nRIGGS c4sE hGAIN.
It win Come Up Before the General Assem-.
 bly Next Week.

| bly, Next Week.
 Pfttsburg, May 5,-The one hundred and seventh general assembly of the States of America will convene in the | Third Presbyterian church on May 16. Unusual preparations are being made for this event for the reason that this assembly makes the twenty-fifth anni- versary of the reunion of the old school and new school churches.
 The general assembly's deliberations will continue through three weeks. The Briggs case Is one of the subjects to be passed upon. The relationship of the theological seminaries to the gen. eral assembly and the future attitude of the Presbyterian church toward the graduates of the Union Theological seminary will also be considered.
 The first business of importance will be the election of a moderator. Division between the conservatives and the liberals will appear at this time This year the proportion of liberals is greater than it has been for years. Their candidates will be Dr. Beeeher of Auburn, N. r., or in lieu of him Dr. George Alexander of New York city.
 Dr. Alexander has been the head of the Briggs party in New York for five years. The conservatives have settled upon Dr Robert Russell Booth of New York as their candidate. Dr. Booth has been foremost among the antl-Brigg fighters.
 There is a movemnt manifest among the extreme conservatives to bring up the question of Dr., Briggs deposition from the ministry. That will depend upon the result of the contest for mod orator. The conservatives are of the opinion that Dr. Briggs intends to turn his back on the Presbyterian church He has been taking communion with a Protestant Episcopal church and all his family have already conformed to the Episcopal church. Among the minor matters which the assembly will consider none will attract more atten- tion than an attempt on the liberals to put down the salary of the stated clerk, Rev. pr. William Fl. Roberts, who is an anti-Briggs man.

IS DUE TO CARELESSNESS.
BOTH ENGINEEB AND FTREAAN
 LEFT THEIR LOCOMOTIVE.

Moment After the Latter Left the Throttle
 Threw Open and the Engine Dashed
 Down the Track and GolIided With a
 Passenger Train Injuring Several People
 No One Was Killed.
 Little Rock, Ark, May 5.--A wild en- zine collided with a passenger train on the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and South ern road, near Clarksville yesterday. Thirteen passengers were injured, none, however, fatally.
 The accident was due to the care- .lessness of Engineer Wilbank, who was at the throttle of locomotive drawing freight train. He was to meet the passenger train at Clarksville and was, under orders to sidetrack there.
 Leaving his train on the main track, however, he stepped in the telegraph of- flee to make inquiry as to the where- abouts of the passenger train. A mo- ment later the fireman stepped off to get drink and while the engine was thus deserted the throttle flew open and the engine being detached from the cars started off up the track at full speed. The shock of the collision was terrific. Both engines were demolished and the coaches of the passenger train were badly damaged. Relief was at once sent from Clarksville.

WAS BLOWN INTO THE AIR
EUGENE M'oULRK W.4S INSTANTLY
 KILLED BY AN EXPLOSION.

He Carried Lighted Lamp to the Top of
 an Empty Tank and Fried off the Man
 hole With Crowbar-Hartford Gas Com
 pany 's Works the Scene of Explosion. Hartford, May 1.-The residents in the neighborhood of the Hartford Gas company's works at Front and Potter streets were awakened from their sleep at 4:3O this morning by a rumbling re- port which sounded like thunder. A big tank used for storing water, and with a capacity for 25,000 gallons, had exploded and caused the loud report. The big tank was situated out in the yard, It was twenty-seven feet high and twelve feet in diameter. The tank had been out of repair for a week.
 One of the employees notified Eugene McQuirk, who had charge of the tank, that there was no water in the tank, although the indicator showed that there was some in 1t. McQuirk took a ladder and went to the top of the tank to investigate. He prled off the man. hole with a crowbar, and it is supposed he carried a lighted lamp with him. It is thought that the tank was filled with marsh water, or what the gas officials call fire damp, and that the lighted lamp coming in contact with the gas caused the explosion.
 The top of the big tank was blown off 200 feet in the air and landed on the ground short distance away from the tank, broken in several pieces. Me Quirk was blown fifty feet in the air and was killed instantly.
 When the other employees of the gas works heard the report of the explosion they rushed out of doors and found McQuirk's body lying on the ground Physicians were summoned but 1t was found that the man had been dead some time. His shoulder on the left side was crushed and both legs and arms broken. He was twenty-eight years of age and was single. So far as can be learned he had no relatives In this city. He formerly served in the United States navy and has brother now in the service.
 The windows in the building on the property of the gas company were shat tered by the force of the explosion. The tank was one which the company used for the storage of water from the river fo the manufacture of water gas. Coroner Talntor of this city made an investigation to-day and decided that the company was not criminally re- sponsible for McQuirk's death. The latter was probably responsible for the explosion, the coroner believed, through his own carelessness. The tank which blew up this morning was a compara- lively new one, and was not thought to be defective.

JUDGE JACKSON IS ON HAND
HE IS READY FOR REARG UMENT
 ON THE INCOME TAX LAW.

Chief Justice Fuller and Other Justices or
 the Supreme Court Called Upon Him and
 During the Course of Their Conversation
 the Rehearing Was outlined-The Whole
 Case Will be Gone Into.
 Washington, D. C.. May 5.-Justice Jackson of the supreme court the United States arrived in Washington this morning from Tennessee to hear the re-argument of the income tax cases. He made the trip with but little fatigue. The justice looks well, al- though he has lost considerable in weight since he left Washington last winter.
 During the afternoon and evening Chief Justice Fuller and several other justices called upon Justice Jackson to express their pleasure at his return. Tn the course of their conversation the re-hearing was outlined to Justice Jackson. The whole case will be gone into and the re-hearing will include the constitutionality of the tax on rents and state and municipal bonds, as well as upon all other points on which the court divided equally on April S.
 After the argument has been con- cluded Justice JacKSOH WITH JoiI III tilC conference and on the determination will return to Nashville. He expects to be in Washington only about week, probably less From this fact it has been inferred that the reargument will result in no variation of the decree rem dered by the court last month.
 The argument, as stated in the order, will be confined ito two counsels on each side, but no limitation of time will be fixed. This makes 1t probable that it will not be concluded before Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday. For the opponents of the law Messrs. w D. Guthrie and Joseph H. Choate will again appear and the constitutionality of the law will be affirmed by Attorney General Olney and Assistant Attorney General Whitney.

4 MUSIC HAL1 FOR HA1E.
Talk of Such Building to be Erected ir
 the Near Futnre

 Talk of Such Building to be Erected in
 the Near Future.
 Unusual activity has been shown in the musical department of Yale during the past year and the need of laore commodious rooms for concerts and musical instruction having become evil dent, 1t as probable that before long a new music hall will be built. Professor Sanford has assured the faculty that if sufficient sum for the erection of the building can be secured the money for a magnificent organ will be at once forthcoming. As yet, however. no money has been obtained for the new building.
 Possible sites for such structure are being considered by the faculty and as the campus is already crowded, it would probably be built on one of the several pieces of available property on which the Yale corporation has the option.
