FIRE FOLLOWS A COLLISION.
Green Brakemen Cause a Bad Wreck
at Whitehaven.

Whitehaven, Pa, Dec. 2.-This morn
ing two freight trains collided on the
Lehigh Valley railroad in the heart of
town. Fire followed, burning the cars,
and it is thought that at least three men
were burned to death. The flames com
municated to the Ruhnl1e hotel and one
of the worst fires which has visited here
in many years was started A train
came down the mountain at good speed
When the level was reached lust above
town, it seems that the engineer put on a
full head of steam, and the green trainmen
failed to release the brakes, with the
IT suit that the train parted in three
places. The engineer sped away with a
portion of the train, leaving the other
cars behind. A freight train dashed into
the stationary train and flames burst
from the wreck. The flames spread to
the Ruhnke hotel near by, and from there
the fire spread to livery stable. For a
time it looked as though the town was
doomed but change in the wind gave
the fremen an advantage and the fire was
cotton under control.
STRIKERS BLAMED FOR THE WRECK.
Philadelphia, Pa, Dec 2.-That the
Lchigh Valley strike has assumed seri-
Gus aspect is shown by the statement is
sued here tonight by General
Manager voorhees,, in which he
charges the strikers with having
caused the disastrous White Haven
wreck this morning The statement
says: THE accident at White Haven was
caused by strikers pulling pins on a
freight train that stopped in front of the
station. The engineer made several at
tempts to start the train, and each time
found it broken in two in fresh places
There was so much detention resulting
from this that before the train got away
the following train ran into the rear and
caused the COLLISION
MORE DEMORALIzED THAN EVER
Easton Pa, Dec. 2.-The Lehigh Val
ley Railroad Company has been more de-
moralized to-day than at any time since
the strike began. This was owing to the
wrecks, large and small, at different
points blocking the system and causing
trains to be stalled on all sides. The
crews complain of the hardships they en-
dure because of cold weather and their
difficulty in obtaining food. There have
been more desertions by new men in the
last twenty-four hours than on any pre-
viOus day since the strike began. The
strikers are fully conviced that they will
eventually succeed.
The wreck his morning at White
Haven will cost the company $50, 600, and
if it is compelled to pay for the property
destroyed by fire in the town, caused by
the wreck the loss will foot up to fully
900. The accident was clearly the
fault of the new men.

An Eik Round Up.

During a severe mountain storm In
Colorado a band of elk, numbering
more than two hundred, were driven
down from the hills. and, In attempt-
ing to gain the sheltered valley, were
caught in the deep, crusted snow,
where they foundered around, power
less to advance or retreat Word OF the
event was soon passed, and the neigh
boring ranchmen focked to the spot,
and when enough game had been Sc
cured to supply their domestic wants. .
load of hay was taken to the half
starved survivors Of the band. which
they ate ravenously. The idea was to
preserve them until needed A week
later the band got down in the valley
somehow and began attacking the hay
stacks The ranchmen were again
called out. and, having decided that ia
drive them of would mean starvation
for the entire band. the animals were
rounded up by the firing Of guns and
driven into Jay Sea park, where two
companies of stockmen own hay, which
they generously gave for the use OF the
animals and the future benefit of sports
men. The elk show remarkable de
gree of tameness. and conduct them
selves much in the same manner a
range cattle would do Golden Days.

infusion of old world routine, unintelli-

An instance OF just the reverse OF this
