It was 2:30 o'clock to-day when Judge Harper, of the Police Court, resumed the hearing of the case of Dr, Crawford. Mr.C, Maurice Smith, for the defendant, continued his it. He re- ferred to the discrepancy between witnesses a3 vo what was said by Dr. Crawford about the events after the excursion. ‘The doubt was solved by defendant that he took Eva to the porch of her father’s house, ‘He then referred to the letter which had dis- turbed Mr. Lipscomb and had misled him, “What is this letter?” he asked. “It it a confessionr” ‘and he read the proceedings as to ite tn which he quoted counsel as saying, first, that the letter was not a confession, and afterward that it was an admission. He cot not carry water on both shoulders, ‘Then he read the letter and the cross-examina- {on of Crawford on it, in which the Government had sought to make him admft that he had com- mitted the crime chai He denied that the nrase““d— b—" meant what Mr. Lipscomb claimed, it may have meant beat “I am certain your father will forgive you,” he quoted, and he asked would an honorable father forgive the disgrace of ‘his child? It was true that the meetings were clandestine, and that the defendant was mak- ing love. ‘Was every person to be con- victed because meetings took place without the parents consent? Then farewell to reputa- Uons. He quoted, “I am a total wreck,” and said the saying was that everything was fair in law and war. Could they say that this proved the act?

A TERRIBLE DISASTER. BAD SMASH-UP AT THE Y. A Baltimore and Ohie Express Tele- scopes a Brick Signal Tower. (THR TRAIN, FLYING AT LIGHTNING SPEED, LEAVES THE ‘TRACK AND CRASHES THROUGH THE BUILDING—THE ENOINEEE KILLED AND MANY PROFLE INJURED—THE ACCIDENT ATTRIBUTED TO A FAILURE OF TUS AIR BRAKES—DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT AND A LIST OF ‘THE URED. ‘The few restdents in the neighborhood of the ‘Baltimore and Ohio “y,” who were up and on the street at 6:30 o'clock this morning witnessed 0 singular and scene, It was no less a Spectacie than that of a train of cars leaping from ‘the track and rushing with the speed of lightning and the erash of a thunderbolt through a brick house. In an instant the train and the house distance was littered with debris, ‘WHISTLING “DOWN BRAKES.” ‘The train to which this accident occurred was ‘train No. 4, coming trom the West, due here at 6:20, About 6:30itcame thundering into the city over the Metropolitan Branch, and, at the curve, nearly @ mile away from the “Y,” began ‘whistling “down:brakes.” For some reason the Drakes were not put down. ‘The air-brakes, it was Stated, did nos work, and the engineer began Diowing his distress whistle for the brakeman to on the regular brakes, Either the brakeman not heed the OF tt was ‘Wot given it UUme to be of use, for e train, Aying at a Iright- on’ toward the ‘On the south side of the ¥, in {he little corner made by the intersection of the tracks, was located the railroad signal-tower, a brick structure three stories high, where railroad men are emplo; ‘to regulate t! Switches at they = ful rate, came thund curve at the Y. FLEW THE TRACK. ‘When the train turned the sharp curve of the Y, With fearful headway the cars behind the engine flew the track and smashed into the signal tower andin-an instant there was a wreck, which for confusion has seldom been equalled ‘in railroad Snnalg, The engine was Gragged from the track, and, ploughing through thedirt and mud a dis- ance of 150 ret, rolled completely over. ‘There itlay, giving forth its steam and hot water in great jets, ‘The steam plowed up the dirt and cov- Gred the house in front of the engine with a fine layer of yellow mud that looked lke a fresh coatof paint, The steam and water were blown through the house, and some of the inmates were badly scalded. Under the engine lay Hamil- ton Broseus, the engineer, crushed and dying, and. histireman with several bones broken, But behind ‘the engine was a scene of PANIC AND CONFUSION. One car was crushed and nearly buried under the bricks and timbers of the demolished build- 1g, ‘Two sleeping coaches and one passenger coach remained on the track. ‘The mail car, the express car and the baggage car were rolled over aud their sides were crushed. The roof of one car rotruded from the ruins of the building. The Uisaster, of course, at’ once created intense excite. ment. A fre alarm was sounded, which quickly Drought the fire department and tbe police pe ge pe corps of physicans came, summoned from’ every direction, ‘TAKING THE INJURED FROM THE DEBRIS. Firemen, policemen, railroad men, and citizens went to work with coats off to clear out the debris. ‘Many injured passengers were removed and taken to neighboring houses, or drug stores, or to hos- pitala In this way eighteen or twenty people were got out of the wreck, some of them only Siguily injured, others with bones broken and bruised and cut. IN THE SIGNAL TOWER. Inthe signal tower, on the upper floor or ob- servatory, J. W. Baxter, a railroad signal man ‘was at Work. On the ground floor Jos, Healey, a roung man employed by the railroad company, Was dn cleaning lamps, Baxter, it appears, the impending danger in tinle. He gave ghout to Healey and leaped from the tower to the ground. His head was Tes in the fall, and he ‘was badly shaken up, but he seems to have escaped. any serious injury. Healey below, however, was buried in therulns ofthe house. When he was dis- interred it was found that the timbers had fallen 30 as to protect him from the tons of brick and mortar ebove him. He was badly frightened and bruised and blinded by the lime and piaster. ME HEARD BAXTER HALLOO. J. H. B. Smallwood, who stood in a yard next to the signal tower at the time of the accident, sald he heard Baxter, the signal man, halioo to Healey, who was below, and the next instant he heard the crash, and saw’ the building topple over, Small- Wood thought there Was ancth rman in the signal Yower who had not been, gotien ou at the time ‘Tue Stak reporter was wi ‘Small- wood eaid He heard the distress ‘wise, DUE ‘thought some one was on the srack. ‘HE SAW THE “SMASH.” Dr, D. N. Pratt, who lives on Myrtle street, near the railroad, was standing at the corner of Myrtle and Ist streets, almost opposite the signal tower, when the accident occurred, said to a Srax repor- ter: “I heard the train whistiing down brakes away upat the curve. When it passed me the train was golng a milea minute, It turned into the sharp curve—a forty-five degree curve—and shot off the track.
