FREDERICK DOUGLASS GIVES A STAR REPORTER A BRIEF ACCOUNT OF HI3 ELEVEN MONTHS’ TOUR ABROAD. Mr. Frederick Douglass returned home last even- ing from a tour of eleven months in Europe. His wife, who had accompanted him on his trip, came over two weeks ago on account of sickness in her family. Mr. Douglass’ health has been good, and he returns Very much pleased with what he has seen and heard while abroad. In conversation with a Sta reporter this morning Mr. Douglass said that he had a very pleasant trip. “You may say,” he added, “that on no occasion during my long absence Was there any indication by word, look or action that I was less thought of or re- garded on account of my color. Even Americans greeted me cordially, and I ‘can say that the American abroad is a very delightful person to meet. ‘In England I had the pleasure of meeting old friends whom I_knew thirty or forty years ago. Then from England I went to Paris, where I remained two months, and was very much interested in this clever and attractive peo- ple. I went from there to Nice, Genoa, Rome, Naples, and taking boat went to Catro, Egypt. In. Egypt I passed the greater part of last winter, and found the climate delightful. I took my seventy years and my 230 pounds to the top of the highest ‘pyramid, and when I reached the top 1 wished heartily that Iwas at the bottom. ‘There were two Arabs pulling me in front and Arabs pushing me behind, but when I reached the top I Was completely played out. ‘The ruins of Mem- phis and other ancient cities interested me greatly, and after examining the smoothly hewn blocks of stone and the exact masonry, I concluded that we ‘are not able to excell the ancients in the construc- Uon of buildings, although it is supposed that our facilities for such work are far superior. ‘Then I went to Greece and visited Athens, and saw the grove where Socrates walked and’ talked, the Stadia where the games were held, and ascended the Lill where Paul, surrounded with the evi- dences of the culture and intelligence of the city, had the boldness to tell them that they were superstitious.” “Oh! well,” said Mr. Douglass, breaking off sud- denly, “I can't begin to tell You all Isaw and what’ think about it all. You can say that Mr. Douglass has had a good time and enjoyed his trip immensely.” ——-_—_ ‘The New Regulations. CASES OF VIOLATION OF THEM IN THE POLICE COURT ‘TO-DAY.

An Excursion Train Falls Through a Bridge. ‘THE CARS ARE TELESCOPED AXD OVER ONE HUNDRED PERSONS ARR KILLED—THE FULL NUMBER OF WOUNDED CANNOT BE YET TOLD—HEARTRENDING SCENES AND INCIDENTS. Later dispatches give additional particulars ot the terrible railroad disaster which was mentioned in Tue Star yesterday. One hundred and eighteen 4s the number now reported as dead, and 1t is said ‘that four hundred are badly hurt, The train was composed of six sleeping cars, six day coaches and chair cars and three baggage cars. It was carry- ing nine hundred and sixty passengers, all excur- siontsts, and was bound for Niagara Falls. The train was so heavy that two engines were hitched toit, and when it passed Forest, IIL, it wasan hour and a half behind time. Chatsworth, the next station east, is 6 miles off, and the run there was made in 7 minutes, ‘Three miles east of Chatsworth 1s a little slough, and where the railroad crosses a dry run about 1 feet deep and 15 feet wide. Over this Was stretched an ordinary Wooden trestie bridge, and as the ex- cursion train came thundering down on it, what ‘Was the horror of the engineer on the front engine when he saw that ‘THE BRIDGE WAS AFIRE? Right up before his eyes leaped the bright flames, and the next instant he was among them. There was no chance to stop. Had there been Warning It would have taken half a mile to stop. The train was within 100 yards of the red-tongued messengers of death before they flashed thelr fatal signals into the engineer's face. But he passed over in safety, the first engine keeping the rails, As it went over the bridge fell beneath 11 ‘and it could only have been the terrific speed of the train which saved the lives of theengineer and his fireman. But the next engine went down, and car crashed into car, coaches piled one on top of another, and in the twinkling