BsELL.cIrs:, Ohio, July :31. Another
horror has been added to the late list of
railroad accid.?nts in Ohio. At about 10
,'clock this morning passenger train
No. I on the Bellaire, Zanesville & Cin
cinnati railroad left the track three
miles south of Bellaire. two cars being
overturned anad dragged some distance
by the engine. There were seventy
passengers on the train anid the two cars
that turned over into the ditch w're
crowded with well-known people of this
section. When they left the track some
one cried that everybody should cling
to their seats, but the shock was so awful
many were hurled fromn one side to the
other. those not badly injured being ter
ribly shaken up. Assistance was soon at
hand from other passengers and train
men. and when all were finally taken out
of the wrecked car it was found that I
fourteen pceople had been injured, four of I
them s.riously and one fatally. t
The train was running at the least I
calculation at the rate of thirty-tiventiles
ccn hour, and as it reached a curve- the s
c.ars were ncticed to sway violently. adli

Nl.w Y,.t:. July 31. I. (G. Dun .l
Co.'s nweekly review of trade will say:
Business continues dragging and dull.
In commercial circles there seems a very
general and growing confidence that the
business of the fall will be large and
profitable and some improvement is seen
but not enough as yet to justify sanguine
views. Trade at the south is peculiarly
depressed because there is too much
cotton. Again in parts of the west
where crops failed last year trade has
not yet recovered from the great de
pression resulting and as long as the
corn crop is in doubt complete recovery
is not to be expected. In several states
legislation hostile to capital caused much
disturbance. A further collapse of real
estate speculation in many parts of the
west and south has brought severe losses
and embarrassment to many. At the
east monetary uncertainties have a
powerful influence.
European difficulties do not pass as
quickly Or fully as was expected and
now serious financial trouble is appre
hended in Russia because of the failure
of crops, which will only help this count
ry in the end. There is a growing doubt
whether the movement of crops here will
not cause temporary drain greater than
the eastern money markets can meet, but
it the grain can be sogo gold will come.
One large financial institution has
bought English consols to a unsiderable
amount, and a leading trust company is
said to have $4,00,OJO of its deposits in
gold. The great industries show no im
portant change for the week though it
must be said that the disheartenment in
woolen goods trade seems to increase and
it is admitted that sales
are not equal to last year's, though trade
was dragging then. Much of the trouble
lV is attributed to exceepve credits in the
clothing system.
In boots and shoes there is continued
improvement, and Boston shipments
since July 2 have largely exceeded those
of the same weeks last year.
The coal trade is still depressed by ex
cessive production, the output exceeding
last year's to date by 2,700,00o tons.
Copper is still represented by the a
ethy of home consumers and there isl
very little trade in lead, while specula
tion has lifted and again depressed the
price of tin. Philadelphia describes the
iron market as frightfully dull and sales
to realize are made at prices consider
ably below quotations. Structural mills
I are well suplpiled for the present and bar
iron is steady, though the poverty of rail
roads makes the demand scanty, but
plut's are irregular. buyers refraining
frmn taking rails, and lower grades of
pig-iron are offered below quotations.
The market for breadtstutf hs li be en
strengthened by reports of injury to
crops in Russia and wheat has risen 1.:
cents and corn 1. cent.
THE I'ENRosSEc'ASE.
Counsel for thle .rre.sted Men--The F:xaen
Intleon Not Vet Net.
Bariri:. July 31.- The preliminary ex
it amination of Messrs. l)eeney, Kelly. anli
Hickey. under arrest charged with the
'I murder of W. J. Penrose. has not yet
f been set. although it has been asked by
0 Thompson Campbell. their attorney.
n They will be arraigned, it is supposed. i
- today or tomnorrow. In speaking of the j
e matter yesterday Mr. Campbell said that I
S it was just possible the evidence against
e the ien would show that they could be
Sadmnitted to bail. The jury had been 1
a dismissed for the term and unless the
e men could be hailed olut they would have
a to remain in jail until the October term.
e Mr. Campbell was doubtful if sufficient
testimony would be developed by the
' state at the preliminary examination to
1 hold the men for the grand jury.
