CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT.
General Superintendent Swigart Makes a
Statement.

Philadelphia, May 13.-General Super
intendent SWigart of the Reading rail-
road gave out a statement this after
noon in which he places the number
killed in the wreck near Exeter at %,
and those injured at So In his state
ment Mr.. Swigart says:
The cause of the accident was the
pulling out of drawbar on a coal train
which was taking a side track at Birds
boro to allow the first section of the
express to pass. On account of this
draWbar having pulled out considerable
time was consumed in coupling up the
coal train, and it did not clear the
track No. - (first section) left Read
ing three minutes late and ran by the
block at Exeter the entire length of the
train. but Immediately backed the
length of the train while the conductor
was receiving his orders at the tele-
graph office. The block ahead then be-
ing clear, the train started, and just as
1t was leaving the second section col
hded with the rear of the train. The
engine of the second section telescoped

and stopped with the front end of the
engine in the Pullman car The front
end of the Pullman car was also crusn-
ed in by the car ahead. The first car of
the second section was damaged to
some extent, as was the car next to it.
The engine of the second section was
badly damaged"

ENGINEERS VERSION.
Many Narrow Escapes From Death in the
Wreck.

Philadelphia, May 13.-Three cars of
the Inflated section which crashed into
the first section of the cannon BALI
express train at Exeter last night ar
rived here at Ais o'clock this morn
ing. The second train was composed
of six day coaches, but three of them
were badly wrecked in the collision.
When the three cars which arrived
here left the scene Of the wreck they
carried a large number of the injured
and others who escaped injury. Some
of the injured were taken off at Potts
town and Is We're removed to the hos
pitals at NorristoWn. While the train
was standing at the latter place two
of the injured died before they could
be removed. Their names were not
learned.
When the train arrived here Harry
Orrell, the ensl. .eer of the second train,
and his fireman, w. l.. Everett, both
of whom were hurt were on board
There were also on the train half a
dozen of the uninjured passengers, all
residents of this city.
Day was just breaking when the train
came to standstill and many rail-
road men were awaiting it's arrival
The railroad employees were warmly
congratulated on their escape from
death. AS the oil-begrimed men
shook hands, tears came to the eyes
of many of them. Orrell had been re-
ported dead, but the only injury he re-
ceived was a bad scalp wound. His
head was bandaged and blood covered
his face, hands and clothing. The fire.
man was slightly injured about the
back.
In an interview with a reporter of
the associated press Orrell said he
could not account for the accident. He
said
I'VE left Reading a little late. We
were going at the rate of between 35
and 40 miles an hour, and everything
appeared to be all right Just before
reaching Exeter there is a curve. After
we had rounded it and had straighten-
ed out, I was Mortified to see loom up
a few hundred yards ahead the first
section. l instantly reversed the lev
er, but before I could stop the engine
we went into the rear of the train
ahead with a terrible crash. My en-
gine plowed through the day coach,
which in turn crashed half way through
the Pullman parlor car. The impetus
of the collision sent the parlor car half
through the day coach in front of it.
I did not know where I was for time
but finally discovered myself imprison-
ed among the twisted iron, splintered
wood and broken glass. How I escap-
ed without more serious injury l can
not tell. I do not know how many are
dead and injured, but they tell me the
number is large"

Every seat in the rear coach Of the
first section, in which most of the killed
were riding, was occupied. Some of the
passengers heard the loud whistling of
the approaching engine of the second
section and attempted to escape from
the car, but in vain. 1t was stated that
10 minutes after the regular train left it
was learned that the coal train which
was running ahead had not yet cleared
the main track, and the train dis
patcher decided to send a precautionary
order to the express at Exeter and the
operator at that place was notified. He
Immediately put up the 'order signal"

Secretary of State Patrie and Treasurer
Rice arrived at Wardner to-day The
attorney general will remain until the
end of the trials of the strikers. The
governor will probably remain some
time. Coroner France has examined
nearly 60 witnesses and expects the in
vestigation will last one or two weeks
longer. The union men are still disposed
to fight every effort of the military and
state officials to squelch that organiza-
tion and many expect an open rupture
when the order against employing men
without permits goes into effect next
week. The opinion by many is that the
Canyon Creek miners cannotbe repla ced
with non-union miners while the pres
ent population remains at Burke and
Gem. The disposition Of the union
sympathizers there, practically the
whole population, is one of the gravest
questions confronting the authorities,
and. as far as the public knows, no at
tention has yet been given it.

