Railroad and Council Censured. Coroner Breder held an inquest Monday at Hammonton over the bodies of Charles Benz and Giuseppe Janizzell, who were killed Sunday morning at

ifested in the case, as the unfortunate men were well-known heads of families and prominent members of an Italian beneficial society, numbering over five hundred members. The verdict of the jury was reached after examining a large number of witnesses and over an hour's deliberation, and concluded as

follows: "And the said jury hold the Atlantic City Railroad Company responsible for failure to provide adequate safety appliances at the Eleventh street crossing. The jury do hereby censure the Town Council at the town of Hammonton for failure to enforce the laws requiring safety appliances at all grade crossings within said town."

ATLANTIC CITY.

Charles Murray, proprietor of the

Hotel Metropole, on New York avenue, was arrested Monday, charged with selling liquor without a license, the

complaint being made by a recentlydischarged employee. Murray was held under bail for a further hearing.

Monday afternoon Clayton Seaman,

in attempting to stop a runaway horse attached to a wagon in which his young daughter was riding, was hurled to the ground, tramped upon by the horse, and run over by the heavy vehicle. His

face was crushed in, and he is believed to have sustained severe internal injuries. The child was thrown between the shafts when the team collided with

an awning post, and was kicked by the

horse, receiving painful bruises.

Recorder Gouldey, of this place, Friday fined Moses Goldman and John Robinson $150 each for violating the liquor license ordinance. Goldman

sold liquor at wholesale under a retail license, and Robinson did business

without any license at all. Goldman

paid his fine, but will likely serve thirty days in the county jail. United States District Attorney

White has been instructed to institute proceedings against Captain Hallinger, of the steamer Golden Gate, at Longport, for refusing to pay fines aggregating $410 imposed by Collector of

Customs Higbee. The Golden Gate had no authorized pilot, failed to carry a light, and did not endorse a change of masters. The steamer was also attached on Saturday by Deputy United

States Marshal Johnson, of Camden, on

a claim of $50 wharfage while lying at Starr's wharf, Camden. The boat was released late in the afternoon.

House Sergeant Miller and a squad of police Thursday afternoon raided a disorderly house at No. 5 Natter's alley, kept by Becky Winder, alias Bates, and arrested the proprietress, Annie Westcott, an inmate, and Peter Henry and Elmwood Walker, two visitors. Both men made desperate efforts to escape when the officers forced an entrance, and in leaping from a second-story window Henry fell upon a picket fence, one of the palings entering his ear and puncturing the drum. The city physician is attending him and his condition is reported serious. Walker fought the officers viciously.

Several properties in this city belonging to the estate of the late Wistar brothers, whose eccentricities made them famous, are advertising to be sold for unpaid taxes on September 24th. The aggregate amount of the city's claim is $269.04, and the estimated value of the seven properties named is over $75,000. The contest over the will of Richard Wistar and other pending litigation may develop an interesting question as to who shall foot these tax bills.

Fifty-four hundred excursionists arrived Saturday morning, about 1000 of them being employees of the Bergner & Engel Brewing Company, of Philadelphia. The greater number of them came from Harrisburg, Reading, Lebanon, Phoenixville, and other Pennsyl-

vania towns.

Half of Atlantic City's life guards went off duty Sunday. The remainder serve until the 15th. Captain Parker discharged Guards Vannote, Sooy and Lindsay Saturday for being intoxicated while on duty. While entering the Inlet on Saturday the Schooner Mary Ella, Captain Swift, from Haverstraw, with brick, grounded on the Inlet bar. She was floated off without damage at high water. PORT REPUBLIC. The Peach Sociable for the benefit of the brass band was well attended. Mrs. Eunice Jackson, of Philadelphia, is visiting her many relatives and friends here, by whom she is cordially welcomed. Her youngest son, Fred, has been spending most of the summer here with Mrs. Alice Blake's family. Willie, the eldest son of Ebenezer Adams, of Philadelphia, in company with his cousin, Laura Adams, of Absecon, visited his uncle, Elmer Adams,

last week.

The relatives and friends of Joseph L. Cake, formerly of this place but now a resident of Pittston, Pa., are anxiously awaiting the result of a very serious attack of what his friends here suppose to be apoplexy. Late Saturday evening a telegram reported no improvement in his condition. Mrs. Eliza Cake, widow of the late Joseph P. Cake, is lying seriously ill at her son Ashley's home. Her daughter, Mrs. Sally Rice, is in attendance. Mrs. Hattie Johnson's condition does not improve, although her suffering is very much alleviated by her sister-in-law's trained nursing. Miss Marette Frambes left home last Saturday morning to finish a business course at the Pierce College, Philadel-

phia.

