TWO MORE WRECKS.
A Disaster Near OhIcago-A Smash
up Near Daggctt.

up Near Daggctt.
In the telegraphic columns of the
HERALD will be found full account of
the terrible disaster which occurred on
the line of the Chicago, Santa Fe and
California early Yesterday morning. Mr..
and Mrs. Hart and family, who occupied
MIR. McCool's car, which was 80 badly
wrecked, only left Los Angeles on Sun
day, they being on their way home from
a tour in Southern California. Mr.. Hart
is director of the Atchison, so Mr.. Nc
Cool lent him his special car, with the
understanding that the General Manager,
who left for Chicago a few days later,
would bring it back with him
to Los Angeles. The first in
formation OF the catastrophe was
received in the office of the company
here early in the morning by dispatch
from Judge Brunson. The Judge, who
was also on his way to Chicago, was n
the wrecked train, and wired that it had
been teleseopsd and that Mr.. HaIt's son
and daughter were killed, but thai he
was at the time in the car ahead and
escaped unhurt. He also gave details
similar to those which will be found in
the Associated Press dispatches.
When the news was first circulated on
! the streets it was said that General Man
ager McCool had been killed, and that
gentleman's many friends rushed in
quiringly to the Company's Offices for
| information as to the reliability or unre-
| liability of the report. 1t was soon made
known, however, that Mr.. McCool was
two days behind the train carrying his
car and had, in fact, gone by another
route.
The wrecked car which, it is stated
was converted into mass of debris, was
one of the finest private coaches on the
lroai. 1t was originally built for Henry
| Willard, and no expense was spared IN
its construction, it being finished in ma
hogany and elaborately furnished. When
| Mr.. McCool was north the early part oi
last year he purchased it from the Oregon
Railway and Navigation Company fol-
$S, coo, and has since kept it for his pri
vate use.
STILL ANOTHER WRECK.
The Santa Fe wires had scarcely grown
cold telling about the disaster In the
early morning, when dispatch came
from Daggett reporting that another
wreck had occurred a few miles east o
that place. Subsequent advices showed
that a bridge had taken fire anc
burned out during the night, and wher
an eastbound freight came rattling along
in the mornings darkness, it plunged in
to the demolished structure and wat
hurled to the ground below. One of the
engine-men, named 0'Brien was instant
ly killed, but the rest of the trainmer
escaped with their lives, although badly
hurt. The engine and the cars that lef
the track were badly broken up, and al
traffic was delayed for several hours. 1
was lucky thing that it was not pas
senger train that came first, or else there
would have been terrible catastrophe t.

T7le awaal Cost 81 war.


According 70 a computation inst
issued By an eminent siatislieian the
cost in human life Of the wars Of the
last thirty four years has been 2,253,-
900 souis. The gfimean war cost
$50, 600 men /; the Italian war (IS59),
$4,000 the Danish war (1S84l, 5000;

states, 280, 900; the southern states,

$4,000; the Franco German war
France, $4,000; Germany, $4,000
the Turco-Russian war, $50, 900 the
Sonth African war, $4,000; the
Afghan war, 900 the Mexican and

and the Bnlgaro.S eryian insurrectioD
$4,000. This does not include NOR.
tality from sickness.
The above fearful catalogue Of
carnage give a FAINT idea Of the hor
rors Of war, TO which must be added
the suffering and starvation both
among the troops and the people in
the districts over which the war is
wagcd. The destruction of property
disruption OF families. rapine and a
host of attending evils.
The above statement is, however, in
correct in giving the loss of the south
as $40, 1000, and that of the north as
as 28l 900 in the late civil war, ez-
elusive of the mortality from sick
ness.
The northern army, as all historians
state, was the more numerous. In all
the great battles their losses were
much heavier. They we're invaders,
and naturally required a larger force
and we're more exposed to bullets
than the army acting on the defense.
No truthful historian pretends that
they lost fewer men than did the
armies. The immense pen
sion rolls which now seem to drain
the national treasury would indicate
that the loss of the northern army
from 1860 to 1865 was very far in
excess of the number above given.

It ia the common impression thai
The indictments Of forgery against
| E a. Burke we're puocursd more fol-
the purpose of obtaining his exlradi
ton than with any serious intention
of bringing him to punishment undel
such charges. Bat IN either case tbs
indictments amount TO nothing, unless
the charge Of forgery can be made
good.
1 "A man can not be extralited for
| forgery and then tried for embsZzle-
ment, arson, murder or any Othsr
erime committed prior to his extradi-
tion. Aud it is the practice Of
the courts of the country on
which the requisition IS made to
Feqnire some evidence, beyond the
mere writ Of extradiiion that theparty
is guilty rs charged,
Ia the United States such cases sre
tried by the CIrsuit OF District Court
or by commissioner, appointed by
either, and the case mast be made very
clear before the writ Is granted. As
an instance, the District Cont OF
! Texas, in lsSS, investigated the case
Of Riscb, Prussia0, whose extEEditIop
was sought on the charge Of nlardeT.
| The records show that the case was
examined almost as carefully as if the
accHssd had been On trial fer his life.
Amore recent example Is the case
Of Burke, the Cronin suspect, whose
examination by the Canadian court
lasted for several DAYS before a deC}-
sion was rendered in favor of his eX-
tradition. 1t needless to say that the
English courts would entertain for
moment a charge that Was formulated
merely as a preteKt for eTtUE3illoD. and
it is absurd to suppose thst the Attorney
General and bis coRBselioHs WeRid lend
themselves to any such silly schemes.
The Item believes that the grand

bringing in the indictments for for

The Item has never believed that
the talk about extrsdition would
amount TO much anyway. although We
think that the attempt ought to be
made. The world is a big place and
steam locomotion is rapid. Itls not
likely that Burke will sit still and