of an eye nearly 100 people found instant death, and 50 more were so hurt they could not live. AS for the wounded, they were everywhere, Only the sleeping coaches escaped, and_as the startled _half-dressed passen- gers came tumbling after them they found such a Scene of death as 1s rarely witnessed, and such work to do that it seemed as if human hands were utterly incapable. It lacked but five minutes of midnight. First there were piled the three bag- gage cars, one on top of another. Then came the Six day cdaches, ‘THEY WERE TELESCOPED, and three of them were pressed into just space enough forone. The second carhad mounted off its trucks, crashed through the car ahead of it crushing the woodwork aside like tinder, and lay there resting on the tops of theseats, while every passenger In the front car was lying dead or dying underneath. Out of that car but four people came alive. On top of the second car lay the third, and its bottom was smeared With the blood of its vic tims, The other three cars were not so badly crushed, but they were broken and twisted in every conceivable way, and every crushed timber and beam represented 4 crushed human frame and a broken bone. Instantly the air was filed with the cries of the wounded and the shrieks of those about to die. FIGHTING THE FIRE. And there was another terrible danger yet to be met. ‘The bridge was still burning, and the wrecked. cars were lying on the flercely-burning embers. Everywhere in the wreck were wounded and un- rt men, Women, and children, Whose lives could be saved ‘if they ‘could be gottén out, but whose death was certain if the twisted wood of the broken cars caught fire. And to fight the fire there was not a drop of water and only some fifty able-bodied men who still had presence of mind and nerve enough to do thelr duty. The only light was the light of the burning bridge, and With so much of its ald the fifty men went to work to fight the flames, For four hours they fought lke ‘flends, and for four hours the Victory hung in the balance. Earth was the only weapon with which ‘the fire could be fought, and so the attempt was made to Smother it’out. There was no pick or shovel to dig 1t up, no baskets or barrows to carry it, and so desperate were they that they dug thelr fingers down into the earth, and with this earthwork, built handful by handful, kept back the foe. 80 they dug up the earth with their hands, reckless of the blood streaming out from broken fnger- nails, and heaping It up in little mounds, while all the While came the heart-rending cry, “For God's sake, don’t let us burn to death.” But finally the victory was won, the fire was put out after four THE VOLUNTEER WINS AGAIN.

It Was a good wholesall breeze. ‘The Volunteer, Atlantic and Puritan came up abreast like three White-uniformed grenadiers ‘The Volunteer was to windward, and the pride of Bay Ridge between her and the original Burgess success, They crossed. thus; Puritan, 11:31:02; Volunteer, 11:31:05. The Volunteer began her favorite pastime of dancing to windward and getting ahead, and immediately after crossing she dropped the Atlantic rapidly, and easily outfooted the Puritan, The ambition of the Atlantic to keep up her end in the tussle for Windward position caused her skipper vo pinch her too hard. While she was staggering and pointing high, the matchless steel craft was smoking along and pointing higher. ‘The Puritan went far to the eastward on the starboard tack until her hull was invisible. A half dozen steamboats kept her com- pany. The Priscilla went about first, and was followed by the Volunteer and Atlantic, ‘The Volunteer went about at_noon and crossed the bows of she Atlantic at least half a mile to windward. She took down her jibtopsail, which was somewhat larger than the baby ‘sails of her sister sloops, at 12:04. It was apparently not helping her any. ‘The three in-shore giants made a succession of Short tacks, the steel wonder in- creasing her weather advantage after every one. After standing on the starboard tack to the east- ‘Ward for fifty minutes the Puritan came about, weathering the Mayflower by nearly a third of & mile, ‘The ex-champion Was evidently not as well handled as she might have been. ‘The Volunteer