WONT PICK UP ANOTHER BABY. What Happened to a Stranger Who , % Was Polite to a Mother in a Crowd. New York World. He was a heavy swell from London, ■lopping at the St. Denis Hotel, and he was standing Wednesday at the corner of Fourteenth street and i iftli avenue, waiting for the parade, when he saw a well-dressed woman with a baby helplessly struggling in the douse crowd that packed the sidewalk. Politely lifting his hat, the diguilied Britisher said: “Madame,thatchild will be crushed. Where do you want to go?” “Oh, sir,” said the perspiring mother with an appealing look, “I am trying to get into Sixth avenue.” “All right, I will help you, ns I wnnt to get to the Elevated Station,” was the reply. “Let me take the baby.” The child was transferred to the arms of the sturdy English dude, who pushed his way through the crowd, and in a few minutes had reached the middle of the avenue. Looking around for the mother, she was nowhere to be seen, and the Englishman started for the place where lie had left her. He was stopped by a policeman, who refused to let him pass, and said he would have to “go the other way.” “Will you please take the baby, then ; its mother is lost ?” "Now, young feller, you can’t give me any story like that,” was the reply. Just at this moment the infant set up a loud howl, its tears running down the neck of its protector ns it hung about his shoulders, and the crowd at the same time awoke to an apprecia tion of the scene. There were cries of “Hi Jimmie, get onto his jags wid do kid!” “Why dontt he marry the girl?” and “It doesn’t look like its daddv!” A thousand people by this time were laughing at the-Englishman. who stood helpless and uncomfortable in the middle ot the street, looking about as if for some place to throw the child, when a ooliceman asked him to give an account of himself and how he came into possession of the equalling infant. Finally the mother struggled to the scene, grabbed the child, and, stopping for a moment to accuse her new acquaintance of trying to steal it, rushed off. nr A DISASTROUS WRECK. Two Freight Trains Collide, Killing two and Wounding Others. Bridgeport, Conn , May 2S — A special freight train from this city col lided with the regular Albany freight, bound south on the Housatonic rail road, about 4:30 o'clock this morning, one mile from Bull station, causing a disastrous wreck. Both trains came together with a terrible crash,wrcckin t the engines into a shapeless mass, telescoping two freight cars on the up train, smashing three cars of the down train and detailing nine other cars. Engineer William B. Look, of Great Barrington, Mass., who had charge ot the engine of the up train, was crushed to death- His remains were found buried in the coal of his tender. Charles Olds, a brakeman on the same train, was terribly crushed, and died in a few moments after the collis ion, John Lamonte, of WestStockbridge, a brakeman, jumped as the trains came together. His left ankle was crushed and one of his ribs was fractured. James McDermott, the engineer of the down train, jumped just before the collision. His shoulder was dislocated and he was otherwise bruised. The two latter will recover. The cause of the accident was due to diso bedience of orders. Fearful Fire.
