MISHAP TO A CAR IN MIDAIR
Thrilling Accident on a Tennes
see Aerial Cable.
ONE KILLED AND SEVFRAL IIDRT.
Imprisoned Passengers Lowered
to tho River bj a Tiopo.
Knoxville, Tenn., Feb. 19. One
killed and. several slightly Injured is
the result of a thrilling accident In this
city Sunday. The drawing cable of au
aerial car snapped in two, leaving the
car and passengers 200 feet in mid-air,
while the broken end of the cable
smashed through tho frail box, filled
with humanity, to do its deadly work.
At its highest point tho car is nearly
300 feet above tho Tennessee river. A
car which would hold perhaps 20 peoplo
hung suspended from tho heavy cables,
five feet apart and I J Inches In diameter
The engine-house was located on tbo
north bauk and tho car was hauled
to the dizzy height by an endless
cable, 1 of an inch thick, which would
around two drums. Tho car carried
many passengers and made its last
trip about A o'clock. Seven people
were iu it, besides C. F. Lewis, who
Htood at the brake. When within 100
ftet of tho bluif the drawing cable
snapped. Near tho center of tho river
and fully 2000 feet from It, its progress
was suddenly checked as the broken
end of tho cable wound itself, like a
huge serpent around the car. There
the car und passengers hung for nearly
two hours.
LOWERED BY KOl'KS.
The employes seemed dazed aud It
was sometime before a long ropo was
secured. This wns slipped down the
cable to tho car and u steamer an
chored Itself uuderneath. Will Klb
bley, a boy, was the first to helot down,
and the crowd cheered lustily as he
was safely landed. Next came Miss
Alice Wardoll. who stood tho shock
bravely. Doubly loud they cheered
her safe arrival. Tho belief gained
ground that no one had been hurt, but
those familiar knew otherwise, for In
the car above Oliver Ledgerwood laid
dying, his llfo blood oozing from two
ugly wounds in the head. He had
gone with Miss Wardell, his flnanceo,
on the novel trip which euded so dis
astrously. One by one tho passengers
were let.down until the car was cleared.
When Ledgerwood reached the
boat a surgeon pronounced his Injuries
fatal, aud In less than ten minutes he
was dead. HIb skull was fractured In
two places. Fred MoBoo, another
passenger, BUilered a severe injury to
one leg, while Henry Hooher's right
arm was badly hurt. Hugh Kule.a boy,
was standing near tho engine house
when the cable broke, and was struck
by the end aud was seriously hurt.
Ledgerwood was a promising young
lawyer. He leaves a widowed mother.
was tub cable out?
Beforo the coroner's jury tonight, J,
E. Patton, one of tho lessees ,and part
owner of the cable line, made the sen
sational statement, under oath, that he
believed the cable bad Dcen out. tuo
matter will be fully Investigated.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
FIGHTING THE PEERS.
It Is Thought the Queen Will Inter
pose a Compromise.
London, Feb. 19. Tho liberal plan
is to triumph over tho peers by com
pelling them to abaudou (heir amend
ment to the parish councils bill. They
are hopeful cf success, but thoy muy
experience a sharp set-back next-week.
It Is not Improbable that tho peers will
declare their adhesion to certain points
which tho government considers Im
possible Tho conservatives in the
house of commons havo' surrendered
much, but not all quostlous concerning
the control of charities, Tho allot
mnuts, tlio poor law and boards ot
guardians, aud tho reform of the
London vestries are still bones of con
tention between tho government nnd
tho opposition. These questions must
be settled lu the government's favor
befoiu tho liberals can truthfully boat
of compelling the assent of tho pet in
to tho program of the commons. 11
Lord Salisbury should concede every
thing involved in tho dUpute,ho would
do so probably iu defereuco to tho per
sonal wishes of tho queen, who h
known to dread mi opeu conflict be
tween the two houses. She is convinced
that such a conflict would cuiso a uni
versal clamor for tho abolition of the
hereditary law-makers, and tho same
conviction has ere this caused her to in
terfere, uotably lu 1834, whou the
two houses quarrelled spriously
over the redistribution of seats
uudor tho franchise reform. Tho queen
then summoned tho Dukeof Richmond
and uipdo him au Intermediary for the
settlement of the questions ut Isstio bo
twoen Lord Salisbury and Mr. Glad
stone. Since then popular dislike oi
tho hereditary privileges of tho upper
houso aud the royal family have be
come so Intensified that If an attack
upon these privileges bo once fairly or
ganized it would soon altecl tho prerog
atives of tho crown. For these reasons
the queen's Iniluonco has beep exerted
already to luduco the tory peers to'act
with greater prudence.
