but Whalen staid with the engine until
within three car lengths of the other
train. when he went out through the cab
window, as he hadn't time to reach the
gangway.
The only possible explanation Whalen
has for the failure of the air TO work is
that while lying at Ypsilanti some mis-
creant may have turned the shut-oH cock
between the tender and cars.
This wreck is the first one of conse-
quence on the Michigan Central since
october 10, 1879, when the west-bound
Pacific Express crashed into switch en-
gine and several freight cars about mile
east Of to-day's happening, killing eigh-
teen people and injuring thirty-five.
James a. Hyde of New York City, who
was standing near the wrecked train on
the platform as the other train crashed
into it, says the sight was the most
awful he ever witnessed. He saw Engi-
neer Whalen just before he jumped. and
adds that he never saw such an express
sion OF agony on mans face.
All the passengers, both those who es-
capped and those who were in the eating
room of the station at the time, had in
teresting stories to tell of their expert
ences. The tale OF 7. n. Beardslee of
East Canton, Pa, was a particularly sad
one. He escaped injury himself, but his
wife was killed and his daughter so Sc
verely hurt that she cannot recover. II
had brought some coffee to my wife and
daughter few minutes BEFORE" said he,
"and had gone to the smoker, near the
head of the train, TO have a cigar.
had scarcely got seated when the awful
crash came. When l rushed back
found the car in which my folks had
been seated in the midst of the wreck.
The first of the injured l discovered was
my daughter. A few feet from her
found my wife, dead. She had been
struck on the head and forced through
the front of the carr
One of the CHASTITY phases of the acci-
dent was the decapitation of Mrs. D. 4.
Gibbs. She was accompanied by her
husband, who was out on the platform at
the time of the collision. She was not
identified until tonight. Her husband
was one of the active searchers in the
wreck, but did not recognize her remains
when taken out. He made trip through
the different undertaking establishments
tonight, and was Mortified to find his
wife's body headless.
There is an ordinance in Jackson pro-
hibiting the running of trains faster than
six miles an hour inside the city limits,
and ii is stated tonight that had this been
observed the wreck could not have hap
pened, but the train, according to COM
petent witnesses, was running at least
twenty and probably thirty miles an
hour just before it reached the station.

Household Disinfaction.

One of the commonest household disin-
fectants is probably that sold under the
name of crude carbolic acid, which con-
sists of q mixture of pure carbolic and
cresylic acids, and is of reddish brown
color. Its strong, tar-like odor renders il
a not disagreeable deodorant, but its solu-
Dility in ordinary water, which is in in
verse ratio to the amount of cresylic acid
present, is, in sense, a considerable
drawback: it mixes, however, much more
freely with hot water, and for all practi-
cal purposes the solution thus produced
is sufficiently useful. Patients in some
cases object to the smell, and in these in
stances some other disinfectant is, of
course, to be resorted to, but this is not
the fact with the majority, while its mex
pensiveness renders it acceptable in pub
lie institutions, offices, railway stations
and dwellings. where economy is an OBJ
ject. A refined preparation of the arti-
Gle, known as crystalline carbolic acid. is
more expensive, but of much more easy
application; it mixes readily with warm
water, so that a saturated solution is
readily made.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The third of the
races for the American cup between the
Vigilant and Valkyrie was sailed to-day
and was won by the former.
Fortunately, it was good Valkyrie
weather. There was gale of nearly
thirty miles per hour from the east, with
a good bit of sea on, so that the racers got
good wetting as they plowed through
old ocean, but there was haze over the
water, making observation somewhat
difficult
When the time for the start came the
Valkyrie was a considerable distance
from the line, and, though the gun was
fired, the start was delayed to allow her
to come up. Consequently, the start did
not take place until after noon.
The Vigilant was in the better position
and got over the line about one minute
ahead of the Englishman, laying her
course on a dead beat to windward to the
east. Both boats were on the port tack at
the start. The breeze was stiff and the
sea choppy.
Three minutes after the start the Vlgi-
liant tackled across the Valkyrie's bow
and one minute later, at l2:14, tackled
again toward shore.
The Valkyrie at once followed suit,
both sending spray over their decks, but
the VallIyrie did not seem to be as wet as
the American. The Vigilant was holding
the lead.
AT 1925 the Valkyrie gained the lead.
The wind at that time was thirty miles
per hour from the southeast, and fresh
ening every minute.
At l:35 the Valkytie, fully 200 yards to
the windward, was outpointing the VigA
liant, and was doing better work in every
way. The Valkyrie continued to lead,
and at l:40 was 200 yards ahead of the
Vigilaht.
At l:49 the yachts had covered twelve
miles of the distance. The VigiIant was
holding better in the wind and began to
close up the gap.
The Valkyrie rounded the stake-boat
at 2:39. The Vigilant turned three min
utes and twenty seconds later. The
wind was increasing and the boats were
coming home at q tremendous speed.
From this on it was a magnificent race.
The Vigilant began To creep on the Val
kyrie, and when about seven miles from
the finish passed her and was never
again headed, crossing the wire at
3:52:44, the Vallxyrie at 3:55:30.
The Vigilant's elapsed time is 3 hours
25 minutes AZ seconds. The Valkyrie's
elapsed time is hours 26 minutes and 81
secynds.
Taking into consideration the time al
lowed and the difference in crossing the
line, it appears the Vigilant won by to
10 seconds.

