left,
and from the way in which his assailants
scattered he is satisfied that some of them i
bad wounds to be sewed up yesterday. I
During Sunday this same gang terror
ized the neighborhood in the vicinity of
Eighteenth and M streets, and also about j
Twentieth and O streets, where tbey I
« Bre lighting and committing all sorts of
j rowdyism.
There are two mounted policemen in
that section of tiie city, but so f_
known they did not make the discovery j
that these rowdies were on the war-path.
A telephone message was sent Irom
Gebert's, at Twentieth and O streets, to
tho Police station, but as there is no
officer kept there tor special duty, none
could be sent to the scene. Finally,
when one was secured he was detailed to
visit that locality, but whon ho got there
ang had gone and all was quiet.
One of the favorite haunts of these
toughs is the saloon at Eighteenth and M
streets, and early on Sunday evening two
. oi them had a rough-and-tumble fight in
; the sir. et there.
There seems to be no relief trom these
; suburl in outrages, but the citizens out
I that way say they will have peace, even
i if they have to tight for it.

STRENGTH AND BEAUTY.
The New Mercantiis Building in
Sacramento.
Information Concerning the Weiustoclc,
Lubin <fc Co.'s Building Given by
Expert H. S. Wood.
Siuce tho construction of the Wein
stock, Lubin A Co. building at Fourth
and X streets, in this city, began it has
liccn an object of interest, because of its
novel character, its architectural pecul
iarities and because of its great size, its
vast interior open space, and its many
exterior openings.
The character of such a building be
comes, therefore, ■ matter in which the
people are interested. The builders and
proprietors recognize that fact, and there
fore called in Wright & Sanders of San
Francisco, well-known architects, to
consult with their architect, W. H. Ham
ilton. They also \veat to what is
conceived to be the highest and best
authority in tho State regarding strength
in construction and materials, th ■ San
Francisco Bridge Company, and solicited
it to send an expert to occasionally ex
amine the building as it went u;>.
The Ke< oun-L nion, however, con
ceived that the public is independently
interested in knowing the exact facts,
since the public is to be invited to go into
the structure, and because in it are to be
engaged a large number of wage-earners
ol both sexes.
Yesterday, there fore, learning that 11.
S. Wood of the San Francisco Bridge
Company was in the >-ity, a representa
tive of the Record-Union called upon
him and put to him certain direct ques
tions calculated to draw out his views
fully regarding the building, and there
suit is given below.
11. S. Wood, C. E„ it should bo
prefaced, is the chief constructing and
; examining engineer of the San Francisco
Bridge Company, the largest engineering
and constructing concern west of the
Rocky Mountains. Mr. Wood came to
his present position of high trust from
j the Pennsylvania Railroad Company,
with which he received his training in
the structural department of that great
corporation. He was for four years also
lin charge of the bridge and depot rool
; construction department of that com
j pany. These tacts ascertained we
proceeded to question Mr. Wood.
''An- you familiar, Mr. Wood, with tho
construction of the building on the cor
ner of Fourth and X streets, which has
attracted so much attention because ofthe
novelty of its design */"
"I think I am."
14Will yon, in public interest, give us
your views concerning Ls strength and
general character?"
"Certainly. At intervals, by the Spec
ial request ofthe owners, I have been put
upon the duty of examining the structure.
I have given it three examinations dur
ing its erection. I have just gone over it
finally."
"Vim, of course, did so critically?''
"Yes, I examined all parts calculated
to support the weight ofthe building and
tin-.-(intents it is to hold. As the build
ing stands to-day, 1 can positively report
that there is no element of weaxness in
any of those parts of the structure which
are subject to considerable loading. As
said, 1 have in three examinations care
folly estimated the strain for each class of
materia] used, and have been aided in my
critical work by the k« n perception and
excessive caution of the members ofthe
firm erecting the building, whose con
stant presence and oversight bave not
oniy been carried into every technical de
tail suggested, but have also caused to be
added features which render doubly se
cure all the pari - concerning which there
migiit be i-\L-n the shadow ofa doubt."
'"Your examinations June been well
separated ?"
•,xi es, at widely separated periods dur
i ing the construction."
"Is the weight as much upon the pillars
! inside as upon the walls?"
'"Yes, fully as much upon interior as
exterior supports, The short lengths are
: cast-iron columns, and those of Longer
reach are tiie (amous Phoenix wrought-
I iron or steel columns, excelling all oth< rs
according to the exhaustive tests made
by the united state.. Government at
:\\ atertown, New ork."
"Well, now, Mr. Wood, we are sddress
| mc what you are saying to the general
j public: not for architects, builders, own
ers or engine* rs. but for the people to
v. horn this building is, you must confess,
a novelty and, therefore, calculated to
excite their curiosity. Now, then, what
are you prepared to say to the public as
an expert concerning the general charac
ter of the building and its stability?"
'•Well, in addition to what I have said—
the critical review of the stru< rural parts
1 have made, has also boon with a view
ito possible vibration by earthquakes,
which in this State are the most severe
and unforseen strains that could come
upon a building of such bold and effective
design. Thereof trusses wire arranged
particularly with la^ge dying brackets to
counteract any earthquake distortion, and
wiii carry ten limes the weight they are
j intended to carry. Then the iron lattice
girdi is on the level of the top gallery aro
designed to check any side bending of
the bighei columns from similar causes."
"How, -Mr. Wood, about the open
ing?"
"The distribution of the floor weight is
so largely on tiie interior columns that it
has permitted the use of large and Croqui ot
windows, which, with other architectural
features, make the building the most per
fectly lighted interior it has ever been my
fortune to observe."
"How about the exits?"
"Safety of the public in the matter of
direct and rapid exits, seems to have
been consulted with success, and it cer
tainty needs no word of mine to urge that
[Sacramento should congratulate herself
on the possession of a building whose
bold design, brilliant Lighting and con
venient arrangement, with its architect
ural beauty,-place it at the head of simi
lar buildings in the State. Let me add
thai the architect, William 11. Hamilton,
is entitled to high praise. He has every
reason to take pride in his achievement.''
"There is nothing more to ask, Mr.
Wood, you have probably exhaust. 1 the
subject."
"1 am willing to go into any detail that
Lrable, but believe I have given you
the general facts as I find them. '