A relport was current yesterday that
Colonel Sanders and Warren Toole had
been engaged for the defense. The
former has been approached on the sub
ject and hadl some conversation with Mr.
t ampbell about it yesterday, but it is
understood that the only counsel so far a
retained is Mr. Campbell. The report
that Mr. Scallon has been retained by
Hickey is prenmature. When the latter I
was brought to the jail Mr. Scallon was g
sent for by hilm. but he has not been re- a
taimed so far.
It is plrobable that the prteliminary ex
iatination will take place in the biegin

work which was $10,(X)0 less than Larkin

Neighblorly .ua.rrel. Eventually Lead Up
toi a Tragedy.
CROTON L.Nni\sn, . , , Y.. Aug. 1. --One
of the most thrilling tragedies that ever
occurred in Westchester county took
place here this evening, which will re
sult in the death of Newton Baker, priv
ate secretary of Col. Robert G. Ingersoll,
who was shot four times by Orville M.
Anderson, late New York agent of the
Louisville Gas company. Anderson and
his family reside in Moody homestead,
and he sublet part of the house to Baker
and wife. The two families have never
agreed and neighborly quarrels were fre
quent between the women of the house,
which sometime ago became so serious
that Anderson and Baker took up the
quarrel and often had heated disputes
over the matter. The quarrels biieame
more and more serious every day between
the two men, until it went so far that
both husbands threatened to take each
other's lives. Threats culminated to
night in one of the most thrilling duels
and tragedies over known. Baker and
Anderson were walking toward their
homes today attempting to adjust their
difficulties. They had not proceeded
far when they perceived Mrs. Baker
coming toward them to meet her hus
band and walk home with him. so the
two men would not quarrel and corme to
blows, but when she was within a few
feet of her husband she said: "While
you were absent this morning that man
(pointi.rg to Anderson) stared at me in
an ungentlemanly manner and in his
actions and conduct insulted men. 11e
did not address me, but laughed in a
daring and sarcastic manner." Baker
then turned to Anderson and said:
"That was an insult to my wife
and I, as her husband, cannot
allow this." Both men drew their
revolvers and Mn. Baker sprang between
them and threw her arms about her
hnsband's neck and tried to shield him
from Anderson's bullets. Mrs. Baker
becoming exhausted swooned away.
Both men fought for their lives. They
clung to each other for a few moments
when Anderson suddenly broke away
quickly stepped back a few paces an
raing his revolver fired at Baker. His
aim wss true for as Baker was about to
raise his arm to shoot Anderson fired the
ball striking Baker's right arm and
breaking it. Baker's weapon fell from
his hand. Anderson then fired three more
shots in quick succeemion, the second
shot striking Baker on the forehead and
making a glancing wound, while the
third bullet entered his left side just be
low the heart, and the fourth bullet
pierced the right aide. Baker dropped
to the ground, mortally wounded, and
begged Anderson to not shoot again.
When Anderson saw his enemy lying
on the ground he coolly placed his re
volver back in his pocket and walked
home, leaving Baker and his half-crased
wife on the roadside. Mrs. Baker soon
called for help and her wounded hus
band was taken to the same house where
his would-be murderer had already pre
cetnswl him. Ihoctom were hastily sumr
moned and after examining Baker's
wounds pronounced them fatasl Ander
son was arrested.

THE SON OF LONGFELLOW THE WINNER.
h The Race Witnessed by 25,000 Peo
ple-The Betting Slightly in
Favor of Longstreet.
He Wins an Easy Victory by Eight
Length----What the Owners
Have to Say.
'I 'NNhY AND LONGSTREI, T.
The .No of Loungfellow Defetms the Sway
hack Wonder.
I NEw YORK, Aug. 1.- The much talked
of and long delayed match race between
Pulsifer's swayback horse, Tenny, and
D. F. Dwyer's Longstreet was run at
Morris park today and resulted in an
easy victory for Longstreet by eight
lengths. Fully 25,000 people were pres
ent, many of whom had journeyed from
all parts of the Union to see the race and
to satisfy themselves as to the superior
animal of the two. While a race, it was
hardly the contest many had hoped to
see. Nevertheless it was a good contest
and proved conclusively that the great
swayback is no match for the D)wyer
candidate. In this fact this opinion is
shared by Pulsifer himself, who, when
seen after the race, gave it as his opinion.
