WRECK ON THE SANTA FR.
A Miracle That Many Lives Were Not
Lost

A Miracle That Many Lives Were Not
Lost.
SAN DIEGO, March SIT was in the
killed by the wreck of the Chicago linn
tied on the Santa Fe Railroad last night
near Del Mar.
The relief train which left SanDiego
just after midnight reached the scene of
the wreck at 2:30 o'clock this morning,
and returned to this city at 4:30 a. m.
with the passengers, 1t was learned
that the accident was caused by a
broken f1ange on the rear trucks of the
tender. The broken wheel left the
track on a curve. the truck finally drop
ping out from under the tender and
smashing into the baggage car.
The engine and tender ran few feet
further on and then took to the ditch,
the engineer and fireman jumping in
time to save their lives.
The baggage car jumped the track to
the left and turned upon its side.
The smoker followed the baggage car,
but its trucks were knocked from under
it, leaving the car fiat upon it's bottom.
and saving the lives of scores of pas
sengers.
The day coach flew over to the right
Of the track, and hung in a balance over
a twenty-foot embankment.
The parlor car following was also de-
rallied, but remained right side up. The
Pullman sleeper did not leave the rails.
Hardly had the train stopped before
the baggage car was afire from the
stove and lamp, and rapidly burned.
Baggageman King was pinned down
under a number of trunks near the
stove, and was badly injured before he
was rescued by the expressman. Con-
ductor Kinney was thrown against the
stove, having his arm severely cut and
his head bruised.
The expressman succeeded in getting
out the Wells-Fargo treasure box, but
all other express matter was consumed.
One sack of mail, consisting of news
papers only, was removed before the
fire became too hot to approach Every
thing else in the car was destroyed, in
Guiding nineteen bicycles owned by the
Stearns racing team.
The passengers in the smoker escaped
without a scratch. Those in the day
coach were rolled about somewhat, but
made their exit in safety and suffered
no injuries. The occupants of the par
lor car were scarcely Jared, while the
inmates OIL the SleeperS were hardly
aware that there had been a wreck
This is most astonishing. as the ex-
press was going at the rate of thirty
five miles an hour when the accident
occurred.
The fire spread rapidly from the bag
gage car to the other coaches, which
were consumed in turn. The passen-
gers had ample time, however, to re-
move their traps from the cars, and
most Of the fittings of the Pullman
sleeper were also saved.
The total loss cannot be estimated at
present, but is roughly placed at S125,-
000
All the passengers are now in San
Diego.

PORTLAND (Or), March S.-A huge
landslide swept down ravine on Port
land Hights at Z o'clock this morning,
completely wrecking the dwelling house
of Daniel Mcdonald and killing his
daughter Belle, aged IS; his cousin
Daniel Campbell, who was a guest in
the house, and seriously injuring Nc
Donald and his wife and a younger
daughter, Mary.
Without a moments warning 1000
cubic yards of earth crashed down the
side Of the ravine from an altitude of
500 feet, striking the corner of the
building and thoroughly demolishing it.
The inmates were all asleep at the time,
and so great was the shock that the bed
upon which Mrs. Mcdonald was lying
was thrust through a rent in the side of
the house and thrown far out into the
roadway. The lady was badly bruised
and suffers from nervous prostration.
Mr.. Mcdonald, who is an invalid, was
also cast out into the road through the
same aperture and buried in mass of
earth. He managed to work his way
out and give the alarm.
Neighbors quickly gathered about the
wrecked building and rescued the
younger daughter of the owner, Miss
Mary, who was pinned down by pile of
wreckage. She was badly cut and
bruised, but will recover.
Search was then instituted for Miss
Belle and Mr. Campbell The latter
was shortly discovered in his bed, dead
from suffocation.
Willing volunteers began digging in
the great mound of earth for the re-
mains of the missing young lady, which
they finally reached at 1 o'clock this
afternoon. The appearance of the body
Indicated that death had not been in
Simultaneous, the victim having been
slowly crushed and suffccated.
The avalanche was caused by the
operation of small spring on the crest
of the hill which had saturated a great
quantity of loose soil, causing it to start
from its frozen bed. The McDonalds
are well-to-do and highly respected.

An Urgent Appeal Issued for More
Funds.
NEW YORK, March S-The following
urgent appeal has been received from
Constantinople by the National Arme-
nian Relief Committee:
Telegraph funds as fast as realized,
in order that we may push forward and
make the most of the present time
In response $4,000 was sent on
through Brown Bros, who are the au-
thorized Treasurers of the Armenian
relief fund and of the Red Cross, and
to whom all contributions should be
forwarded at 10 Wall street, New York
City.
The greatest obstacle to the work of
relief now is not from the Turks, but
from lack of funds. The distribution,
which is all done through American
residents and British Consuls, is going
on in thirteen centers, under direction
OF the United States Minister and Brit
ish Embassador and Clara Barton, who
are in consultation in Constantinople.

JOLIET Qlls.), March S.-Three boys
got on the Rock Island train which left
Chicago at 10 o'clock last night at the
station known as THE Chutes," and
created a disturbance which nearly cost
one of them his life. AS the first of
the boys entered the car he shouted
Hands up and instantly hands were
up in all parts of the car.
In the second seat from the door sat
a gentleman who carried a revolver,
and when his hand went up had a pistol
in it. He fired point-blank at the first
of the would-be robbers, and with a
yell the three boys ran out and jumped
from the moving train.
The conductor thinks the affair was
an escapade of three young toughs of
Joliet, and does not believe they in
