Stretching the Cable.

The work of stretching the cable through
the conduit of the Columbia railway was be-
gun at 1870 o'clock this morning by gang
of men. under the direction of Engineer
William b. Upton. and a drove Of thirty
two horses. When work was stopped at 5
am. the party. going west, had only reach
ed 18th street west.
Great difficulty was experienced in lay
Ing the big wire rope, owing to the con-
tinual breaking of the harness of the
horses. At B am, after the lapse of one
hour and a half from the time of starting,
but four blocks had been covered. AS
greater distance is passed over, the cable,
owing to its additional length, grows
heavier and the work of dragging 1t con-
sequently much mere laboriouS.
A determined effort is to be made to COM
plete the stretching of the cable tonight,
but it is hardly possible that success will
be attained. In view of the circumstances
trial trip cannot be made tomorrow, as
was expected. The first cable car to glide
over the new line, however. will undoubted-
ly make its appearance during the early
part of next week.

ENGINEER NUFFER's STORY.
The Recent Mexican Disaster Not Due

The Recent Mexican Disaster Not Due
to Rapid Running.
LAREDO, Tex, March S.-Engineer John
Nuffer, the American who is held respon-
sible by many in Mexico for the terrible
wreck on the Inter-Oceanic railway Feb
ruary 2S last, Is in this city, and gives the
following story of the accident:
He was pulling the first section of an ex-
.ursion train which was returning to the
City Of Mexico. There were fifteen coaches
in his section. At Tenango. forty-eight
take on wood, which was at 11:46 o'clock.
He was crowded out by the second section.
and the accident occurred at 1906 o'clock,
twenty minutes after he had left Tenango.
in which time he had run only seven kilo-
meters. This, If true, proves that the train
was not running at high rate OF speed,
as has been charged. AT point OF curve
the fourth coach left the track, having
broken an axle. This set the automatic
brakes The engine and first three coaches
did not go forward more than twenty feet.
The third coach behind the one which left
the track was what is known as an English
iron-clad, the framework being of steel and
the sides of iron. This coach plowed
caused the havoc which cost many passen-
gers their lives. The passengers in this
coach all escaped.
LAS soon as the accident occurred" said
Nuffer, Il went TO the rescue OF tne sur
ferers, and while engaged in doing all I
could to relieve their suffering was warned
that 1 had better get away from the scene,
as some of the young men threatened to
kill me because they had lost their relatives
in the wreck. 1 was fired upon and slightly
wounded IN the hip. 1 Immediately left the
scene and escaped to Mexico City, whence
1 came to the United States. Had I not
been a Mason 1 could never have gotten
out of the country. I am in receipt of
telegram from Mr.. jackson, president of
the Inter-Oceanic, to the effect that they
do not hold me responsible for the accident.
Mr.. Sullivan, superin tendent of the line,
was on the engine with me when the acct
dent occurred. To my knowledge, there
are no charges pending against me in Mex
ico."

Testimony Taken by Telephone.

The wonderful uses to which the tele-
phone may be applied was shown In re-
cent trial at Detroit, where a witness tes-
titled in case over the wire at Wayne
thirty miles away. The testimony of
Cashier George H. Stellwagen of the bank
in that village was valuable, but on ac-
count of sickness in the family he could
not come to the city. Accordingly he was
sworn over the telephone, examined and
cross-examined, and his testimony, taken
down by a stenographer, was entered in
the court minutes.
