JOHN BRIGHT'S RELIGION.
How IL Influenced Him in Regard to
Political Affairs.

Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON, April 29.-Dr. Dale, of Birming-
ham, who knew John Bright long and init
mately, contributes an interesting character
sketch with "reminiscences to the May Conter,-
pord,y Reuieac. He says: bright had noble
moral austerity in the conception of God
which made him an advocate Of the laisser
faire in politics. He cared supremely for de-
velopment Of individual character, and pre-
ferred the material prosperity Of the people
advancing slowly by their own efforts to
quicker progress by state aid His favorite
religious books were "Jesus of the Evangel-
lists" by Rowe, and "Catholic Thought on the
Bible" by Myers. Bright ascribed his CONVEX
sion to a visit paid him in early manhood by
the old Quaker Benjamin Seebohm. Il had
before, said Bright, delighted in the Bible,
but now SO fully that had discovered in it
divine relation to every man. Henceforth
was brought more fully under the personal
power of Christ" Bright told Dale he read
throughout Millions Paradise Regained'
every Sunday. He selected one poet and read
him every night after leaving the house of
commons

A BROKEN WHEEL.
What Caused the Terrible Accident at
Hamilton-A Woman's Sad Story.

BUFFALO, N. T., April ga number Of sur
vivors Of the Grand Trunk accident reached
here last night A. d. wylie, of Chicago, Of
the Rock Island road, says that the Inflated
train was not running at over 20 miles an hour
at the time Of the accident. He believed the
wreck was caused by a broken wheel. The
worst sight he saw was man from Chicago
who had his head cut off. He was the life Of
the train from the time il left Chicago and
only few minutes before the accident Mr..
Wylie was talking to him.
Mrs. Benjamin describes her experience as
terrible. Just before the accident he was look
ing out the window admiring a little hamlet
which they were passing. "a gentleman was
standing near me-" she said, land after mark
ing the pretty scenery started for the smoker
As he reached the door there was q terrible
crash, a cloud of dust, and seemingly a shower
of stars, and then everything became a blank.
In a short time came to my senses and found
myself lying on my back tightly wedged be-
tween the timbers. Near me l could hear
man crying Ny God! my arms; get me out of
here This nerved me and managed to pull
myself out. tried TO get the man out, but as
I was doing so the flames began to dart from
between the timbers, and had to fee to save
my own life and leave the poor man to his fate.

ON THE RAGGED EDGE.
Ohioans Cunning for Ex-Mayor Smith
who Hopes to be Collector of Customs.

There is one Ohio man in town who would
have been at the White House to-day if the
President was there. His name is Ed
ward Richie, he is lawyer, and
he halls from Cincinnati. He is loaded
for ex-Mayor Amor Smith and he expects to
reach him at the first fire. Mr.. Smith would
like to be collector of customs at Cincinnati,
and he has general idea that the republican
party owes him just that particular place.
Senator Sherman thinks so too, and so does
Representative Caldwell, and they have done
their best with the President to have the COM
mission made out. The President, however,
delayed, and the delay has probably been
fatal one so far as Mr.. Smith is concerned
The news Of his candidacy was spread abroad
unexpectedly, and then large and influential
class of citizens arose and said that that ap-
pointment ought not to be made. They claim
that Smith has catered to the saloon
element in all his political matters
and they state very emphatically that every
minister of the gospel in the state of Ohio will
willingly sign petition demonstrating against
even a consideration of Mr.. Smiths claims
The Cincinnati citizens committee of 500 de-
clares that Smith is unfit for the place and can
not receive the Endorsement of the better class
OF people either in the city or the state.
All this and great deal more will be told
the President by Mr.. Richie when the Presi-
dent returns. Senator Sherman had hoped to
in Office before May /, when the Senator
sails for Europe, but this interference has put
down the brakes and now the Senator will go to
foreign lands, leaving Mr.. Smith roosting on
the edge OF the gigantic national tureen with
tendency to fall backward into the

THE CITY POST-OFFICE.
The Meauest Official Quarters I'm the
Country.

