Fatal Wreck on n Passenger Trafu ON

Two killed outright and many wounded

While passing through the town, which
Is somewhat obscure place eighty miles
west OF Fort Wayne, the first section of the
Fort Wayne train, known as mo. g." lump
ed the track suddenly
The train on passing the place had been
going at a good rate of speed and when the
engine left the track, plunging along the
road-bed. pioughing a great furrow in the
earth by reason of its velocity, the tender
and cars following behind dashed forward
and piled upon one another in an awful
mass Of wreckage.
Those who escaped injury were compelled
to witness the usual narrowing scenes at
tending railroad smash-up, but there were
scores Of hands ready and willing to aid in
removing the dead and dying from the
chaotic mass of timbers
Two dead and several others whose
wounds may result in death were the fruits
of their noble efforts.
AS quickly as possible medical aid and at
tention was furnished those not beyond
the ministrations of a physician, and
all sorts of inprovised comforts were ar
ranged for the wounded
Engineer Christy and Fireman Warren,
both of Fort Wayne, were among the killed.

FRAUDULENT SICK BENEFIrs.
What Appears to Be an Extensiv
Conspiracy In Philadelphin.

"hnt appears 10 Be an Extensive
Conspiracy In Philadelphia.
What appears to be an extensive con-
spiracy among certain Polish Hebrews in
Philadelphia to swindle fraternal beneficial
orders was brought to a climax last night
by the arrest of five officers prominent in
the affairs Of three local councils Of the
National Fraternal Union of Cincinnati.
Other sick benefit societies and a large
number Of people are said to be involved,
and many more arrests are looked for.
Those arrested were: Moses Parker, Sel,g
Lieberman and Samuel ]. Rlumberg, finan-
cial accountants of the three councils and
Drs. Lewis s. Rubinsohn and Abraham
Hahn, medical examiners. The arrests,
which were made on complaint Of Dan. A.
PheIps OF Cincinnati, supreme adjuster of
the union, are the result of over three
months OF patient work by Pinkerton de-
tectives and officers of the union
Early in the year three councils of the
order were established in Philadelphia, their
membership being made up entirely Of He

began to roll in. The supreme officers at
Cincinnati suspected fraud and began an
investigation. finally hiring a Pinkerton
man, who connected himself with one Of
the councils. and got himself admitted to
the conspiracy, sharing the profits thereof.
His evidence against the prisoners is Of the
most damaging character.
Sick benefit claims must first be an
proved by the medical examiner and finan-
ctal accountant of the local council to
which the applicant for relief belongs,
hence the connection Of the five men ar
rested with the conspiracy. Nearly 5000
has been fraudulently collected by the con-
spfrators from the National Fraternal Union
alone, and 1t Is almost certain that they
nave swind1ed other orders of the same
character,

A Reported Case of Telepathy.
from the Iondon Tablet


The Popolo Romano relates the following
authentic fact, without giving more than
the initial of the person to whom 1t &C.
CURED. distinguished young lawyer Of
literary reputation, who stated that he could
not give the most remote explanation OF It.
Some years since, on a hot summer after
noon. the Advocate A., together with his
wife and two children, left their house in
Via Gaeta at 6 o'clock precisely for an even
Ing walk. He was in good health and spirits,
but just as they crossed the street he was
suddenly seized with a shock through his
whole body, which caused all the blood to
leave his face, and obliged him to support
himself against the wall. His wife In alarm
assisted him to steady himself, anxiously
asking what was the matter. He recovered
himself speedily, and was able to continue
the walk only describing an unaccountable
perturbation and humming in his ears. The
evening breeze and exercise gradually Gained
and revived him, and he completely regained
his usual frame. They went to visit some
friends, and then rested at cafe, when
toward half-past IL o'clock a storm which
had been gathering began the first blasts Of
wind. and they hurried home. Scarcely ar
rived indoors the Advocate A hurried
to remove some flower pots from a balcony
over the street, taking a lamp with him.
The wind extinguished the light, so he had
to continue his operations In the dark, only
Illuminated now and then by the lightning
flashes. He was Just lifting the last flower
vase an ornamental one, given him by his
mother. when he was startled by seeing a
kind OF black veil waving upward close in
front of him, which, as 1t rose, assumed a.
human form. Very much disturbed, he I'M
medlatey related the strange appearance to
his wife, and the perturbation before exper-
fenced again overcame him, leaving him I'M
able to sleep all night. Early in the morn
ing came telegram from his brother at
Ferrara, stating that their mother had been
suddenly seized with cerebral syncope the
previous evening at o'clock. and had ex-
pired at midnight, just as the Avvocato A
had seen the black veil vanish into space"

NEED FOR COAST DEFENsEs.
Gen. Breckenridge Comments on Forts
Without Garris0ns.

Inspector General Breckenridge has made
a report to the Secretary of War in which
he retelIs with good effect the old story
Of the utter inadeQuacy OF our coast de-
lenses to prevent foreign invasion. THE
very careful inspection of ungarrisoned
posts between Baratoria bay, La, and the
Delaware river" he says. has brought
very plainly to view the defenseless con-
dition of our southern coast and the great
importance of immediate action If these
fortifcations are to be relied on to repel
attack Owing to the spread of some Of
the cities they were built to protect and
the increased range of modern artillery q
few Of the sites are no longer available, but
In large majority Of cases they are
now. and doubtless always will be. of vast
importance to the country. No intelligent
and experienced officer can look on our
southern defenses without feeling the deep
est solicitude for the safety of our entire
coast line. That there is no immediate
probability Of a foreign war will be granted,
but 1t must be admitted that such con-
dngency Is not impossible. and that should
IL happen within the next ten years We
must rely In the main for the protection
of our harbors on the forts and guns We
now have. no matter how inferior they
may be as compared with more recent in
ventions.
For various reasons the garrisons Of
tWcuty-ScVen OF lneSe IOEtS nave Deen WITH
drawn until there is not now, nor has there
been In most cases for more than twenty
years. single soldier to care for them.
ordnance sergeants, sometimes superannu-
ated and decrepid. alone excepted. AS q
result of this long abandonment. and the
changes which have meantime affected
methods OF attack and defense, the forts
and their ornaments have come to be re-
garded as obsolete. deserving and receiving
but little attention. until they now serve
the single purpose apparently of remind
Ing US of the high estate from which we
have fallen. and that We are not well pre-
pared for resistance against any bold and
aggressive government"
General Breckenridge will suggest to Sec
rotary Lamont the adoption of certain
neglect that have placed the southern coast
so absolutely at the mercy Of an enemy. He
desires that an estimate be made for clean
Ing and clearing up the forts and such re-
pairs as will prevent further deterioration.
He VIII also suggest that sufficient ex-
penditure be authorized to put all guns
and carriages that can be relied on in con-
nection with the operation Of torpedo lines
In serviceable condition. Younger and
more active men. he contends, should re-
place the particular ordnance sergeants on
duty at the forts inspected. and he asks
that this be done as soon as practicable
Furthermore. he will suggest that an effort
be made, where 1t can be done properly to
counterfeit the impression, which prevails
even In the army. that these forts are Junk
shops and their armament and stores OBJ
solete,and that instructions be issued which
Will enable or compel all ordnance SER
geants. when once the ornaments are put
In order, to keep them SO.
