Many People Injured on a New Jersey
Electric Railway.
ORANGE, N. j., Aug. 27.-An acci-
dent occurred on the electric line of the
suburban traction company near Eagle
Rock, a well known pleasure resort, by
which a number of persons were In
jured. Eagle Rock is at the top of Or
ange mountain. It is approached by a
road two miles long with a; continuous
grade. In some parts the grade is al
most go feet to the mile. About 4:50
p. m. car No. s, filled to the doors
with men and women, many of the
former hanging to the platforms, was
going down the grade, when the
motorman found that the brake would
not work. The Car rapidly gained
momentum and was soon dashing along
at very rapid rate of speed. The pas.
sengers were not long in finding out
that something was wrong, and the
women and children began to scream.
Before anyone had time to jump the
front wheels of the forward truck
struck bend in the road. The car was
going too fast for the wheels to follow
the tracks and it leaped from the rails,
turning completely over. The broken
glass of the windows and doors caused
many injuries.

VILLAGES SWEPT away.

Disastrous Flood in India Caused by the
Breakeng of a Dam.
S1MLA, Aug. 27.-Gohna lake, which
for some time past has threatened to
break its bounds and sweep down the
valley, at the head of which it lies, has
broken the dam which controlled the
waters. Thousands of tons of water
poured through the valley like cata-
ract, sweeping everything before it.
Huge boulders were swept along like
pebbles, trees were uprooted and car
ried on the breast Of the food and vii
lagos along the valley were swept out
of existence an instant after the roar
ing torrent of whitened water struck
them. The accident was anticipated
and the government took steps to pre-
vent any loss of life when the break
came. Elaborate railway and tele-
graph arrangements were made, and
when it became known that the dam
would 60 out the people nearest the
point of danger were carried by the
railways to places Of safety.

SPECIAL OFFICERS SHOT,

Two More Policemen Victims of the Flee
ing Illinois Bandits.
CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-The Northwest
ern railroad officials received word at II
o'clock a. m. that the fleeing bandits
near Mayfair had shot and killed two
special policemen who attempted to
stop their flight. The information re-
ceived by the railroad officials indicate
that the desperadoes after their early
holdup boarded an inbound train
at Deerfeld, Ills. Holding up the
conductor they robbed him of all the
money he had and then pulling the
bell rope jumped from the train near
Mayfair, starting for the woods. They
were chased by two special policemen,
PUNK and Yunt, and opening fire both
officers fell mortally wounded. The
robbers then continued their fight, and
after an exciting time reached, tbs
woods in safety. They were finally
surrounded by officers, and, after being
riddled with bullets and probably fa-
tally wounded, were taken prisoners
and landed in Jail.

Homes Being Destroyed.
HARR1sv1LLE, Mich, Aug. 27.-Heavy
forest fires are raging through Altoona
county, doing great damage to lumber
mills and standing pine, destroying
crops Of all kinds and burning the
homes of many settlers. The fires were

hemlock bark, 100, feet of lumber,
1900 cedar ties, and large number OF
railroad fiat cars were burned. Trains

son James were seriously burned while
lighting the flames. Other parts of the
county are sending in reports of heavy
damage to crops and timber. There
has been no rain in six weeks. Every
thing is as dry as tinder, and stiff
wind would set the whole country

ABOLISH L0RPs9;
Hyde Park the Scene Of a
Demonstration Against the
"Heriditary Body"
SEVENTY THOUSAND PRESENT.
Speeches Made and ReSolu-
tiOns Adopted by Assem-
bled Multitude.

