THE WORK OF FlENDs.
Tramps Throw Open Switch and Wreck q
Train.

Syracuse, N. Y, Sept. la special to
the Herald from Fulton says:
Train No. 5, on the New York, Ontario
and Western railroad, known as 'the
Chicago Limited" was wrecked at ingalls,
crossing. miles south of this village, at
5 o'clock this morning
The wreck was doubtless due to the
dastardly work Of tramps, who threw
open the switch at which the train was
wrecked, as well as two switches at the
north of The wreck.
1t was an hour and quarter late and
running 90 miles an hour when it struck
the switch and was thrown over to the
side track.
The rapid speed made it impossible to
make sharp turn and the train left the
track when it struck the safety rail.
The engine was thrown twenty feet and
blown to pieces.
The tender was Inverted. The trucks
OF the baggage car were torn of ana the
head coach telescoped the baggage car.
A vestibuled chair-car and the sleeper
Farragut were derailed but neither, was
badly damaged. Engineer Dowd ana nfe-
man Hall jumped and were found under
wreckage of the tender by passengers
from the sleeper. Both were alive at the
time but both died in few minutes al
ter 8 o'clock. The body of brakeman
Osborne was torn in two.
These were the only killed. Eleven
were injured

Fears Entertained for General Kitch
ssfei
euer. dN

London, September 1.-Great Britain
is beginning to be alarmed lest the fate
of Hicks Pasha has befallen the Anglo
Egyptian army under the Sirdar, Gener-
al Sir Herbert Kitchener. The last news
received, was telegraphed from the front
on Monday night. The army was twen-
ty-three miles from Omdurman, the
Dervish camp near Khartoum. where the
Khalifa was reported to be waiting with
100000 warriors, we'll equipped with field
guns.
General Kitchener's force consisted of
ten thousand British troops and fifteen
thousand Egyptian blacks, the most
perfectly equipped force the government
has ever put in the field, having plenty
of horse artillery and Maxim guns. 1t
was planned to keep constant communi-
cation with the base by field telegraph
hence the fears that in spite of the su-
periority of morals and accoutrements,
the Anglo-Egyptian force may have
been overwhelmed by numbers.
The government officers officially an
nounce confidence in the outcome of the
engagement but privately they do not
conceal their nervousness at the lack OF
tidings from the front.

WILD RUMOURs AFLOAT.
Paris Was Filled With Them
Yesterday.

One Was That Dreyfus Was Dead and
Another That Col. Clam.was Arrested
Latter Now In Switzerland.
Paris, September 1.-THE Dreyfus case
tonight presents no new features. but
there is plentiful supply of rumors. The
first OF these Is that Dreyfus is dead, no
letter having been received from him
for some weeks.
Another report is that Gen. De Bois-
deffre, who has just resigned the post OF
chief of the general staff, has committed
suicide. Both these rumors are undoubt-
edly without foundation.
Col. Du Patty Clam is on vacation
trip in Switzerland and there is no
confirmation of La Patrie that he had
been arrested for completely in the
Henry forgery.
Gen. Gonss, assistant chief of the gen :
eral sta, ,f who rendered his resignation
yesterday to NJ. Cavaignac, minister Of
war, has bssn persuaded to withdraw u.
as his retirement Under the age limit will
occur next month.

