Investigation Into the Cause OF tho Lo-
high Valley Railroad Disaster.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. l2.--1ho Of
feers OF the Lehigh Valley road have as
yet received no detailed report of the dis
astrous accident which occurred Wcdncs-
day night ut Mud Run. Brief kilograms
from the superintendent Of tho division
states that lifty-fvc deaths occurred at the
scene OF the accident and four OF the in
iured have since died at the WilkesbIrre
hospital.
"We do not know who is responsible, "
taid an official OF the company, "and we
will not know until careful inye sligation
shall bc made. Before that il done We
will not venture any statement that might
irreparably njure some Of our employees.
II is certain, though, that nothing that
could have been done in the way ofrulcs was
wanting, and carelcssness or neglect In tho
enforcement of these must nave caused
the disaster. We know that the train
lights were all properly placed, aud that
the rear train was sgnaled, and that
Is all We do know. The system Of train

LoNDoN, Oct. l2.-Dr. Mackenzie, in
his book on the case Of the late Emperor
Frederick, states that after the Emperors
death an attempt was made to entrap him
into a false position, and II was therefore
settled that no post norton examination
should be made. Dr. Mackenzie was urged
TO write his opinion as 10 the nature OF the
disease, doubtless in the hope that think
ing himself safe from exposure he would
answer ambiguously, but he Disconnected
his enemies by declaring the disease can

operation OF thyroiomy in cases of cancer
Is Of deadly character, the mortality
amounting TO 81 por cent. He also con-
tends tina, in majority Of cases il is in
adequate for a complete removal OF the
growth, the average occurrences amounting
to almost 30 per cent.
The voice Is destroyed or modified in
T.77 per cent. Of the whole number OF
cases.
DR.. Mackenzie holds that in case Of
such transcendcnt Importance such an
operation would not have been justified
without the clcarost proof Of It's necessity,
which ho declares WIS not forthcoming
until n late period Of the Emporor's illness.
DR.. Gcrhardt's testimony Is held by DIR.
Mackenzie to be that OF discredited rival,
and ho dismisscs the evidence Of DIR.
Landgraf on the ground Of his lack OF skill
IN the use Of the larynoscopc, which was
~ marked that the Emperor was with
difficulty prevented from Diminishing him.
Dr. Mackenzie similarly objects TO Dr.
Bramann's evidence, and advances tho
testimony OF experts like Dr. Krause,
Woicndon and Howell In ebuttal. lie
condemns Dr. Gerhnrdts ruthless cauteri-
zltion for many consecutive days as utterly
uneNamped, aud ns likely to irrtato the
disease, II benign, into malignant form.
DIR. Mackenzie states that in twenty-five
cases Of thyrotomy for cancer, two were
successful. In thirty.fye eases Of partial
excelsior OF the laynx, ono was successful,
ard Of l3l cases Of total cXtirpation, eight
were successful.
DR., Mackenzie admits that tho published

IN the fact that he has been Pittstou

she Put Him to Il Test.

An amusing story comes from one of
the clubs here, n club which adorns the
sacred slopes of Beacon Hill, SAYS II
Boston letter to the Providence Joar=
RaA Mr.; A.; Il scion Of an old house,
has noble ~pretcnsions but limited IL
nanccs, and had his eyes fixed longing
ly upon the Golfers of Il maiden aunt
who has Il good deal of money and far
more brains than some of the younger
members Of his family. The young
man had gamblcd heavily, and ut last
got himself into n state of financial
chaos. where he had nothing left but
absolute reputation of his debts of
honor or suicide, unlcsshis aunt would
play the role of fairy godmothcr, as
she had done before. In desperation
he applied to her, of course without
specifying the nature of the transac-
tons which had left him SO heavily in
volvea. The old lady was too shrewd,
however, not to know.
Been gambling, ch?" she said.
well, I've paid your gambling debts
before, and | can again | suppose; but
this time I'll make a condition."
With some trepidatlon the nephew
inquired what the condition was.
You need a wife to keep YOU
straight his aunt answered. with a
wicked CLEAN in her eve. Nov, YOU
have had every opportunity to choose
a good wife. and you haven't done it.
Now, none of the girls in our set would
take you for Il gift, ever with my mon
ey thrown in. SO I've selected one fol
you. She's good and pious, and
healthy-surc TO outlive V and not
~bad-looking. She's old enough to take
are of you and herself, too, and il
you'll marry her I'll do something
handsome for YOU
Who is shc?" the young man de-
handed.
She's my nurse just at present. but
! can get another if you can't spare
her"
"Oh, | can spare her perfectly well,
aunt; and | could nevcrthink of taking
her away from YOU
The end of all the talk was that Tho
young man did actually agree to mar.
ry Il woman who was said to be 40 and
his aunt's hired nurse, hisdebts coulG
be paid and he guaranteed an income
of $4,000 annually.
And what he got by it was that his
aunt invited y cousin, his rival in Til,
race for the old lady's fortune. to din.
ncr and told him the story, adding tina,
she had simply made the proposal as s
test, and that she should refuse to re
ccive at her house Il man who would
marry Il scrvantfo money. The affair
is still unsettled SO far as the gambling
debts 20, and it can hardly be helt
thatit presents the aunt III an am:able
light.
