NEWS FROM THE BATTLE CREEK WRECK

RATTLE CREEK, MICH, October e.
Late last night two more bodies, burned
in the Grand Trunk wreck were identi-
fed. The remains are those OF Mr..
and Mrs. Charles SAKE, OF New York
City. They were identified by broth
er from that city. Three more bodies
were identified this morning. The fol-
lowing is the list: Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver
Doland, of TilsonburR. Ont; j. J.
Brown, of Strathroy, Ont. The coro-
ner's inquest on the awful railroad hor-
ror was held this morning.
Tmo more bodies were recognized
this afternoon as those OF Marcus Reis,
OF Kansas City, Mo-, and j. NJ. Sloss, OF
Chicago. There are eight bodies left In
the morgue. A large numbe OF people
are in the city looking for friends who
are supposed to be lost, but as the re-
naming bodies are so badly burned
Identification is impossible. Nothing
can be found to identify the body OF
Rev. f. r. Clarke, OF Brantford. Ont,
supposed to be among the dead.
Prosecutor Clark is the busiest man
in Battle Creek this morning. DE
means to leave no stone unturned In
sitting the horrible affair to the bottom.
There is nothing connected with the
entire tragedy that / shall not endeavor
to bring out at the inquest. Neither
will the higher railway officials be left
out OF the examination. There are
great many features Of the affair which
will bear investigation. | can't under
stand why q high building should
have been placed inside the curve
where the accident occurred etfectually
shutting of all view in each direction.
Then we have an ordinance which pro-
hibits the running of trains within the
city limits at a speed greater than ten
miles per hour. l thiDk the speed made
by the east-bound train must have been
great from the time it left the depot,
in order to strike with such horrible
force. These conflicting stories OF the
engineer and Conductor Scott must also
be Strengthened ort somehow, IL Is a
matter In which the entire country Is
interested. and there must be no hesi-
fancy In getting at the truth"
1t was finally decided by Prosecutor
Clark, before taking up the inquest, 10
adjourn the examination OF Engineer
Wooley and Conductor Scott on the
criminal charges until November l.
At II O'Clock the jury put 10 an ap-
pearanee and the inquest began.
Train dispatcher Seth Cornell was
the first examined. His testimony Is TO
the effect that he gave Conductor Scott
orders to run TO the double track at
Nicholas and wait for No. 9. Scott
signed the order and Wooley read them.
Gilbert W. CranshaW, the engineer OF
No. Q. was the second witness examined.
He testified that when he was within
mile Of the scene Of the accident he ap-
piled his brakes and was coming TO
stop at the time when the trains came
together. He said he could only see
FIVE lengths ahead OF his engine but he
did not have control OF his train so that
he could stop IL within $50 feet.

ANOTHER WRITER'S VIEW OF THg DAY.

Many and startling as have been the
changes which have taken place ia the
situation with reference 90 the repeal
bin since shat measure was introduced
rn the Senate. there has never been be-
fore a day which has witnessed SO many
as has the one which closed With Seua-
tor Faul6ner's motion for recess at 5
O'Clock this afternoon.
The day started TO with the Az
nuuucemeut that the compromise was
"oT." Many were inclined % doubt
the announcement tDis morning that
the administratiOn bad set its seal OF
dissDDroval upon the Democratic con-
promise, but very little inquiry was
necessary 20 satisfy them OF the cor
rectness OF this statement
Then came the talk on ihe part Of
soue Senator OF adjo nment as the
best remedy for the sit-ation, and that
was soon met with the assertion That
cloture would be the proper thing on
she programme.
Speedily were these announcements
followed with the rumOr tnat The silver
men were willing TO surrender uncon-
dluonaliy and allow the repeal bill 70
be passed without opposition.
Lastly came the definite announce
ments, made almost simultaneously,
that there would be no effort made TO-
morrow at cloture, and thai the silver
men had reOrganiZed their forces and
we're prepared 20 continue the light in
definitely
The most interesting development Of
the day was on the silver side. Whether
given out in earnest, or for, purpose,
some o. she silver Senators announced
when they heard that the CO upromise
tin would not be presented that they
WoalG make no more fact los opposi-
tioa, bat would give way soon as
their prepared speeches wers concluded
and lst the repeal biil pass.

WASHINGTON, October 25.-The ses-

Frequent conference constituted the
noticeable feature On the Democratic

Vice President Stevenson took seat on
that side and engaged In what was ob-

attention was paid TO either.

Tho Bankruptcy Bin.

WASHINGTON, October 23.-The de-
bate Oh the bankruptcy bill began TO-
day in the House. There is great deal
OF determined opposition to>ths measure
led by some Of the ablest lawyers in the
House, like Culbertson, Of Texas, Stone,
OF Pennsylvanis, and Boatner, of Louisi-
ana. 1t is directed generally against
the policy Of national bankruptcy law,
in view of past experience with such
laws, and particularly at the involuntary
clause, for, at this time, when so many
business firms in close straits, might
under its operations, be forced 30 the

In the House to-day there were several

IS believed now that Stones story re-
garding the murder of the Wrattan

himself is a lie from beginning 10 end,
but he undoubtedly is one Of the prin-
cipals in the crime and made his con-
fession In order 10 pave the way toward

guilt apparent, but that he was covered
with blood while taking an active
hand IN the butchery. Oscar Brown,

leased from the State prison as Stones
