three Of them sleepers, two day coaches, bag
gage car and an express and mail car, stopped
Tor the crossing, and after receiving the signal
the engineer started 10 cross. The Rock Island
dummy was approaching from the north. The
engineer shut on the air valve, but the brakes did
not work. His engine was within 100 feet OF
the Santa Fe passenger crossing. To reverse
his lever and pull the throttle out was the work
Of but an Instant He next opened the sand
valve. The wheels caught, but not sufficiently
to hold the train. II plunged into the
last sleeper on the Santa Fe. This sleeper,
the ''Chaldea," was three-fourths over the
crossing when the pilot and boiler head of the
Rock Island engine plunged into the boudoir,
knocking the forward trucks from beneath the
car and crushing in the side like an egg shell:
There we're twelve passengers in the "Chsldea, !"

IF There Is Any Wall Street Combine.
ton the Treasury Does Not Feel 1t.

II it is true that Wall street spectators have
bought up s2o,0O0,oO0 in bonds, forming q
syndicate to force the Secretary of the Treas
ury to buy at their price to prevent q strin-
gency in the money market, their enterprise
has proven a failure.
''All we know about it," said Assistant Secre-
tary Batcheller to . STAR reporter today, sis
that we are getting all the bonds we want 81
our own figure. If there has been any suL
attempt as described it has failed. We Tot
"a, 900 Of bonds yesterday at Sl.28, our own
price, and already this morning we have offers
of two million more at the same price, This is
better than we have don before. We can get
all the bonds We want at our own price. There
is no danger Of a stringency in the money mar
ket There is now an abundance of money.
With two millions day going into the banks I
imagine no one expects a stringency."
''Of course" suggested the STAR man, ''there
is not the same demand for money now that
there will be when the crops are being moved"
We'll cross that bridge when we get to it"
replied Mr.. Batcheller. "but you can depend
upon it the Treasury department is not going
to permit financial panic under this admins
tration."

Special Dispatch to The EVENING star.
DAYTON, ONO, Aug. 27.-Already there a an
immense crowd in Dayton in advance Of the
democratic convention and most bitter fight
is on. Lawrence T. Neal and Jas. T. Campbell,
the principal candidates for the guberna-
torial nomination, came in last night,
and this morning Virgil P. Kline,
whose supporters claim for him the bal
ance Of power, arrived. All have opened
hard with their lieutenants. sensation was
created early this morning by the distribution
Of a number Of circulars in which the Congress
sional Record was quoted showing Campbelrs
tariff record in Congress, his leaning toward
protection and his recent conversion to the
principles of democracy. Upon learning Of
their existence Mr.. Neal ordered all the
circulars gathered up and destroyed.
CAMPBELL IS UNDOUBTEDLY LOSING GROUND
every hour. as his friends are put on the de-
fensive and are compelled constantly to
explain his record; but it is not at
all unlikely that his original strength
was SO great that he can afford to
lose q great deal. His managers have
until this morning, claimed his nomination on
the first ballot, but today one Of his chief lieu
tenants said that there would probably be two
ballots, resulting in the choice of Campbell.
The Neal men, however, are very confident and
are making
RAPIDLY GAINING FIGHT.
They claim that the Cincinnati party, which
supports Campbell, hurts him with the county
delegations. Some Of the Neal men
are SO sanguine as to predict his nomination on
the first ballot. 1t is generally conceded
that Kline will have probably 125 votes on the
first ballot His chief lieutenant, Judge Blan-
din. says that q part Of the Cuyahogs delega-
ton, under the leadership Of Sheriff
Sawyer, may bolt to Campbell
on the second ballot. but in that case the
bulk of the Kline following will 20 to Neal.
Neal has the able support Of J. II. Thomas,

THE BLACK DIAMOND.
A Story that the Vessel Belongs to
Citizens Of the United States.

II an unofficial rumor which has reached the
State department is confirmed it will give an
almost comical effect to the angry remonstrance
Of the Canadians agains. the operations Of the
revenue cutter Rush in Behring sea. The story
is to the effect that the steam sealer Black
Diamond, which was the first vessel seized this
year, is owned in q large degree, if not en-
tirely, by citizens of the United States. The in
formation came to the department incidentally
while quiet inquiry was being made into the
truth of the statement that the United States
vice consul at Victoria is interested largely in
some colonial vessels illegally seized in Beb-
ring sea, which statement has 90 far not been
officially confirmed.

THE EXTRA SESSION TALK.
A Strong Impression That One WIN be
Called to Meet In October.

While II Is more than likely that President
Harrison has not told any one directly that he
would call an extra session of Congress to meet
on the 21st Of October his conversation
on the subject with leading members Of his
party has led them to expect that the meeting
Of Congress would be on that date. He has
discussed the question with several, and
the reasons he has given for think
ing . special session should be called
for the 2ist have been such "a to lead all to the
conclusion that the call would be issued. Those
who are opposed to an early meeting as we'll az
those who favor it have come to this conclu-
aon. They are satisfied that he will decide
TO 90 what he has 80 much in mind There
any one who has been giving the matter at
tention and has talked with Mr.. Harrison on
the subject at all
N Favor or An HARLY MEETING.
Most OF the strongest party leaders favor IN
early meeting, and all agree that If there Is to
be special session. the earlier it is called, after
the party Il In shape to do anything, the bet
ter IT viii be. II was not thought wise to
Try to organize the House until they
had got all the votes together that
y a. was possible for them to; but lis deemed
after the elections in the new states are de-
cided: A call for the 2lst of October will give
time for this, and also for the election Of the
sucoessors to Laird and Gay.
LONG SESSION EXPECTED.
One thing that makes the average member
dread an early meeting Of Congress is the idea
that when Congress gets together it will be q
long while before an adjournment is had They
are prepared to be here all next summer.
Some few who are arguing against an extra
session cite the Virginia and Ohio elections this
fall 40 hindrance, saying that absence Of
members TO take part in these campaigns will
take away the republican majority. This argu-
ment is easily met, however, by the proposition
to assemble October Il.
THE REPUBLICANS
will need majority in the House when they
elect their Speaker and other officers, but after
that 10 accomplished there will be no need Of
anxiety until after the committees are appointed.
1t will take some time to appoint the
committees, and meanwhile the members who
are interested in pending elections may be in
the field II they desire to. Moreover these cleo
tions will take away democrats as well as repub-
licans, and the absentees are apt to about bal
