tsnecial to The aerald.l

Cheyenne, Wye, Oct. 16.-Shortly af-
ter 1 o'clock this morning a fatal rear
end collision occurred near Granite
Canon on the Union Pacific. eighteen
miles west of this city, between an
east-bound express train and stock
special. Two men were killed outright
and three others injured, though not
fatally.
The Dead.
Thomas ]. Parker, Salt Lake City

Harry c. Purple, Norwood, Kan.
The Injured.
Edward Powell, Upton, Utah.
William Sayles. Vermont, Ills.
James Marsh, Laramie, Wyo.
The above persons were asleep in the
caboose of the stock special and receiv-
ed no warning whatever as the express
train dashed around a curve and into
the caboose, before even the trainmen
were aware of its approach. Two dead
men were caught under the locomotive
and their bodies mangled in a horrible
manner.
The injured men were thrown through
the roof of the car and down a high
embankment, together with severa
hundred dead and injured sheep and
piles OF wreckage.
Parker, one of the dead men, was a
prominent sheep-grower of western Wy
oming, but who made his home in Salt
Lake.
Purple was an ex-railroad conductor
and was en- route to Norwood to join
his family.
The cause of the accident has not
been learned. but it is said the conduc-
tor of the stock special did not flag
his train properly. A careful investi
cation is being made.

THAT 20. 100000 PAYMENT.

Contrary to the fear Of many the pay
ment to Spain of the $40, 900, 900 for the
purchase of the Philippines a no in
furious bearing on the money market.
According to Banker Clews the payment
was easily effected and not a ripple of
disturbance was produced in the New
York loan market. In fact the settlement
with Spain was SO easily made that the
$23, 900, 900 stronger in cash resources than
they were before the payment was made
to Spain. The federal treasury, however,
was weaker to about the same extent.
Germany will largely contribute to the
actual cash which may reach Spain in
this settlement, for that country has
the United States in the form of tenn
porary loans which this country has
turned to account as a means of paying
Spain. But as the Rothschilds are un-
derstood to be connected with the Euro
pean end of the settlement it is thought
an arrangement between the bank OF
Spain and the German bank could be
made convenient to both. Thus large
! sums of money may be transferred from
one power to another by bills and other
paper without materially disturbing the
cash resources of either. In fact the

THE MONTANA BOYS.

The Montana boys in the Philippines
will probably be detained there until the
regulars now en- route to Manila arrive,
or the insurgents accept the inevitable
and lay down their arms. Aguinaldo is
evidently sparring for better terms than
unconditional surrender. He will not get
them. In the meantime General Otis
will hold on to the Montana regiment.
He recognizes the fact that it is composed
of brave. accomplishing, unyielding
fighters, who have not taken a backward
step since they left Manila, and whose
place will be hard to fill by any material
he has at hand. y y
Those of the Montana boys who do not
longer care to engage in sprinting after

enjoying their Christmas dinner. They

the very first evening she ordered oysters

real, life-sized oyster, having spent all
her days on the Pacific coast, where oys-
tiers are not oysters at all, but something
altogether different. She was young and
exceedingly inexperienced, and she said
to the waiter:

POSSIBILITIES IN THE FUTURE,

A recent telegram says tina Nikola
Tesla has arrived at Colorado Springs
and has announced that he would at
tempt to send a message from Pixies
Peak to Paris by wireless telegraply be-
fore leaving. He will probably remain
there several months. This announce
mc:it may sound absurd or like vain
Boosting to many, while the credulity Of
the most %sanguine believer n the posi-
bil:ties of the future may be subject to a
severe strain.
predicted that steam would be harnessed
to boats and railroad cars, and that
freight and passengers would be rapidly
transported from place to place by that
agency, he would have been ridiculed and
laughed at. If, seventy-flve years ago,
one had proclaimed that in 1S44, the
would be sent over a wire from Annapo-
lis to Washington, he would have been
pronounced fully ripe for an insane asy-
lum. If he had limited that men in New
| York would talk to others in London over
a wire resting upon the bottom of the
Atlantic ocean, his friends wouid have
been requested to exercise discreet super
vision over his actions.
The sewing machine. the cotton gin and
the loom and spindle came as surprises
to people: so did Harvey's discovery and
Jeaner's vaccination. Tesla will, doubt
less, add a greater surprise to all, when
he talks to the people of Paris, and holds
conversation with the warriors of Mars.
Such achievements are among the pos
sibilities in the future. 1t is surmised by
! the most %sanguine of optimists that
among the possibilities OF the hereafter
will be the taking Of breakfast in San
Francisco, lunching in New York and
dining in London within the rising and
setting of the sun. Air ships will be the
agency, electricity the motive power.
Not a few believe that the time is not
lar ulslaHt WNeH the COol. DTaclnE oZoHe
laden air Of the altitudirous regions OF
the Rocky mountains will be drawn
through underground mains and laterals
to refresh the denizens of our southern
states and that letters and light parcels
will be delivered to our sweltering neigh
bors through the same mediums. 1t is
also thought by not a few that the time
will colue when men and women will no
longer seek divorce courts, when libel
suits will be things CT the past, and the
democratic party will labor for the well
fare Of the people. But those hinkers
trespass upon the domain of the millen-
mum. We shall, not enter it.
