"A special from Clinton, Iowa, says
that the night express westward on the
Rock Island division of the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul Railroad, was
thrown into the Illinois River at Mere.
dosia, at 5 o'clock Thursday morning, by
the giving way of the trestle work. Two
cars floated off down the stream, one
passenger coach lodged against an island
about four rods away, and the baggage
car struck in the middle of the strea, i
about the same distance away. Only the
roofs of the two cars are now in sight.
The engineer and fireman and six pas
sengers were drowned, and number of
others were injured. The river is per-
feet torrent where tho trestle went out.
It is ssid that freight train passed over
the bridge an hour or 80 before the pas
senger train. Twenty boats are at work
in the pouring rain searching for bodies
and picking up luggage. All tho bodies
are believed, however, to be washed out.
The shore at the scene of tho accident,
and for eight miles below, is lined with
people looking for fragments of the
wreck.

A Scandal that Rivals the Famons

WASHINGTON, April 81.
The sensation of the day is the sum-
mary removal of the second assistant
postmaster-general by order of the Presi-
dent. Various ruuors are aloat affect.
ing Brady's inisr .ity. 1t is even
asserted that such discoveries have been
made with reference to the Star route
contracts that they will lead to his prompt
indictment. This question of Star routes
received an overhauling at the hands of
Congress when deficiency bill for g.
100000 was put in.
1t appears that Postmaster. General
James took up the investigation which
the House committee stopped, and has
succeeded in obtaining evidence that will
establish beyond question the fraudulent
and corrupt character of the Star route
management during the past four years,
and which will at the same time confirm
the suspicion that certain prominent
officers had not only guilty knowledge of
the methods practiced, but were benefi-
Charles of the corruption fund freely used
to further them.
It has been said that Of the $5 ,O0O. 600
regularly appropriated for 1926 Star
routee for tho last fiscal year nearly
$4,000, 900 was awarded for service on 9S
outesscontrolled by favored contractors,
leaving less than $3,o00,000 for the re-
manning 9,1S2 routes. 1t Is believed
that at least $4,000, 900 was distributed
among the Star routo group during the
last fiscal year, the Government, OF
course, receiving no service whatever
from the amount abstracted.

- According to recent st. Petersburg
correspondence the police of that city have
received present of 500 roubles and o
printed testimonial of thanks from the
Nihilist committee rs an ironical com.
piiment for their ineiiicicncy. There is
very likely no truth in this report, for
letters from tho Russian Capital are of
necessity largely made mp of rnmors, but
there is substantial agreement among the
correspondents of English newspapers
that the young Car is fully conscious of
the concealed dangers which menace
him. The Echo Gays that Amitschkov
lies more favorably than the Winter
Palace. AL the houses and gardens round
have been bought up; all cellars cleared
out, to see that nothing lies concealed
inthem; The payements have been torn
up, and all the water.pipes and conduits
strictly examined. The most stringen.
examination is made OF each of the few
persons who are to inhabit the great
lonely building as the Cars servants.
The Berlin (April 2l) correspondent OF
the London Standard says: nThe Gar

Meanwhile the Amitschoy Palace, his

The estimates for work on the pro.
jected railroad .iom Spartanhurg to
Greenwood have been made out, and tho
road completed, including the laying of
the track, will cost about 81, 200 per mile.
The distance from Spartanburg to Wood
ruff is 10 miles, from Woodruff to Lau.
rens 20 miles, and from Laurens to
Greenwood z7i miles total distance 66S
miles. The engineers have secured a
very cheap route. There is only one
cut, which is over 25 feet deep, and that
may be reduced to IL feet. It is proba.
BILE that there will be very little rock
work, the deepest cut being about six
feet deep. If all the heavy work could
be massed 1t would not amount TO more
than nine miles.

Although for more than week letter
writers from Washington have filled the

rangements would be made by the Dem

DEATH OF HON. NJ. T.. o'CONNOR.