Mr.. whitfield the second assistant postmas-
ter-general. visited the post-ofice in this city
recently. He was formerly postmaster at Gin
cinnati and knows what a good post-ofice is
and what facilities are necessary for carving
on the business. After looking around the
building Mr.. Whitfield remarked, II think
that if few more Improvements are made to
this building It will be the meanest post-ofice
in the country" Mr.. Whitfield said TO STAR
reporter that he was surprised that the busi-
ness of the Office was carried on in as efficient
manner as it was in such an abominable build
ing.
COMMISSION TO BE ApPoISyED.
1t is understood that the Postmaster-Genersl
is contemplating the appointment Of commits
sion to investigate and report upon the entire
matter. This will include the consideration of
the advisability of occupying the hall of
the Pension building, the Postmaster
General is authorized to do by
Congress, or obtaining another building. 1t is
thought that such commission would not rec
ommend the removal of the Office to the PEN
sion Office and il is said that there is no build
ing TO be obtained in this city that would be
available. However, the commission can re-
port the present condition of affairs, and their
report can be presented to Congress.
Both the ostmaster-General and the first Is
slstant, MIR. Clarkson. have visited the post
office, and their views in regard to the building
coincide with those of Mr.. Whitfield.

persistently denied Cooks story. The detec-
hves, professional and amateur all agree that
the important point to be settled first is the
loenuty OF the murdered woman. When her
name ana circumstances are known il Is thought
tnat II VIII be comparatively easy task to trace
ner movements and discover her murderer.
POSSIBLE CLUE TO THE IDENTITY OF THE VICTIM
AsrAR reporter learned this afternoon the
clue on which the detectives were working and
which has taken Detective Raft on another trip
trip to Maryland. He will probably visit the
vicinity OF Annapolis Junction When the
murder was first discovered and discussed the
name OF colored woman named Beckie John
son was mentioned as being possibly the VIC
tim. This woman lived, it Is stated. in the
neighborhood of Annapolis Junction and had
lived In Baltimore. The Maryland authorities.
It appears, dropped this clue to work on Others
that appeared more promising. Information
received to-day, however, indicates that the
that she may have been murdered. She is de-
scribed as mulatto woman, similar in appear.
snce to the murdered woman.
The Maryland authorities have found the
Mamie Gardner who, it was supposed. might
be the murdered woman, and SO that cine is
disposed of. Little information was EXPECTED
to-day until the case of Beckie johnson has
been investigated.
ANOTHER POSSIBLE CLUE.
The photograph was exhibited to a number
of colored persons at police headquarters this
afternoon, but none Of them were able to
identify it. One colored man named
q. W. Cartwright. who lives in Rup-
perts court, near Sd and c streets south
east, said that young colored woman
answering. the description Of the murdered
woman disappeared from her home Friday,
the goth instant, the day before the body is
supposed to have been placed in the woods on
the Sheriff road. He did not know the name
of the woman who disappeared, but
she lived in Rupperts court with her aunt,
Mrs. Pinkney. Cartwright said that the miss
ing woman went to her service place Friday and
drew her wages and has not been seen SINCE
This statement is regarded as possible clue
and will be investigated by the police.
A colored woman named Martha Ages. who
lives In southeast Washington, thought that the
picture resembled the married daughter of
Georgiana Harper, of Anacostia.
The young woman, she said, was married
about two years ago, and went to Cornwall-on-
the-Hudson.
He was not positive that the photograph was
a hkneness of the woman she mentioned

The reporters could get nothing from the de-
tectives this morning respecting the Benning's
murder mystery, except sagacious looks and
knitted brows. Inspector Swindells, as he sat
at bis desk at police headquarters, had a look
of deep thought on his face but reporters were
unable to sound the depths Of his meditations
The Office cat also had knowing look as it
perched on a shelf near the inspectors desk
and cooked one ear back in rakish way. About
10 o'clock Detective Raft, who is engaged in
working out the clues obtained by the detect
ives, entered the Office with rapid strides. He
had private interview with the inspector and
then called in from the outside a mysterious
looking man with black moustach, red neck
tie, ana yellowish pantaloons. Soon the man
with the livid tie left and the reporters fol-
lowed him, but his lips were sealed. Detective
Raft remained few minutes in the Office. To
the inquiries of reporters he replied only with
quiet SMILE 1t was smile that implied con-
hdence and satisfaction as though he were
NEARING THE END OF HIS LONG SEARCH
to establish the identity Of the murdered
woman and of her unknown assassin. The de-
tective then started out of the Office again, but
stopped on the curb and looked thoughtfully at
the sky. He evidently got An idea from that
source. for he returned into the Office and got
his umbrella. Then he was off again, as the
reporters understood for . trip into Prince
Georges county. Wait" he said to a STAR
reporter, II think there may be story for you
tonight"
AT police headquarters and everywhere else
where there is interest in mysterious crime
and that is pretty nearly everywhere in the
city-the case is still under discussion. Up to
to-day all that is known is that a woman has
been murdered Her name, the name of her

now is
