MISS CROCKER'S ROMANCE.
Cleveland Heiress to Marry the Man Whose
Life She Saved.
Cleveland's wealthiest society girl has
thrown over a baron who is an officer in
the German army and chamberlain to
Emperor William for an American gen
tleman. Mr. and Mrs. T. D. Crocker
announce the engagement of their only
daughter, Miss Lanra T. Crocker, to
William Hayes Acklan of Washington.
This is the outcome of something of
a romance. Several years ago, when
Miss Crocker was traveling in Europe,
she met Mr. Acklan, then in the diplo
matic service, in a Fronch city. The
next winter the acquaintance was re
newed at St. Augustine, and Mr. Ack
lan came to Cleveland to visit the Crook
erg in June.
Miss Crocker, who is a 6nperb horse
woman, saved Mr. Acklan's life during
a runaway. Both were severely injured.
The young man was nursed buvk to
health under the Crocker roof and tll
In love with his rescuer. The next win
ter they met at St Augustine, but Bar
on von Eichtriz, a German nobleman
of fine appearance, was also there and
tried to win the heiress. He lingered,
but at last was compelled to return to
Germany alone.
Miss Crocker went to Washington,
where she was the guest for several
weeks of Vice President and Mra Ste
venson. She met Mr. Acklan again and
consented to become his wife. Miss
Crocker is 22 years old and has traveled
extensively. Mr. Acklan is the anthor
of several books. New York Journal
A FAMOUS CASE.
The Davis Will Case to Ee Reopened In
Montana.
Mrs. Elizabeth Bowdoin of Spring
field, Mass., has filed a petition in the
Eighth district court cf Montana for the
purpose of reopening the famous will
case contest involving the many millions
left by the late Judge Andrew J. Davis.
Mrs. Bowdoin is a sister of the dead
millionaire, and she asks the court to
revoke the probate cf the old will, over
which the contest by the Root faction
was carried on for years, and which was
finally admitted to probate about a year
ago under some private arrangement for
the division of the estate, bet which
arrangement did not include some heirs-at-law
who had taken no part in the
original contest. Mrs. Bowdoin was one
of tbese.
In her petition she alleges that the old
will, executed in 18G6, in Salt Creek
township, la., when Davis was a poor
man, was a forgery ; that the body of
the instrument and the signatures of
Davis and three witnesses wero forged.
The principal point raised in the peti
tion is the allegation of the fact that in
1880 Davis executed a will, by the pro
visions of which all former wills were
revoked, but this will was subsequently
destroyod. Mrs. Bowdoin, however,
claims that the fact that it was destroyed
did not revive the old will, even if the
latter was genuine. The estate involved,
in spite of the great litigation, has con
stantly increased in value, and is worth
probably $10,000,000. Chicago Times

Express Crashes Into an Ex
cursion Train.
100 ARE KILLED AND INJURED
Wreck Occurred at a Kailroad Cross-
Ins;, and the Kxcurslon Train Was
Literally Cut In Twain by the Express
Atlantic City, N. J., Aug. 3 A
railroad aooident, horrible in its details
and sickening in its results, ooourred
this evening, just outside of this city,
and as a result about 100 persons are
either killed or injured.
The Reading railroad express, which
left Philadelphia at 6:40 o'clock this
evening for Atlantio City, crashed into
a Pennsylvania railroad excursion train
at the second signal tower, about four
miles out from here.
The Pennsylvania train was return
ing to Bridgeton with a party of excur
sionists from that place, Millville and
neighboring towns. It was loaded
with passengers, and a rough estimate
of the killed aud injured at a late hour
plaoes the number at 100. It is hoped
that this is an exaggeration, but the
number is undoubtedly more than fifty.
At the second signal tower, the
tracks of the two roads diagonally
cross. The Readirg train was given
the signal to stop, but the brakes either
failed to work or the speed of the ex
press was too great to be checked in
time. It caught the excursion train
broadside and ploughed through, liter
ally oleaving it in twain. The engine
of the Reading train was shattered to
pieoes. Every oar on the excursion
train was jammed to its fullest ca
pacity. As soon as the news reaohed Atlantio
City, the utmost consternation pre
vailed, but the authorities weie equal
to the emergenoy. Relief trains were
dispatched to the scene, loaded with
oots and bearing staffs of surgeons.
As quick as the bodies were recovered,
they were carried into the local hos
pitals and undertaker's shops.
A general fire alarm was sounded,
and the department promptly respond
ed, and aided in the heartrending work
of digging for the victims. Fear grew
into despair and horror as the vigorous
work of the relief gangs revealed the
awful extent of the disaster.
The first Reading relief train bore
into this city twenty-seven mangled
corpses, men, women and children.
The next train, not an hour later, car
ried fifteen of the maimed and wound
ed, and two of these died soon after
reaching the city.
As train after train plied to the
scene of the wreck, and came back
with its ghastly burdens, the Sani
tarium, which does duty as the city hos
pital, quickly found its capacity over
taxed. Meanwhile others of the dead
and injured were being carried ta the
private hospital at Ocean and Pacific
avenues.
Eward Farr, engineer on the Read
ing train, was killed outright, as was .
another railroad man who rode on the
engine with him. This man, whose
name has not yet been learned, saw the '
collision coming and leaped from the
cab an instant before the crash came.
