ed unconscious by being thrown
against passenger car window.
STORY OF THE WRECK.
The collision was the most serious
one that has occurred on the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad within the
limits of this city. Baltimore ac-
commodation train No. 12l, due at
Delaware Avenue station at 7. q
o'clock, and an extra freight train
going south were the trains in col
lision. The freight train was made
up of so loaded cars drawn by en-
CINE No. 15i7, in charge of II. A.
milford, of Baltimore. c. e. Cal
mon, of Baltimore. was conductor.
Engineer milford was hurrying
down the road totake the side track
at Delaware Avenue station, to al
low the accommod alton train, which
was a few minutes behind time, to
pass him. He had brought his To-
connective to a stop below the station
and was preparing to cross to the
north bound track, when the accom-
mediation tram smashed into his ca
bose, demolishing the cab and
throwing it from the track. The
end of loaded coal car was knock
ed out and its contents scattered
across both tracks. Conductor Cal
mon and several Of the train crew
were in the caboose at the time of
the collision and Notwithstanding
the fact that the car W as overturned
they were unini ured.
John Way. of Baltimore, was en-
gineer of the accommodation engine
No. S55 and William Galloway, of
Philadelphia, was conductor. En-
gineer Way says he was moving at
the usual rate of speed and when
the freight train ahead of him
stopped to cross the switch, it was
done so suddenly that he could not
bring his train to standstiil. The
impact was not so great, as the To-
connective was not damaged, other
than having her pilot smashed. The
conclusion, however, caused the in
juries received by the four victims.
HOW THEY WERE INJURED.
Engineer Way was thrown against
the side of his cab and injured
his shoulder quite severely.
Conductor Galloway was also
thrown against the side of car
and received a severely lacerated
hand by pushing it through a win
dow.
John NJ. Lacey, passenger. who
was on his way from Philadelphia,
was seriously injured. He was in
the smoking car, directly back OF
the engine and the shock hurled

Power to Reach all
Classes of People.

not reach all classes Of people, said Bishop
Of Delaware ut the opening session Of the
fourth annual conven lon Of the Archdua.
conary OF Dover, at Christ Church
The Bishop was making the closing re.
marks to DR.. Il. Gardner Lttelps strong
Characterization Of Loyalty to the Church
which was the last of three fine addresses.
Ths Bishop followed DR.. Little's expert
enccs Of the work among the lowly and
forsaken 10 New York. In which the BIZ
hop was engaged in 1900. and in which
work DR.. Litte,l has recently entered.
Frequently condemned prisoners or con.
v cts about to be put to death were
b olght to the feet OF the saviour by tfe
powerful messages from the church
adapted for their peculiar conditions.
The Bishop referred to the great States
that now are soothing and foaming. as 1t
w,re, in tho midst OF election exciI m mt,
and longed for II manifestation of on,
tenth Of that loyalty to church that was
shown to political party, and which was so

Civ Court Cases

Before Julgc Bal in the city court this
morning James Ward was charged with
disordcrlv conduct. Mrs. Eliza Ward te;-
tijed that her son will not work and
spends his time lounging around the sa-
looms. She has cautioned tho saloon keep
er5 not to sell liquor to him but they pny
no heed to the warning As result the

On Tuesday night his conduct wa, un-
baarhb!e and not only did ho break tho

day in an intoxicated condition. During
the course OF thu hearing Ward spoke sew
eral times in surly manner to his mother
The court Informed Mrs. Ward that it
was her duty to notify the law and other
society in regards to the saloon keepers
and thai they will lose their license. They

DIAMOND STEEL
cos. PLANT.
A Permit Granted To-day
to Erect One-Half the y
Mammoth Concern.

Building Inspector Cassidy issued
a permit today to w. w. Lindsay
g. Co., to build the open hearth steel
furnaces for the Diamond Steel
Company. The building will be
115x437 feet and will be only one
half of the mammoth building that
the company will erect. A force Of
men is now at work digging the
foundation for the additional build
ing. The new plant will mean an
additional force of men to be em-
ployed.
Few people, who have not ac-
tually run blast furnace, realize
what it means to fill the capacious
nav of one of these monsters. A
stack of POO tons daily capacity,
running on so per cent ore, must
have delivered it to each day some
thing more than 40 tons of ore, $50
to 300 tons of coke, and over 100
tons of limestone, besides and, coal
and minor supplies-say 900 tons
raw materials. Add the POO tons
of pig iron product shipped out and
we have a daily freight movement of
LOO tons, taking no note of the dis
position of the Stag. The mining of
the ore requires the labor of $50 to
800 men; the coal mining. coke maxi
ing, quarrying of limestone and
transportation, at least 300 .more.
The furnace itself employs about
$50 or more hands. Starting up
furnace of ordinary capacity there
fore, calls Immediately for the labor
of nearly 1000 men; for the use of at
least 1000 railway cars and many
locomotives; for perhaps several
steamers and vessels; for capital
from the mines to the pig iron, of
81, 200, 900 to s., 900, 900 and last, but
not least. for a high order of manag-
inr ability,