In betting Tenny opened at 1i to 10.
while Longstreet could be backed at
even money. Public money then began
to go on Tenny, forcing his price down
to 3 to five, while Longstreet kept up
steadily until just lbefore they went to
the post, when ( to 3 could be had
against him. Suddenly a low-sized, dark
complexioned youth was seen stealing º
behind the IKookmaker's box to the right
of the ring. He was instantly recognized
by a select few as "Circular Joe. Mr.
l)wyer's conmlissioner. liHe lost no time
in putting money, it going in at hun
dreds at a clip, until he had placed near
ly i0.00O0 on Longstreet. Despite
this heavy support given to Long
street his price seemed to have
remained steady all the while, Tenny's
friends sticking to him wonderfully.
Little or no interest was manifested in
the three lrevious events. Just after
Raceland won his race a gang of work- C
men brought out thie hurrows and for
nearly thirty minutes they were kept at f
work. Finally the bell rang and tilt
crowd took their seats in thegrand standl
ready for the fray to begin.
Tenny. with "Pike" Barnes in the sald
die, was the first of the pair to show. He '
was saddled in his stable on the back- s
stretch, while Blarnes walkted across the a
field to the starting-post. 'Tenny lotlked
in prime condition and elicited much I
applause when given his preliminatry c
gallop. He worked well enough to cause
many of those who had backed him to
again visit the ring and almost double
their bets.
Longstreet soon followed but he
showed a disposition to shrink his work
which caused his admirers considerable
uneasiness. Stones, clods of dirt, shouts,
waving of arms were all used in an en
deavor to make him break but once in
motion his long sweeping stride carried
him along in a way that meant volumes
to those whose hopes and dollars he was
carrying. He pulled up at the paddxock
gate and once within its shelter was sur
rounded by a throng of eager sight seers
who eyed him almost in wonder until the
bugle signalled him to the post. Tenny
soon joined him here and as he did the
crowd alnost to a man rose from their
seats, each seeming to know and feel a
right royal contest was before them.
Fourth race--match, 85,000 a side with
82..i(1 added, mile and a quarter. Start
ers Longstreet. 124, Hamilton, () to 5.
Tenny, 124, Barnes, 7 to 10.
The first break looked to be a good
start but Lnagstreet for some reason re
fused to go on and the flag failed to fall.
In the next attempt Longstreet tried the
same trick but a good rousing from
Hamilton got iim in nmotion and the
word was given with the s.on of Long
fellow half a length in front. lie soon
made it a length and at the end of a
quarter it was two, in fact every stride
seemed to bring him furtlher away. See
ing this Barnes began to urge Tinny and
just as he breasted the hill he seemed to
gain on the liader andt as he did his
backers grew wild with delight. Short
lived was their glee, however, for Long
street soon began to draw away again
and at the end of a mile it was
seen hlie would win. Whip and spur as
Barnes might Tenny could not gain an
inch for the rest of the journey, and a
doentn jumps from the end he began to
pull up. Hamilton saw this and let up
on Longstreet a trifle. still not enough to
take any chances, and at the end was
winner by eight lengths in 2:071. The
fractions were ':li, 50, 1;17%, 1:42 and
M2:lke" Dwyer saw the race from the
timer's stand andl he was highly pleased
with the sueee" of his representative.
lie was heartily t.ongratulated and said
the result was what he had expected.
He had told his friends Longatreet would
win and in dodng sm he felt he was
telling them to hack the hbet horse he
ever owned. lIe also said he was willing
to give Col. Pulslfer another chance to
beat him itf he wanted. lie said he
would probably clhange the winner's
name to Rook liedge,'which is the title
of his hotel prolerty in I"iorlila.
'l'enny's owner was seen after the race
and said he was matletHed the race had
been a true one, with well dielhlned victory
for omngstreet. While lh hai l no ex.
