The fifth division of Futher Matthow's exouraion, returning from Hazelton, was wrecked and the cars piled in a shapelsss mass, one be.ng stood on its end.

All the oars were crowded, and the fatalities will run into awful figures. All physicians from White Haven and near by points are at the wreck, as also the Lehigh Valley officials from this city. The number killed is variously estimated at from twenty-five to eighty persons. The only information is from passengers on the Central railroad trains, who report a horrible condition of affairs, tho groans of the wounded being heard across the river, where the tracks of the Central run.

Tho October crop returns Bhow that the condition of the present corn crop has been equalled only three times in ten year3, and is exceeded materially only by that of 1879, when the condition was 08, and the subsequent ascertained yield 28 bushels. The prosent average of condition is 92 against 04.2 in September, There has beon no decline in the northwest, and the status of the great corn surplus remains as on September 1. The indications favor result, ranging a little from twenty-six bushels per acre, making a full average. The condition of buckwheat has declined heavily from J3.7 last month, to 79.1, mainly from frost. The average condition of the potato crop is about 87, a decline of less than 4 Tobacco has fully maintained the condition of last month, averaging for all kinds 8.3.

Tho returns relative to wheat are tho-e of the yield per acre by counties. As consolidated, the general average for winter wheat is 12 bushels, and for spring wheat Blightly over 10 bushels. The former has yielded better than the early expectation, the latter mnch worse. This is, of course, measured in bushels. The quality is muoh below the In one case they found John Lynch, of Wilkeshnrre, hanging from the roof by ono leg.

His cries brought friends, who, to relieve his snfrerinjr. stood upon the wreckage and hold his weight up their backs, until he was relensed from his terrible position.

She heroic ally bore up.

Her gold watch she handed settlement was made by a move of est side citizens this morning. They first called on Mayor Roche nud presented the case to him. He told them that he was convinced that if the strikers would withdraw thoir demand for tho discharge of tho new men a compromise could bo arranged. Then the committee visi'ed tho strikers aud succeeded in in-dusing them to make the conoo-sion spoken of. They reported this fact to the mayor, who called a conference of the executive committee in his office at 3 o'clock this afternoon.

After further consultation, it was agreed that tho strikers would declare the strike off, provided Mr. Yerkes consented to give the North side men the snmo privileges ne tho West side men enjoyed before tho strike, tho company to rotaiu the new men hired during the strike. About thia timo Mr. Yerkes arrived and was admitted to tho couferonco. Tho first difficulty in tho way was that thero would not be places for the old men.

About twenty-flvo men have been held in reaerve all night at tho Western avenue barna ready to run out cars on ahort notice. Tho barn foroinan says he expoctcd to receive orders to got out a dozen cars eometime thia morning, that ho would be ready on ten minutes notioo. Tou policeman havo been atationed in tho barn all night. An extra quad has also beon waiting at the West Madison street elation, a rumor having been apread that a mob of strikers might attack the Lari.e to get at the men. It is understood that an attempt will be made to run cara on one or two other West aide Hues to-day.

The naual number of cara were atarted on tho North side this morninjj, mooting no onpo-sNion. The alleged dynamite lmd on the Uorlh aide track provea to have been of absolutely no consequence. Tho torpedoos were of the cap variety and aiiogether harmless. 10:30 a. m.

Orders have been issued for 'the concentration of ICO policemen at Des-tfilainea street station. Tho supposition is that an attempt is to bo mado to Kit out a larger number of West eide cars than have been run at any previous timo tnnco the titnke was inaugurated. A few strikers gathered around tho barns thi morning and declared that the cars would not ho nl-lowed to run. A number of the North aide oars mado their trips this ntorninij without serious interference. The track obstructions wero, few and and pooplo appearod to have grown weary of shouting "rats," or at the new men.

It is announced that about forty cars will be run during the day. DANOEUOUB EXPLOSIVES. Captain Shaack, of the North aide police, discovered this morning that the dynamite which Jules Kaleaherger was caught placing on the street car tracks, on Sedgwick atroet. yesterday afternoon, is the most violent explosive eer found by the police in this city. (Japtan Shaack and Edward Furthman, attorney for the street car company, both of whom are experts on explosive, carefully examined the etna at the Enst Chicago avosue station thia morning.

Severat pieces were found on tho track. They are cone shaped about tho si3 and shape of half an rgj. Captain Hhaaclc says the explosion of ono of these conea would shatter a car wheel into smithereens, and that three of thum would blow a street cav fo high that a lira shovel would bold the largest fragment. If three of thptn were placed in a gna pipe they would nmko a bomb precisely like those made by Ixjuis Lingg, the anarchist. A dozen of three cones wero found in Kalesberger's pockets.

The committee conferring with Mr. Yerkes had full nuthority to ao-cept then nnd there the terms offered. They decided not to do so, bat to refer the whole mntter to a general meeting of the strikers to be assembled immediately. The committee then nt the mayor's office were Release of a Noted rrlnoner.
