try, who recently submitted his views
to the commission on request, said to
the Associated Press representative, in
discussing the work of the commissions:
II think the revenue and finance de-
partments of the government should
be completely separated.
II should like to see our variegated
paper currency unified into two sec
tions. coin certificates and silver Ger
tifcates, the coin certificates to be con-
fined to denominations of $40 and over
and the silver certificates to So, $2 and
81 bills, gradually withdrawing all sill
yer certificates of denominations high
er than S. The treasury should hold
gold reserve equal to rs per cent OF
the coin certificates, and the secretary
of the treasury should be authorized
to. cancel all coin certificates when paid
in gold. He should have authority to
maintain the gold reserve at all times
by purchasing gold with surplus cash
in the treasury and short time obliga-
tions of the government.
"The national banks should be per
~,nitted to issue notes to the par value
of the government bonds held by them.
Canada has a fairly good system for
the regulation of bank circulation, and
it might be studied with profit"

in the sleepers being in: their berths,
while the occupants of the coach and
smoker were for the most part dou-

train met it's awful fate will never
be fully known, for the men who first
felt the danger, Engineer John Doyle
and Fireman John Tompkins, tonight
lie dead in the cab of their locomotive
at the bottom of the Hudson river.
Conductor Parish, who was III charge
of the train, and who was making up
his report in one of the cars when the
crash came, was rendered unconscious
by a blow on the head. When he re-
covered he was three seats ahead of
the one in which he had been sitting.
PASSENGERS TALK.
One of the few occupants of the
coach who escaped was Frank J. De-
gan, a wood finisher of New York His
left eye was cut by broken glass and
his body was slightly bruised. Mr..
Degan made this statement:
With my friend, W. H. g. Myers, of Pas
saic N. j. who was killed in the car from
which l escaped, l had been to Poughkeeps1e.
We boarded the train at that place and took
a seat in the coach. Three other people got
on at Poughkeepsie; one was woman and
looked like a railroad employe. AS near as
can judge, there were eighteen people in
the coach, most of them being women and
children, and nearly all were asleep. My

in command in British East Africa,
and later was connected with the Royal

course of an interview as to the diff

French in the Hinterland of Lagos, in

correspondent of the Associated Press:
Beyond the fact that the government
has telegraphically summoned me for
special service in West Africa, L know
riothing as to my future movements
With regard to the French claims,
however, the case is quite clear. Bor-

putably belongs to England, by virtue
of treaty concluded with the king
prior to any so-called treaties with
France or any other European nation;
We have also treaties with Ilesha and

CHICAGO, Oct 24.-Dense fogs and
heavy seas all over' the great lakes
brought disaster to several vessels to-
day. Eight men reached Chicago to-
night after a terrible experience, leaV-
ing their vessel as it sank out OF sight
in Lake Michigan. -Four vessels ran
on rocks and banks, and one suffered
from a collision in the fog.
1t was the Chicago steamer j. w.
Clifford that foundered in Lake Michi-
gan, but fortunately the crew was
picked up and brought safely to port.
A can of oil kept the heavy waves
from breaking over the little yawl as
it drifted before a nasty. squall in the
fog. After three hours the crew was
rescued by the steamer City of Sheboy-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 44.-When the
monetary commission reconvenes On
Nov. 8 it will be ready to begin the
preparation of it's currency measure
and the report that will accompany it.
The measure itself Will not be one OF
great length, and 1t is probable that
the report, instead of attempting to
give a digest of all the suggestions and
testimony before the commission, Will
confine itself to clear statement of
facts and terse argument in support
of the measure agreed upon.
The great mass of the suggestions
has been from men who have evidently
given much careful study and intelli-
gent thought to the currency question.
The suggestions range over every pos.
sible phase of the subject, and almost
every writer has some suggestion to
make as to the place that silver should
hold in the currency of the country.
The commission asked a number OF
questions of a number of financial ex-
perts and men Of large experience in
financial affairs. The tenor of the re-
plies received is conservative One OF

