THE HORROR AT HAMBURG mtnunnunni nnmounu Further Details of the Lake Shore Wreck. THE DEATH LIST »EDITED TO SIX. The Heartrending Grief of «Joseph flau cun, Whose Young Hi lde I k pi red lu Ills Arms—A Child's Parents Killed. Corrected List of the Dead and Injured. Buffalo, N. Y., March ».—General Su perintendent Wright and Division Super intendent Couch, of the Lake Shore road, reached here early in the morning and at once began visiting all the injured they could And. They visited the sceue of the wreck near Hamburg in the afternoon. The men comprising the crew of tho ill fated train remained on duty until late iu the morning, after having told theirstories to the officers under whose immediate charge they were. A little light was thrown on tho cause of the accident by this investigation, and it seems that the Maine must be attached to some one iu the forward partof the wrecked train. The train was equipped with the Wostinghou»» automatic brake, and when it first broke in two tb* air was automatically applied, bringing the rear end to a dead stop The fanse of the Accident. To release the brakes it is then necessary, it the cars arc uncoupled from the engine, to open a »mall cock iu the air brake cylin der un dor the oar and allow enough air to escape to release the brakes. By closing the cock then enough air would still be left iu the cylinder to make two stops by pulliug the air brake cord in the car. The most plausible explanation is that all of the air escaped, thus making the brakes useless. And this explains their failure to act when the eord was pulled by Conductor Fest, of the Wagner car. Mr. John Robin son, the master mechanic, did not care to say what his investigation showed. "It's a sad thing," sold he, "and much to bo re gretted. Mooney is one of our most careful engiuoers and has the confidence of us ail in bis ability to act quickly iu an emergency." Condition of the Injured. Tho bruised and wounded who escaped in the disaster are distributed about the city— at the Fitch hospital, the Iroquois hotel aud the Tifft house. The most severely injured are at the Fitch hospital. Tho attendants there say, however, that they were all doing as well as could be expected. They were, of course, iu too weak aud nervous a state to talk. The only injured woman at the hospital who survived was Julia Healy, of Boston, who is in very had shape. One side of her head was mashed, a rib and her right arm broken aud her loft eye badly cut. The at tendants said they thought she would re cover, hut that she would bo seriously dis figured lor life. Rev. Johnsou Myers, ot Cin oiunatl, will recover. He was Injured about the head and legs He is at the Tifft house. He Maid Nonchalently, "Cat Her OH." J. N. Niiulck, of Philadelphia, was also at the Fitch hospital. His right arm was am putated. When the doctors intimated that his arm might possibly be saved, doubting whether he could stand the shock ot the operation, he said: "Go ahead, cut her off," in the most nonchalant way. Mr. Nimick is Dow getting along comfortably. A corrected list of the dead and tho in jured is given below: The Death Boll. Baucus, Mrs. Joseph D., ^Saratoga Springs: skull fractured. Fiynn, J.

