SPREADING RAILS


Cause q Bad Wreck on the Louisville .
Nashville Road : One Passenger Killed
and Thirty Wounded.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Feb. 25.-Passen-
ger train No. bound for New Orleans,
on the Louisville & Nashville railroad,
was wrecked by being derailed two
miles below Greenville, Ala, at $50
Saturday morning. The train was GO
ing about fifty miles an hour when the
rails spread and the tender of the en-
gine jumped the track, and the combin-
alton mail, baggage and express car,
smoking car and two passenger cars
were thrown over the f1fteen-foot per-
pendicular embankment and plowed
into the mud, the scene of the accident
being in a swamp. The first Pullman
sleeper left the rails, while the other
sleeper and private car of the Chica-
go & Alton railroad, with officials on
board, remained on the track.
Engineer Campbell and his fireman
remained at their posts, the engine
breaking loose from the tender and es-
Gaping damage. The mail clerk, bag
gagemaster and expressman all made
miraculous escapes, receiving but slight
bruises.
G. B. Walsh, of Birmingham, Ala,
thought to have been barber, was
killed instantly. He was occupying q
front seat in the first passenger coach
when it crashed into the smoking car,
and was thrown forward against the
toilet room, breaking his neck.
There were more than 1926 passengers
aboard, and of that number at least
thirty were more or less injured, very
slight cuts and bruises being the ex-
tent OF damages done those whose
names are not given. The mail and
baggage cars, three coaches and two
Pullman sleepers were burned. One
sleeper and the Chicago &c Alton pri-
vate car escaped the fire, which origi-
mated from the stoves of the coaches.

VAN VERT, Feb 22. "A horrible muir
der occurred near here Wednesday. A
man by the name of Young, aged 65,
living with his wife, aged II, arose from

School Superintendents Decide to Hold the
Next Convention at JacIksonville--Prof
Drapers Report.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 22.-The knowledge
that the vote on the question of where
the next convention was to be held,
would be taken at the morning session
was the cause of the delegates coming
into the convention hall early at Thurs
day mornings session of the depart
ment of superintendence. Three cities
were candidates for the t 1Or: jack
sonville, indianapolis and 3troit. On
the first vote Jacksonville received 103
votes, indianapolis Ss and Detroit 10.
Detroit was then withdrawn according
to the educators custom. The second
ballot resulted us follows: Jacksonville
131, indianapolis 90. Hearty applause
greeted the decision.
The last portion of the report of the
committee of fifteen was next read by
President A. S. Draper, of the .Univer-
sity of Illinois, formerly Cleveland's
school superintendent. The subject
was "The Organization of City School
Systems"
Prof. Draper made sey eral definite
points in his report. One was that the
affairs of the school should not be
mixed up with partisan contests or
municipal business. Another that there
should be sharp distinction between
Legislative functions and executive
duties, The legislative functions
should, according to the report, be ex-
ercised by comparatively small board,
which should determine the policy of
the system, levy taxes and control eX-
penditures. 1t should make no APP
pointments. The board should be ere.
ated by appointment rather than elec-
tion. Administration should be divided
into department to manage business
interests and another to supervise in
struction. Each should be directed by
a single official.
The convention was concluded last
evening by election of officers, as fol
lows: President, Lewis III. Jones, of
Cleveland; first vice president, j. II.
Phillips, Birmingham; second vice pres
ident, Charles w. Cole, Albany; secre-
tary, R. q. Penfeld. Duluth.

OHIO STATE NEWS
Items of interest to Buckeyes at
Home and Abroad.
startling Fact, Revealed.

COLUMBUS, o., Feb. 23-The COM
mission appointed at the instance OF
Gov. Mckinley by the boards of trade
and chambers of commerce, of Cincin-
natl; Cleveland, Columbus and Toledo
to make an official investigation of the
destitution of miners in the Hooking
and Sunday Creek valleys, has discov-
cred some startling facts
In the localities so far visited the
commission has discovered that each
miner last year earned only from $75 to
$l2S largely because of the national
strike, and that by working regularly
they could have earned from So to S.
every day. BY reference to the ma
tionality of the miners it is learned
that in Jacksonville they are almost en-
tirely American and English, in Shaw
nee the majority are Welsh, in Buck
ingham they are largely German and in
Straitsville they are pretty evenly dis
tributed among the English, Welsh,
German and Irish.
1t was also stated that of the 10000 or
$4,000 miners in the two valleys, fully
one-third, representing with their fam
lilies nearly $1,000 persons, are in great
er or less distress. With reference to
future prospects all the miners declare
they are not encouraging. They are
almost unit in declaring that there
are at least so per cent too many min
ers in the two valleys for the amount
of work that can be supplied, and many
of them are making preparations to
locate on farms or seek other employ
ment.
The commission hope to get through
with the investigation by this evening
Mechanics Lien Law is Constitutional.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 21.-Judge Noble
handed down an important opinion
Wednesday, He decided that the me-
chanics' lien law, which protects the
workman against dishonest contract
ors, is constitutional. The Legislature
materially changed the law last win
ter. Originally it provided for a lien
for labor or material furnished by vir-
tue of a contract with the owner or his
authorized agent, upon the material
and machinery furnished and upon the
owners interest in the lot or land on
which the same may stand 1t was so
amended as to give like lien for labor
and material furnished by virtue OF a
contract with or at the instance of the
owner thereof, or his agent, trustee,
contractor or sub-contractor.
