TRAIN WRECKS A TALLY-HO
EYE PEOPLE KILLED AND 4 NUM- BEE INJURED ON LONG ISLAND.

Party of Exoursionists from Brooklyn
 on a Coach Dashed Into by Train at
 Full Speed-Death and Havoc in the FrightfuI Wreck Deadly Grade Crossing
 at Valley Stream Near Minola.
 New York, May S1.-Five young peo-
 pie were killed and a number of others
 injured in an accident which occurred
 this afternoon at Valley stream, Long
 Island. A tally-ho with a party of twenty-one excursionists from the Green avenue Baptist church, Brooklyn. which started out for g. days outing
 through Long Island was struck by a train on the Long Island railroad at the
 Herrick Boulevard crossing and the
 following were killed:
 George Fashley, jr., William Stowe- lis, Adam Lamberg, Lester D. Roberts,
 and Miss Dora Burtsch, all of Brook lyn.
 The injured were: Emma Bruge, skull fractured; Clara Stuart, skull fractured; Miss Anna Andrews, both legs broken; Lawrence Harnes, jr.. scalp wound; Walter Wellbrock, both thighs fractured; John Lewis, bruises;I Edward Mccormick, the driver of the coach, badly injured; Earl Barnes, slightly injured; Miss Pashley, back broken; Tilly Hern, severe shock; Ed- na Bullmer, severe shock; Richard
 Bates. scalp wound Bessie Gilson, scalp
 wound; Miss Debbs, leg broken, head! jr1j, pox ho, jured.
 The body of Lester Roberts was
 ground to pieces. The body of Miss Burtsch was badly mangled. The crash came almost without warning and the occupants of the coach had no time to
 make any effort to escape. Before the most of them knew of the impending danger the train was upon them ands
 the coach was upset and the engine.
 pushing it along the rails with the dead! and injured under 1t.
 The train was bound east from Min- ola. It was not running fast when
 the accident happened, and accounts
 differ as to whether the whistle was
 blown. It is also a matter of dispute whether the bell was rung. It is claim- ed by some that it was and that the
 merry party in the coach was making so much noise that the driver could not
 hear the bell. The double team of the
 tally-ho had crossed the track and had the front wheels upon the rails when the pilot of the train was seen by the driver.
 He gave the horses a cut with the whip but it was too late, and momenr later the crash came. The heavy en- zine, driven forward by the momentum raised the coach and the load from the ground and hurled it forward. The shock threw some of the passengers into the air, and they landed on the rails and gutters, which run on either side of the track. Others went down
 under the coach, which was pushed along the rails by the train for some
 distance. Those who were killed and those most badly injured were caught
 under the coach and crushed.

der the able direction of Professor Jep- son rendered several patriotic selec- tions, which were very heartily ap- plauded. Especially enthusiastic was the reception given to "Vive rAmeri- ca," sung as solo by Miss May Low eridge, the chorus being repeated by the chorus. At one point in the chorus flags were waved by all the chorus with beautiful effect.
 The address of Comrade Rev. John L.. Pitner, department chaplain, was then delivered He said in part:
 "The war settled the old automatic principle that a part is not greater than the whole. The state of South Carolina claimed that part was great CT than the whole, and the problem was worked out in blood. It was de- cided that part was not greater than the whole, and that he cannot be a patriot who does not love the nation more than the state. The soughing winds of the south, the factories of the north, the sheeny corn of Illinois-these all are mine. So we want our boys to feel this.
 We must let the whole world un- derstand that, fight as we may amongst ourselves, we are as to the rest of the world united nation.
 T remember those scenes of the war when flags were presented to the troops in much the same words as these: Take this flag; carry it wherever you go; cover it with honor, as it has been covered And they took the flag, and did cover it with honor, and 300, 0O0 men have reported to God on high why they did not bring back the banner.
 Tt is the tribute of loyalty to loyalty that we want We cannot let bye zones be bye-gones, as some men wish; we cannot forget the scenes that are gone. We are all young again tonight, there are no gray hairs; we are stand ing in the solid ranks of battle as in the days of '61
 What will make men dare death in the battlefield? The defence of home and family will do it; but it rises into sublimity when it is done for the con- | monwealth."
 Referring to those who oppose the speaker spoke of the cost that it would have been to the country had the con- federacy succeeded.
 q cannot tell the value of a wife's tears, the suffering of the wounded or death on the field of battle. The price of these things cannot be estimated.
 "I want to beg of you all so to live and so act that we shall love the coun- try and that it shall stand ever In the forefront of nations.

