ATLEAsT TWO KILLED

Late Despatch Tells of a Railway Dis-
aster Ia Iowa
CHICAGO, June II Information has
been received early this, Wednesday,
morning Of disastrous wreck on The
Milwaukee and St. Paul road about half
mile east Of Coon Rapids,
Iowa. A passenger train
consisting OF the engine, baggage, mail
and express cars, several coaches and two
sleepers crashed through the bridge over
Coon river. Only the rear sleeper re-
manned on the track.
Two passengers are known to have been
killed and large number injured. The
engineer escaped unhurt but the con-
ductor and one brakeman are reported
badly injured. Help from adjoining
stations was sent and corps of physicians
is now on the scene. It was raining hard
al the time Of the accident and the dark
ness and storm increased the
awful confusion. Details received
al the office here are very meagre
No names are given and the crew at the
scene are too busy rescuing passengers to
obtlin the particulars. The superinten-
dent Of the Iowa division was at Omaha

WALES ADMITS HIS ERROR.
His Royal HIahness Defended by the
British Secretary OF war.


LONDON, june 1G.-The Hon. Edward
Stanhope, secretary of state for war,
replying in the house of commons to a
question put by NJ. William Summers
Gladstone libe' al in regard TO the
baccarat scandal, sad that Sir William
Gordon Cumming was the chief person
who had broken faith, because he did
not report the case 10 his commanding
officer. If an otfense was committed
by any other person it could only have
consisted in advising ard pressing him
70 take a different course than laid
down by the army regulations.
Ot the three oIucers concerned Gen
Owen Williams was a retired officer Of
the army and was therefore not sub
ject to the regulations, but the other
two-6eld marshal, the Prince of Wales
and Lieut.. Berkeley Leyett-undoubt
cdly were.
The regulations had never been
specially brought 10 the notice of the
Prince of Wales, but when they were
brought TO his notice, and looking
back at all the circumstances of the
case, the Prince OF Wales saw the error
of Judgment which he had COM
mitted in not requiring Sir William
Gordon Cumming to Immediately re-
port the matter to his commanding
officer
Mr. >tanhope added: 'Tn this view
of the ease ! concur, but ! should like
to express my own personal opinion
that had some one else suddenly heard
that one Of his friends, who had great
" distinguished himself in the service,
had been accused as Sir William Cor
don Cumming was accused, he certain
~ would have hesitated before at once
advising a course which would imme-
diately and irretrievably blight his
whole future career
Lieut.. Berkeley Levett, on the other
hand continued Mr.. Stanhope had
written a letter 10 his commanding
officer expressing deep regret that he
had not acted in accordance with the
army regulations.
Consequently. said the secretary Of
war, ID conclusion. lit was not pro-
posed to take any further action in the
matter.

in the country. Taken with its natural
and Legitimate adjunct, the reciprocity
policy for expansion of trade with Central
and South America. it is SO strong that
democrats would like to dodge it if they
could Nor are they to blame. They
cannot agree among themselves what sort
of a change in the tariff they want. A
large portion of them know that the new
tariff is helping the industries of the
country beyond all calculation They
know that any attempt to frame diff
ferent tariff would split the democratic
party, Randall's death did not take from
the east all the democrats who can see
daylight. The organs of importers at
New York tell the party il. must eight for
free-trade or be beaten. Against them is
t! e personal interest of every American
worker, every American manufacturer,
and all the farmers who are able to COM
prehend what is going on in the world.
The people are going to vote about tie
tariff question in the next presidential
campaign, because there is no other that
so directly concerns their happiness or
their individual prosperity.
