ANARROW ESCAPE.
Chicago Street Car Passengers III
Great Peril-Nobody Hurt.

Chicago Street Car Passengers I'm
Great Peril-Nobody Hurt.
CHICAGO, Sept.24.-Fifteen persons mar
rowly escaped cold bath and possibly
death by drowning in the river at CLARK
street early this morning. The night cal
of the Lincoln avenue line tumbled oveI
the north approach to the bridge into the
water shortly before o'clock. The acct
dent was the result either of the careless
ness of the driver or of the failure of the
brake to work after the car struck the
long incline leading down from the ap'
proach from the viaduct
The bridge had been opened just as the
street car appeared on the viaduct to allow
a barge to pass The driver says he applied
the brake, but the car, instead of hating
shot down against the horses and striking
them with good deal of force sent them
tearing down the hill. He could not con
troll either the brakes or the horses.
The conductor seeing that serious &C
cident was imminent called to the passen
gers to save themselves and jumped from
the flying car. The passengers jumped
for the doors and windows and fairl,
climbed over each other in their haste t.
get out, and with rare good luck all sue
ceeded in reaching the street before the ca
took its tumble. Nobody was hurt. TIL

The Association and Players League
Said to Have Joined Hands.
LOUISVILLE, Sept. 24.-There is no
longer any doubt about the amalgamation
of the American association and Brother
hood, for with the exception of signing
the agreement the deal has been consum-
mated There will be Sunday ball, and a
general admission fee of twenty-five cents.
The following clubs will be represented in
the new organization, which will be known
as the American Association and Players
league:
Philadelphia, Boston, New York, Brook
lyn, Baltimore and Pittsburg in the east,
and Chicago, Louisville, St. Louis, Column
bus, Cleveland and Cincinnati in the west.
The American association dictated the
terms and the Players league agreed to
them. There was no trouble over the
question of % cent ball, but when it was
proposed to play Sunday games there was
strenuous kick from two supporters of
the Players league. That alone prevented
the perfecting of the project at the time.
and Ward and Brunell were instructed to
use their influence in making the two
magnates agree to Sunday ball. Had they
and take in two other cities in their places.
The Brooklyn National and Brotherhood
clubs will combine. The Athletics and
Philadelphia club will do the same, and
the Cincinnati club will jump to the new
organization. Stern will retain his inter
est in the club and the reported sale OF
the team to the Players league is merely a
blind. All of these plans were perfected
| at the meeting held in Philadelphia which
the Association and Brotherhood people
denied any knowledge of at the time
The secret session was held in the Colon
made hotel.
The eastern trips for the Western clubs
or vice versa, has cut a big hole in the re
ceipts, and the new organizations will
make but two trips. Ten games will b.
| played by the western clubs in the east OF
each trip, and llesame will be done by
| the eastern clubs in the west. The fore
| going information was given by an officia
who is in position to know, and it car
be relied upon as being authentic.

AUTUMNAL ADVICE.

Keep your feet warm and dry.
Wear waterproof boots in preference to arc
tics or rubbers.
Keep your eye on your umbrella-you will need
it yourself.
Stop cough a cold at once. Pneumonia
and consumption may be started by either.
If you wear rubbers take them off whenever
you have the chance, even if only for few min
utes.
If you feel cough or q cold coming on take a
drink of pure whskey at once. 1t will keep the
blood in circulation and is the best preventive
against the diseases of the season.
Remember that only pure whiskey should be
taken. Dufys Pure Malt Whiskey has the
strongest recommendations from the leading
scientists and medical men in the country, sand is
the only standard medicinal whiskey known.
Insist on having it. SOS oaw

Their Relations Discussed at the

PITrsBuRG, Sept. pat the meeting of
the Catholic congress last night DR.. Schra-
der of Washington spoke on ''The Church
and the Republic" He said it was often
heard here that the church was against the
government and the constitution, but this
is an injustice. Though the constitutions
of church and state differ they do not con-
tradict each other, as the principal object
of each is the benefit of mankind. To
accomplish this great object they differed
only in means. There is but one church
founded by God, but there are, many
states founded by men. Catholicism is q
| bulwark against socialism. We know God
appointed the pope his representative on
earth when he gave him the keys Of
heaven; he also appointed the presidents

any form of government. The speaker

best in the world. [Great applause. Oul
religion teaches us to obey the law, hence

THE BIRCHELL TRIAL,

A Large Number of Witnesses Ex-
amined-SOme Damaging Evidence
Against the Accused.
WOODSTOCK, Ont, Sept. 4.-The third
day of the great murder trial opened with
the case looking decidedly black for Birch
all. Every point in the damaging evil
dence advanced by the crown is being op-
posed with mastery skill by the defense,
bat the grim line of evidence remains I'M
broken. The defense so far has been ex-
tremely severe in cross-examination. What
will be offered when the defense opens
its case remains mystery. The case
opened with the introduction of medical
testimony.
A large number of witnesses testified
this afternoon and the cumulative testi-
mony was strongly against Birchall.
Nevertheless when the prisoner came out
of the court house this evening he looked
unconcernedly at the crowd that had gath
cred to see him and half smile bright
ened his handsome face An impor-
tant discovery in the Birchall case was
made by Government Detective Murray to-
day. 1t will be remembered that a sensa-
ton was made after Benwell's body was
identified by the discovery of the entry
"F. G. Benwell" on the register of the
Commercial hotel, Brantford, Ont, date of
January 10. The coincidence of the names
was remarkable, and Birchalls lawyers re-
lied upon the circumstance in shaking the
crowns case. To-day Archibald Nyma
and Baird Murray, both living at Brant-
ford at the time of the murder, confessed
to Detective Murray that the entry was
made for lark. Two fictitious entries were
made, one "F. C. Benwell, Bristol, Eng"
and another ~. w. Rogers, Europe"
This is heavy blow for the defendant.
