CRASH ON THE RAIL.
Twelve PersonB Injured in a Col
lision in Brooklyn.
A Long: Island R.R. Engine Runs
Into a Rapid Transit Train.
Two Car Thrown from tho Track and
Ilndlr Droken Up Passengers Impris
oned In llio Wreck The Unglnccrs of
Iloth Train Hurt How Ifao Crah Oo
carred Travel Delnyed Four Hour.
A collision occurred on tho Long Island
Railroad, near tho Ralph avonuo station, on
Atlantic avonuo, juBt after 7 o'clock this
morning.
So far as is known twolve persons wero in
jured. No one was killed.
That such is the case is a miraclo, as both
trains were pretty well filled at tho time.
The accident was duo to tho slippery con
dition of tho rails.
Engino No. 5, of tho rapid transit branch
of tho system, which runs from tho FlatbuBh
avonuo station to East Now York, had just
left tho ltalph avonuo station, with, threo cars,
on its way down.
It was being closely followed by engino
No. 73, with eight cars, which was coming
in from Long Island.
As a rule tho Long Island trains do not
stop after leaving East Now York until thoy
reach the Flatbush avenue station, which is
the Brooklyn terminus of the road. Tho
rapid transit trains stop at all the interme
diate stations botween these two points.
After tho train drawn by engine No. 5 had
pulled away from tho station Engino 73 in
creased its speed, having slowed up so as not
to run tho other train down when it stopped
at tho station. Tho track ut this point is a
vory heavy down grade.
Both trains had gone but a short distance
when tho Long Island train began to gain
much speed. In a few minutes she was on
top of the other.
With a crash tho ponderous locoinotlvo
dashed into tho rear car of tho rapid transit
train, which in turn smashed into the car
ahead of it. Tho shock threw both cars from
tho track, badly wrecking them.
A number of people rushed to tho assist
ance of tho imprisoned passengers.
Inafewminutos Oeorgo Carney, tho fire
man of Engino No. 5, was helped out from
his cabooso. Ho was injured about tho head.
Edward Kelly, of 12 Colombia place, nnd
his left hip injured.
William S. Woods, of Farmingdalo, L. I.,
had his face injured.
William Grath, of tho Twelfth Police Pre
cinct, rocoived injuries to hoadand shoulder.
Thoy wero all taken to their homes. Sev
eral othor passongcrs woro slightly injured,
but thoy left for thoir homes before their
names could be ascertained.
Travol was delayed for almost four hours.
WILLIAM WEBBER'S MILLIONS.
IIo Prove III Title to SIxty-alx Acre of
Laud In the Heart ol New York City.
IBPICI1L TO TnEWOBLD.1
Doveb. N. H., Deo. 27. Dr. W.W. Webber,
ft painter by trado, who has also had consid
erable experience as a healing physician,
made it public this forenoon that the claim
of his father, William Webber, as one of the
heirs to a plot of land of sixty-six acres, lo
cated in Now York City south of Canal street,
has been proved.
Said plot of land is now studded with mas
sive blocks of buildings. It was bought in
1C30 by Wilfred Webber, of Holland, who
settled on Manhattan Island.
It is known that in 1G74 Mr. Wobbor
leased the land referred to, to a kinsman,
Wilfred Wobbor, jr., for 200 years. Dr.
Webber's father is tho Beventh generation of
Webber, sr., who originally owned tho land.
On the expiration of tho leaso in 1874 the
land naturally rcu erted to tho descendants
of the original Wilfred Wobber.
For n fow years past William Webber and
other descendants liuvo been busily engaged
in proving thai they woro diroct descendants
of tho first mvnor.
Now that it is proved there will be rt meet
ing of hoirs in Now York City, Jan. 20, to
complete arrangements for gotting possession
of this property, valued at 20,000,000.

and tho following aro tho articles of agree
ment :

