ATLANTA, Nov. 10.-The outgoing
Western and Atlantic passenger train

the accident was in sharp curve eight
miles from the city. The train was
making speed of twenty-five miles an

Engineer Barrett detected something
wrong, but before he got the engine

clear across the track, the tender ran
upon and against the engine while the
mail Car plowed into the embankment
half way over the engine before it
stopped.
But one man, tramp stealing ride,
was killed.
An investigation shows that at the
spot where the engine flew the track the
rail had been taken up, every spike
drawn and all piled together about
twenty feet from the track. One end of
the rail ON the other side had been I'M

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The contest
for the speakership of the national house
of representatives will begin in earnest
in about ten days. The candidates win
open their headquarters here then, and
an active canvass will be made until the

Strange Chicken Disease.

alarming disease is raging among
chickens in this locality and is puzzling
the chicken raisers here. The fowl first
becomes blind, then the head swells tc
an enormous size, and in a few hours
the fowl reels over and dies. Eggs have
been advancing ON this account, and if
the rate at which they are dying be kept
up long there will be very few fowls
left. Your reporter had an interview
with farmer who is one of the largest
chicken raisers in this county, and he
says that about two-thirds of this years
crop are lost from the disease, and says
that he has not so far found any cure.

Culture of the Poppy and Traffic in Opium
Encouraged by Britain for Profit.
New YORK, Nov TO- Hira I.al
Kumar, of Calcutta, spoke on the opium
traffic in India in the Madison avenue
Episcopal church, of this city, Sunday
night. He charged the English govern
ment with encouraging the consumption
of opium among its subjects in India for
the sake Of revenue. In order to en-
courage and stimulate the cultivation of
the poppy plant upward of 5000, 900 acres
of the best lands of India, he said, is de-
voted to its cultivation, and the annual
average production is 10000 900 pounds,
which is consumed in India, China and
Burmah. The government of India, in
fact, is the sole manufacturer and
wholesale trader in the baneful drug.
The vice of opium smoking, he declared,
was increasing to an alarming extent in
India. Concluding, he said that merely
for the greed of gain the people of the
United Kingdom have sacrificed every
principal of morality The unmitigated
misery and distress produced by the
spread of opium tells heavily on the peo-
