A Broken Kail Hurls the Ex press into the Ditch , An Old Lady Burned to Death and Several Severely Injured. Details of the Disaster High way Happenings at Home. i The rumor of a irfcrioua wreck on the Hock Island road last night , which occurred to the train that left Omaha Thursday morning , was talked of con siderably on the strnets yesterday , but nothing definite was known by the general public , and the officials , if posted , wore reticent on the sub ject. The details will bo found in the following : SpecUl Dispatch to Tbo Boo. CHICAGO , January 21. i p. m. The passenger ttaln on the Ilock Is land road encountered a broken rail at midnight , at Tiskclwa , III. The engine , baggige car and smoking car passed safely over but three coaches and the sleeper were thrown from the track. The first coach that wont off took fire and was burned. Onowo man was burned to death. About a dozen persons were injured. The passenger coach which was burned , went over a steep embank ment. The others which left the rails , did not go down and no ono wa > ; severely injured. The most sofious casualitlen were : Killed Mrs. Kirby , of Nevada , 0. Injured Matt Phelps , Grlnnell , la , shoulder dis tracted ; Mrs. Holdcn , Patterson ; Mrs. Dow , Wintersett , slightly hurtj J W. Hufihett , Chicago , nlightly In jured , and "several " tttners. The accident delayed all trains about Gvo hours. The officials of the road say it was unavoidable , and blame attaches to anyone. The conductor , Charles Wheeler , says that ho Was In the smoking car and first realized what had happened when he felt the car bouncing on the tics. It.gained the rails atgainj how ever , bul on looking back ho saw the remainder cf the train lying in the ditch , with the exception of the tvro rear sleepers. The fonr that had jumped the track lay in con fusion several ioct from the roadbed , and the first car was In flames. lib rang the signal to slow up and as aoon as ho deemed II cafe to do so jumped off and ran to the assistance of those in the wrecked cars. A terrible scene mot his gaze. The interior of the first passenger car was a sheet of flsmo. Men and women were fctruggliug frantically to fret out ana were tramp ling each other in their frenzy to ca- capo lha hrc. Windows were broken in as quicklyas possible and people re moved from the car and taken to a place of safety. In all there were about twenty passengers in this car. In the revolution which the car made down the embankment the stoves wore hurledfromtheir places and thobarning wood scattered In every direction , Mrs. Kirby , % lady of 50 years , who was seated in the roar end of the car , fell a victim to the flames. Her cloth ing was burned frcra her body , and it was with great difficulty that she could be handled , as the flash was J1 ready to drop from her bones , She was finally removed to the * lakilwa Hotel , but her fertrna wore so serious that she died this morning. She was accompanied by her daughter , a lady of 30 years , and they were on their way to Nevada. The conductor was severely burned about the hands and by inhaling the flames in rescuing tnp passengers. Thomas Gorman and wife , of Dallas , Iowa , wore in the burning car. Their account corresponds with that told by the conductor. William O. Thompson was severely Injured about the head. The wounded were brought to this city at 11 a. m. The wrecked train left Omaha-at 7:30 yesterday morning. RAILROAD NOTES Boyd is loading fifteen cars of meat to-day for the south , five of lard and five of moat for Chicago. Buyd ia booming.

Lincoln IB just now Buffering from the presence and activity of a gang of professional ' pick-pockoU irho ply their calling at the opera house , hotels , depots and elsewhere. Hon. William A. Paxton , of this city , was among the iufferers Thursday. Hi5 pocket-book containing about § 1200 in notes and small sum of money , was stolen from his pocket in the Opera House , where the balloting for United States Senator was going on In addition hii railroad passes were stolen , being in the B mo receptacle. No trace ot the thief could bo found. From a gentlemen who came up on the noon train to-day wo learn that eight robberies were committed yes terday in the Opera House alone , one of them being that of a valuable diamond oar ring , which was actually slipped out of the lady's aat aa she 7as leaving the house. Postmaster Keckloy , of the house of representatives wai relieved of his pocketbook while chtering the Opera House. It was taken from his inside coot pocket. Fortunately It contained nothing but pipers , having deposited his cash on h ; nd in the First National bank a few hours before. The wlfp of s Nebraska senator , was relieved of her pockoibook , con taining abyut 510 in money and a railroad ticket to Columbus , at the B. & M. depot yeaterdayi VaritSua other robberies arc "report od and the worst part of it is that they can't catch any of the rascals , which would indicate that they are experts who hare probably visited the capital fem some eastern city in anticipation of reaping ka rich harvest. As they nust obtain tickets from some of ihi members or officer * of the leplslatun ti order to got , it is a llttlo singular that the gama can't bo stopped by rig id rules as to the issue of theao tickets by members to strangers.