THE BATH OEFALCATlON,
Duties Paid on Imported Wool Said to
Have Been FaIsified,

| Bath, September 1.-The Times hears
that good portion of the money taken By
=. II. Twitchell was obtained by increasing
the actual amount of duty paid to the gov
ernment of imported wool and also In the
| purchase OF wool from time to time. Mr.
Moses, although treasurer of the Worum
bo, allowed Mr.. Twitchell to sign
the checks in his (Mr. Moses') name but
the initials Of MIR. Twitcheu were al
ways annexed.
Much Of the money appropriated by
Mr.. Twitchell went into poor invest
ments.
The first amount, about $500, was taken
10 years ago for this purpose. 1t was an.
nounced yesterday that the discrepancy
in Mr.. Twitchelll's accounts would Le to
the extent of 100000, but a larger
amount may be the case.
Mr. Twitchell said yesterday that he
never would return to this city to make
his home, but would seek other fields.
Regarding his assignment to H. M.
Heath of Augusta, MIR. Twitchell said
the paper had been drawn up but not re-
corded.
Mr.. Tw itchell left this city yesterday
afternoon on the 5 o'clock boat for his
summer home at Popham beach where he
will remain for the present. Nothing
has been done about Furnishing Mr..
Twitchell and it is generally believed that
nothing will te done in that direction.
This matter will come up at the next
meeting of the directors of the Worumbo
company.
Naturally the upheaval of the financial
system here in Bath frightened for time
many persons connected with the pig
Worumbo mills at Lisbon Falls. Every
thing tends to prove, however, that this
Institution ia perfectly sound and will not
be affected at all by the failure of the past
few days or Mr.. TwitohelPs embezzle-
ment.
The latter took the money from time to
time and it has served to reduce the
profits in the past only.
There was little excitement at first
among the employees at Lisbon Falls when
they heard Of the crash of Mr.. Moses. 1t
seems that the WoruIubo company main
tain sort Of savings institution in con-
nection with their big business wher
employees can leave their wages and draw
five per cent interest. Thus some OF the
hot headed employees advocated the re-
moval Of their money.
Since the Worum bo company assured
their employees that they need ha We no
fear ana that they could have their
money at once If they desired the anxiety
has nearly all abated. Some S25, 900 the
employees have on deposit.
This forenoon Mr.. g. G. Moses received
the following from tho selling agents of
the Worumbo mills in New York:
New York, September 1, 1898.
To g. @. Moses, Bath, Me.
If the Worumbo wants one hundred
thousand dollars we will be glad to send
1t.
DEERING. MILLIKEN & co.
Mr.. Moses replied at onoe that no
money was needed.

Both the Schooner's Masts, Her Bowsprit
of the seamen Injured But Not seri-
ousIy.
Bosto n, September 1.-Shortly after
noon today the four inasted British steam
ship Columbian, Capt. Masters, from
London, steamed up the harbor. having in
tow the dismasted fishing schooner Ella
M. Doughty of Portland. The Columbian
collided with the schooner atsl1 p. m,
Tuesday about $50 milesiesst Of Boston
lightscarrying away both Of the schoon-
er's uiasts together with her bowsprit and
jibboom. The hull of the vessel, however,
is still intact. The collision occurred dur
ing dense fog and go far as can be
learned was unavoidable The iron bow
of the big steamer struck the schooner a
glancing blow on the starboard bow, but
the shock was SO severe that both her
masts were unstepped and her howsprit
knocked of. The Ella NJ. Doughty, which
is owned by Sargent, Lord Il Skillings of
Portland, was swordfshing and had So
cured but three fish when the disaster oc-
ourred. Immediately after the collision
the Colum bian was. stopped and prepara-
tions were made to rescue the crew Of the
vessel, which, was supposed to be In q
sinking condition. When 1t was found
that there was no danger Of her founder
ing arrangements were made to tow her
into port. On arriving in the harbor the
big liner was relieved of her tow BY the
tug Atlas, Capt. Hollywood, which towed
the dismasted vessel to an anchorage en-
the flats. 8
The captain came ashore to note protest
and communicate with her ownerR When
the spars of the fishing schooner went by
the board one Of the crew was injured on
the back and arms. The injuries, howev-
er, were not serious and 1t was not neces-
sary to transfer the seaman to the hospf-
tai. The schooner IL commanded by Cap
tain Warren A. Doughty, who is part
owner in the vessel.
Captain Masters of the Columbian says
that the collision was entirely unavoidn-
BILE so far as the steamer was concerned.
