C, AUGUST 29, 1891 The Railroad Disaster. There are but few further particu lars of the recent disaster on the W. N. C. Railroad. The Coroner s jury has the matter under investigation, and it is best to await its results. The cause of the wreck is of course unknown. The theory which is be ing advanced is that there was a spreading of the rails, caused by de cayed ties. The railroad; this morn ing produced evidence to show that the spikes were drawn and a rail re moved by some one before the train passed over. Several spikes were shown which gave evidence of having been drawn. Mr. Bbnehan Cameron's Accoust. I was en route with Auditor San derlin to Cleveland, N. C, and having lost sleep the night before was sleep ing soundly in the sleeper at the time of the accident. The shock aroused me to complete consciousness and I was not aware that I was hurt or cf what had happened. Then, exerting all my strength, I raised the upper berth a foot or so and got hold on the iron grating over head and pulled myself out of the water and out of the upper berth. Here a Mrs Moore asked for help and I got her out of a window. I went back and shouted for Sanderlin, without reply, then I took out Mrs. Moore's daughter, and returning, I again called for Sanderlin, getting this time a faint reply, and groping my way to him dragged and pulled him to a broken window out of the water and the fresh air revived us both. I was in the. forward right lower berth, my first sensation was that the windows were closing in on me, and that the car was on its left side and the water was coming in. The first effort to escape showed me that the water had come up to the lower edge of the berth above me, and that my left foot was firmly bound in some way, and I felt that I was smothering, though the water did not rise any higher nor the car sink any lower. I called and yelled at the top of my voice, but heard no answer except the groans and cries from other sufferers, then I recalled my thoughts and set to work to extricate my foot and sue ceeded. Hearing a cry from a lady I went to her relief, but found that she was held down and all my strength could sot pull her out. Feeling under the "water I found that her clothing was attached to something. I tore it off and got her out. She was very weak and faint and I laid her on a cushion. I asked her name and she said she was traveling with Mrs. Hix, and she herself was Mrs White, from Mein phis, Tenn. As no one else responded to my call, "Does any one need help," I proposed to Sanderlin to stay with the three ladies, while I should go for outside help. Bareheaded and barefooted and in night clothing I tramped to a farm house, and secured a convey ance I came to Statesville and roused the town and then returned.

Bolts were pulled out twenty feet from where it went off. Coaches pulled the engine off. There was no sign of the track being loosed except all drawn off to gether in the crash. It was counet" ted with the Hue. I have not the slightest idea there was any tamper ing with the track. The track spread because of defective cross ties. I ex examiued closely before 3 o'clock and was the first man to notify the train dispatcher."' There are others who held to his theory that defective cross ties caused the track to spread. Mr. Ransom does not believe the track was tampered with. : Will Hradiord I The Old Dominion steamship Coui AeLcville; iknj. pauy'b su-i.ner Old Doiu'tiion broke her port shaft about '0 a ui. 1'hurs day, which disabled her euginn aud left her to the mercy of the wiuds and waves about W miles south of Absecoru light house. She had about 40 people on t-oard. Soon af ter the accident, the first officer and four seamen pat toe-.-a with four days provisions in a life boat, aud landed at Atlantic City from which point he telegraphed the Owners in Kew York for tug assistance. Mil, 0( Abbeville, was As fO hi as he extricated Southern kS Enjoyed It. Cue of our joking printers in this I city played a " tough" trick on sev- erul of the tree lunch eaters here abouts the other day. One of our siilonn keepers some times trives hiscuetomersa free lunch I ami our friend thought- this was a A Profitable Business lected. Etcg- On our eastern coast there are men who make a business of Terrapin and crab culture, by puttiug the small ones into pounds and leaving them to grow. Crabs are put in these pounds when hard and are shipped when they shed, as soft crabs, or as peelers when they are about to shed. These people realize fine profits on their in vestments. Chickens generally command a good price in the Raleigh market and it does seem that as fair a profit could be made in chicken culture, as in crabs and terrapins, but somehow our people only rnise chickens iuci dentally. Will it not pay to prepare and go regularly into the business 1 I It does in some sections, why not in Wake ? Inter State lion. Exposl- !Norfo!k J andmark. Mr. John B. Stone, special agent of the Southern Inter State Exposition, Raleigh, N. C, is at the Atlantic Hotel, Mr. Stone will be in the city three or four days, and parties de siring to bccure space for exhibits will do well to see him. This expo sition wiil be open for sixty dayB, and, being a Southern Exposition, every Southern State will be represented. North Carolina is an important field to this city, and Norfolk should be well represented. The exposition people are sending canvassers to cities north of Raleigh advertising the exposition. ! CMdw. Cry for Pitched Castofi N good time to get in his work. And! so he did. lie procured about half a I foot of one of those rollers used in printing offices, which ;ire composed of a villianous but not unhoalthy compouud of molasses, glue, glycer ine and other ingredientc. He cut the wad up into neat pieces resembling fried liver, and in the ab sence of the wine clerk put it on the bar, placed and spiced it up well with pepper and salt and watched events. Soon a well known luncher, whom we will call John, arrived and made a dive for the liver, a big piece of which he got into his capacious ori fice. After a moments chewing he halted, evidently between two opin ions, and then removing the mouth ful said : u Bedam but if that is uot the tuf fest liver 1 ever tasted,1' -i"' walked out. Instantly another ily came to the plate in the person of a gey young local reporter. He was more iTastidhms about the fare than John, and selecting a fair sized piece, covered it with mustard sandwitched it with bread After taking a good bite he began to buzz the bartender for the latest news, still chewing vigorously. After a few ineffectual attempts at mastication the young man stopped as if he had lockjaw, pulled the quid from his mouth, exclaiming: "Well, blow me if that hain't rubbaw," and fled amid the machinations of the boys.
