Thirteen KILLED,
Frightful Railroad Wreck on
the Grand Trunk Near
Quebec.
THE ENGINEER WAS ASLEEP.
Second Section Collides With
the First Going at Full
Speed.

QUEBEC, July l0-A terrible acci.
dent occurred on the Grand Trunk
railway at Crags Road station, about
ii miles west of Lewis, at 3 a. M, the
result of which is that i3 persons were
killed and % injured, of whom may
die
A large pilgrimage from Sherbrooke,
Windsor Mills and Richmond had left
the latter town for the famous Catholic
shrine of st. Anne de Beaupre. The
train carrying the pilgrims was di-
vided into two sections, one running a
few minutes behind the other. The
first section reached Crags Road about 8
o'clock and stopped to take water. Due
precautions were taken and the sema-
phore thrown to mark danger against
the following train. Only the train.
men were astir. The Pullman in the
rear was wrapped in silence and the
sleepers were all
Unconscious OF the Terrible Fate
that was rushing upon them. Sud-
denly the second section, which passed
the semaphore at full speed, dashed
into the rear Pullman of the section.
The engine embedded itself in the
sleeper and the latter plunged forward
and partially telescoped the next car in
front. Every berth in the sleeper was
alled and many of the occupants were
killed as they slept. Others awoke to
their horrible surroundings manned,
bleeding and bruised, conscious of little
else but the agony that racked them.
1t was terrible scene. The cries and
means of wounded and dying pierced
the air ON all sides, whilo, as a canopy
that served as q veil to the tragedy,
the steam
From the Shattered Engine
rose in clouds that blinded all observa-
tion for the time being. The reason
why the second section did not heed
the danger signal will probably never
be known, as both the engineer and
fireman were killed. 1t is believed
that the engineer, Mcleod, had fallen
asleep at his post. No other explana-
tion seems possible. There had evi-
IDENTIFY been no attempt to stop the
rush of the oncoming train. The fol-
lowing is the list of killed: Charles
Bedart, mail clerk; Hector Mcleod,
engineer; Richard L. Perkins, fireman;
Miss Bedart, Rev. J. T. Mercier, Rev.
F. P. Dingan, Mr.. Cogan, Miss Valin,
Miss Phaneuf, Mrs. j. D. Caver, Miss

Plenty of Arms and Ammunition.
SAN FRANCISCO, July l1.-General
Ezeta and his followers are said to be
nearly ready for their attack upon Sal
vador. For some time there has been
lack of funds in the war chest of the
exile but it is reported that he has re-
ceived large sum of money from Gem
tral America and that in a short time
the balance of what is needed will be
supplied. Ezeta is said to be negotiat-
ing for sealing or whaling steamer
which will take on arms and ammuni.
tion which will be shipped there for
the purpose. 1t is also the plan of
Ezeta to enlist in his cause about rs
Americans upon whose bravery and
fighting qualities he may rely. His
equipment will consist of four rapid
guns, six gatling guns, 500 rifles, as
many revolvers and 800, 900 rounds of
ammunition.
A few days ago Ezeta sent procla-
nation to Salvador calling upon the
natives to rally to his support upon his
arrival.

Big Drop in Wheat.

CHICAGO, July 10.-The wheat mar
ket made another sensational break
during the day which eclipsed all its
former efforts of the season in that di-
rection. Compared with Mondays
closing prices it is now SO cents lower
for September delivery and S1a cents
lower than the price it opened at Mon
day morning. The failure of frosts to
materialize, the expectation of liberal
crops and the lack of export demand
caused heavy selling, resulting in the
big slump.

RAISED A BIG BREEZE.
Published Interview With Ambassador
Eustis Causes n Sensation.

Eustis Causes Sensation.
LONDON. July 10.-Mr. F. De Blowitz.
the famous correspondent of the Lon.
don Times, upon an alleged interview
with the United States ambassador to
France, Mr.. James B. Eustis, published
in The Figaro, said that such an inter,
view evidently constituted a new de,
parture in diplomacy. In reference to
the utterances imputed to Mr.. Eustis
regarding Canada, Mr.. De Blowitz said
it would be difficult to believe that the
ambassador represented friendly
nation.
Several Paris newspapers also com.
ment on the alleged interview.
The Estafette says that in it Mr..
Eustis admitted that the United States
supported Japan against France, Rus
sia and Germany; Canada against Eng
land, and Cuba against Spain. and that
the United States has ambitious com.
percial ideas respecting Madagascar.
"All these acts and plans" the Esta-
fette comments, "are contradictory of
the professions of the Monroe doctrine
and in complete forgetfulness of our
former fraternal relations, compels US
to anticipate that the future will be
darkened by disputes and misunder-
standings"
The Libre Parole also severely criti-
cizes Mr.. Eustis, accepting the Figaro
interview as genuine, says the Ameri.
can ambassador has committed breach
of the laws of hospitality.

GREENLAND'S SUMNER.
Professor HeiIprln Corrccts Some Popular
misconceptions About It.

Professor HeilDrln Corrccts Some Popular
misconceptions About 1t.
As with many of the foreign countries,
there Is wrong impression existing in
tho minds even of we'll bred persons
with reference to the nature of the pen-
lnsula of Greenland. 1t is supposed to be
cherries waste of ice and snow, and
indeed land Of dcsolation. On first ac-
quaintanco the country does not seem
calcu lated to inspire enthusiasm, but
tins feeling soon wears away and tho
returned traveller from Greenland is
smltten with "the arctic fever" the
principal symptom of which is long.
ing to return to these northern shores.
Professor Angelo Heilprin, in his inter
esting account of the Peary relief expe-
dltion conducted by him, thus speaks Of
Greenland:
"Once the foot has been set upon tho
mlrrored rocks the charms of this garden
spot one by one unfold themselves. The
little patches of green are aglow with
bright flowers, rich i'll the colors which
bounteous nature has provided. Tho
botanical eye readily distinguished
among these mountain pink, the dwarf
SONNittl pieces VI meath,
the crowfoot, chiclweod and poppy,
with their varying tints of red, white
and yellow. Gay butterflies fit through
the warm sunshine, casting their shad-
ows over forests of diminutiye birch
and willow.
"Hcre and there u stray beo huns in
search Of sweets among the pollen
grains, while, from afar, woven through
the music of gurgling rills and brooks,
come the melodious strains of thousands
OF mosquitoes, who ever checrfully lend
their aid to give voice to the landscape
Above this peaceful scene tower the dark
red cliffs OF basalt, which from Il height
of 1900 feet look down on "a sea of
Mediterranean loneliness, blue as the
waters OF Villafranca and calm as tho
surface of an interior lake Over its
bosom float hundreds of iccbergs, tho
output of the great Jacobshavn glacier,
90 miles to the eastward, scattered like
fiocks Of white sheep in pasture.
Such was the summer picture of the
region about Disco as it was found by
the writer in two successive seasons.
There was little of that Greenland look
about it which we habitually associate
with the region, nothing of those terrors
which to the average mind reflect the
qualities of the arctic world"
