ANOTHER RAILROAD BLUNDER
Panhandle and l.. Il. 81 w. Trains in a
Head-End Collision.

A collision of passenger trains, without
loss of life or injury to any human being,
and with a slight property loss, occurred
yesterday at noon at the junction of the
Belt road and the L. Z. & w. Railroad.
The Pennsylvania Company uses the l.. E.
q w. road as far as kokomo in reaching
Chicago. Train No. r. which left the Union
Station at 1135 o'clock yesterday morning
was scheduled to meet train No. 122 on the
Lake Erie at the Belt. 1t was to take the
siding at that point for the southbound
Lake Erie train. 1t reached the point and
was compelled to pull beyond the siding and
back in. 1t had almost entered the siding
when the Lake Erie train came down and
struck the engine of the Panhandle train.
The two trains were going in the same di-
going slowly. The damage was Slight.
Passengers in the Panhandle train did not
know that there had been Il collision. Three
of the Lake Erie cars were slightly injured
and were taken from the train. The pilots
of both engines were slightly damaged.
1t is generally believed that the fault was
with the engineer of the l.. E. d w. train
or with the air brakes of his train. The or
ders OF both trains were that the Lake Erie
train should pass the Panhandle train at
that point, the latter to take the siding.
The Panhandle train was slowly backing in
when the engine was struck by the APP
preaching Lake Erie engine The Lake
Erie train was what is known as home
visitors excursion train such the road
runs every fall in conjunction with its con-
Meeting lines. 1t had a baggage and ex-
press car and seven coaches, and was run
ming as Section of regular train No. 122.
The Panhandle train as the regular train
for Chicago. The Lake Erie engine was in
charge of Engineer Kelly, and Engineer
Hutchinson had charge of the Panhandle
engine.
The passengers of the Lake Erie train
were placed on board College-avenue street
cars and brought to the Union Station,
where they were able to make connections
for other points they wished to reach. The
Panhandle train was delayed only long
enough to get another engine Neither the
Pennsylvania nor the Lake Erie officials
will admit that their employees were in the
wrong in the case. An Investigation is be-
ing made which will determine where the
blame should be attached. 1t is the belief
of the trainmen that the air brake of the
Lake Erie train failed TO work, and allowed
the train to run down upon the Panhandle
engine.

OPENED HIS VEINS.
Suicide of o. w. Rowe, n TraveIing
Man, at the Spencer House.

0. w. Rowe, of Washington Courthouse,
O., travelling man, representing a drug
manufacturing concern of Newark N. j.
committed suicide at the Spencer House
Wednesday night by opening the veins of
his wrist. He was found yesterday morn
ing He failed to make his appearance as
usual, and the door was opened 1t was
found that Rowe was dead. He was on the
bed in a half sitting posture and his life
blood had run down and flooded the floor.
About his neck was an improvfsed rope
made Of the bed clothing. 1t had been
drawn over the window casing in an evil
dent attempt 10 hang himself, bat the cas-
ing broke and Rowe had to resort to bleed
ing,
Rowe was well known to the hotel people
at the Spencer House and TO the drug trade
in this city. He had been coming here for
several years few weeks ago on his
last previous trip he showed an inclination
to drink, which was new to him, and Mr.
Lawrence proprietor of the hotel, had him
cared for at ST. Nincent's Hospital A few
Gays ago he returned to the city and
seemed to be himself again. He was look
ing after his trade and there seemed to be
no reason for his suicide.

Murphy, undertakes, and kilograms were

THURSTON AND HAWAII
THE NEBRASKA SENATOR SAYS HE
FAVORS ANNEXATION.
Denies Dispatches Printed Yesterday
Describes the Prosperity Wave
in His own State.

Senator Thurston, Of Nebraska, who is in
the city attending the national encampment
of the Sons of Veterans, was very much
surprised to find a statement in yesterday s
dispatches that he and Senator White, Of
California, would lead the opposition to the
annexation of the Hawaiian islands upon
the floor of the Senate. II am surprised
at the statement" said the senator last
evening, because publicly and privately
in season and out, have been an advocate
of annexation. 1t is possible that the mis-
understanding of my position came about
through the stand 1 took before the Senate
committee on finance upon the subject Of
the Hawaiian sugar clause. We have a
great beet sugar industry in my State and
strongly objected 20 admitting Hawaiian
sugar free, so long as the islands remain
a foreign country but 1 made my position
clear that in case of annexation this OBJ
lection would not hold good. 1 simply main
tanned that so long as the islands remained
a foreign country, that portion of the ex-
listing treaty admitting sugar free should
be abrogated."
Senator Thurston is not little enthus-
iastic about the prospects of his State in
the wave of returning prosperity. 1.-The re-
turn of good times, said he, was felt
in Omaha before the recent rise In agr1-
cultural products to such an extent that /
was able to lay before the Senate, before
it adjourned, editorials from Mr.. Bryan's
own paper there commenting upon the local
boom. The farmers of Nebraska nearly
doubled their wheat acreage this year and
1 think, upon the combined crop OF wheat
and corn our State will stand first this
year. The cereal crops will bring into the
State not less than 800 100000 and this
means plenty of money in circulation, with
better business in all channels of trade.
The official statement shows that during
the last year $2S,000000 of farm mortgages
have been paid off in the State and we
shall make it $50 900. 600 more before an
other year goes by. l think the American
people now fully understand that the 16-to-1
fallacy can never become a serious issue,
and are ready for long period of sub
stantial prosperity, safe in the belief that
there. will be no adverse financial legisla-

Side market question. This opposition has
become so formidable that last night, as Il
bluff, the Democrats introduced an ordi-
nance appropriating Sl2 GOO for a South Side
market. The Board Of Works recommend

mere bluff, as it could not be passed, with
