EIGHT DIE IN A WRECK,
Disobedience Of Orders Cause a Colii-
sion un the Frisco.

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct 25-Shortly
before 10 o'clock this morning two
passenger trains on the St. Louis
and San Francisco railroad, going in
opposite directions, collided nearly
opposite Windsor station, about
thirteen miles from this city,instaut
ly killing eight persons and iniuring
mere than thirty, three of whom
will probably die
1t seems from statements made by
men employed Oh the line that the
accident was due to the oversight of
one OF the oldest engineers on this
division OF the Frisco, Joseph Dry
den, who was in charge of the excur
sion train.
- csnno. see how it could have
occurred, said an official Of the road
to might, but Engineer Dryden
seems to have entirely forgotten
about No. II, the accommodation
train. He is one of the best engin
GERS on the road. and the overlook
ing OF the train which was travelling
toward him is al. the more remark
- able for the reason that he was fer
time it's engineer. and was, there
fore, perfectly familiar with it
schedule. But the train seems t,
have dropped completely out of hi
recollection. He failed to take tn
siding and his conductor, Georg
Atwood, who was taking tickets, fail
- ed to notice the fact"
The collision occurred betwee
the second section Of an excul
sion train bound West and th
Frisco Valley park accommodation
From what can be learned at thi
hour the accident was the result {
disobedience or neglect of orders 0
the part OF the excursion train crew
who should have remained at Sprin
park for orders, and to have let tl
accommodation train through.
The excursion train was the seeon
r: section of a special, bound Tor S
James, Mo, 100 miles west of S
Louis, where the Missouri Home f,
Aged Veterans was dedicated to ds
under the auspices of the G. A.
. and Woman's Relief corps.

Gently asked the journal 10 state
again the bullion value of silver be-
fore and after the passage of the act |
of 1878 demonetizing it. The United /

pamphlet July /, 1896, giving sta
tistIc about the bonds and currency
OF the country. Ia this the value of
an ounce Of silver in London for
many years since 1888 is given In
United States gold coin tue price OF
silver ranged from 81 297 in 1888
to 81 353 in 1857, the highest poln:
reached by silver in the time referred
to. The price never went below
| that in 1888. From 1853 to 1872
silver declined gradually to 81 322
After the passage of the act demon.
etizing it the quotation fell, in 1873,
to S129S It has no. been worth as
much since. In 1856 the value Of
silver fell below one dollar. bu. in
1890 it rose to Sl046. This was
followed by the steady fall to the
present figure of 64s cents.
These figures show that just be-
fore silver was demonetized it was
quoted p cents higher than forty
years previously, in the meantime
never having gone below the start
ing price. and at one time having
reached II considerably higher figure
than that at the end of the period
Immediately following its demone
tization silver declined in value, anl
the decline has been steady excep
for an occasional upward squirt du

The Police CommIssIoners Upheld by the
Court of Appeals.

Albany. March 1O.The Court OF Appeals to-
day. in the case Of ex-Police Captain Michael
Doherty and his ward men, Bernard Mcehan
and John Hook, affirmed, with costs. the orders
of the General Term on the opinion below. The
accused men appealed from the action of
the Police Commissioners of New York city.
who dismissed them from the force n result
of the exposures before the Lexow committee.
The Court Of Appeals was asked to reverse the
action of the General Term. which affirmed the
action of the Commissioners The contention
was that there was no legal evidence to warrant
the dismissal of the men from the force. Do
herty dismissed on the charge OF having
accepted bribes from Mrs. Augusta Thurow.
who kept disorderly house In his precinct.
The point OF appeal was that the evidence OF
Mrs ThurOw was not sufficient to warrant the
findings OF the Commissioners.
7 edismissal Of Indictments which were OBJ
tained on her evidence was cited. This dis
missal was. recommended by District Attorney
Fellows short time ago and agreed to by the
court on the ground that the womnn's evidence
was insufficient and that no conviction could
be obtained on 1t. This exhibition of the in
sufficiency of evidence was ample basis, it was,
