FATAL COLLISION.
TWO TRAINS ON THE PlTTS6URG AND
FIT. WAYNE COME TOGETHER.


Seven Persons Killed and Several Others
Fatally Injured-Five of tho Victims
Creu,ated in the Wreck Disobeyed
Orders.
PlTTsBURa, Sept. 21.-The following
information was obtained at the Office of
Superintendent Watts of the Pennsyl-
vania: Seven persons killed and five
injured, two passenger cars burned and
two freight cars damaged in terrible
head-end collision at Shreve, on the
Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago
about 3 o'clock a. m. The colliding
trains were 4 section of freight train No.
Is and express train No. 8, due in Pitts
burg from Chicago at = o'clock. The
cause of the accident was the neglect of
orders on the part Of the freight train
crew. Details of the accident are
meagre and local officials OF tho railroad
company can give no particulars.
From the latter SQUIRE" it WAS learned
that the limited mail, No. s, was speed
ing past SIlreve with supposed clear
track. The freight had been ordered to
lay on sidiug at Wooster to allow the
express to pass. For some as yet UNI
known reason the order was disregarded
and the freight pulled out and
was under full heanway when the
flash of the headlights was the
first warning received by the
engineers, who simultaneously reversed
their engines. This was too late. and
the huge engines plunged into each
other almost at full speed. The crash
was terrible as the trains came together
The engines reared high from the track,
while their momentum drove them
fairly through each other, and then,
with the Kissing steam and scalding
water pouring from every seam and
rivet, they fell into the ditch alongside
the track. The freight cars telescoped
one another, until little but tumble Of
wood and iron remained. The panic
stricken passengers, bruised and stunned,
were thrown from their seats. With
| the first crash the lives of tho doomed
went out. The passenger engineer, fire
man, two postal clerks and two passen-
gers from the express, and the fireman
and front brakeman on the freight we ],
instantly killed. The engineer of the
freight jnmped from his engine and es-
caped instant death, but was seriously
injured The postal car caught fire and
spread rapidly to the two express cars,
baggage car, smoker and first coach.
The night was pitch dark and the
spectacle was illuminated with the
brilliant glare from the rapidly burning
cars. The accident occurred about two
miles from the village of Shreve, but
the country folk, trainlnen and passen-
gers at once set about the work of rescu-
ing those imprisoned in the wrecked
coaches. A messenger was dispatched
to Shreve for assistance, and from that
point word was sent to the railway Off
cial+. The names of the killed so far as
learned are:
| FIREMAN CHARLES SMITH.
| BRAKEM.tH Nick HAMLIN.
| BRAKEMAN a. Il. GLENN.
| -Four unknown women aud one baby
| bodies consumed.

G. A. r., General Palmer with his aides
and associates left the column and took
the places provided for them in front of
the state, war and navy building. These
reviewing stands are of decided artistic
merit. The one occupied by Vice Presi-
dent Morton, members of the cabinet,
with their families and visitors stands
directly in front of thetreasury building.
A graceful, domelike roof or can
opy which covers the central portion
has been appropriately draped in gilt
and colors, the national colors, of course,
prevailing. Flags of the United States
and the emblems Of the Grand Army
constitute an important portion of the
decorations. Equally pleasing, but of
very different design, is the stand
from which Commander-in-C Chief Pal
mer and his staff and invited
guests reviewed the marching veterans.
This stand is much larger than the vice
presidents and shows moro especially the
distinctive character of the occasion.

When the procession's end reached
the reviewing stand it was after
o'clock. 1t took over six hours for the
parade to pass. Vice President Morton
and the others of the reviewing party
stood the ordeal well and continued
even to the last post to show marching
veterans the usual courtesy. 1t is esti-
mated that there We're fully 10000 vet

slight accidents to the old veterans dur

A display of fireworks and an cleo

SEVERED ALL CONNECTIONS.

Tho Great Northern Withdraws from, the
Trans-IIissouri Association.
CHICAGO, Sept. 21.-The Southern
Pacific has served notice of withdrawal
from the Transcontinental association
and the Great Northern has freed itself
entirely from all its connections with
association rules by giving notice of its
intention to withdraw from the Trans
Missouri Association on Jan. /. The
end is now as plain as ifit had arrived.
Prominent officials agreed that the plan
of voluntary assignment founded on
the unsupported pledges of it's members
is failure. The majority of the Off.
cials agree that the time will be ripe for
new association early in the year, but
before that each line will be so crowded
with traffic rs not to feel the need of
combination. When the time comes for
a new association it must not only be a
money pool but a penalty pool as pro-
posed by Judge Springer.

A MOTH IN THE MILLS.
1t is a Foreign Importation and Is Doin
Great Damage.

Great Damage.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 0-Vhe Morning
Call has been investigating the subject
of the presenca in the -four mills of this
city and sts+a cf the Mediterranean
-four moth, aHu declares that it has
already become "a alarming pest, re-
sulting i'll tla l45s of thousands of
dollars to number OF large establish,
ments, and that it viii result in still
greater loss before very long. The
statement ag2 based mainly upon in
terviews with w. G. Johnson, professor
of entomology n the Stamford universe
ty, and with number Of -four manu-
factuers.
They state that there is hardly a mill
in the state which is MOI aitJc5ta by the
moth, ana nat y efforts to eradicate it
have been CW 5cssful. The moth is
continual riag strands Of silk in
great qu.tL.-tICo, which not only GET
into the -four, but clog the machinery
so badly that the mills are obliged TO
shut down temporarily.
Professor Johnson, who has made
careful study of the subject, says he has
discovered that the moth prOpagates
more rapidly in this climate than in
Canada, the eastern states or other
colder countries where it has appeared,
He expects that the disastrous effects Of
this moth will be very apparent in
nearly all the mills of the state before
the end of another year.