Our public school opened Tuesday last.

The private school will open on the 10th instant.

Miss Midie Collins, of whom we feel quite proud as a scholar, (hers being the highest average in the county) left last Monday to take charge of her department in the public school at Smith's Landing. We predict for Miss Collins a successful future.

Mrs. Freas and her grand-daughter have left for their New York home.

Mr. Levi Hewitt visited here last week. Poor Jimmie Rose had a struggle of it getting three umbrellas, three grips, a trunk and a lap full of big bundles over to New Gretna. He started with the owner of the aforesaid articles in his road cart, but breaking down returned for his express wagon, in which he managed to reach the end of his journey; he remembering all the way that the reward is for the faithful. This thought cheered him and developed lots of patience, which will be of immense value to him in the future.

A Camden party of jolly and refined young people are guests at Mrs. Elizabeth Clark's.

Mrs. Lizzie Wagner and her two lovely children are visiting her mother. Mrs. Fletcher, the evangelist, has left here on her way to New York.

A Million a Year. Much has been written and said about advertisers and advertising, but it is perhaps not generally known that, not only is the greatest amount of advertising done in America, but that the largest personal advertiser is an Ameri-

can. Several houses both in Europe and America, spend upwards of half a million dollars per year in advertising, but the advertiser referred to has actually expended during the past year over a million of dollars wholly in advertising. The vast sum of money has not been squandered, but has been carefully, judiciously, scientifically expended, and it has paid a profit of fifty cents on every dollar expended. Here is certainly a valuable lesson for those who advertising or have advertising in contemplation. It shows that half-hearted attempts at wooing the Goddess of Fortune by advertising are not profitable, and that even extended efforts are unprofitable unless done systematically, scientifically, and with the greatest care and judgment. It is not our purpose to give the name of this advertiser, who, besides being the largest one in the world, is certainly the most retiring and modest, but we may say, incidentally, that he is the projector of the pre-digested food, Paskola, which, however, is only a small part of the business transacted by this concern. Men of this special genius are rare, and the success which attends their efforts still rarer, but such success shows what can be accomplished by well conceived plans and superior effort.

FATAL RAILROAD WRECK. The Ocean City Excursion Train Crashes into One from Atlantic City--Two Killed and Several Injured.

A fatal rear-end collision occurred at the Van Hook street crossing of the West Jersey Railroad, in South Camden, at 7.52 Sunday evening, between the Ocean City and Atlantic City excursion trains.

Two people were killed and a number of passengers were injured. None of the latter were injured seriously and the majority of them went to their homes before their identity could be ascertained.

The dead are Thomas Carter, 44 years old, of 533 Glenwood avenue, Philadelphia; Edgar Van Lieu, 6 years old, of 32 High street, Trenton, N. J.

The following were among the injured: Jacob S. Van Lieu, father of Edgar Van Lieu, suffering greatly from shock, and from painfully lacerated wounds of his legs. Charles O'Keefe, of Thirtieth and Master streets, Philadelphia, scalp cut, his head being thrust through the car window. Charles Gaunt, residence unknown, slightly injured. A drug clerk in the employ of Dr. Lippincott, at Fifth and Benson streets, Camden, slightly injured.

The accident was one of those unfortunate affairs which are caused by a misunderstanding of signals when a moment's time would have saved the fatal collision. The Atlantic City excursion train over the West Jersey Railroad left the seashore at 6 p. m., and was a few moments late when Van Hook street was reached. It was delayed there by a signal, and when released had just gotten under way when, without warning, the Ocean City ex-

cursion train, running in on time, ran

into the rear end.

The engineer of the latter train tried his best to reduce the force of the col-

lision when he saw it was inevitable, and then jumped with his fireman, landing heavily on the ground, but es-

caping injury.

