literally ploughed their way thl ough each

conglomerate mass Of shattered ma

occurred between the smoking-car and the
passenger coach next to 1t. The smoker
teiescoped its way into the other coach fully
one-half its length, and how any one who
was In either car escaped death Is mys-

burned up. The next two cars kept the
track, although they telescoped together and
were almost completely demolished. Except
for scratches and bruises the passengers IN

The Yellow River Again Causes

Letters from China bring terrible &C.
counts Of the loss OF life and property caused
by the breaking OF the banks Of the Yellow
River. which is aptly called "Chinas Sor-
row." 1t Is only three years since the whole
basin of the river was flooded, and now
comes new flood fully. as disastrous as the

trict is $50 miles long by thirty miles wide.
that over sc, 600 people have been drowned,
and that fully 1000, 600 will starve to death
unless tho Chinese Government furnishes
thvm food from now until next spring.
These figures furnish some idea OF tho
enormity OF the calamity, in which, in
SINGLE villages, the whole loss OF life at
Johnstown Ii surpassed. The work OF
strene ethening the embankment Of the river
was poorly done three years ago. and the
high water this season swept away the
dikes as though they were made
of straw. In several districts tho water is
fifteen feet deep, and whole families are
perched on the roofs Of their houses. Only
the more substantial structures resist the
action Of the water, the majority OF the
houses crumbling away and carrying tne
wretched people to death.
