For several months the Susquehanna ind Western line has been sternly op>osing the tramps who frequent its oute. Scores of men cauglit stealing ides in freight trains have been proseiuted. The hoboes made known their utention to retaliate, and several :imcs during the last month the threat ias been made that in some way the :ramps would be revenged. No stress vas laid upon any of these rumors un11 the express was wrecked.

Both engineer and fireman ive in North Patersou. There were :hree coaches in the train, which was speeding at forty miles an hour when the accident occurred. An old-fashioned, fishplate, such as las not been in use for ten years on the road, had been tnken from a scrap heap to wreck the train. The p!at4 ivas driven into a tie and one end was eft resting on a rail. The express lame along at high speed, and, hitting ;hc plate, was thrown off the tracks. The big engine bumped over the ties, jreaking some and tearing others from the rails. The cars followed the engine, and after a short distance had jeen covered the wheels pressed igainst the inside of a rail and ripped :his line of track completely out of Jlace. Pollison stuck to his engine until it came to a stop in the ditch alongside the tracks. He was badly shaken jp. He was almost covered with ivreckage and was taken out with difIculty. Mrs. Pollison was in one of the joaches, and. although cut with flying ;lass. her first thought was of her husjand. She found him in the ruins of lie engine attempting to extricate himself. She was rejoiced to know he Evas alive, having been fearful that he iiad died at his post. The fireman escaped injury. Hitchcock was terribly ?ut on the lejj. He was in the front ;ar, and was thrown with crushing 'orce against the back of a scai. How iie was cut is mysterious? although there was so much excitement imraeilately foilowiug the tcident that many of those on the ira'/i could not Jetail their experiences. The entire train was badly wrecked, the coaches Deing shattered, the sides going like paper, and all the windows being suat;ered the Instant the train hit the fish plate. For the last few days it has been aoticed that tramps had disappeared ?ntirely from this city, and it is believed that the hoboes had departed preliminary to an attempt to wreck a train. The tramps have been embittered by several of their kind being sent to prison. They hold that the company has a right to keep them off trains, but that it' is not in keeping ivith good management to send any of the great army of rovers to jail. SHOT HIM FROM HER SATCHEL.

GENERAL ASSAULT BY MPS At Given Signal Corps .pf Mikadp Make Desperate Charge. / GUNS FIRE 170 SHOTS A MINUTE - f Gallant Little Brown Men Are Mowed Down In the Kaulan Trenches?On* Fort I* Taken After Struggle With the Stubborn Defenders?Whole Arm j Fling Themselves on Xntrenchmenta Tokio, Japan.?A dispatch, by way of Sasebo, supplies details of a general attack upon Port Arthur. The scheme of it was somewhat different from that adopted in previous attacks. It was arranged that all the artillery corps should simultaneously bombard selected points,, preparatory to an assault at 1 o'clock in the afternoon. At early dawn the signal boom of a heavy gun brought a terrific hall from guns of all calibres upon the Tungkeekwau, Erlung aud Sungshn forts. This continued till 10 o'clock, when the guns of the points selected for bombardment were apparently silenced. But the garrison still defended its position gallantly, while the' Itseesfcai*, Pel van and Golden Hill forts DOUred H shrapnel upon the assaulting columns. A shell struck the Stmgshn redoubt' at 12.25 o'clock, exploding the magazine with a tremendous noise. A column of smoke spread out and covcred the sky. Five minutes later a shetf burst among the Russians massed in the trench of the Erlung fort, turning. It into a shambles. The fire at this time was at its heaviest, the shots numbering 170 a minute. Apparently the time for the assault, had come at 1.25 o'clock. The artillery fire slackened, and with rifle volleys and the rattle of machine guns, the infantry of all the lines rushed from their trenches up the slopes into the hot fire. : The whole army had been madel "kesshitai"?that is, men devoted tp death. It was, indeed, a forlorn hope, for the final charge was into trencher thirty feet deep, whence there was no return. After heavy losses the kessbltain managed to cross the ditch and raised the sun flag on the top of Tuogkeekwan Hill at 2 o'clock. Meanwhile other columns, after des-; perate fighting, pressed against the I outer trenches of the Erlung fort* occupied the outer bank of a great thirty-six foot trench, Sungshu, the heights of Fangkiatung and Housanyangtun and the foot of Lacti Mountain. The fierce resistance offered by the Russians at the !ast named places testified to the Importance they attached to them. The Russians retook Tungkeekwan, but the kesshitai recaptured at 11 o'clock, under the personal command of Geueral Ichlnche. ' CARRIES SON FIVE MILES. Father.
