A RAILROAD HORROR FiiMfol Wreck on the Grand Trnnlr Railroad. LOSS pF LIFE WAS VERY LARGE Coaches Took Fire and Many Were Burned to Death Caused by Disobeying Orders. Battlk Crcek, :JIich., Oct. 20. A frightful wreck and holocaust occurred carly.this morning on the Grand Trunk road a mile and a half from this city, in which 35 to 40 lost their lives and scores aro maimed. An east-bound special train, loaded with returning world's fair passengers, came in collision head-on with a west-bound paesenger, causing a disastrous smash-up. The wreck took fire, and many of the wounded pinned beneath the broken timbers and twisted iron were burned to death. The respon sibility for the accident is said to rest with Conductor Scott and Engineer Wooley, of the east-bound train, who disobeyed orders by not stopping at Nichols to let the west-bound pass. Twenty-four dead bodies have been al ready taken from the ruins, all terribly burned and unrecognizable. The killed, as far as known, are all eastern people. The coaches of the east-bound train burned completely up. It is supposed fully as many are still in the wreck as have been taken out. Fully 40 were severely, if not fatally, in jured. The east-bound train was a Ray mond & AVhitcomb excursion returning from Chicago, loaded with passengers from New York and Boston. The loss of life was in the west-bound train, not the east-bound special as at first re ported. Both engines were badly wrecked, also the baggage car of the east-bound train; but the rest of it, being made up or sleepers, withstood the shock and nobody in them was hurt. SOMK FlilGHTKUL fcCE.VES. The west-bound was made up of thir teen day coaches, four of which com pletely telescoped each other, and it was here the most frightful scenes were witnessed, as the cars at once caught fire from the lamps and were consumed. The trainmen saved themselves by jumping, except Conductor Burk of the west-bound train, who was caught be neath the cars and badly hurt. Most of the deaths occurred in one car, which was telescoped by those in front and be hind it in such a way as to pen the pas sengers in like rats in a trap. The ac cident was a mile from a fire station, and before water could be turned on and liremen get to work the cars weie consumed. Twenty-live bodies were taken frotuthis car alone as soon as the fire was out. Nearly all had their heads, arms or legs burned off and were unrecognizable. They were mostly piled up ill one end of the car, where they were shoved by the telescoping of the cars. Only eight or ten escaped from tliis car. A horrible sight was that of Mrs. Charles VanDusen of Fort Plain, N. Y., who got half way out of the window , but her legs got fastened so that those who ran to her assistance could not rescue her and she was burned to death before their eyes. One body lias been recognized as that of E. Wirtz, from an uueousjjmed hand kerchief found on it. Another' body bore the business cards of A. A. Allan & Co., Toronto. Charles Van Dusen,one of the injured, died later. Mrs. J. 0. Brady of Toronto is among the badly hurt. So far, 20 bodies are recovered from the wreck. The bodies are all so charred it la iuiposfublo to identify them. The wounded weroWken to tho hotels, railroad offices and residences, and cared, for by all the physicians in town.

John Shields, a stenographer and typewriter in tho busi ness office of the Dispatch ; Bert Shoe maker, a Western Union telegrapher; Samuel G. Loughran, a real estate spec ulator; und Professor Grant Evans, a inindreador and hypnotist, wero arrested yesterday, charged with robbing and threatening to torturo Rachaol Logan, a widow living back of Coraopolis, on the Pittsburg & Luke Erie railway. It is alleged they aro tho four masked men who broko into her houso last Tuesday night.