Houghtallng*« Alleged Mistake, Coroner Tucker aud hia jury returned last evening from the scene of the wreck. They found that the Wagner car Salina and the rear Lake Shore («tssenger coach were splin tered wrecks. No evidence was taken. The inquiry will resolve into this: That whoever was responsible for starting the disabled train is responsible for the wreck. It is con ceded that the five Wagner cars left Dun kirk attached to the rest of the train only by a coupling. The air and steam pipes were not connected. Conductor Houghtal lug, who ought to have known this fact, pulled the air brakes on the forward section when he discovered the third break. The first sectiou was brought to a dead stop. Or dinarily this would have been the right thing to do, hut with five heavy Wagner cars coming behind at the rat« of forty miles an hour, with nothing to stop them except hand brakes, it was a fatal move. The Warning Came Too Late. "My God, Mooney, go ahead or we will be mashed!" shouted Uoughlaliug to the engineer as he jumped off the air-stuck for ward section and saw tho rest of the train thundering down. Engineer Mooney tried to release the air brakes and turned on e fall bead of steam, hut the big sleepers crushed into the lighter day coaches and ma ' 1 * the wreck w»« th» «ngm» «mw move the train. The Wagner car conductor, in hi» excitement, tried to »et the us. ■ air brakes in throe car» before ho tried the baud brakes. A Ulinbftml'n Anguish. The meet pathetic thing about the acci dent wan the fatal interruption to the bridal trip of Lawyer Joseph I). Hjtucim and wife, of Saratoga Hpringa. Her skull was fract ured and «h© died on the relief train in the presence of her husband, who bore up under his own injuries until his bride was dead. While she lived he watched her with little regard to his own painful wounds and only constant but misleading reports from the surgeons kept him quiet. "hhe'b doing nicely," said one, nodding to Haucus, who was propped up in another seat across the cor. This soothing announce ment had the contrary fleet of that in tended. The husband jumped to his feet and, pushing through the group of doctors, flung himself down btiddo his wife and ciosped the suffering woman to his heart. "My God! she's cold, she's cold!" cried ho, turning freusied and reproachful looks on the physicians. "No," said one of them, "she still Uvea Be a man. While there is life there is hope.'» Ho Kissed >1 Hut the loving heart discredited the sur geon's kindly sophistries. "Bhe is dying," said Haucus, tragically, and stayed close to the loved one till death r<'leas<'d her, kissing the bleeding li|>s, and to the last begging the surgeons to save her life. The end came as the train was enter!ng Buffalo. Haucus' grief was terrible to be hold, and it was only by the greatest effort that he could be coaxed away from the body. Mrs. Haucus was Miss Olney, of Home, N. Y., and her father-in-ldw is ex Judge Haucus, of Saratoga county. Her body is iu the morgue. Another piteous episode was the killing of Mr, and Mrs. Btewar.t, of Rochester, while their baby girl, claspis! iu the mother's arms, escnptd uninjured. The baby kept crying, "Mamma, mammal" Friend* me car tug for the luckless mite. ltl«MMltllg Lip*. A HEAVY FAILURE. Eckstein A Co, the Stale,, Ittland It,-ewers Have Assigned.

Wer theimer applied for a receiver fur the prop erty of L. & E, Wertheimer iu order to liquidate the affairs, uu the ground that tho continuation of the business after the death of her husband was not authorized.

Nkw York, March 8.—The Evening Post says it has been learned that Pell, Simmons, Wallaek and the other bank wreckers used the Asbury Park (N. J.) National bank in their check kiting operations. Sigmund Meyer, whose connection with the wreckers has been alleged, was interested in th« Asbury Park concern. It does not appear that the hunk lost anything by the opera tions of the wreckers, but the fact that there were business transactions of the kind re ferred to led the national bank examiner to inquire into the condition ot the teak, sud this resulted In the discovery that the presi dent, George W. Byram, had loaned the bank's funds to himself for use in real estate speculations to tile extent ot »515,009, The bank's capital is »1,000,000, and the law permits only 10 per cent, of this amount to be loaued in the manner that Byram had loaned it.

