ATTEMPT TO WRECK TRAIN IN VERMONT- A SAKHOW ESCArE FROM AJDISAS'iEB A PILE OF TIES ON THE TBACK -THE FOURTH ATTEMPT AT THE SAME PLACE OTHER GENERAL NEWS. v Tnov, N. Y., Sept- 20. Last night au attempt was made to wreck the St. Louis express train on the Fitch- burg road abaut 1 miles this side of North Pownal, Vermont. The ex press runs in two sections from North Adams, the first, which leaves that place at 8.05 o'clock p. m., being the Nvest Shore division, and the second, which leaves at 8.10 o'clock p. m., being the New York Central and Erie division. As the first section turned the curve at North Pownal at 8.30 o'clock engineer Charles N. Pilling in t lie dim moonlight saw an obstruc tion on the track about three train lengths ahead. The train was run ning about 40 miles an hour. He ap plied the air brakes, stopping the train with a'jerk, but not until the en gine had stiuck the obstacle. This was a pile of nine ties, two of which were spiked to the track. The en gine did not leave the track, though several of the ties were displaced from the pile laid across the rails. lhe brakeman was instantly sent back to signal the rear section, which was only five minutes ; behind and a terrible disaster was averted. The first section consisted of three sleep ers, day coach and baggage car; the second section was composed of bag gage car, one sleeper and two ordi nary coaches. The trains were de tained about twenty minutes until the track was cleared. The officers of the road are of the belief that there was some person at the place of the attempt who had been plotting the disaster for several months. At the time of the accident to a train of California excursionists inJune, when several persons were injured, the trouble was caused by a pwitcn being left half way open. Later in the season a collision oc curred between freight trains, caused by the same method. In both in stances the telegraph operator was discharged, but a third time the switch was misplaced and discovered in time to prevent a disaster,and it is thought the same person is TOBACCO.

The following is the weather crop bulletin issued by the signal office for the week ending September 24th : During the week ending September 24th the weather has been colder than usual in the districts east of the Mississippi, and on the North Pacific coast, the greatest departures from the normal occurring in the states bordering on the lower lakes and on the South Atlantic and North Pacific coasts, where the daily average tem perature was about three degrees be low normal. It was warmer than usual in Mis souri and the lower Mississippi val leys, and thence westward over the Rocky Mountains, the : daily excess ranging from 1 to 4 degrees from Texas northward to Dakota. The 1 temperature for the season from January 1st to September 24th was slightly below the normal from northern New England westward to the noj-th Pacific coast and in the South Atlantic States. It has been warmer than usual in all other dis tiicts, the greatest departures occur ring in the central valleys, where the daily average excess for the season ranges from 1 to 3 degrees, while the average daily temperature for the sjeauon near Lake Superior and on the South Atlantic coast was from .1 to 3 below the normal.

An in- Treasnrjr Notes. A"ASHlJiaTi, IX. f! , Oil TKo total amount of bonds purchased by the treasury department today under the circular of the 22d instant was $1,253,250, of which $1,- 076,200 were 4 per cents a$d $177,- 050 were 4 per cents. The total amount of money already paid out for bonds under this circular is $9,- 593,423, which represents $8,184,650 principal and $1,408,773 premium; 4i per cent bonds, $3,827,350 princi pal and $321,489 premium. These payments are in addition to the Wed nesday purchase of $11,565,300 4 per cent bonds under the previous cir cular. The interest due Uctober 1st on the4 per ct bonds,amounting to $6,- 671,000, was paid by the Treasurer to day without rebate. So it will be seen that the Treasury Department has recently put considerable money into circulation and has nearly extin guished the surplus of receipts for the present month. About two- thirds of the amount paid for today s purchases of bonds was disbursed at New York and Boston, the remainder being paid at. Washington, PhiladeU phia and Cincinnati.

This decision seems to be taken as an in dication that the commission will not encourage roundabout lines to com pete f pr through traffic with more di rect routes. To illustrate : The Seaboard R. R. and ; connections, in order to reach Charlotte at competing rates with shorter lines, have made the rate on grain from Norfolk 20c per 100 lbs to Charlotte. This gram is carried over four railroads,Vhich would give, at an equal division, 5c per 100 lbs. to each. Raleigh's traffic, carried oyer two railroads, is also charged 20c per 100, lbs., which, divided between them, would give each railroad 10c per 100 lbs. - L the decision above quoted it will be seen that the defense set up by the Vermont railroads "waa the ne knocked it off. Over a hundred peo ple were on the train and they felt considerable alarm over their narrbw escape. A-few nigfitsago ,an attempt was made to wreck the Ohio and Missis sippi train between Shoals and Hu ron.

