A well filled car, ——M—— on reaching the upper terminus of the rood, from some reason or other- said to have been the failure of a brake to work—started down the five-mile grade.

Another Account. Later advices from Mount Penn say there are different stories as to the canse of the accident but it appears that when the tower was reached, the point where the gravity portion of the road com¬ mences, the engine was detached, when the car ran away while the passengers were still on board. The distance to the point of starting is five miles, and it is estimated that this was covered by the runaway car in about three minutes, the car attaining a fearful speed, estimated at eighty miles an hoar. It remained on the track to the foot of the plane, going around all the curves, while the passengers shrieked iii their fright and several jumped off. When the car reached the station at the foot of the plane it jumped the track and rolled down a fifty-foot em¬ bankment, where it landed upside down with the passengers imprisoned inside. The greatest excitement prevailed, and soon a large crowd gathered. ANOTHER MISSISSIP PI 8CHEME. Proposal to Give the Elective Franchise to Woman Who Own Real Estate.

Mr. Powderly has vtrftten the follow¬ ing letter to Mr. A rt hur, gr and ch lsf en- ginserof the Brotherhood of Dooomo- tive Engineers: There is at present a strike in progress on the New York Central and Hudson River-railroad. In this strike is invslrsd a principle which we cannot afford to lg. nore, and the principle is that of fair play. Many of the men on strike are firemen, and belong not only to the Knights of Labor but to the Brotherhood of Looomo- tive Firemen. They are manfully con¬ tending the right to maintain their or¬ ganization. They are now at a standstill, and In some Instances their places are be¬ ing filled by members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who have stepped down from the foot-board to pick up the shovels which were dropped by ths firemen.