Almost at the same instant the engine i
cut its way through and caught- him
directly in its path. His body aud that
of Farr were found under a heap of
debris, but the engineer ly in what
remained of the cab, and his right
hand still clasped the throttle, lie had
been faithful unto death, and mot it at
his post.
The fireman on that train leiped a
few seconds before aud escaped with
trifling injuries.
Samuel Thornton, ba?gag3-master
on the Reading train, is among the
dead.
Jaine M. Bateman, a Eridgaton un
dertaker, is known to b8 killed. He
was in the third car, and his hat was
found lying among the mass of broken
timbers.
Richard Trenchard, a Bridgeton ma
chinist, and his wife are both dead.
Conductor Kelly, of the Pennsylva
nia train, had both arms and legs
broken, and was internally injured.
Albert J. Mosebach, of No. 18 North
Eighth street, Philadelphia, was on the
Reading train. He esaaped unhurt.
The excursion train was made up of
fifteen cars, the foremost of which was
a baggage car. This and the next two
coaches caught the full force of the
crash, and were utterly demolished.
What remained of the third car was
tumbled into a ditch at the roadside.
The responsibility for the accident can
not now be fixed.
William Thurlow, ttlegraph operator
in the tower-house, was arrested to
night and held, pending an inquiry.
Bragged to Death,
.The Dalles, Or., Aug. 8. A distress
ing accident happened late last even
ing, whereby Franoes Elizabeth Kreft,
the eldest daughter of ex-Mayor Paul
Kreft, was killed. The young lady, ac
companied by her youngor sisters, was
out driving, when the horse became
frightened and ran away. The younger
sisters were thrown out, and thb elder
one stayed in for a time, when she,
too, was thrown from the vehicla.
The young lady was dragged for over a
mile and fearfully laoerated.
Europeans Massacred.
Paris, Aug. 8. Advices from Ma
janga, Madagascar, report that a cara
van of two Frenchmen and throe Eng
lishmen have been massacred by the

HEAT WAS TERRIBLE.
Sixteen Cases or l'rostrutlon lUeordad
at St. I.oul.
St. Louis, July 81. The terrors of
the heat today found their full climax
at the city hospital, where physician
and attendants were kept busy all da;
and until midnight receiving and
attending patients. The number of
oases of beat prostration sent to the
hospital as serious were Bixteen. Of
these, one died, and two others are ex
peoted to die at any moment.
Henry Meyers, who was sent to the
hospital Monday suffering from the
heat, insisted on leaving the institu
tion this morning, declaring ho was all
right He was brought back this af
ternoon utterly prostrated and did not
rally, dying shortly afterward.
Henry Welp, machinist, and George
Beard, a mason, were brought to the
hospital tonight and it is thought they
cannot live.
One death occurred in East St. Louis,
George Carr, an employe of Wiggins'
Ferry Company, sucouinbing from the
effects of the heat.
Police reports from the different dis
tricts in the city show that thirty
horses were prostrated today.
Reports from different points in Illi
nois and Missouri indicate that the
weather is still worse than at St.
Louis.
A REIGN OF TERROR.
Cripple Creek Seems to Be a Good Place
to Stay Away From,
Denver, July 81. An evening paper
publishes a speoial from Cripple Creek,
a lengthy article, to the effect that a
reign of terror is existing in the town,
and making a violent attack on Town
Marhal Jim Marshull and Police Mag
istrate Robert Mullen. It is asserted
that the marshal makes regular assess
ments on the gambling fraternity, and
that respectable and law-abiding citi
zens are thrown into jail, tortured and
fined without even a pretense of a war
rant of authority. For several months,
it is alleged, outrageous acts on the
part of several city ofiloials havo been
growing more frequent and bold, but
so completely have the police terror
ized the people to it they have not even
dared to criticise the acts of oQohls.
Among those who have been persecuted
are the "cowboy preacher," Rioe, and
his wife.
IMMIGRANT MATTER3.
Business Trausacted by tr stern Lines
During the Past Six Month.
Chioago, July 81. Mr. Pratt, of the
immigrant department of the Western
Passenger Association, has submitted
his report of the amount of business
done by this department in the last six
months. During that period 103,483
immigrants were sent through Chioago
to the West and Northwest, and the
business was so equalized that the
maximum difference between any of
the lines was only thirteen persons.
There were no devolpmenta in the
grain war, bat the general opinion is j
that rates will have to go lower. The
reduced rates which the -roads have
made during tho last ten days have
Drougni inem no increase in trafflo,
and they are beginning to think they
have not yet been reduced sufficiently
to bring oat the grain. A meeting of
general managers of Western lines will
be held this week to see if some way
cannot be devised by which rates can
be kept up and tho business soutired at
the same time.
IN A LONELY GULCH.
j Oklahoma Mail StKge Held Up by Utah -wayinen.
i
j Wichita, Kan., July 81. In a lonely
gulch several miles west of the village
i of Lacey, in the northern part of Okla
j homa territory, the regular mail stae
; was held up this afternoon by a band
i of outlaws, who rifled tho express and
I mail sacks, taking all the registered
letters and all the valuables carried by
j the two passengers in the coach. There
is little doubt that the robbery is the
work of the reorganized gang of Eill
Doolin, the condemned murderer and
j outlaw who escaped from jail at Gath
j rie several weeks ago with a dozen
j desperadoes and robbers. A big force
of United States marshals has been in
; pursuit of the outlaws ever since their
escape.
