The. west bound way freight was COM

miles an hour, when, upon turn
ing short curve on down grade it came
upon. a work train backing east at a speed
of thirty-five miles an hour. The collision
was something terrific. On the rear of the
work train was the boarding car, in which
were four men belonging to the work
crew. They were never aware of their
danger and were undoubtedly instantly
killed. The car took fire and the bodies
of the three men were burned in the
wreck. Herman Rebey, fireman on the
work train, was also instantly killed, but
the body was recovered. Both engines
were totally wrecked.
The wreck was caused by the diSobey-
ing of orders by the engineer and cOnduc-
tor of the work train, who were given the
right of way to the west bound track. They
forgot their orders and took the east bound
and did not discover their error until too
late.

been placed over him.
The damage is estimated at 100000.

today to call the caucus together at 10
o'clock tomorrow. The meeting has
been under contemplation for several days
owing to the fact that there are various ar
ticles on which it has been found desira-
BILE to have the party in the senate agree
to its assembled capacity, but the calling
of the caucus was precipitated by the fact
that the sugar schedule had been practical
ly reached in its order, and it became nee
essary to decide what position the party
should take upon this question. There
has been very pronounced opposition
among republicans as to the schedule as
prepared by the senate committee on
finance, some of them going so far as to
declare they would not vote for it unless
altered Some of these senators declare
they will not obey even the behest of the
caucus in case il declares for the finance
committees schedule. Members of the
committee admit this state of affairs, and
also admit shat 4 change will be made
which will make the schedule acceptable
to the entire senate. There are various
suggestions as to what change will be
made. but the matter is yet in such chaotic
shape that it is impossible for even the re-
publican leaders to state what may be
done.
Senator Aldrich is expected to be able
to attend the caucus. There are various
other questions which will be taken up in
the caucus ii the sugar question does not
occupy the entire time. These include the
tea duty, wool duty, beer tax, the PROPOSE
ton to tax bank checks, deeds. etc. the
hide duty, the lead ore rates, etc. The in
dicatons now are very strong that beer
and tea will both go out of the bill. 1t is
also quite as certain that there will be an
increase in the wool schedule. The sup
porters of the hide duty and of the senate
rate on lead ore express confidence that
these will remain untouched. Senator
Nelson's antitrust amendment will also
be brought to the attention of the caucus If
onnartunitv ffOr1S.
