In connection with this exhibition the C.

Thirteen Persons Killed.

Bethlehem launch oi the .Philadelphia iv. Reading railway this morning at Hatfield, Pa., twenty-seven miles north of this city. The wrecked train consisted of ten day coaches and was the first section ol a large excursion train made up of people from Bethlehem, Allentovvn and surrounding towns to Atlantic City. This train carried only those persons who lived in Bethlehem and Allentown aud left the luncheon depot in 'Belhie* hem at 0:U3a. in., exactly thirty-live minutes behind Ihe milk train. The littler train coiisi.-l.ed of two conches, and had slopped atevery station on tin- road from Bethlehem en route tu Philadelphia. At li-Ao the, milk train, drew up at the .milk platform at Miilfield, and in two minuted the special excursion train, running at the Kile, of thirty-live miles .in hour, crashed into theredr end of the milk train. The locomotive plowed through the. two passenger coaches and crushed Ihem as if they were egg-shells. The milk car immediately in front was also badly wrecked. Four persons, Godfrey Kaolin, his (laughter Mamie, Harold Landis and \Yilliam Blackburn, on the passenger ear of the milk train, were almost instantly killed. Fortunately there were very few persons on this train, . Nine miles North of Star.derlon, July 2M, 1CIJ0. Dear Sir,-We left Standerlon on Juno' SOU*, Geneial Clery and Lord Dundonald in command.

The stay at home, however, bore a heavier burden of the distresses of the campaign in Cuba than the 'one who saw the battles.
