The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1893-02-15

Monday night and yesterday morning
were times in which the Norfolk and
Western railroad experienced o series
of wrecks, one coming on after the
other. The recent general thaw has
put the road in dangerous condition,
and heavy trains feel their way along
from one end of the line to the other.
The mountainous sections traversed by
the railroad are exceedingly dangerous,
as numerous small landslides are re-
ported Dearly every day.
At Seven Mile Ford, nine miles east
of Glade Spring. passenger train No. 2
ran into huge pills of dirt and rock ,
that had slid off the mountai n onto the
track. The engine was turned upside
down in the mass of debris. Six cars
were tumbled indiscriminately from the
track, almost totally wrecking tho cars
The train arrived in Roanoke twelve
hours late. No one was killed, but
Engineer Smith, Fireman Marion and
Brakeman Markham received bruises
and cuts, though not seriously injured.
A small wreck occurred on the Poca-
hontas division at mile post 419. A
landslide had covered up the track, and
train No. 3 ploughed into 1t, overturn-
ing the engine and baggage car. The
train was delayed several hours. No
one received injuries in this wreck
Another wreck occurred on the Poca-
hontas division at Blue Stone juno ton,
caused by the condition of the track
No one was hurt, nor any great damage
done.
EARLY yesterday morning wreck &C.
Cured on the Lynchburg and Durham
division. Several cars were derailed
and the train delayed for several hours.
No one was injured in this wreck.
While no great damage was done in
any of the wrecks, still Monday night
was, perhaps, the most extraordinary in
the history of the Norfolk and Western
railroad

BRIsTOL, Tenn. Feb. IA South
Atlantic and Ohio train took a fearful
plunge down an embankmentl last night
The train was bound for Bristol and
was coming around Walkers mountain
The track, which had been undermined
by big sluce of water, gave way and
the engine and seven cars were hurled
down tho mountain hundred feet or
more.
The engineer, Billy Allen, was buried
under the engine for four hours. He
was SO badly injured that he was un.
able to be brought homo and this morn
ing he died.
Several parties were injured in
wreck on the Norfolk and Western
about the same time, though none were
killed.

A Great Project of Irrigation.

Los ANGELES, CAL, Feb. 14.-Plans
have been matured tor one of the great
est irrigation schemes ever undertaken
in the United States, the result of which
will be the reclamation of large
par lion of the Majave Desert. Repre-.
sentatiyes of Minnesota capitalists have
obtained from the Hesperia Land and
Water Company an option on the water
right and dam site at Victoria Narrows,
on 3 the Southern California railway,
about fifty miles north of San Bernar-
dino. Here, where high granite pre-.
cipices approach each other, great
dam will be built, ITO feet high and IS
to $50 feet long, blocking the current Of
the Mojave river and forming q great
lake, which. it is estimated, will irrigate
a quarter of million acres of govern
ment land open to settlers in the usual
way. The cost OF the enterprise is esti-
mated at 81, 100000.

Gresham Said to Have Accepted the Port
folio of State

tolio OF State.
LAKEWOOD, N. j., Feb. l4.-It is an.
nounced here that Mr.. Cleveland has
received letters of acceptance from
Judge Gresham, accepting the position
OF Secretary of State; from Wilson Bis
sell, OF New York, accepting the Post
master Generalship, and from Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, accepting the Secre-
taryship of Agriculture.
Hilary A. Herbert, chairman of the
naval committee of the House, Is mon
toned as probable Secretary of the
Navy, and there is talk of Congressman
w. L. Wilson, of West Virginia, for
Secretary of the Interior.
LAKEWOOD, N. j., Feb. 14.-Mr.
Cleveland, it is said, was very much
surprised that the information in regard
to the letters of acceptance from Judge
Gresham, Wilson S. Bissell and Hoke
Smith should have leaked from his cot
tage. He was pleased, however, that
the reporters got the informa ton
straight, and it was almost useless
irving to keep any information from
them. He refused to be interviewed by
the reporters and turned their queries
aside by saying that it was very
stormy day, in fact one of the worst he
had experienced in Lakewood. 1t is
not known which portfolio has been
assigned to Mr.. Bissell, but it appears
to be That OF Postmaster General. Some
think he would like to go into the At
torney Generals department, being we'll

Run on the ECONOMY Bank.

BEAVER FALLS, Pa, Feb. 14.-This
morning before the Economy Bank
opened the stone steps leading to the
building were crowded with people, all
with anxious faces, waiting to draw out
their money. The published statements
of Cashier Reeves regarding the solidity
of the concern only appeared to increase
the fears OF those who had money in
the bank. All the morning the entrance
to the bank has been damned. The
cashier, assistant cashier, teller and
clerks were kept busy settling accounts
AS on Saturday, the greater part of
those drawing out their accounts were
women and children. Despite the run
many of the larger depositors have no
fears. One merchant deposited over
$4,000 this morning, and others de-
posted large amounts. They say that
they have no fears and would deposit
all the money they have without the
least hesitation.

STILL TALKING TREATY TALK.
The Secretary and Commission
ers Preparing Their Papers.
Tho President Anxious That This Import
ant Negotiation be Accomplished BE-
fore His Retirement From Omce-A
Protocol Outlining the Terms of the
Treaty Being Prepared.