Tho woman is 00 years old. She told thorn wherosho had $500. Tho robbers so cured tho money and divided it among themselves boforo releasing hor. ihe matter wrs kept quiet until today. Tho police officials got word that Professor Evans was trying to change a $100 bill in a Smithfield-street store and arrested him. At the police station Evans, to save himself, confessed that tho money had been stolen from Mrs. Logan. lie said he was one of tho four men who robbed the house. Evans gave the names of the others in the robbery and they were arrested. Shields admitted his con nection with the affair and said he was hypnotized by Evans, who made him go into it against his will. NEWS NOTES. A drizzling rain in Chicago yesterday. The gold reserve has fallen to $83,000, 000. Lucy Stone, the great woman re former, is dead. The senate confirmed tho nomination of Van Alen to be minister to Italy, by a vote of 39 to 22. Mrs. Roscoe Conkling died in Utica, N. Y., Wednesday from an apopleptic stroke, aged GO years. At the headquarters of the Pacific Ex press at Omaha n bulletin was posted, announcing a cut from 8 to 12 per cent in wages of all employes, effective October 1st. A telegram to the minister of foreign affairs announces that Rio was under fire all day and'great damage was caused. Thousands of people sought refuge in the adjoining towns. Peru establishes gold as the currency of the country and prohibits the impor tation of silver coins. The country has been flooded with Spanish and Mexican silver, and this action, it is expected, will put a stop to their importation. The cabinet announces that the body of Marshal MacMahon will lie in state at the Church of Madeline and afterward wjll be taken to the Invalides; also de cided to give the remains of Gounod a public funeral. In an engagement between the Mata beles and British troops 100 Matabeles were killed. Only one British officer was seriously hurt. The British force numbers between 2,000 and 3,000. It is estimated King Lobengula can muster 10,000 to 20,000 warriors. The forces are advancing with great caution to guard against surprise. The Illinois Central limited train from New Orleans, loaded with passengers for the world's fair, was wrecked by Collid ing with a coal train at a crossing near Kanakee, 111., Thursday night. A num ber of cars were ditched and smashed. It was almost miraculous nobody was killed. Eight passengers wero seriously hurt, and a number of others suffered from bruises which did not require Etir gical aid. Like a Thler ill tho Nlflit Consumption conies.

SciontiBts Say Vh-v Will Day Dio Out. Somo A Learned Opinion Is Tlmt In Tlmn the Soiur T.IrL. anil Heat Will Vanish Intu Utter Ilciilli mill Ilnrkncx. So far as our present knowledge goes it would seem that the brightness of any sunlike body is to be attributed solely to the transformation in some fashion of mechanical power into heat. To take our own Min as an example. It is now an assured doctrine that the heat so necesbary for our welfare is sustained by the gradual contraction of the solar volume. The energy available for transformation into heat in this process seems sufficient to sup ply the radiation of the sun, not only for ages such as those wo reckon in the human period, but even through out a lapse of time so vart as that which geology demands for the forma tion of the earth's crust, v-Ues Sir Robert Ball in the Forti-ightly Re view. But it is certain hat the quan tity of possible light and the beet to bo dispensed by the sun is limited in amount. The sun cannot shine on for ever. A time must assuredly come when the orb, at present so brilliant, will have no more potency for the ra- diation of light than is at present pos sessed by the earth or the moon. In like manner it can be shown that the materials constituting the s-- have not always been luminous. We can not, indeed, say with certainty by what influence their. brightness was origi nally kindled. It probably arose from a collision or an approach to a colli sion, between two dark masses which happened to come to an encounter with enormous velocities in their progress through space. It is, however, plain that the agesduring which the sun has been brilliant form only an incident, so to speak, in the infinite history of that quantity of matter of which the solar system is constituted. Notwithstanding the millions of thousands of millions of years which that matter has existed, it has, per haps, only once become so heated, ow ing to the circumstances which wc may describe r.s accidental or casual, as to have acquired tho ample light dispensing power of the sun. It is, however, possible, that such periods of light-radiating capacity should have occurred more than once; they may XJossibly have occurred several times throughout the ages of time past. Nor is it likely that the last phenomena of this kind Jiave yet arrived. The sun, after the lapse of uncounted years, will lose all its heat, and pass into a black, dark muss. In that form it may endure for an epoch so protracted that the spell during- which it has acted as he luminary of our system will appear but a moment in comparison with the dark ages which succeeded tho solar splendor. But we can conceive that the darkness, which is the doom of our system, need not necessarily be eter nal so far as its materials ai'3 con cerned; it may he that again in the course of its wanderings through space the tide of chance may at length bring1 the dark and tremendous plobe so near some other orb that another collision should take place with appalling ve hemence. The solid materials shall again become transformed into a stu pendous glowing nebula, and then, in the course of the tedious contraction of this nebula, another protracted pe riod of brilliance will diversify the ca reer of the great body, and may last long enough for tho evolution of plan ets and of whole races of highly or ganized creatures. The essential point of our present consideration must not bo misunderstood. A little rejection will show that any periods of bril liance must be regarded as exceptional periods in the history of each body.
