The Maine Central railway ran ex-
cursions to Bar Harbor from all Sec
tions of it's line in Maine, the attrac-
ton being the warships, which were
expected there. All tho morning long
trains packed with excursionists were
rushing to Bar Harbor. The train
which left Bangor at $40 consisted of
12 cars jammed with people.
The Gang Plank Gave Way.
At Mount Desert ferry, the terminus
of the line, the train is left for the boat
for an Smile sail to Bar Harbor. From
the wharf a slip or gang plank 40 feet
long and 10 feet wide led up to the
boat The slip was hinged at the inner
end and was raised or lowered to suit
the tide. tis said that there was no sup
port for the plank between the hinges
at the outer end. When the excursion
train from Bangor arrived at the ferry
there was q rush for the steamer Sap
pho. The first few passengers had
crossed the gang plank safely and it is
estimated that 200 people were massed
upon the plank. Suddenly they felt the
plank give way beneath them. The
long timber supporting the plank broke
in the middle. The hinges held up one
end and the chain the other, while the
broken ends of the plank dropped, and
q struggling, screaming mass of hui
manity was plunged into the water, Is
feet below the wharf. A few clung to
the inclined sides of the plank, but at
least 15O were struggling in the water.
The piling OF the wharf partially penned
them In on three sides and the boat ly-
ing at the wharf closed the other end of
the opening.
The freight house at the ferry was
turned into morgue, the bodies being
taken there for Identification as fast az
recovered. By noon II had been re-
covered. Three other persons were
taken on board the Sappho and died on
the way to Bar Harbor.

APPEALS TO THE POWERS.

ARuinaldo Asks Recognition Of the Fill
pino Government.
MANILA, Aug. 0.-4:50 p.m.-Aguin-
aldo has appealed to the powers for
recognition of "Filipino independence, /"
in document dated from Tarlac, July
~, and signed by Buencamino. It has
been received by all the foreign consuls
in Manila with the request that they
forward it to their respective govern
ments.
The Filipinos used their old argument
that they had conquered the sover-
eighty of these islands from Spain be-
fore the signing of the treaty of Paris
and, therefore, Spain was in no position
to cede them to the United States.
They argue that the possession Of 1000
Spanish prisoners, captured, with their
arms, fighting against the Filipinos, "is
eloquent proof of the nullity Of Spanish
sovereignty, so when they surrendered
Spain's hold was irrevocably lost"
Reply to tho Spanish Commission.
The document then says: "Replying
to the Spanish commissions requests to
release the prisoners because Spain no
longer has political interests in the
islands, we asked for treaty Of peace
and friendship between Spain aud the
Filipinos, whereby the prisoners would
be released. But, the commissioners
refused, because It would mean a
recognition of our independence. This
is equivalent to saying that the prison.
ers must stay in our hands indefinitely,
because their possession is our most
efficaoious method to adjust our account
with Spain and obtain from her recog-
milton of our independence"
Finally, the Filipinos appeal to the
powers to influence Washington to
bring to termination "the unjust war
which is devastating the country"

VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN

Speedy Cessation Of Hostilities There.
II Fifty Thousand Troops Are Not

PLATTsBURa, N. Y, Aug. 9.-The
war in the Philippines is to be prose.
cuted with vigor that ought to result
in speedy cessation of hostllities there.
The correspondent Of the Associated
Press saw Secretary Of War Root in the
Office of the Hotel Champlain just after
he had said goodby to the president
and was prepared to take the train for
Washington. The secretary referred to
his visit to Plattsburg barracks where
he witnessed regimentsl drill of the
Twenty.sixth volunteers. This regi-
ment has been recruited and organized

veterans.
will the war in the Philippines be
prosecuted vigorously from now ont"
asked the correspondent.
Mr.. Root turned on his heel and re-.
piled quick as flash:
eyes, sir; the war in the Philippines
from now on will be prosecuted with
all possible energy. All the men, all
the arms and all the supplies necessary
to end the trouble in the islands will be
furnished at the earliest possible mo.
ment."
Will Have Fifty Thousand Men.
"How largo force will be at the dis.
posal of the commanding general
there?" was asked.
"There will be 50, 900 men there ready
for active service at the close of the
rainy season by the last of October and
more will be sent there if necessary"
With reference to the rumors pub
lished in some papers that President
Mckinley and he could not agree upon
a policy to be pursued in the Philip
pines, Mr.. Root said:
"Of course that is all nonsense"
Asked as to prospective change of
commanders in the Philippines Mr..
Root said he could not say anything on
that at the present.
It Is gathered that there will be an
energetic campaign in the Philippines.
Mr.. Root seldom talks for publication
and the fact that he had just come
from the president gives his utterancea
added significance.