"AShiNulON, ceD. If.-1n ne Secre-
tary of State and Hawaiian commits.
sioners have commenced the prepare
ton of protocol outlining the terms of
the. treaty of annexation of the Ha-
waiian archipelago to tho United
States.
1t is the purpose of the President and
Secretary of State to have the terms OF
the protocol we'll advanced so as to get
the treaty to the Senate at as early
day as possible. The President is de-
sirous that this important negotiation
shall have been accomplished before
his retirement. He has discovered that
the sentiment of the people throughout
tho country is strongly in favor of an
nexing this group of islands to the
United States. The favorable DISPOSE
ton of the European powers, with the
exception Of Great Britain, adds to tho
wisdom and propriety of the prompt &C
ton being taken by this government.
In conference with the President the
Hawaiian commissioners were informed
that the disposition of the Executive of
this government was favorable to their
offer OF annexation authorized by the
provisional government Of Hawaii.
negotiations in detail 9th the Secre sary
of State.
AS soon as the treaty is completed
Secretary Foster will submit it to tho
President, and IL the instrument re-
ceives his full approval it will be imme-
diately transmitted to the Senate
Upon reaching that body it will be re-
ferred to the senate committee on for.
eign relations. 1t is understood that
some of the members Of that committee
who have given the subject much study
since the proffer Of annexation, have
outlined plan relating to the proposed
government Of the people.
1t can BIO stated authoritatively that
there is no disposition on the part of
the President or the foreign relations
committee to accord tho people Of
Hawaii at present the right of suffrage
beyond that perm tilted for local pur-
poses, as in the case of any Of the
territories Of the United States. The
President as in all such jurisdictions
OF the United States, appoints tho gov.
ernor, judges and all Federal officers
who exercise entire supervision as rep
resentatives of the Government at
Washington.
This is regarded as the most satisfac-
tory method OF beginning the admins.
trative jurisdiction of those islands, the
population of which is made up of
Chinese, Japanese, Polynesians and
other pagan races, the American being
the dominant people among the foreign
interests in commercial, industrial and
business affairs.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Not little
opposition to the Hawaiian annexation
is developing on the Pacific coast on &C.
count OF the Chinese element in the
Islands. There is grave doubt whether,
If Hawaii comes to us by legislative
act, there will be any constitutional
way Of preventing free going and com
ing in any part of the United States by
the Chinese already residents IN an
neXed territory

a Lake Keportod to be plsappear,ng.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Feb. l4.-News
has been received here that Mountain
lake, large body OF water in Craig
county, Va, near West Virginia boun-
dairy line. is disappearing. 1t is said
water which usually overhows the basin
at this time of the year is now twenty
feet below tina outlet and is still sink
ing. The boats which are used in the
summer for the guests are standing
high and dry on the shores. A small
stream near by. which empties into Doe
creek, is unusually large at present,
and 1T is thought to be carrying off the
water from the lake by some hidden
outlet. Unless some measures are
found to stop it, it is said the lake will
be emptied entirely in short time.
This lake was originally formed by u
large spring, the outlet of which was
damned up by cattle, and it is thought
that this has been opened again, allow

HoKE SMITH Is A CERTAINTY.
The Georgia Editor Slated for tho Interior
Department..

New York, Feb. 14.-The work of
Cabinet making now goes on with
little more rapidity than was possible
week or two ago. Then everything de-
pended upon the choice of Secretary of
State, and Judge Gresham's acceptance
settled not only the incumbent of that
official, but who should be chosen for
one or two others.
For instance, IL Judge Gresham had
declined, the President would then
have been compelled to come to New
York in order to secure Secretary of
State. This would have rendered i'm
possible the appointment of Mr.. Bissell
as Postmaster General, something that
has been in mind almost for certainty,
II the other conditions could be properly
managed. The same thing is true in
the matter of the selection OF a mem Der
from the South. 1t has all along been
conceded that two members would be
taken from that section, MIR. Carlisle
being one.
report was sent out yesterday that
Mr.. Smith, Of Georgia, had been slated
for the Department of Agriculture. This
is not at all the case. His friends orig.
inally put forward his name for Attor-
ney General, but the place in which he
is most likely to find his work in the
next few years is the Interior Depart
ment. He has been ecommended so
universally by leading men of many
States that it is safe to say that almost
no other Southern name has been seri-
ously considered in connection with q
Cabinet appointment.
Tho late Justice Lamar, in whose
judgment the President elect had great
confidence, took occasion very soon
after the election to give the most fiat
tering opinion of Mr.. Smiths abilities
and fitness for an important place, and
in doing SO he said to his friends, as
we'll as to the Presid ent elect, that he
beloved no would be an ideal incum-
bent OF the Office of Secretary of the
Interior, which he himself had once
held. Ono of the last letters written
by the late justice was one making a
plea for Mr.. Smiths recognition.
So there is very little doubt of Mr..
Smiths appointment within few days,
unless some unexpected declinations
come from other direc lions. Even these
are not likely to change the result.