The locomotive of the Ocean City train ploughed its way half through the rear car of the Atlantic City excursion train, tearing everything away and grinding the life out of Thomas Carter and Edgar Van Lieu. Charles O'Keefe, in his desperation, thrust his head through the car window and sustained the injuries noted. The story of the death of little Edgar Van Lieu was told by his father, after his wounds had been dressed. He was in the care of ex-Coroner Jeffris, and was suffering greatly from shock and grief at the tragic killing of his child. Mrs. Van Lieu was there also, bravely bearing the loss suddenly thrust upon her. Van Lieu is a clerk in the employ of the United States Express Company at Trenton, and a brother-in-law of "Bert" Knowles, rear brakeman of the Atlantic City train. Van Lieu, with his wife and child, were visiting Mrs. Knowles at 521 Clinton street, and Van Lieu took his child to Atlantic City on the excursion train Sunday morning. They had a most enjoyable day, and, coming home, were seated in the rear car, about two seats from the back end. "When we reached Van Hook street crossing," said Mr. Van Lieu, "we were stopped by the red signal, which showed there was something in the 'block' ahead of us. Knowles, the rear brakeman, got out and went back to flag the train which was following. "Pretty soon the train started again and was just going out of the 'block' when the locomotive of the Ocean City train was upon us before we had time to think. The cowcatcher tore its way through our car, tearing my boy from my grasp and carrying him under the heavy timbers. I held on to the window with all my strength and somehow or other was forced through the window. "In a few moments--it seemed hours --the terrible grinding and crashing ceased, and I was picked up and carried to the drug store. I had lost sight of my boy, and did not know what had become of him until I arrived there, when I saw his dead body. The life had just been crushed out of him." There were only fifteen people in the car, and this fact probably saved several lives. Fortunately most of the passengers were towards the front and escaped entirely, or with but slight

bruises.

Thomas Carter was on one of the rear seats, and was caught under the cowcatcher and dragged in much the same manner that little Edgar Van Lieu was. The locomotive of the Ocean City train lost her smokestack by the collision, and the head of the boiler was torn out. The cowcatcher was damaged, but not broken. The car containing the unfortunates, who were killed and injured, was badly smashed at the rear. The trucks were carried away and the floor and sides were reduced to

kindling wood.

Immediately after the crash a number of willing hands went to work to hunt for the injured and the first one brought from beneath the wreck was the child. He was found by William Bruckey, who carried the little fellow to the drug store of Dr. J. Bicker, where

he lived but a few moments.

The Camden Police Department was notified and Chief Dodd despatched both of the patrol wagons to the scene of the wreck, and a search was commenced for the killed and injured. They succeeded in finding Thomas Carter jammed between the engine and the tracks and he was taken to Cooper Hospital with all possible speed, but died before reaching that institution. The passengers on the Ocean City train left the cars at the Ferry Avenue station and took the trolley cars to the

Federal Street Station.

A short time after the accident a wrecking train, with a crew, were despatched to the scene, and in a short time the road was cleared and travel resumed.

At the railroad office, Trainmaster Sparks stated at a late hour Sunday night that they were unable to fix the responsibility for the disaster. He stated that Engineer Stratton, of the Ocean City excursion train, said that he failed to see any signal from the rear brakeman, and claims that the only signal he saw was the white light, indicating that the road was clear. Bert Knowles, the rear brakeman of the Atlantic excursion train, stated that his train was in the "block," and that he was several car lengths away from the train, and that the Ocean City train had given two short blasts in recogni-

tion of the danger signal.

Thomas Selver, who is in charge of the telegraph station at Van Hook

street, stated that he had "blocked" the

Atlantic City train on account of

another train being "blocked" at Had-

don Avenue Station.

At 7.52 he got an order to release the Atlantic City excursion train, and had given them the white light, indicating to the engineer that the "block was clear, and he claims that the operator at Gloucester City should have held the Ocean City train at Gloucester until he

had given them the signal that his "block" was clear.

Frank Jaggard, the fireman of the Ocean City train, jumped from the engine and landed in a ditch, uninjured. Theodore Stratton, the engineer, also left his engine before the crash came, and escaped uninjured. Conductor James Newell, of the Ocean City train, said that when he passed Gloucester City, the "block" signal there indicated that the track was clear on the "block" ahead, and he did not know otherwise until the crash came. Fireman Jaggar also said that the signals were set at safety. The West Jersey officials are making a rigid investigation as to who is responsible for the wreck and loss of life at the Van Hook street crossing. Pending the investigation, Superintendent

Dayton has suspended the engineer

and conductor of the Ocean City excur-

sion train and the rear brakeman of the Atlantic City excursion train, until the investigation of the case by Coroner

Justice.
