COLLISION.
A SPECIAL TRAIN OF RAILWAY
OFFICERS SMASHED.
Two Persons Killed-EX-GO {
Brown Among the Sc
Verely Injured.

ST. LOUIS, April 27.-Quite a serious acct
dent occurred on the lion Mountain road
seventeen miles below this city, between and
2 O'Clock tn S afternoon, by which two persons
were killed and several others injured. A
special train consisting of baggage car, pullman
sleeper and two directors cars, bearing party
of Texas & Pacific and Missouri Pacific oficials
on a trip of inspection over the former road,
Both trains were running pretty fast and came
together on sharp curve under high cliff on
the rIver bank. The crash was terrific and
completely wrecked-both trains. William
Stephenson, engineer of the special, received
a cOncus sion OF the spine, and was injured in
ternally. His fireman, Louis Christ had both
| legs torn off, his chest crushed in, and was
killed. Jno. McGOvern, engineer of the Mon;
tosano train, was thrown into the river and
was not hurt. His fireman received only
| slight injuries. Philip Toland, a nephew OF
zen. Wistar, of the Texas and Pacific road
and connected with the locomotive depart
ment of the Pennsylvania railway, was ridinf
on the engine OF the special and was frlghtful-
ly man2led one leg being torn off, a-d hi:
chest crushed in, killing him instantly.
The other members of the party were in the
rear car, and were somewhat shaken but thu
most serious injuries were those of ex-Gov
Brown, general solicitor OF the Missouri Pa
cifc, who had one shoulder diSlOcated, ant
Gen. WiStar who was slightly hurt a out tn
head. Medical aid was summoned as Speedil
as possible and all brought to the city
railroad hospital and Gov. Brown and Gen
WiStar are at the Southern Hotel.
The body of Mr.. Toland was placed i
charge of an undertaken and tlat OF Chris
the fireman. wa left at Carondolet.
The special train had right of way, but oW
ing to a misunderstanding of the train di:
patcher, Mr.. Burns, the 40 tsano WAS nc
ordered to wait unit, the special had passed

ton of Asia, and to-day its temples
uplift themselves beside those OF
Brahminism and other old faiths,
spreading its gentle doctrines in every
part of Asia. Its gospels have eX-
banded into great Libraries, and the
commentaries upon them make noun

appalling even to Magliabec-
chi. Its poDtificate is divided,
and it is said to embrace more sects
even than Christianity. 1t pervades
countries where but generation ago
it was a bare shadow, and is said to

there is but little difference between

having no shipping at all for the pur-
pose of foreign trade. The policy of
the Republican party, in this regard,
has been dog in the manger policy,
and we want no more of it. L he
declarationof war would convert every
British and Russian ship on the ocean
into a belligerent, and these would,
as said, lead to their conversion into
American ship, We're it not for thes
miserable prohibitory navigation
laws. But our Federal Administration
would be fully up to the necessities
of the times, al measures would at
once be taken to meet emergencies.
Both England and Russia are
parties 10 the treaty of Paris
which Prohibits privateering in time
of war, but wheih her either would OBJ
serve j., Is :, question the future must
decid- There are many ways FOL
belligecen,S avoid agreements en-
tered into in times OF peace, aud Eng
land, esp c.ally. has never been over
nice i'll doing it. Goods of these two
nation, covered by the American
flag, would be safe from reprisal
while the carrying of them would b.
great commercial advantage to gu
merchants u shippers. Those absur'
navigation laws must. in any event, b
repealed. Should there be no wa
even then one of the first duties Q
Congress, when it meets next Decem
Der, should be to repeal these law;
Let Americans be permitted to bu
2 ships where they may be secured o
} the best terms.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1885-04-30
OUR ABSURD NAVIGATION LAWS

Should the differences between Erg-
land and Russia result in war, in
which there would necessarily be
quite general European compica-
ton, the carrying trade of the high
seas would be conducted almost alto
gether in American bottoms. The
present administration has already
given assurances that our shipping is
to be encouraged and amply protected,
and this fact, though the United
States now has no merchant marine,
would produce such confidence, that
American money which is abundant,
would be freely used, under new
navigation laws, in the pur-
chase of ships. The English
merchant ships would be for
sale on such terms that would induce
purchase; and so would be Russian
ships, land probably those Of other pow
ers, directly or indirectly involved.
The merchant marine of the United
States would grow to be the most
powerful on the globe, but to protect
this there must be no navigation laws,
and more powerful navy. The mar
row minded policy of the Republican
party for the last twenty-five years
has removed the United States from
the list of powers enjoying commerce
ial marines. In the event of war, the
convocation of Congress would be-
come a necessity. Our navigation
laws are a disgrace to any civil
lied and enlightened country.
An American may go to England and
buy anything he may desire and bring
it to this country uhder the stars and
stripes except ship. The moment he
would raise the flag of the United
States above the deck of an English
built ship he would be in contempt of
the laws of his country-these misere.
BILE navigation laws, that have de-
graded American commerce with for
eign nations. AS the American flag
is not allowed to float over English
built ships, Americans are prohibited
going to England to buy them. The
consequence is, we do not build
ships, and are not allowed to
buy them, we are 9next to