About 25 per cent of the usual amount of rain has occurred in New England and 25 per cent in the South Atlantic States and Virginia. V The rainfall in the western portions n and from Texas northward to Dakota and Minnesota during the past four weeks has been abundant and generally has exceeded 00 per cent of the amount for that period. The same conditions will apply to the belt of country extending from Lake Erie westward to Iowa. The rainfall for the season has been less than usual except in the central portion and middle Atlantic states, at isolated Rocky Mountain stations and in Oregon and Washington territory, where the rainfall has been slightly greater than normal. The large sea sonal deficiency in the central valleys has been augmented during the past monta.The area in which thisdefi ciency ranges from ten to eighteen inches includes .northern Louisiana and Mississippi, portions of Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, i In diana, Illinois and Iowa. The weather has been generally favorable during the past week in the cotton region and tne harvest or tms crop is pro gressing i rapidly. A deficiency! of rainfall in portions of Arkansas and Mississippi may reduce the yield of this crop. Reports from the greater portion of the winter wheat region show that the w"ork of preparing the ground is being retarded on ac count of continued drought. Reports from Tennessee, the mid die Atlantic States and New England show the weather favorable fori the crops and that the seeding of wheat is in progress. Reports from Kansas, Nebraska and the western portions of Missouri and Iowa indicate that the weather for the weekwajaJavbrable to grow ing crops.

INSCRRECTIO.V Of Xegroe. at Matagorda, Texaa. Houstos, Tex , Sept 26. Word was brought in last evening that an iasurrection was imminent among the blacks at Matagorda. The sheriff of Matagorda county sent a courier to Sheriff Hickley, of Brazoria county, asking for immediate assistance to put down the insurrection. The courier states that over 2,000 negroes were under arms in Matagorda and that the excitement among the whites was very great. The trouble arose over an attempt of a colored con stable to arrest a white man who resid ed on Caney Creek. The constable was found dead, lying in the water of the creek, and the negroes believe that he was murdered by white men of the vicinity because he had a warrant for one of their number. Later reports last night stated that Sheriff Hickey had raised a posse of fifty mounted white men and started for Matagorda, while the sheriff of Matagorda county was en route to the scene of the trouble with one hundred men. At noon today an alarming report reached this city that the sheriff's forces have arrived and active hostilities begun. The negroes have been largely reinforced. The Houston Light Guards have just re ceived orders to leave on a special train, for the town of Columbia, Bra zoria county. Fatal! Shooting on thel Franco-German Frontier. Paris, Sept. 26.

An old wooden schooner, the Silliman, anchored a mile and a quarter from Fort La fayette, was by two shots from Zalinski sgun reduced to a shattered mass of wreckage in fact, utterly destroyed. The experiment was instructive in several ways. It show ed that the pneumatic gun could de liver a missile with accuracy, and that the problem of using large charges Of explosive gelatine and dynamite with safety to the users was approxi mately, ahd perhaps fully, solved by Zalinski's invention. The gun cm-, hloved in "Tuesdav's frinln won an eight-inch tube of great length, from which a shell containing 55 pounds of dynamite and gelatine was projected by condensed air under a pressure of C00 pounds to the square inch., The State vs. Jos.

His real name was Saunc lers, and he was a hear relative of Col. Wm. J. Saun ders of this city. This was ascer tained in the sourse of the search for the legal heirs. While the interest in the mitter was at its height, a prominent Mississippi gen tleman wrote to a ci iizen of Bonham asking: "Is Col. T. C. Bean dead, and did he leave a will ?" The citi zen replied stating 1 hat no will could be found. The Mississippi gentle man, whose name was Saunders, again wrote and said : "Col. Bean should have left a ?'ill and it must have been stolen. He was my brother and his name was Saunders. While on a surveying expedition in Missis sippi before the war, he struck a fel low surveyor with a Jacob staff, kill ing him. He then i ed to Texas and vou know the rest of his history. If his will is found it will also be found that some colored friends are partial legatees of his estatB." This gentleman VTote very famil iarly of Col.

Bean gave him exactly the above account some years ago; then a prominent Dpctor of Gaines ville, Texas, and- a life long friend of Col. Bean corroborates the account by writing the same iden tical facts. It is also remembered that Mr. Saunders was seen with Col. Bean more frequently than any one else. What is more peculiar, a former slave of Col. Bean now comes forward and says he can produce the lost will and that it recites in substance the facts stated in Mr. Saunc now believed that I the document for would get it and their legacies.