again weathered the Atlantic at 12:40, this time by about a mile, and the rriscilia by a mile and a half, At 12:58 the Volunteer crossed the bow of the Puritan two miles to windward. ‘The wind Was now strong, and still from the northwest. ‘The Volunteer reunded the flag at 1:27:30 to such a discordant medley of roars and bangs and toots as has never been heard in Marblehead harbor. whe Atlantic rounded at 5, the Puritan at 5, the Priscilla at 55, and the May- flower at 1:43:15. ‘The Puritan’s long board to the eastward gave the Bay Ridge boat several minutes. advantage of her. ‘The schooner Sachem beat the Troquols to the windward mark 5 minutes and 8 seconds, ‘The cutter Bedouin carried away her topmast shrouds. Her topmast bent like a reed, and was saved only by clever management, She rounded the mark notwithstanding the mishap, Dut being unable to set her club topsall, she was compelled to withdraw. ‘The Fanny rounded at 2:05:10, the Gracie at 2:08:50, and the Huron at 25, ‘vo thé next mark, 12 miles to the eastward, the wind was on the starboard quarter. Balloon’ jib- topsails were set on all the big sloops. ‘The May- flower unsuccessfully experimented with her splonaker, ‘The forerunner of the squall—a ight, ‘shower of rain—came up as the Volunteer rounded the second mark at 00. ‘The Puritan jived around at 2:5 the Aulantic at 2:54:02, the Priscilla at 2: and the Mayflower at 2:57:29. ‘The Puritan inade’ this run in 1:14—12 seconds faster than the Mayflower, 1:18 faster than the Volunteer, 1:35 faster than'the Priscilla, and faster than the Atlanuc. ‘The Volunteer miscaicu- lated the position of the mark, steered too nigh and had to cover more water than her followers, Which saw her mistake and cut across lots. ‘The Volunteer crossed tne Mulsh line at 3:50:54. ‘The Puritan and Atlanuc hada hot race, but the Puritan got to the line first by just twenty seconds, crossing at 3 , the Atlantic's tine delng 3:5 ‘The Priscilia crossed at 4:02; and the Mayflower at 4:04:08. ‘The last_twel iniles was covered by the Volunteer in 1:07:54; by Uhe Puritan, 1:05:18; AUantic, 1: Priscilla, 1:07:30; Mayflower, 1:06:39. hours of endeavor, and as its last sparks died away a light came up in the east to take their place and dawn came upon a scene of horror. REMOVING THE DEAD AND WOUNDED. While the fight had been going on, men had been dying, and there were not so many wounded to take out of the wreck as there had been four hours before. But in the meantime the country had been aroused; help had come from Chatswortl Forest and Piper City, and as the dead were lat reverently alongside of each other in the cornfield, there were ready hands to take them into Chats- Worth, while some of the wounded were carried to Piper City. One hundred an eighteen was the awful poll of the dead, while the wounded num- ber four times that many. The full tale of the dead, cannot, however, be told yet for days. A HEARTRENDING INCIDENT. There was one incident of the accident which stood out more horrible than all of those horrible seenes, In the second coach was a man, his wife and child, His name could not be learned, When the ‘ident occurred the entire family of three Was caught and held down by broken woodwork. Finally, when relief came, the man turned to the friendly rescuers and feebly swfld: “Take out my wife fir: "im afraid the child is dead.” So they carried off the motier, and as a broken seat was taken off her crushed breast the blood which welled from her lips told how badly she was hurt. They carried the chiid, a fair-haired, blue- eyed girl of three, and laid her in the corntleld, dead, alongside of her dying motuer, Then they Went back for the father and brought him out, Both his legs were broken, but he crawled through tue corn to the side of his dying wife, and, feeling her loved features in the darkness, pressed some brandy to her lips and asked her how she felt. A feeble groan was the only answer, and the next instant she died. The man felt the forms of his dead wife and child and cried out: “My God, there 1s nothing more for me to live for now,” and taking a pistol out of his pocket pulled the trigger. The bullet went surely through his brain, and the turee dead bodies of that little family are now lying side by side in Chatsworth waiting to be fdentitied. ‘A PASSENGER'S GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION. Mr. J. M. Tierney was in the first sleeper, said: “1 felt three distinct shocks and then heard a grinding sound, and, on looking out, saw that the car in Which we were was directly over the fire, Which was slowly blazing on the stringers of the bridge. 