heavier. but they fell through to the south
on a parallel to the side of the building

cause of the accident is not known. One
theory which received some support is
that a shifting of the sand beneath the
foundation caused the collapse of the

The work of rebuilding will commence

loss will not fall upon the Coliseum Com
pany, which is erecting the structure. The
only loser will be the Pittsburg Bridge
Company. The Company's loss is estl-
mated at S25 900. The Coliseum will lose
indirectly financially through ina blllty to
arrange for attractions during the com
ing winter season. The unfinished bulld-
ing occupied the ground on the east side
of Wabash avenue, between Fourteenth
and Sixteenth streets, on which Libby
Prison formerly stood. The structure was
304 feet long by 172 feet wide and when
completed would have been 50 feet high
1t was designed for the accommodation
of large conventions, eXpositions, circuses,
football games and other affairs of great

A singular fatality has attended all
buildings in Chicago called coliseum.
The first TO be erected stood on Sixty
third street, and like the present Coliseum
it collapsed while being built in the fall of
1894 The side walls Of the building had
been erected and eleven steel arches had
been put in place 1t was desirable that
it should be speedily finished and the
work was pushed night and day. 1t was
the custom of the contractor to allow
his men time for lunch between n:5O and
midnight During this half hour, while
all the men were absent, all the arches
fell TO the ground, injuring nobody, but
causing q property loss of about $50 900

built The accident to-day brought the
third Coliseum down, which will he re-

The only friendly natives I found on
my southern tour were those at Moros,
who so far are unwilling that we should
hold any territory except the single
walled town of Jolo. Even the non
combatants hate us. In Manila the ma
tive feeling against us is growing
stronger every day. Taxes are higher
in Manila than under Spanish rule and
the inhabitants bitterly complain. Liv-
ing expenses have doubled. The native
police have been discharged and Ameri-
cans appointed, whose administration
is tyrannical and inefficient because
they are ignorant of the language and
not familiar with the perpetrators of
crime.
Murders and robberies, the old in
habitants say, are more numerous than
ever before. Taxes and customs duties
are being used to support the army in
stead of being applied to municipal ne

COLLISION
Monterey Flyer Ditched to
Prevent Heavy Loss
of Life.
ENGINEERS ESCAPE
Man Who Saved the Trains Struck
by Flying Debris, but Not
Seriously Injured.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

X AN JOSE, Aug. 2S-Quick action
on the part of Brakeman Beachler
of the narrow-guage train averted
~ horrible railway accident at
Santa Clara to-day. AS it is. two
monster engines are piled one upon the
other in ditch beside the track and
the baggage-car is wrecked.
The nOrthbound Monterey Flyer,
nearly an hour behind time, which
leaves here at 9:12 for San Francisco,
was derailed at the crossing of the
broad and narrow gauge tracks at
Santa Clara this morning to prevent it
from crashing into the narrow gauge
passenger train bound for this city.
Rules are strict in regard to stops be-
ing made at a crossing. The Flyer was
drawn by double-header and was at
tempting to make up time The mar
roW-gauge passenger had just left the
Santa Clara depot Brakeman Beach
Ter went ahead to turn a switch and had
entered the semaphOre house and made
the switch. The signal was given to
the narrow gauge to come ahead.
Beachler looked up the track and saw
the Flyer coming. He signaled to
Engineer James Stanley of the narrow
gauge to stop and the engineer re-
versed his train and started back.
There was only one thing to do to
prevent a collision and Beachler acted
quickly. He opened the switch and de-
rallied the Monterey train. Both en-
gines left the track, followed by the
combination express and mail car and
the forward truck of the baggage
Engine 1877 was ahead in charge of
Engineer Fred Simpson and Fireman
ConselI. and engine 1872 which followed
was manned by Engineer Fred Stewart
and Fireman Judd. AS soon as the en-
gineers saw the signal to stop they re-
versed their engines, but it was too late
to stop the heavy train. They set the
air-brakes and jumped, escaping with
only a few scratches and a general
shaking up. The passengers were
nearly thrown from their seats by the
sudden jar. but none We're injured.
Engine 1877 went in the ditch and
rolled over on its back and the one be-
hind climbed right up on top of it.
There they lay locked in a death-like
embrace.
Brakeman Beachler as he left the
signal house was struck by flying tim
bers and injured about the head. He
was picked up unconscious and brought
to this city His injuries are not seri-
Gus. His first inquiry was Did
1 have my fag?" showing that he had
thought to save life by throwing the
switch. Trains were delayed for sew
eral hours, but the wreckers now have
the track clear.
Four years ago bad wreck occurred
between passenger trains at the same
crossing. At that time many persons
were seriously injured. Engineers
Stewart and Stanley who were on to-
days trains were in that wreck, the
latter being nearly killed. Another CO.
incidence is the fact that the numbers
of both wrecked engines began with

Senor Grullon, the recipient of the

There is no question in my mind as
to the truth of this cablegram. Mr..
Osmun Le Marche is an agent of the

Senior Grullon said: $50 far as my
plan has been considered, it is safe To-
say that for the present some provi-
sional government will be established
until the general election is held. I
know certainly that General Jiminez
will not assume any Office until he is
chosen at an election by the people.
He wants to be the popular choice He
does not want to ride into office by
force or by any sudden coup. He will
wait for the election and he will be tri-
umphantly elected. The people want
him. General Jiminez is not a profess
sional revolutionist. He is known in

They continued their quarrel until be-

said, Chaudfoze seized a shotgun and
fired at Delbaty. The load of buckshot
took effect in Delbaty's right groin and
