Cortege-EIeVen Persons w ounded.
Havana, Dec. 14.-When funeral
procession which was escorting the
hearse containing the remains of Jesus
Sotolongo, who was killed Sunday
night, reached the corner of Infanta
and San Jose streets yesterday vio-
lent affray took place between members

standing in the hospital portico, refused
to remove their hats when requested
to do so by persons in the procession.
Thereupon the Cubans, 1t is alleged,

A Switch Causes Trouble at the BOS0n
Run COlllery.
NO PERSON SUSTAINED INJURY
The Engine Crashed Into Chutes Under the
Breaker and Was Badly Crippled.
Several of the Chutes Were
Torn From Their Places.

There was an exciting event at the Boston
Run colliery breaker at about four o'clock
this morning, when an engine crashed into
the supports of the structure. and barely
missed causing great damage.
A freight train from Mahanoy Plane
stopped near the collery and the engineer
hauled four box cars to the place to be loaded
with coal for the western trade. After
placing these cars on the turnout the engi.
neer started out to return TO the train and
proceed on his journey along the main line.
He supposed, in starting, that he was on the
right track and did not notice that the switch
had been misplaced. 1t was not until he was
within few feet of the large doors which
inclose the chutes that the engineer saw that
he was going under the breaker He re.
versed the engine and threw himself upon
the floor Of the cab, as the speed at which
the engine was going was too great to admit
of immediate stOppage, or avoid a collision Oi
some kind The engineer remained pros
trate, awaiting the crash 1t followed within
few moments. The engine crashed against
the chutes under the breaker and there was a
shower of timbers. iron and coal.
An investigation after the crash showed
that the smoke stack of the engine was
wrecked, the cab was badly damaged and
the injector pipe was torn off The engineer
escaped with few cuts and bruises on his
head. Several of the chutes were torn out,
but otherwise the breaker sustained no dam.

BRYAN AND

Declares Our Country Cannot Endure
"Half Free and Half VaSSal."
RESIGNED TO RESUME TALKING.
The Defeated Presidential. Candidate Now
on His Way to Washington to Fight
Against a colonial Policy, Al
though He Favors Ratifying
the Peace Treaty.

Savannah, Ga, Dec. 14-Colonel W
mand yesterday, the Third Nebraska
regiment gave the following interview:
My reason for leaving the army
was set forth in my letter to the adju-
tant general rendering my resignation.
Now that the treaty of peace has been
concluded, 1 believe that l can be more
useful to my country as a civilian than
a soldier.
THE people of the United States,
having rescued Cuba from foreign con-
troll may now resume the discussion
of the domestic problems which con-
front this nation and to the considera-
ton of the new questions arising out of
the war
Il may be in error. but in my judg-
ment our nation is in greater danger
just now than Cuba. Our people de-
Tended Cuba against foreign arms; now
they must defend themselves and their
country against a foreign idea-the
colonial idea Of European nations.
Heretofore greed has perverted the
government and used its instrumental
interferences for private gain, but now
IHe very louuudllOD principles OL Oul
government are assaulted.
THE imperialistic idea is directly an
tagonistic to the idea and ideals which
have been cherished by the American
people since the signing of the declara
tion of independence. Our nation mus
give up any intention Of entering upor
colonial policy (such as is now pur-
sued by European countries) or 1t must
abandon the doctrine that governments
: derive their just powers from the con-
sent of the governed. This nation can
not endure half republic and half colony
half free and half vassal Our form
of government, our traditions, our pres
ent interests and our future welfare all
forbid our entering upon a career Of
conquest"
Colonel Bryan favors ratifying the
treaty of peace and then dealing with
the subject in our own way" He left
last night for Washington and intends
to enter actively into the fight against
a colonial policy.