the crash came the car gave great lurch,
and rolled over on it's side. The water rushed
in and almost instantly the lights went out.
l knew we were in the river, and the car
seemed to plough through the water for some
time after it was submerged. The car was
tilted over on one side and I managed to
reach the fan light overhead and cling to 1t
until help came. 1 heard people IN the back
part of the car groaning as If they were

seemed an age, heard people on top OF the

noise of that ak in the splintered timbers
made the sweetest music l ever heard in
my life. Soon they had a hole cut in the
roof and pulled me out through it. man

in the same way, but l know OF no other

was drowned.
Augustus Carr, German living near
the scene of the wreck, gives this de-
scription:
1t was about five minutes before six when
I was awakened by some one IN my yard
calling for help. Looking out OF my wlndoW
l saw a sleeping car porter who shouted :
For Gods sake, man, if you own boat,
come quickly. Our train is in the river and
people are drowning"
| dressed myself and accompanied by the
porter got into my row boat and rowed ID
around the curve to where the train was IN
the river When we reached the cars which
were submerged, nearly to their roofs, roo the the
of the tug boats were making efforts to save
the passengers. The, first man l saw them
take out was, 1 think, the agent of the ex,
press car. The first persons we succeeded
in rescung were TWO Cinnamon who were
sitting on the roof of the smoker. One had
his arm broken. We put them ashore and then
took three more persons off the top OF an
other car At the same time people in their
underclo;hes were being taken out of the
sleeping cars by the crews of the several
TUGS, One man on shore with an arm cut
off was dying and we made s,b7a his last .nt mo- O.
say that the porter, although frightened,
showed great bravery and saved many lives.
One of the trainmen who survived
the disaster made it his first duty to
run to the first signal tower to tele-
graph for help. The place where the
wreck occurred is rather isolated

as Kings cut. three miles south Of

In a few minutes Carr had dressed
himself, and getting boat rowed with
the porter to the scene AS they turn
ed a point in the bank they came upon
the express car and the combination
car floating about twenty feet from
shore, but sinking every minute. One
man was taken from the top of the car
and efforts were made to rescue those
inside. A few were gotten out, the
passengers left upon the track making
a human bridge to the shore to take
the wounded on. The day coach and
smoker had gone down in the deeper
water and rescue was impossible. In
the latter coach the conditions must
have been horrible. The car turned
completely over and the passenger end
OF it was in the deep water, while the
baggage end stood up towards the sur

SCORE OF BODIES.
The closing scene of the first day of
this tragedy is drawn around a COM
mon car that stands near the scene of
the accident where nearly a score. of
badly mutilated bodies, none of them
yet claimed by friends, are lying in a
long row, grewsome evidences of the
disaster, the greatest that has ever oc-
Cured on this railroad.
The wrecked train was known as the
State Express. 1t left Buffalo at Z
o'clock last night, and was due
in New York at Z o'clock
this morning. The train was
hauled by engine S72, and consisted of
one American Express car, one COM
posite baggage and smoking car, one
day coach and six sleepers. Pough-
keepsie was the last stopping place of
the train before the disaster at $40
a. m. At this time there were in the
smoker, in addition to the bagga geman.
Herman Acker, of PeekskiIl, who was
in his compartment, eight Cinnamon
en- route from the Canadian border to
New York, and a middle-aged man,
supposed to be Thomas Reilly, of 1850
Wisconsin avenue, st. Louis. All of
these, excepting the bagga agemaster,
perished. The day coach contained
eighteen or twenty passengers, many
of whom were women and children
How many of these escaped is not
known, but at least twelve were
drowned or killed in this car Behind
the coach were the six sleepers, with
about sixty-five passengers. The
total cargo of human freight consisted
of something over a hundred people.
At Fishkill the train lessened it's
speed as it is it's custom to run from
that point to Tarrytown at the rate Of
about twenty-five miles an hour. Most