Cur ( German friends are vigorously poshing the preparations for the great musical event which is to occur in this city next summer , OHO of fhe retiuia- ites to TWch. is a commodious and Duitablo hall for the use of the Sain- gerbund. We understand that Mr. ' Brandt offered to sell them his hall 1 for 312.500 , but deeming this too high & figure his proposition was not ac cepted. Tlis three societies , the TurnVerein - Verein , Concordia and Mioiinerchor , have about concluded to oreot a hall for their joint use and for the use of the convention next sumiror. To this end the societies have appointed a committee of throe each to Confer in regard to the nlattfir , and this com mittee will meet on Monday evening next. The committees are ai follows : Turn-Verein Fruehauf , BUrmesler , Andrea ; Ooncordia SlratmanPandt , , Haarmiu ; Mtcunerchor Boeckhoffj Mack , Wirth. The loca'ion of the now building has been chcaon , but is not yet to bo made public. This is a most important project and wo hope it will succeed. A fine . hall owned by the German societies would bo an advantage to the city in , many ways , and with Boyd'a new Opera House , which will be com- ploted in August , we would have ample facilities for the finest musical and dramatic entertainments in the country. This is not only the latest but one of the mo < t desirable of the many contemplated improvements for the year 1881. Straight Old-Fashioncd Syrup. jl9-w&f FLEMING & Co. , Grocors.

Fierce Conflagration During the Storm of Wind and Snow Last Night. About 8 o'clock last evening a bright light was discovered in the di rection of California and Thirteenth Streets , which rapidly grew , until a broad glare lit up the sky and , magnl tied by the reflection on the snow which was falling , formed a most alarming sight. Those who first saw H * -an to the store of Mr. T. 0. Brnn * ncr , corner of Capitol avenue and Sixteenth street , and gave the alarm of fire from box 15 , wlich was In stantly responded to , but owing to the fire being in nn entirely differed neighborhood from the box pulled , the drivers wore confused , and were some little time in striking the route. It looked as if a whole block was buruitig , vle dd frorii tile centre o ! town , but after facing the gale which loaded with snow , was driving square ly from the north , the fire was reach ed and found to bo confined to two small dwelling houses on tbo south eld's ' of California between Tweltth and Thirteenth streets , which wore owned by Mr. John Johnson , the rea estate dealer , No. 1324 Farnam street and occupied by a couple of Swod < families. The buildings were o frame , one-story , and evidently old and they burned like paper. From the time the flames burst forth to tha occnpled by out rtipdrtef In rdnnitig five blocks , one of the houses was to tally destroyed , and the other devoured all except the frame and a portion of the roof. The occupants had barely time to save a few of their goods and escape with their lives The wind swept the flitnea across an open space In the centre of the square so as to threaten a disastrous conflagration , but UiitS was sooh cheeked when the firemen got at it. A singular phenom enon was witnessed In the appearance of a reflection cast into the air from the fire. It was broad Ht the base end oxtonde d to the fcenith whore it culminated in a point , like an elongat ed pyramid of fire. It was very much like a brilliant display of the northern lights. The fire was soon extinguished and by 0 o'clock the great crowd that had assembled at the spot had dispersed and the neighborhood was once more quiet and deserted. Inquiry as to the origin of the fire elicited nothing further than that two little children - had been left alone in the house where the flames started , and that they es caped safely and ttero taken care of. The namei and whereabouts of the people thus cruelly turned out in the storm , it was impossible in the con fusion to obtain. A FIEEMEN'S FETE , A Grand Tournament to Take Place June Next.