CLASH WAS AVERTED.
Dispute Concerning the Jurisdiction of
Two Courts

"i"Peso SoASoAhihS ihe OF
Two Courts.
Cincinnati, Ohio. May 13.-A threat
ened clash between the United States
court, Judge Walter Evans, presiding,
in Covington, Ky, and the state court
Judge Hodge of Newport, KY, was
averted to-day. The dispute over the
powers of the two courts grew out of
the Houston divorce case. Houston was
committed to Jail yesterday by State
Judge Hodge for contempt in not an
swering for failing to pay alimony to
his divorced wife. Houston had filed
in the United States court a petition
in bankruptcy and Judge Evans of the
United States court had issued a re-
straining order forbidding interference
with Houston's property.
Houston was to-day produced before
Federal Judge Evans on a writ of ha-
beas corpus and arguments in the case
began.
Judge Evans released Houston from
imprisonment and issued a rule return
able Tuesday morning next requiring
Mrs. Houston and Theodore Hallam
her attorney, to appear and show cause
why they should not be punished for
contempt of court in interfering with
the restraining order.

NO PANIC.
The Stocks Held by Flower Were Not
Thrown the Market

The Stocks Held by Flower Were Not
Thrown on the Market.
New York, May 13.-The body of Ros-
well P. Flower was brought to this city
from Eastport, l.. l., early this morn
. ing on special train. It was accom-
panied by Mrs. Flower, her daughter.
Mrs. Taylor, the former governors s
nephew, Frederick Flower, and Thomas
and p. S. Allen, the family physician.
The funeral will probably take place
next Monday in this city. The inter-
ment will be at Watertown, N. Y, in
the Flower family lot. Mrs. Flower is
prostrated. There was a constant
stream of visitors at the house all the
morning. Anson r. Flower, head of the
firm of Flower & company, said to-
day:
Governor Flower had no stocks on
hand other than those which he held
for investment. These stocks were
paid for and will not be placed on the
market. They represent the property
which Governor Flower believed in and
which we will hold for investment as
Governor Flower intended. His death
should have no effect so far as his or
Flower & company's holdings are con-
cerned. Our properties are all doing
WELL"
Later in the day A. r. Flower said
the firm had been overwhelmed with
offers of assistance from some of the
larger financial firms. No names were
mentioned, but it is believed the Rock
efellers and that some of the presidents
of the larger banks and trust COM
panies offered to lend Flower e. Com
pany any sum required. All these Of
fers were declined with the statement
that the firm did not need money. Rus
sell Sage said of Mr.. Flower:
L have known Mr. Flower foS 20
years. His integrity was unquestioned.
His word was worth 81 100000 at any
time. I don't think that it will be
found, however, that he was worth
more than $5000,OOO or $4,000, O00 He
had good business associates who will

Saws He Is Innocent.

Oakesdale, Wash, May 13.-In the
Rourke- Fisher warehouse matter all par
ties interested seem to be waiting further
developments. Fisher returned to Oakes-
dale yesterday. His friends declare he is
innocent of any wrong. 1t is reported
here that Rourke & Co. still have possess
sion of a large percentage of the wheat
shipped to Portland and that by disposing
of this all claims can be paid in full. One
report has it that the company has 1876. 900
bushels of wheat at Portland. In the
meantime farmers and those who have ad-
vanced money on wheat are far from san
guine. Serious legal complications and
expensive litigation is threatened if the
matter goes into the courts.
