wife had been on q visit to the latter's
father. residing near Gurney. Their
bodies were not found in the wreck
and their absence can only be account
ed for by the fact that they must have
been burned in the wrccd.
The railroad authorities say that
they have received indefinite inquiries
about the Tibbs family but know
nothing of them.

Several persons from Blocton, who
were early on the scene of the wreck,
still declare that twenty-seven bodies
were taken ont of the river. The
Blocton people seem to think that sew
eraI bodies were taken away by friends
before tine relief train left on its re-
turn trip with the dead and wounded.
The railrood officials however are firm
in their statement that only twenty

The fact still remains, nevertheless
that it is and always will be impossible
to- know Just how many passengers
we're ON the train and who they were

Washington, December 2S.-The
Post tomorrow will say
1T has been learned from an au-
thoritatiye source that Secretary Olney
and Senor Dupuy de Lone, the Spanish
minister, have practically terminated
the negotiations on the Cuban ques-
ton. which are to be submitted to
Congress when it convenes on January
,. The terms OF the agreement are
based On the recent Official communl-
cation from Premier CanOvas, ad-
dressed to the Secretary Of State.
"Tbe Premier states clearly the
terms which Spain will accord to the
insurgents and practically asks the
United States to propose these cOndl-
tiOns TO her rebelliOus subjects. In
return for our good Offices, Spain as
sures this government that she sin
cerely deplOres the great commercial
loss which we have sustained on ac-
count of The Cuban disturbance. She
assures us that she is even now con-
sidering q reciprocity treaty which will
deal mainly with Cuban products, and
which will be framed in such advanta-
geous terms toward this government
that our losses, both in commerce and
in the destruction Of American prop
erty in Cuba. will be most generously
compensated.
Premier CanOvas says that Spain
cannot. of course, as self-respectinS
and respected nation, stand before the
world as having been cOerced into
measures by the United States She
has freely granted all that she now Of
fers. and that in the face Of a rebellion.
But she accepts the good Offices of the
United States to act as mediator and to
guarantee to the insurgents amnesty,
and the enforcement of the new reform
law which she is about TO proclaim in
Cuba. The form Of government Of
fered is. the Spanish statesman de-
clares. the limit of independence which
can be granted 10 province by any
nation. without absolutely severing the
bonds Of union with the mother coun-
try. Autonomy, as enjoyed by the
Canadians, can never be granted in
Cuba
What s lin vii grant the in
surgents. if they lay down their arms,
and what she asks the United States to
guarantee. is an act which provides for
a council Of administration which shall
control all matters pertaining to the
commerce of the Indies, and all esti-
mates upon the general taxation and
expenditures of the islands as well as
It's general home government.