STORMS JOIN ISSUE.
Wires Frustrated by Small Cyclone

Wires Frustrated by a Small Cyclone
in the East and south.
WAsHIN NGTON, Oct. 13.-The West India
cyclone and a storm from the Northwest
joined issueslthis morning East and West,
and since then telegraphic communica-
ton has been practically at standstill.
After sweeping over the Florida penin-
sula yesterday, the cyclone made its way
North through Georgia. North Carolina
and Virginia, and met the storm from the
West somewhere in Pennsylvania or
Ohio, where both diffused over a wide
area, playing havoc with all means of
wire communication. An attempt was
made to work the Associated Press cir
cults by dividing them into small sections
and relaying, but it was even then found
almost impossible to carry the important
news of the day.
AT O'Clock the Western Uuion Com
pany reported all their wires between
Washington and Harrisburg and New
York down, and communication between
Pittsburg and New York routes almost
useless. At the Postal telegraph office
the same situation obtained, their Wash
ington and Chicago wires being SO slow
as to be of no value whatever. At the
present writing there is one Associated
Press wire to New York via Buffalo, and
u.
started south to reach Memphis from
Chattanooga, and thence north and south
to New Orleans. The copper circuits of
the Long Distance Telephone Company
are completely prostrated east of Pitts
burg.
THE STORM IN THE SOUTH.
ATLANTA (Ga.), Oct. 13.-The wires are
all down beyond Jacksonville Fla. The
greatest force of the storm was felt on the
east Gulf coast. Charleston is two feet
under water from Butler street. The
damage to the Charleston water front can
not be estimated yet. 1t was covered
with cotton. Nothing has been heard
from the islands on the Carolina coast.
All wires into Charleston are down. The
storm did little damage in Savannah. The
lower part of the city is covered with
water. Nothing has been heard from the
Tybee Islands since midnight, when the
wind was blowing sixty miles an hour.
The indications are that the storm spent
its greatest fury on the ocean. Anxiety
is felt for the steamship City of Augusta.
due tonight. 1t is probable she encoun-
tered the storm just off Hunting Island.
STORM IN NEW YORK.
NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The cyclone which
has been expected week or more reached
here with vengeance this evening. 1t
began soon after the yacht race was fin
ished, and by dark the wind was blow
ing gale, and heavy rain falling. At
o'clock the wind was blowing thirty
eight miles, at $50, forty-two, at 10, forty
eight miles, and at 11:20, fifty miles. The
Western Union Telegraph Company had
no communication with the West from
early in the evening until late hour, and
then the facilities were limited. COM
munication with Washington was almost
in as bad shape. The storm resembled a
cyclone, and toward midnight rainfall
came that flooded the streets and left
large pools of water.

struck on his head. his neck being
broken. Preparations were being made
to hang the man and pull the bones into
place, but death came too soon.

SANTA Rosa, Oct. 13.-Quite a sensa-
ton has been caused here by the discov-
cry in Weiner's auction-house of twelve
suits of clothes and six pairs of trousers
which were stolen from NJ. Princes
clothing store six weeks ago. The goods
were identified by Frank Leppo. a former
clerk of Mr.. Prince. Weiner said he
purchased the goods from Levy at auction
in San Francisco.
Sheriff Allen and Prince went to San
Francisco yesterday to investigate. Levy
admitted, after much talking, that he had
sold the goods to Weiner, but asked for
two days time in which to produce his
own bills. That was denied him. He
then asked for one day, and finally for
two hours. The Sheriff gave him an
hour. at the end of which time he showed
bills claiming he had bought the clothing
from a pawnbroker four weeks ago, two
weeks later than the robbery committed
here.
The matter was placed in Chief Crow
ley's hands.
The officers here seem to think the
chances are good for gaining an authentic
clew to the whole series of store robberies
committed here during the last three
months.

ceivers.
OMAHA, Oct. 13.-S. II. H. Clark has
Just been appointed receiver of the Union
Pacific road. Controller Mink has also
been appointed one of the receivers. The
third will be named later.
President Clark, in discussing the stu
alton this afternoon, said: THE appli-
cation for receivership was not unex-
pected, as a careful student of railroad
operations in the past few months must
necessarily conclude, after a review of
the startling decrease in gross and net
earnings which the Western roads have
suffered. With the possibility of de-
fault in payment of interest staring us In
the face, the only thing to be done to keep
the property intact was to file bill of
complaint asking for receivers, and ask
the court to intervene. The property
win be managed for the best interests of
all concerned"
Speaking for General Manager Dickin-
son, the General Solicitor said: "The un-
expected and surprising falling off of
business on the system. the stagnation
and depression throughout the Missouri
territory, convinced all parties: inter-
ested In the preservation and integrity of
the property, that it would be impossible
to meet the interest ana other fixed
charges soon coming due, and thereby
the system would be subject to different
actions in different Jurisdictions, which
might and probably would result in a
depreciation of the property. The court,
determining the personnel of the re-
ceivership, selected Clark and Mink on
account of their well-known familiarity
with the property, their peculiar fitness
for the position and the confidence of the
stockholders and creditors, as well as the
general railway public, in them as man
aging officials.
1.-The court further insisted that the i'm
portant interest of the Government in the
property should be represented. and Sc
lected therefore as third receiver E. Ellery
Anderson, whom Cleveland recently ap-
pointed Government Director. Most of
the preliminary operations are conducted
in the East, and the endeavor has been to
complete proceedings in such a manner
that the first public information may
come after the receivers are in possession.
This will protect the stock and securities
of the company against any depreciation
which might follow the announcement
that papers were being prepared or an
application would be made"