IN SENATE AND HOUSE. Mr. Blair Warms Up on His Educational Bill. RHETORICAL »KICK BATS 1HKLEI) The Press of the Country Receives An other Scoring at His Hands—The Re publican Party and the Hill—Hitter Words from New Hampshire's Senator. Washington, March 8.—In the senate the following public building hills were passed: Sterling, Ills, »50,(100; Oakland, Cal, »300, 000; Cheyenne, Wy. T., »150,000; Chester, Pa., »100, 000; Helene, M. T., $.»00, 0 0. The bill appropriating »500,000 for a building at Halt Inke City gave riaa to debate, Mr, Plumb dnslring to have the appropriation reduced to »400,000, Pio Allegiance to a Tarty That Lied. At 0 o'clock the bill went over and the educational hill was taken up. In response to inquiries, Mr. Blair said he could not fix a day tor voting on the bill. Several sena tors wer* (till to speak, among them Mr. Kvarts, who was to conclude the debate. In the course of his remarks on the Mil Mr. Blair said that any longer delay in dispos ing ot this matter would bo unjustifiable, and he would look upon it as a perpetual abandonment of the effort to give national old to the schools ot the country. Tho Re publican jiarty was pledged in its platform to the passage ot tho bill, and if that party failed to make good its pledge that fact would put an end to the party. Like many other men In this country, he owed no po litical allegiance to a party that lied. Mr. Ilwle Again*! the Hill. Mr. Hale spoke in opposition to the bill. It had lieen liefore the senate for eight years, and all the tifne there had been a rising tide against it. In his state, Mr. Halo asserted, tho press and educators and clergymen were against the hill, and the increased opposition to it was only because observation and reason were against it. Ha controverted Mr. Blair's assertion that the condition of education was worse now than twenty years ago. If the bill became law, the line of state and local interests and influence iu educa tion would fade away and ultimately he swallowed up hy federal Influence. Eavored hy Colored Editors. Mr. Blair replied to Mr. Hale's argument and also to Senators Spooner and Hu mb. As to the statement that the south was op posed to the hill, that was not so. The Mont gomery Advertiser favored Its passage. There were 150 |iaperK in the country edited by colored mon aud every one of them favored tbs bill. Mr. Blair sait! he was not mistaken as to the source from which most of the misrep resentations at the north had coma The Jesuitical (lower of the country bad decided that the way to get control of the schools was first to get tbo control of the press. The press had received Its full share ot attention and had manifested ite full share ot sub serviency. The Prass Again geared. H« read extracts from a letter received from a member of the New York Fress club asking for a copy of his speech so as to learn something about the MIL This be said showed that even a newspaper man iu New York could And out nothing from the press there alamt the hill. The Now York press, Mr. Blair declared, were monopolies of tbs worst kind, and the country (ispers bad h^en perverted and poisoned by them. Even the Republican party in the north had been Induced by misrepresentations to tufh Its back on the natural impulses of Republi canism and oppose tho bill, but when it got the facte, as it would some day, that trucu lent press would tell a different story. Ho »poke ot The Boston Globe and Herald opposed to the bill, and said ever' 1) mo cratlc paper in New York city I supported it—naming in that cm. The Herald, World, Times and Evmlng Post. In conclusion, Mr. Blair said be bad further statements to make on another oc casion, and that Mr. Higgins would s(wak in support of the bill on Monday. Adjourned until Monday. Hmiators »wear They Did Not Tell. The senators, one by one, appeared before the Dulph committee which is investigating the secret session leakage of news, aud each asserted on his oath that at no time had he revealed what bad transpired in the secret session except so far as the rules of the sen ate permitted him to speak of executive matter* The interpretation placed upon the rules by senators differs In some mate rial points. Some of the senators held, for example, that they were entitled to Inform any one they pleased of the confirmation or rejection of a nomination, whether the action of the senate bad been "made pub lic" or not Senator Harris said that be had often telegraphed a man telling him of hia confirmation without waiting fur the senate to notify the president Home of the senators were inclined to disagree with Ur. Harris. Ur. Aldrich, the chairman of the committee on rules, said that that bad al ways been bis construction ot the rules, and that ha bad acted uuder that conviction. In the aute-room, the senators awaiting their turns, as witnesses, discussed the investiga tion at length, some of them ip far from flattering terms, ns uoo lion In the House.

Mr. Beaumont explain ed that he was a memb.ir of the legislative committee of the Knights of Labor. The organisation represented by him, be said, believed that the government alone should operate Iho telegraph linos in the country. Ho sketched the attempts made by tbo Knight« of Lalior in the lust congress to have a similar bill passed. Mr. Beaumont thought that the jsislal telegraph suggested by Postmaster General Wanamaker was not a business pro|iosition. Ho thought it was not wise for the government to allow out side parties to o|>erate the lines under gov ernment control. Mr. Benuimuit spoke ol the great corporations of tills country iu vigorous terms. He disputed the argument* of Ur. Norvin Green before the committee that the government had the telegraph lines away from the telegraph companies. The government could gut the lines and got them easy. To Investigate Col.