1 got out safely and the scene presented to the eye and ear was one I wish I could forever efface from tay memory; but I know I never can, ‘The shricks of the dying and the glaring faces of the dead will always stay with me. To add so the horror, it was pitch dark, save the fitful light of ‘the fire under the sleeper, which lighted the faces of those about, only to make their fear and ai guish visible. “On the mouths of most of the cor could be seen foam, Which showed that they died in agony. At last we secured feeble. Paes but the wind blew them out, and about 2 o'clock the rain poured down in torrents on the unprotected dead and dying in the hedges and cornfields adjacent. Our efforts were divided between trying to put out the fire and rescuing the dying, whose cries for help were heartrending indeed. Mothers ran wildly about crying for lost children, and wives for hus- bands. Strong men were weeping over the forms. of their beloved wives; prayers, entreaties and groans filled the air until daylight, when rejiet parties got to work and removed the dead and wounded from the sce es Boston Graves Invaded. WORKMEN FITCHING THE SKELETONS INTO THE PUB- LIC STREETS. A Boston special to the Philadelphia Press, Au- gust 10, says: A horrible desecration of the graves of the dead 1s going on in the heart of Boston Burlal vaults have been ruthlessly broken open skeletons of blue-blood Bostonians have been dragged forth by rude hands and skulls and other parts have been sold vo the careless passer-by. The place where this ts being done 1s on Boylston street, directly opposite the Boston Public Library. Something like a week ago the Edison Electric Company began to dig a trench along Boylston street froin "Charles “to Tremont for the pur- pos: of laying their wires, As the work men ascended the ill they encountered the tops of the graves and vaults, which extend from the burlal-ground on the ‘common under the Mall and into Boylston street. ‘These graves Were made of brick, and as they came quite near to the surface they’ interfered with the work, but did not hinder its progress. Pickaxe and shovel were pul to work, the roofs of the graves were broken in and their contents thrown out on the side of the street. with earth, brick, und stones, Scattered alt along the side of the trefich, may be seen leg, thigh, and arm bones. Some ot these He bones have been hung upon the fence on the Com- mon, where they are the subjects of scurrilous ests and are pointed out by the conductors of rse-cars LO the passengers. A workman named Dolan sold one of the skulls for fifty cents this morning to a Young man, who sald he was a ta vard medical Student, Another skull was carried off in triumph by a horge-car conductor. The others have disappeared, But one of the workmen promised to sell the next one found to a reporter.

HIS CONFIDENCE IN THE THISTLE SHAKEN. Alderman Ure, of Glasgow, Scotland, arrived in New York yesterday by the City of Chester. He ‘was asked how the people of hs city regarded the ‘Thistie’s chances to win the America’s cup. “Our people were very hopeful when I left, and were willing to wager on tie new boat. But trom what Ihave read in the papers, recelvéd from the pilot about the Volunteer, I incline to te belief that tze confidence I saw exhibited as been more or less shaken. I still believe, however, that the race will be a pretty one.” - se MCGARIGLE TO BE INDICTED IN CANAD: {real special tothe New York Zripunesa cago “boodler,” McGarigle, will be Indicted here be- fore a grand Jury on a charge of conspiracy,and a Dench Warrant Will be issued for his arrest.” It is hoped soon to have a territorial magistrate ving in Ottawa, who will be beyond the influence of provincial prejudice and who will not refuse to in- Gorse a Warrant When the law authorizes him to 10.80, CITY ITEMS.