LONDON, Aug. s7.-Hyde Park Sun
day was the scene of a demonstration
by the National League for the Aboli-
tion OF the House of Lords. Those who
took an active part in the proceedings
assembled on the Thames embankment
and then marched in procession to the
park, where II platforms had been
erected. It is estimated that 10000
persons were in the park, but the num-
Der was largely made up of curious on
lockers who took no part whatever in
the proceedings. A joint resolution
was adopted at all the platforms declar-
ing that as the government was unable
to give any definite pledge as to it's &C.
tion regarding the house Of lords, it be
demanded that the "useless hereditary
chamber be abolished. The resolutions
also called upon the electors to only sup
port candidates for parliament who
would pledge themselves to vote for the
abolition of the house of lords.
The Conservative papers claim that
there were only a few thousand bona
tdes&demonstrators at the Hyde Park
meeting. The whole affair was tiasco.
1t is certain that no great enthusiasm
prevailed and the addresses of the
speakers were received with only mod
crate applause. John Burns, Henry
Labouchere and other prominent
agitators were present. All the speak
ers with the exception of Messrs. Tan
Il Dr.:

The Chronicle says that if the demo12-
stration was smaller than previous his
toric gatherings in Hyde Park, it was
at least genuine, sincere and impressive.

BOGUS STATE BOILER INSPECTORS
Arrested After S:vindling South Dakota
People of 3,OOO.

Arrested After S:vindling South Dakota
People of $4,000.
BROWNS VALLEY, MIMI, Aug. a.
Two men, giving the names Of J. W.
Corey, alias John Hines, and William
Graham, were arrested in Harmon
township, charged by Charles Urich
with obtaining money under false pre-
lenses. Corey pretended to be the state
boiler inspector of South Dakota and
Graham passed as his deputy. It hap
pens that that state does not require
the inspection of boilers, but these
swindlers have examined about 500
boilers and pocketed socalled fees
amounting to about $4,000. Their
mode Of operation was to inspect the
boilers and give engineers licenses to
run threshing engines, charging in
most cases SIS each, but where there
was an opportunity they would accept
$50 to SIS as bribe to keep still if the
engine was little risky.

Strange Discovery Made in the

A CASE OF JEKYLL AND HYDE.
The Leader Of the Gang Iden.
titled as a Local InSur-
anCe Inspector.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-The man giving
his name as German, who participated
in the Deertield holdup and subsequent
stirring events late Friday night and
Saturday morning, and Who was iden-
titled as Billy Williams, a well known
character on the Pacific coast, has again
been identified by responsible parties as
81. f. Griswold, a wel-to-do local in.
spector of the Manchester Assurance
company. Griswold's father is said to
be travelling inspector of the Home
Fire Insurance Company of New York
and resides in that city. The people
making the Identification are officials of
the Manchester Assurance company and
they maintain they are not mistaken.
1t appears to be
A Case of DR.. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde.
Griswold had no need to steal or to
shoot his fellow men, but he did it ap-
parently because he loved the mystery
and the excitement of such a life.
Crime has apparently become pastime
with him and he is supposed to have
found all apt pupil in Lake, poor, un-
employed laborer. During the day
time Griswold filled the important po-
sition Of fire risk inspector, which he
used as cloak for his marauding ex-
cursions during the night. About five
years ago Griswold married a country
girl and she became Mrs. Gordon, not
Griswold. Since then they have lived
in various parts of Chicago, their last
residence being 13 Curtis street. Sun
day the ti1nid, frightened wife
Called at the Police Station
and gave her name as Gordon, saying
she never knew her husband by any
other name. It is believed that the
police department., with the help of the
railroad companies, are running to
earth in this dual arrest list Of train
depredators, OF which Griswold is the
center. <
The story Of Griswold's life, so far as
known, is il unique .sya Born salmost422S
years ago, his father tried TO give him a
fair education, but the boys instincts
were wild and lawless. He eventually
disappeared from home, and was next
heard Of in the West as cowboy and
ranchman. After several years of ad-
venturous life in California, Oregon
and Idaho, he came to Illinois and Sc
cured employment as a brakeman at
Rock Island. While there he married,
and the influence of his wife
Caused Him to Lead Quicter Life.
His father, noting the improvement in
his behavior, used his influence to Sc
cure the son a position with the local
office of the Manchester Assurance COM
pany. Young Griswold grew proficient
in his new position and soon drew
handsome salary. 1t appears, however,
that the reform alton was not complete,
but just when Griswold began bis
double career while i'll the employ of
the Assurance comrany is not known.
Further disclo, ures a1e expe cte(} at the
inquest over the remains OF Detective
Owens, which has bSen postponed fer a
week to permit the police to make full
investigation Of Griswold's and Lakes
careers