Leakdkh niCHAKDSON, Witness.
Tho plnco agreed upon is kept secret for
tho presont, and tho proposed fight is prac
tically a "finish" content, as both men,
under tho QueonBbcrry rules agreed upon,
will bo pushed to their utmost to last
through.
McCaffrey is tho heavier of tho two, but
Dempsoy's record of battles won has never
bren broken, and there is much interest in
sporting circles over tho coming event. Mc
Caffrey goes ut once to Philadelphia to train,
and Dempsev repairs to ltockaway for tho

In anticipation of the annual promenado
ooncert of the Produce Exchange the big
trading hall has been elaborately and hand
somely draped during tho Christmas interval
and presented a gay, festive appearance to
the brokers when they came upon the floor

The artistic arrangement of the decorations
was universally admired and praised.
The ceiling was ornamented with long
lines of red, white and blue streamers radiat
ing from two central points and looped up at
tho sides of the room.
The two rows of pillars extending down
both sides of the hall were almost hidden
from view behind draperios of gayly colored
banners and flags of different nations, while

rated with brilliant colored hangings.
It is proposed to mako the ornamentation
of the hall still moro elaborate before the
night of the boll.

THE 1I0NDS ARE HIDDEN IN EGYPT.
Young IHcNrnlly Una Not Upturned the
Htolen Hrcurltten to tbo Hunk.
isracitati to tb woat.D.1
Sioo, Mo., Doo. 27.--H turns out that the
rumors that tho securities stolon by Mo
Meally bavo been returned to the bonk aro
without foundation.
It is now stated on good authority that all
tho seeurttiosand Government bonds taken by
the defaulter urn hidden in Cairo, Egypt.
Tho find, knowledge of McNeally's whero
abouts was obtained last month, when his
brother rocoived a letter from Egypt in
Frank's handwriting.
Tho writer stated that Mb solo desire was to
have tho bunk regain possession of
she missing securities. I To was suffer
ing both mentally and physically and had
he not been the only one who know where
the bonds wero. ho would have put an end
to bis sufferings by suicido.
While at Oairo ho foil into the hands of
sharpen and wus fleeced of all tho ready
money he had.
Ho fell sick with Nile fever, and had to bo
taken to sea to sao his life. Had it not been
for tho kindness of tho English ofllcers he
would nover hnvo rcachod Liverpool, for
whon he left Cairo ho was so sick with fover
that at times he was unconscious.
The stolon securities he loft hiddon in
Cairo Bimply because ho was not
physically in a condition to guatd
their safety had they boon in hicpoKSoinion.
Ho partially recovered his heultli before ho
arrived at Liverpool, and was ablo to mako
tho voyago actons tho Atlantic unattended.
Whon he arrived at tho latter port ho was al.
most penniless. Tho small sum of money
found on his person when ho was arrested at
Halifax was given him by his brother Harry,
when tho latter met him on tho arrival
of tho steamer from Liverpool. Tho defaulter
has evinced but little excitement sinco his
arrest at Halifax, and that doubtless led tho
reporters to suBpoct' that ho had conio thorn
in boldness to demand nnd receive from tho
victimized lutuk a round sum fur the return
of tho stolon bonds, lint such was not bis
object, all reports to tho contrary notwith
standing. Ilo came to Halifax in penitence
ready and anxious to put tho bank in a way
to recover all its securities.

Characteristics of the Faithful Old Janitor

Sincere sorrow was manifested by Paddy,
tho engineer of Tammany Hall, this morning
as ho led n world reporter to tho littlo room
where tho remains of John T. Coffin, tho vet

' Poor Qoorgo." continued Paddy, who
was ono of tho old Monitor's crew, won't
handle these koys any more. He aud I have
boen here those many, many yours and I shall
miss him.
" Let mo see. He began complaining two
years ago, and ho was never the same man in
health after that. Ho suffered a great deal,
and the doctor told him he had Bright's dis
ease and that it would fetch him,
" Beems to me I can see him now sitting at
that window all by himself, smoking and
looking out. His last work was to direct tho
envelopes notifying tho members of tho Gen
eral Committoe to attend the December meet
ing. " Como here, Tom. Here is his favorite)
cat. Do you know, " to the reporter, " that
Tom appears to know that his master is dead.