4 New Havener Present.

Major J. H. Wilkins of New Haven erans of the Fifty-fourth who were at the ceremonies yesterday, and this number comprises the majority of the survivors of this regiment-the first regiment of colored men to go to the war. Major Wilkins of our city was the first colored man from Connecticut to enlist in the war, and he paid his own fare to Boston in order to enlist. He carried yesterday in the procession the same stand of colors that he bore in the war. Besides his comrades of the Fifty-fourth, there was a goodly number of the men of the Fifty-fifth Massachusetts colored regiment and the Fifth artillery (colored) in line. Major Wilkins greatly enjoyed the day de- spite the rain and mud through which the procession travelled. The gallant Seventh regiment of New York was feature of the line. Major Wilkins was enthusiastic in praise of the beauty of the monument erected to Col. Shaw's memory. He had hoped to stay and hear Booker T. Washington speak at the evenings celebration, but was obliged to return home early in the evening. Major Wilkins rose to be color sergeant of his regiment and served through the three years and more of his regiments service Though thirty-four years have elapsed since Major Wilkins went to the front the time, the major says, seems like dream, so rapidly has it seemed to pass.

 by Youthful Admlrer.

by lAumirSf.
 Philadelphia, May 31.-A special to the Evening Telegraph from Atlantic City, N. J., says: Mrs. Phoebe H. Phil lips, proprietress of the Kennett house, a fashionable boarding house on Ocean avenue, was shot and fatally wounded to-day by Robert Hilbert Mrs. Phil lips is forty-three years of age and has three grown up children. fItbbert is only twenty-two years of age. They both formerly lived at Kennett Square, Pa. Mrs. Phillips said in her ante-mor- tenn statement that for some time Hib- bert has been importuning her to mar ry him but that she declined, owing to the disparity of their ages.
 This morning he entered the kitchen where she was and almost immediately began to shoot at her, He fired five times, four of which took effect. Hib- bert then turned the revolver on him. self and pointed it at his head and the revolver failed to explode. He then left the house and went to police headquar- ters, where he gave himself up. He could assign no cause for his act ex- cept that he thought Mrs. Phillips treated him coldly when he entered the house this morning. He said he hoped she would die. The woman pleads with those about her to save her assailant from punishment She believed that Hilbert was not in his right mind this morning.

The old charges against De Brisay & Allen. Gus
tom House brokers. al No Il Wiliam-st.. took On
a new phase Yesterday. when Collector Kilbreth
asked United States DstrctAttOrney Macfarsne
TO bring proceedings agains: the members Of the
frm-Ha.old s. De Brsay. Joseph II. Allen and
Frederick NJ Comstock-under Section 3.49o. OF the
Revised Statutes to recover penalties OF 5000 on
each Of the two charges Of making fraudulent
entries This move against the firm Is known
as a qui tam proceeding Under the ordinary pro-
cedure action prevented by the statute Of
limitations More than three years have elapsed.
The alleged offences were committed in Marc5 1898
Section 3 40 allows proceeding for false claim
against the Government 10 be begun any tims
within six years The charges grew out OF claims
put in by DE Brisay & Allen for drawbacks on
tin imported into this country which was after
ward manufactured into and exported with
their contents. In such cases there IS a drawback
of 30 per cent of the duties originally paid. The
law says that to obtain drawback a preliminary
entry must he made at least eight hours before
the sailing OF a vessel. De Brisay Allen were
accused OF adding 10 entries without going through