The Hon. NJ. p. O'Connor, Represen-
tative in Congress from the Second Con-
gressional District, died in Charleston on
Monday last. Mr.. O'Connor was born
in Beaufort, S. c., in 1881, was gradu-
atcd at st. Johns College, N. Y, in
lS49, and settled in Charleston in 1850
when he commenced the study Of the law.
In 1858 he was elected member of tho
Legislature, and from that time until
his death, with the exception of few
years, just after the war, accepted high
and important political Offices. The
State and especially his Congressional
District, will miss his prudent counsel
and that universal popularity which
secured him n seat in Congress. The
death of such man as Mr. O'Conncr is
at all times 4 public loss, but ut such
times as the present it isa public cnlnmi-
ty.

TIE EXTENSION OF THE VIRGINIA
MIDLAND RAILROAD.

The railroad syndicates formed in the
Southern States for the Inst few years
have for their object the procurement of
the Southern trade for the City of New
York, and the combinations formed tend
to that result, mt the lo1s Of trade by II II
the commercial cities soath of that point,
and from which Baltimore especially
suffers. The Baltimore and Ohio Rnil.
road, acting in union with the City of
Baltimore and the Virginia Midland
Railroad, propose to afford tc the South
equal facilities for trade with Baltimore
to those of New York, by all extension Of
the Virginia Midland Railroad from
Dsnville, by the way Of Statesville
or Mooresvlllc through North Carolina
into South Carolina. Tho objective
Southern point seems undetermined. 1t
is conceded that Spartanburg will be one
ofthe points reached, but whether 1t will
from there take the direction OF Augusta
or Atlanta ia uncertain, and remains
matter for future consideration. Ander-
son, Greenvillc and Spartanburg are
greatly excited on the subject, and each
OF them have appointed delegations to
meeting of the Directors in North Caro-
linr, and to proceed to Baltimore to
present to the President Of tho Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad and the committee of
the citizens of Baltimore the advantages
of route through their respective towns.
The Town Council and Board Of Trade
of Anderson appointed Gen. w. w.
Humphreys, Capt. P. X. McCully Maj.
Il. F. Whitner, Hon. B. +. Crayton
and Maj. E. B. Murray their delegates,
who left on last Monday for North Caro-.
lima and Baltimore. Other delegations
had visited Baltimore, aud we have not
yet received any intelligence from the
visit of our delegation. But such are
the palpable advantages to he derived
from making Atlanta the Southern ter
minus, there can be little doubt that it
will be adopted; and if 30, there il not
only c prospect but almost certainty
that it will come by Anderson. The To-
cation of the Air Line Road is such that
1t leaves large section of county with
out the necessary Northern end Southern
outlets, and another company will hardly
be blind to the benefits to be derived
from securing this trade. road prop
erly located from Statesvile or Mooree.
vile to Atlanta will be from rs to 100
miles shorter than any other road, and
possessed of so many advantages over ali
roads, that it would secure the great
Northern aud Southern trade, rs we'll an
the trade along the line, with that de-
rived from the many feeders extending
from the mountains TO the sen. shore, and
at the same time precludes the building
of another road parallel through the
States Of North and South Carolina and
Georgia. Our people are deeply inter
es.ed in this matter, and when the time
comes will do their whole duty.

MORNING SESSION

BIsMARcK's VIEw.-The Prussian Ma
tionGl Gazette states that few days ago
Prince Bismarck received Jewish gentle
man, owner of large manufacturing estab-
llshment, as guest at his country seat.
In reply to an inquiry whether he approved
of the anti-Jewish agitation, the Prince
readily answered Certainly not moth
ing can be more unjust. l am most de-
cidedly opposed to this agitation against
the Jews, whether from the point of view
of religion or race. With equal right they
could one day fall upon Germans OF Polish
or French extraction and say they were no
Germans. That the Jews show predilee-
ton for trade is matter of taste; their
previous exclusion from all other profess
sions may, perhaps, well justify it. But it
is certainly not warrantable to talk about
their superior wealth in that inhammatory
way, which I find wholly contemplate, as
being calculated to excite the envy and
hatred CT the multitude. l will never agree
to the constitutional rights of the Jews
being restricted in any way. The intel
Iectual organization OF the jews in general
inclines them to criticism, and the greater
number of them, therefore, are on the side
of the Opposition but make no distinc-
ton between Christian and Jewish oppo-
nents of my economic policy, which l con.
scientiously hold to be profitable for the
nation"
