TALES OF THE AWFUL TRAGEDY

Garrison, n. Y. Oct. 25.-The gray
dawn, twenty four hours after the fright
full happening of yesterday. broke upon a
scene OF greater litter and property de-
struction than yesterdays sun. and last
! nights toroblizhts displayed. The weary
gangs of wreckers were relieved early this
morning by fresh ones and the work of
getting the chains upon the submerged
cars was vigorously prosecuted. AS the
wreckage was pulled from the bottom of
the river and placed ON shore, 1t added To
the picturesque, though distressing sight.
When the wreckers got spIlioient tackle
on tho sleeping car Glen ~Alpine to drag
her UP there was much excitement and
speculation, rs il was believed that there
must be some bodies in the oar. when
the car had been placed on the scow ana
the water had run out OF it, careful
searching party went through and TO the
relief OF tho railroad officials and every
body near, not body was discovered.
Some curious things wero discovered
which tend to make the escape OF the
passengers in this car appear almost mi
raoulous. Not only were ali the blankets
and curtains thrown dawn and Jammed
into the front of the car, but the seat
bottoms, which at night act as bed bot
toms the mattresses and pillows ana
every movable thing IN the car had boon
iaInmed from side to side and from end
to end of the car in n manner that would
seem TO almost preclude the posi- bility
OF any person, in the aisles or berths
escaping.
MUST HAVE LEFT EVERYTHING.
Those who did get out, and IL is be-
lieved that all in this car escaped, must
have done SO without attem ptipg To either
dress or seize any baggage. The con-
ditiop OF tho windows show that many
broke out that way. but the mystery is,
now did they get clothing with which to
cover their nakednessy Pairs of trousers
py tho half dozen with suspenaers at
tached, under clothes, shoes, coats and
wnistcoats, women's dresses and under
garments were oil mixed up in an in
uescribablo mass.
A full score of handbags and satchtls
indicate that there may have been that
mum ber of passengers in this car.
some of the people in the vicinity and
tho hotelkeoper in Garrison. say they
lelped dress some of these people. but tho
supposition is that tho majority OF those
who escaped with their lives and not
THAR baggage were taken care OF by the
messengers in the sleepers that remained
on the track, and when taken TO New
York city were provided with clothes by
the railroad people.

QUIET CAMPAIGN.
Continued from Page I.

The Democrats are wisely keeping
quiet, basiug their only hope on the good
standing Of their candidate as citizen.
Ho has no record in municipal affairs
available for presentation as campaign
argument and stands only on PLATFORM
of promises, endorsed only by the Demo
Gratis as representative of what Demo
cracy wants-the offices. The voters are
tired of promises. and the Democracy Is
not in good repute. 10 be sure 20 mem
bers of the Municipal League have
solemnly resolved tat they endorse
the Democratic candidate, but that fools
nobody. Such endorsement Is not An
issue this year. IL was Indeed most
ridiculous assumption TO be classed only
with the famous pronunoiamento of the
Six Tailors of Tooley Street, who began
their address with 1--WE, the People.
Ihe Illumination Of the 20 Muleaguers
has fallen flat and Is only of account in
that it will maze votes for Mr.. kendrick
by reason Of the exposure of the paltry
semblance Of an authoritative act of an
organized body.
The only problem that confronts the
Republicans is the getting out OF the
vote on election day. If anything like
the enthusiasm that pervaded the eau
cuses endures in the ranks OF the tax
payers ana reaches the registry vote,
tremendous outpouring ia favor Of Col.
HENDRICKS s candidacy will be assured.
The getting out OF Ia vote is the mechanics
of politics. There is little doubt as 10
the feeling of the voters but active efforts
may be necessary to tempt them To the
polls at the close of n campaign that is
unmarked by anything In the way OF
loud appeals to the conscience and the
intelligence of the mass of the voters.
Even the ward contests, most Of them,
were settled by the caucuses and that
source of inspiration cannot be counted
upon with assurance for election Cay.
1t is likely that in the last days Of the
week circular matter may be sent around
simply to remind voters of tile duty Of
the hour.
The pondinx election il simply busi-
ness proposition, and it only requires for
its settlement enough OF an awakening TO
% sense of duty to draw the voters to the
polls. With "a good-sized vote, Republi-
cans are confident of success Col. Ken.
bricks strength has been growing from
the day of his enthusiastic nomination.
He cannot be defeated by his political
enemies, Only neglect OF the duty of
citizenship OH the part of the voters can
lose him the election which will then. by
default, 60 to his opponent.
