LINCOLN (Neb.), Dec. ga bad
railroad wreck, resulting in the instant
death of one man and the injury of
others, occurred about noon to-day at
Seward as the result of a collision be-
tween Burlington passenger train No
53, West-bound, and a freight train.
The killed and injured are: ]. A. Gels
Ter, fireman on the passenger engine
caught between the tank and cab and
j. b. Jeffries, fireman on freight, leg
crushed and otherwise bruised, condi
tiOn serious.
The passengers injured by the coach
leaving the rails Were: NJ. M. George,
York, Neb., leg and shoulder bruised;
Mrs. Ida Ferguson, Lincoln, slightly
bruised and shaken up; Mrs. NJ. Mckee,
Marquette, Neb, shaken up and badly
scratched; r. e. McLuen, Guthrie Cen
ter, Ia, badly bruised.
The exact cause of the accident will
not be known until the Coroner's Jury
renders a verdict on the death Of Fire
man Geisler. 1t is known, however,
that the passenger crashed into the
freight, which was standing on a side
track. Both engines were badly dam
aged and passenger coaches and freight
cars derailed.
superintendent Bignel left with a
wrecking train from Lincoln, and will
make d personal investigation.
With the exception of Fireman JEFF
fries all the injured will recover.

BOLD ROBBERY.
Committed by Masked Highwaymen at
san Francisco.

Committed by Masked Highwaymen at
san Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26.-Three
masked robbers held up a Mission
street car last night and robbed Rich
ard Clark, an employe of the Pacific
Coast Jockey Club, of the receipts of
the day, aggregating $4,000. Clark and
two other men were shot, but it is be-
lieved that none of the wounds Will
prove fatal, although Clark will prob
ably lose one of his legs. The robbery
was carefully planned and deliberately
executed. The manner of attack and the
avenue of escape were we'll considered.
Three of the four robbers implicated
in the hold-up of Mission-street cleo
tric car last evening, wherein Reuben
Clark, ]. f. Bronner and Patrolman
Joseph were wounded and the former
relieved Of large amount of currency,
were captured tonight, and are now
lodged in the City Prison. They proved
to be Joseph Middlemas and Henry R.
Gardner, members of the Eureka, Hum
boldt County, Fire Department, and
Patrick Welch of this city.
Early this morning, while engaged in
inspecting the Olympic water works
pier, superintendent Willis observed a
strap protruding from the sand Upon
attempting to dislodge it, he discovered
beneath a pouch containing a consider
able amount of coin. The find was re-
ported to the police, and it was decided
to station officers in the vicinity in the
hope that the robbers would return at
low tide to recover their plunder. This
theory proved correct. The three high
waymen appeared on the scene early in
the evening, and as they approached
the spot where the booty had been
buried the officers closed in upon them,
capturing all three without difficulty.
They were brought into the city, and a
confession secured from one of the num-
Der, who disclosed the name Of the
fourth robber and the history of the
plot.
All the stolen currency has been re-
covered

ABSOLUTELY PURE

1870 miles southwest of Cape Flattery.
After towing the Strathnevis for five
days, and being within fifty miles OF
Cape Flattery, the Miowera struck an
unusually strong westerly gale, which
resulted in parting her hawser. She was
consequently unable to pick up the
Strathnevis again. The Miowera was
bound for Australia. She belongs to the
Canadian-Australian Steamship Line,
and is valued at S250,000.
Australian steamship off1-
cials incline to the belief that the Mio-
vera is safe. She is a staunch and sea-
worthy vessel, and has an abundant
supply of coal on board. The. Strathne-
Wis and Miowera parted company dur
ing a living gale, and officials claim
that the officers of the latter were jus
titled in supposing that the Strath-
nevis was beyond human aid, and con-
sequently put about for Honolulu.

FRUIT FIRM IN TROUBLE.
Though Of the Same Name, Not the
Company Doing Business Here.

Company Doing Business Here.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 26.-Porter
Brothers & Co., the well-known COM
mission and merchandise firm, will not
open their doors tomorrow. Tomorrow
morning a note will be sent to the cred
itors of the firm, calling for meeting
in order that an extension of time may
be obtained. This meeting will be held
on Saturday morning. No trouble is
anticipated in getting the desired eX
tension of time, as the firm declares it's
assets will be at least double it's liabili-
ties.
The liabilities, it is thought, will not
exceed $75, 1000. They may not be more
than $4,000. Some of the larger ac
counts are soon to become due, and to
meet them would cause too great a sac
rifice in the present congested state of
the dried fruit market. This and the
fact that the firm has been improving
fruit farms in Fresno and Santa Clara
are given as the causes of their suspen-
sion.
Porter Brothers & Co. is one Of the
best known commission and merchan-
dising houses in the city. 1t consists of
u. II. and A.W. Porter. They are not
connected in any way with Porter
Brothers, the green fruit shippers, the
members of the firm not being re-
lated
