GENE FIELD, in the Chicago y

GENE FIELD, in the Chicago Ne,cs
speaks thusly of Quincy:
We are curious to see what the press
of the state will have to say about the
selection of Quincy as the site of the Sol
diers' and Sailors home.
We have always been very free in ouI
expression of opinion concerning Quincy
we have maintained that it was u Nilsson
ri town--as distinctively Missourian and
as foreign to Illinois, as if it were located
on the west bank of the Mississippi.
Quincy is one of the oldest towns in
the Mississippi valley; it is but few
years younger than than Kaskaskia. and
the only Difference we can see between
the two towns is that Kaskaskia died
first. = 49,.
= Quincy is without public spirit, without
enterprise and without vigor; she is the
lean and slippered pan,aloon of Illinois
cities.
Her only notable act of late years was
the partisan effort she made some months
ago to inveigle strangersinto the midst of
her by advertising a democratic tishfry
we are told that the fish used on this oc-
caion were bulheads caught in the horse
ponds around Palmyra, Mo.
The soldiers home will be great pick
ing for Quincy, for heretofore Quincy has
had nothing to brag about except her
Zine old trees"
just think of an Illinois town Dragging
of her old trecsl What a commentary
upon the Wanted progressive spirit of
this mighty state! What bitter mockery
of that vigor which has placed Illinois
in the van of western civilization!

BROOKLYN, N Y, Dec THE oft-re
peated giving ont Of the cable grip on the
bridge led Saturday morning to an appall.
ing accident While no lives were lost, the
injuries Of u number were serious as to
cause grave doubts of their survival AT
S35 O'Clock a train of two cars rolled out of
the Brooklyn depot, and climbed almost to
the tower, when the grip gave out and the
train ran backward toward the station. The
trains were running on one minute and a half
Roadway, and another train Of three cars
had already started up the incline, The
slippery track gave no chance for stopping
and the crash came with terrific force. The
cars We're jammed to the doors with people.
Those standing near the forward door saw
tho rolling train and the red flag of warn
ing. All united in cry of horror
that did harm to all in the car
for all the occupants rose at once to their
feet, to be piled Unfortunately by the
collision. At once the confusion became
appalling. The women shrieked, and the
Men added to the panic in a frantic Ell
deavor to escape from the wreck Win
dows not broken by the crash were smashed
by the terrified passengers, and out through
these the weinen were taken There was no
escape by the doors The cars were tee-
scoped in one solid mass. r.
The following persons received injuries:
Samuel ~ meyers, conductor, bfooRlyn, ID
years old; confusion in the abdomen; his
injuries are very serious Francis Baker,
editor fracture of the side. John Doyle,
laborer, injured in the back. Victor
Schaumberg, Is years old, clerk, compound
fracture Of the left leg Charles X. Bris-
tow, cuts about legs and body. He had to
DO chopped out of the ruins
Besides these there were half dozen per
sons more or less hurt, but who were able
to go to their homes, and their names could
rot be obtained.
Superintendent Martin, of the Brooklyn
bridge, when asked by United Press re
porter for an explanation as to how the ac
cident occurred, SAID that nobody could tell
why the cable slipped. The rain may have
had something to do with it, or defective
grip. None of the bridge employees,
lie said, were. to blame. The dam
age to rolling stock will reach 5000.
Bridge Trustee Hendricks said accidents
We're likely to happen at any time because
of the short interval between trains which
are being run on one and a half minutes
hea,tway and the poor terminal facilities on
the New York end. The only way by
which future accidents can be avoided, he
thought, would be to extend the New York
end and give more room for the switching
of trains.

GREAT MYSTERY SOMEWHERE.


Unsatisfactory Evidence Given in the
WIlson-SIoeD Case.
Boston, Mass, Dec THE case of viii
son VS.. Moen tof barb-wire fame), came to a
close, Saturday, so far as the evidence and
argument is concerned. Wilson sues Moen
for about $4,000, which the former says
the latter offered to give him to compromise
certain actions brought against Wilson
by three women for seduction and
breach-of-promise. Why Moen should
have offered to pay this money
is the mystery, and the trial las failed ell
tirely to bring out the reason Moen swore
that he did not promise to pay Wilson the
sum sued for, but admitted that he had paid
the latter 10000 because he wanted to
avoid having his name brought into court
in connection with Wilson's matrimonial
difficulties. 1t was charged at the trial that
Wilson had seduced one girl by making her
believe that ceremony was not necessary
to make her his wife, engaged to marry the
same girls sister, and finally broke the en-
gagement and married another woman.
When Wilson was put on the stand his
evidence was most unsatisfactory. He
swore that while stranger to Moen that
gentleman had entrusted him with large
sums of money, and said he did not know
why; charged that his signature had been
forged to letters produced in court,
that he had claim upon Moen either
for the first money or the sloo,-
900 Moen offered him to settle the So
duction and breach of promise eases with
Nor would he give no information on those
subjects The counsel made their argu-
ments and the judge dismissed the jury until
Monday.
