The Virginia Midland passenger train due here at 9:40 o'clock last night, but which was a little late owing to a land slide, ran into street car No. 71 of the Washington ana Georgetown line on the crossing at Maryland avenue and 7th street south- west. The street car was on its way toward the wharf, and the Midland train was on tts way to- ward the 6th street depot. Tue street car had seven passengers aboard and was struck about midway, throwing {t to the east side of the east track of the street and staving In its side, break- ing the wheels, windows, fender, and injuring all seven of the passengers more or less, some of them quite seriously, a8 well as the driver and con- juctor. ‘The horses became detached tn some way, and ran away to the stables on Water street. The engineer at once stopped his train, Dut too late to mend matters. None of the passengers of the street car were, however, so aiiiy injured 2s to prevent them walking, (some | being supported by others) to the office of Dr. | Leach, on 7ta st., where, assisted by Drs. Fenwick x, all Were attended to, and afterwards sent to their homes. The driver of the street car was John T. Nolan, who was dragged over the fender by the horses when they broke loose, and daily Injured. .'The passenger worst injured was Mr. Frank Palmer, about 2% years old, who ap- peared to be seriously hurt about the face, head, and arms. Mr. EJ. Z Burns, keeper of a shoe store on Pennsylvania avenue, was seriously hurt in the left side. Wm. Connors, a brick layer, who was in te car was badly brulsed, but. his Injuries ely tocontine him.’ Mr. Win. Tucker, the well kilown pump maker, of South Washing” ton, was badly injured about the legs. Mr. Edw. Weser, the well known oyster dealer, was badly bruised and shook up. He fs an elderly man, and it may prove a serious affair to him. William Nallager, a boy about thirteen years old, living on D street, near 13th street, was slightly cut on the temple and face. ‘The engine was No. 38 and William Fleming the engineer, with John Beavers, fireman, and 1s re- ported by the passengers on’ the street car and others to have been running at a fast rate of speed. The flagman stationed at that point, an old man named Ahern, states that he ran before the streetcar with his flag and halloed to the driver to stop; that the driver took no nouce of him, or did not appear to. ‘The bell of the engine, he also states, was ringing, and there was n0 ex- cuse for the action of the driver. ‘The conductor of the Midland train was named Fisher. Finding |. no one was killed the conductor ordered the train to proceed to tie depot on 6th street. Detective MeDevitt put Engineer Fleming” under ar- Test at once, but afterwards consented that he would release him long enough to drive his engine back to Alexandria, where he had orders to go with {t, and_provided -he would appear at police headquarters. He did not put in an appearance at headquarters this morning, and an oMcer was directed to go to the B. and P. son for it. He was informed by the officers of the road that Mr. Fleming would be on hand whenever it became necessary by any investiga- tion which may follow, but that the fault was en- tirely with the street car line, the driver not taking any heed of the signaling made. gue ee Death of Joseph L, Pearson.

A $5,000 BOND MISSING—NO CLUE TO THE BOND OR THE THIEF. A United States registered bond of the denomt- nation of $5,000 was stolen from the office of the Register of the U. 8. Treasury more than ten days ago. Since then the secret service force of the ‘Treasury have been active in an endeavor to re- cover the bond and discover the thief. As yet neither object has been accomplished. The rob- bery has been kept quiet, in the hope thata clue to the theft would be uncovered. Special secret: service detective A. Drummond has been assigned specially to the work of turning up the gullty par- ties. The bond was one which was exchanged froma 34 to a8 per cent, and is complete in all its details. To negotiate it, however, the thief will have to fot the name of the pemon in whose favor it ts issue ‘The Secretary of the Treasury, through the secret service division, has notific | the leading banks in the country of the theft, anu ‘iven them the name of the person to whom the nd should have been issued. Even if the bond is fraudulently negotiated neither the government nor the person to whom it should have n issued willloose anything, for the reason that the United States will not jleem it, and it will issue a dupli- “eate to the person entitled to it.

Giles B, Harber, under date of Yakutsk, June 224d, as follows: “Since my letter of the 12th, I have come to Yakutsk in the schooner in which I will make the search along the coast and fslands. When three hundred miles from Yakutsk, 1 passed the steamer in which Chief eer Melville and pert, were going to Irkutsk, but did not know hat they were on board. At Olekma, Mr. Mel- ville received a letter which I had left for him in ease of passing on the river, and he sent James Bartlett to join our party. He also sent a letter telling me what work he had done, and stating that Bartlett had assisted in the search and knew all details, Lieut. Berry, who was also on the steamer, ordered Ensign Hunt to report tome. I believe these will be valuable assistants. The doctor having pro- nounced Henry Wilson unfit to continue in the search, I ordered Wilson to join Mr. Melville, that he might return home. We leave here at once.

Study todo faithfully whatsoever things in your actual situation, then and now, you find ex- lie pressly or tacitly laid down to your charge. “That is your post; stand in it like a true sol- dier. Silently devour the many chagrins of it—all sit- uations have many—and see you aim not to quit it with- out doing all thatis your duty.” To this sage’s sage advice we might add: Keep Sanronp’s Grxger con- stantly at hand, for ite daily use will invigorate brain and brawn and make labor a blessing and study a delight.
