WILD PLUNGE OF A HAND-CAR.
Frightful Accident Near Winchester.
Kentucky.

WINCHESTER (ky), Aug ia
frightful accident occurred near here
to-day, by which two men were instant
ly killed, another hurt so badly that he
died few hours later and two others
severely injured so that small hope OF
their recovery is entertained.
The accident happened on the Lexing-
ton and Eastern railroad. Early this
morning a hand car left here in charge
of Foreman j. Quinlaw. Accompanying
him were four section hands Every
thing went along smoothly until Walker
Creek treStle was reached. At this point
there is a slight down grade, and the car
went ahead with great velocity. Quin-
law demonstrated with the men who
We're running the car and tried to get
them to check the speed.
His remonstrance, however, was too
late, and just as the car reached the
trestle the speed was SO great that it
jumped the track and dropped on the
rocks, fifty feet below.
Edward Sparks and Marion Chatt-
man were instantly killed.
John chatham was terribly mangled
and lived but few hours.
Foreman Quinlaw and his son received
severe injuries, and it is very doubtful
if they will recover.
News of the accident reached town
few hours after it occurred, and aid was
dispatched to the scene as quickly as
possible.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11-There was a
latal hre this afternoon in the build
ings at 465-469 Greenwich street. oc-
cup1ed by the A. u. Warren Electric
WORKS and number of small firms.
In the excitement attending the out
break it was first estimated that about
thirty people were in the building The
accurate number of victims will not
be known until the ruins are searched.
1t is believed, however, that the death
list will prove to be between fifteen and
seventeen. While the firemen were
fighting the flames the bodies of two
victims could be plainly seen on the
fire escapes. Five men and three boys
We're injured while escaping. They
were taken to the Hudson Street Hos
pital mangled and burned.
What caused the fire is not known
| but it is believed to have been started
by an explosion. 1t is known that an
explosion occurred a few minutes be-
fore, and the fire spread like a flash,
beginning at 465, and cut off the ESCAPE
of many.
The firemen who first reached the
scene of the confiagration say they saw
q number of men at the windows an
pealing for help, but before any at
tempt at rescue could be made thew
fell back exhausted by the heat and
| smoke, and all are supposed to have
perished from the flames.
Altogether there were about thirty
two men employed by the Warren
Company. There were twelve on the
sixth, or top floor. eleven on the fifth,
four on the fourth and a couple in the
office on the ground floor
The list of killed and injured cannot
be compiled at this time 1t will be
several hours before the ruins are
cooled sufficiently to allow the firemen
to enter.
| From stories told by those who
claimed to have been near by when the
first alarm was given, faces were seen
at nearly every window That at
least four are sedu in the ruins there
can be no doubt, for their charred
bodies lie exposed TO view on the fire
escapes of the third and fifth stories
Two others, one a girl, We're seen to fall
back in the flames, overcome by the
smoke, before the fire gushed forth.
| So far as known at this writing the
| injured are: Felix Haas, slightly:
1homas Sharkey, burned on head; un-
known man, unconscious, will probably
die; Eugene Gregwood, boy, slightly
burned. Cummings, badly burned and
back apparently broken, jumped from
fourth story window. and striking the
structure of the IL road, fell to the
ground; will probably die.
Among the dead are w. NJ. Gray,
foreman of the electric works, and Es-
ther Finstein, also an employe.
NOT SO BAD AS FIRST REPORTED.
Late tonight it was pretty well
proved that not more than five lives
have been lost, if indeed the number of
dead will finally reach that total Many
| supposedly dead people have made their
appearance.
The financial loss was fixed at some
thing over 100000.

LOUISIANA LYNCHINGS.
An inquiry as to What Country the
Victims Were Citizens of.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11.-Baron
Fava, the Italian ambassador, who is
summering at Bar Harbor, has tele-
graphed the State Department in ac-
cordance with cabled instructions from
his Government asking for official in
formation regarding the lynching of
three alleged Italian subjects in Lou
isiana, as reported in the newspapers.
The State Department has promptly
called on the Governor of Louisiana
for full report of the occurrence, in
order that suitable reply can be made
to the ambassador.
If it can be found that the Italians
were naturaliZed American citizens,
the inquiry will stop, as the Italian
Government can no longer take any
interest in the affair, but if, as in the
case of the similar lynchings of Ital
ians in Louisiana and Colorado, the
men are shown to be aliens to the
United States, an indemnity will un
doubtedly be demanded and Congress
asked to appropriate for that purpose
as it did in former instances. Until the
Governor of Louisiana makes his report
no further action by Italy can be ex-
pected.

IMPORTANT DECISION
RENDERED BY u. s. DISTRICT
JUDGE WELBORN,
Relating to the Governments Right
to Fix Rates for Mail and Mill
tary Transportation.

Los ANGELES, Aug. 11-Judge
WeIborn of the United States District
Court rendered a decision to-day which
is in effect that the Government has
the right to fix the rates for transorta-
ton of troops or any other Government
business, including the mails, over any
railroad.
1t is estimated that the decision will
make difference of from 1900 900
tc 500, 100000 in the amounts paid by
the Government every year for trans
portation of mails, troops and other
things.
The suit of which this decision is the
outcome, was brought by the Atlantic
and Pacific road, backed by all the
other land grant roads, as a test case
trooper who Travelled from Albu-
querque, n. M, to Prescott, A T., re-

accept this, and after transporting the

nlent
The case was argued before Judge
Welborn several months ago. Judge
Terry appeared for the A. and p. and

j. H. Herrin was for the Southern Pa

1t was not intended by the railroads
that the decision should be so far
reaching, but it appears that the decis-
ion affects not only the railroads which
have land grants, but all roads. and
gives the Government the right to fix
the rates not only for its own business.
but for all business done by railroads.
provided the rates are such that a
profit ensues for the road The decis-
ion is very lengthy document.

raise a protesting hand.
In the meantime the City Committee
had succeeded in forcing their way into
the car, and none too soon, as after a
stop of nine minutes the train pulled out
for New York amid the cheers of the
surrounding mob. Chairman Curley
then greeted Mr.. Bryan and wished him
success, and expressed regret that his
stay in Philadelphia was so brief, as
otherwise the committee would have ar
ranged for a fitting reception. Mr.. Bry-
