Councilman Sandcc arrived homo from Now Y.ork'lnst evening- , accompanied by his fion Albert , who has been attending school at Stuttgnat. , , Mr. Sander win received with open arms by his family , who wcro greatly rejoiced at'hls Cacapo frdm the Johnstown disaster. Ills neighbors und friends as sembled to welcome him and hoar him relate the dot-ills of his experience , nnd n very pleasant evening was passed. Mr. Sander wns found to bo very coin- munlcaifvcr , nnd the details observed by htm were vividly Impressed upon his memory. The train on which ho was traveling , to gether with thrco other trains , was stopped at Concmnugh , a small town a few miles up the river'from Johnstown. Tlio trains stood abreast upon four tracks , nnd n few feet ahcad.otthom n train had been wrecked and thrown across tho'tracks , forming a barrier ugalnst whlcn n round house , containing eight engines , was carried by the water and plica up to'n height , of twenty feet This mass of i0bris'br0ko the force of the huco wave caused by tlio lire'aklng of the dam and divided , th'o waters , throwing the grcntar 'part ' off. in. , the direction of the river. A sufticioiit quantity llowod In the direction of the trains , however - over , to carry. Uio train nearest the river bodily from the track , sweep the last roach of the next train , , aiid-twlst the baggage car from the center of the third tr.iiu , leaving the onpinej mail car and coaches on the track. "T'ho'fcrarth train wne surrounded by water , but was loft.on.thQ track. When the water was seen approaching the trains the engineers turned on the steam nnd forced their engines ahead to keep them from being carried back by the water. The uroat body of water did not follow the channel of the river , but kept to the north along the valley , tumbling locomotives ever and over like a rubber ball. The passengers were very deliberate in getting out of the tram ? , ladles stopping to put on their overshoes , rubber gossamers , etc. , as though merely going out for n walk. One lady forgot her gossamer nnd went back after it. As Mr. Sander tersely said , "Sho stayed there. " Tlioso of the passengers who got out safely fled to tbo hills , where they sought shelter in farm houses , barns , sheds , etc. , remaining there until noon on Saturday About'two hours after , the hugo wave strucic tlio trains Mr. Sander returned to his car after his satciicl and found everything intact , nnd only tlio carpet in the car had been wet. In his opinion the wave was only about flvo or six feet high. About noon , on Saturday , the Pennsylva nia railroad company transported nil the sur viving passengers to Kbonsburg , in wagons , and from thence to Altoona by rail. At. Al- tooaa they wcro cared for at the company's cxDcnso at hotels , Mr. Sander thinks the fishing club , which owned the artlllclal lake , were not entirely to blame , ns thpy took every precaution to warn tbo inhabitants of the Impending dan ger , but the residents of the valley paid no attention to the warnings , saying ihov had heard the same story every year. The dnm wns built" by the state , but had been made higher by Iho club. Before the dam broiro the Concmnugh river was seven feet hiihor than wns-ovcr known boforo. The track , whcro the trains stood , was only about three feet above the river. AMUSKMENTfl.

CHICAGO , July 10. Luke Dillon is rospon aiblc for the stntcmont that n prominent Irishmen will bo arrested In Now York In connection with the Crontn murdor. Dillon refused U > dlvulgo the Individual's name , howovcr , but stated that ho has some strong circumstantial evidence In his pos session nnd Is confident that -tho murderers of Dr. Croiiiu will bo iu custody before two weeks have passed. Nothing of nn interesting character wns developed at to-day's session of the Cronin jury of Inquest. During the morning Michael Whalcn , the suspended detective , who was with Detective Coughlln when they mot Smith , the man suspected of driving Cronin to his death , but did not arrest him , and Thomas O'Connor , a tinsmith , were the only witnesses. Both are members of the Clnu-tm-Gaol , but n rigid cross examination failed to * connect them with the doctor's taking off. During the noon recess the Jury holU n con sultation with the coroner In his ofllce in which it was decided that thbso sum moned to testify whoso evidence would bo bnt a corro Deration of what bad been already offered should bo excused , the Jury being In their minds satisfied of the truth of the principal allegation , thnt Cronin came to his death as the result of n conspiracy and that sufficient animus and motive existed to form a conspiracv. Should nny witnesses been on the list the testimony of whom would contradict anything thus far presented it wns desired that such witnesses bo of course heard ns well us tboso who had anything now. This decision will doubtless shorten the Inquest by at least ouo day. At the afternoon session James Canall and A. J.