ReCruits for Gramaoher's Guards. The city is again becoming 'danger ously infested with foot-pads , the most dangerous class of criminals thai exists , and robberies are becoming of nightly occurrence. About a quarter to lix o'clock Thursday a gentleman from LaPl tte was hastening down 10th street to take the tJ. P. train west , ho was sud denly felled to the grBund | _ hear the sewer crossing and recovered to find that the little change 10 had carried in his pocket , about $1.50 $ , had been taken from him and that the only return he had received was a severe cut over the right eye. The highwaymen had fled and the gontlenian did not feel like pursuing them for the sake of so small a sum. Our informant , Mr. Wm. F. Stoetzel , did not learn the gentleman's1 name. MORE DZtlLTRV , In the police court this morning two of the Davis boys were up on the charge of grand larceny and were commiltsd to the county jftll to await further examination. This case was skilfully worked up by Officer James Donahoe , the youngest man on the force , who exhibits considerable abili ty iu hifi profession. Me detected the two men trying to dispose of a ladies gold watch , two gold chains and some other articles ; said to have been forcibly taken from a woman. The boys resisted the arrest and Andy Borden and Charles Helwig wore call ed on befoio the two could be snbdn od and marched o f to jail. In the melee the watch was in some myster ious manner disposed of , but notwith standing ttils it ia faltered that there is a clear case against the prisoners. TRAMP ! TRAMP 1 TBAMf ! A fine looking array of tramps wfts flteerad into court by the jailor , and eleven frovtby tiaads ° d faces * and clothes that were badly soiled to match , confronted the judge , They were not gathered in from box cars br caves ; but came voluntarily to the jail last night for lodging. They don't have to be hunted these days. They were all anxious to be sent to jail for any terra that the judge in his kindness might grant them. Six of thorn dre > r prizes find went to the rock pile for five days each. Five of them wnro bounced , of this number four were from Council Bluffs where they had worn out their welcome and then wfere rircd otlt of town. Those who wore sent up had acquired a reel- denceherohaylugregisteredat the hotel Westordahl for three successive nights p.ncl rocognteing their rights they were put to work to earn their Board and iG-ig ! " . As soon as the river bracks up the authorities will give iu 7hol ° crowd the g. b. and start them east ward. At present it would be a USB- leys job as they would walk right back over the icd When the rlrer is open they have td run their dhauces and steal their way back in a box car. rJDliEEN'a ouiLT. Officer J. O'Donohce ' , yesterday about 11 o'clock , arrested Pat Gn'heen on the chare of highway robbery. At Tint the prisoner stoutly main tained his innoootice , b'rit on the way to the lock up he was induced to think bettor of it , and con fessed to the officer that , ho did the job and told him where to find the property. It appears that on Tuesday night last Ooheen and Dennis Eagan , the latter of the U. P. shops , were coming along Tenth street to gether and when on the sidewalk near the B. & M. headquarters on the north , Gnheen asked Eigan what time it was. The latter not suspecting any foul play drew out his watch , a very fine > heavy silver case and ono of the best American movements , when , suddenly Guheen gave him a blow with ono hand and with the other seized the watch , and ran away. Ho throw the watch down or dropped it soon after and it lay on the side walk in plain sight from that time un til noon to-day , when Don ahoe found It from direction ! given him by the prisoner. The gold chain attached was gone , howeverand is said to have been sold or traded off. The watch and chain were worth $90 The case seems to bo a clear one and if no now developments are made Pat h likely to go over the road. LESSER OFFENSES.

An aged invalid died to-day at St Joseph's Hospital. A post-mortem examination will be held this after noon. Hard on Hogs Mr. D. W. Hoover , writing from Bsttlo Creek , Neb , , to his brother , K. P. Hoover , of our neighboring city , speaks as follows of the effects of the recent cold snap there : "On the morning of the 10th int. , the mercury got down to 42 ° balow zero. We have over 200 hogs and half of them froze their tails so that they are cracking off and the hogs going around with bleadinr stumps instead of tails. Ono third of them froze thnir ears so that they are falling off also , some of them to within a half inch bf the head and some of them were frozen to death. There is no doubt more will die nnlota the weather moderates very aoon. I never before witnessed a winter like the present , and old set- tiers say it getn away with them all for severity.
