MAN CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT.
TRAFFIC DELAYED SEVERAL
HOURS AND ALL TRAINS LATE.

About $40 o'clock this morning a
head-on wreck occurred m the Della
ware division of the p, w. & b. rail-
road at Broad Creek, near Seaford,
which resulted in completely demolish-
ing engines Nos 81 and 1856.
1t appears that freight train known
as No. 81 was coming north with about
twenty loaded cars. and engine No. 1856.
attached to the construction train.
made up of several cars, was going
south.
1t is said that through carelessness
OF the operator and the switchman az
Seaford the switch was left open and
the two engines. which were running
lat high rate of speed in order to
make up lost time, crashed together.
When the engineers saw their peril
the thrOttles were Immediately re-
versed. Then, seeing that a collision
was inevitable. the fremen and engi-
'neers of botn engines jumped for their
lives.
The engines came together with such
force that they were completely de-
molished and several freight cars were
derailed.
Traffic on this portion of the road
was completely blocked. The wreck
ing crew from Clayton was dispatched
for Immediately, and was upon the
scene in less than two hours and was
engaged nearly all day in clearing
away the wreckage.
During the clearing of the tracks all
trains were late, and train No 90,which
left the French street station at S.13,
was run from Seaford to Laurel over
the Cambridge and Seaford road. and
thence to Salisbury, Nd, over the c.,

membership for the preceding year had
been about LOO, and it was thought that
nearly half that many would certainly mani
fest sufficient interest to be present at the
annual meeting, but when it occurred there
were only ninety-fi five on hand to pass upon
the question of renewal of allegiance to the
cause OF Samson. Among them were less
than half a dozen of the men to whom the
knights organization always looks for the
most material financial assistance. But the
few present decided to go ahead, and the
result has attested the wisdom of their de-
cision.
The retail merchants and citizens gener-
ally appear to be anxious to render their
full assistance Invitations are now being
sent out by the Commercial club for ban
quet to be rendered the board of govern
ors of the knights Of Ak-Sar-Ben next
Tuesday evening at the rooms of the club,
which will doubtless mark the opening of
the canvass for aid for next year. The eX-
preston is everywhere heard that Omaha,
having brought these annual demonstrations
to such perfection, can hardly afford to al
low the order to disband and It's splendid
festivals to be discontinued.

corner of Twelfth and Howard streets. COW
ering an area of sSx132 feet. Mr. Calm
comes to supervise the conversion CT the
structure into building suitable for whole

Mr. Calm arrived in Omaha Monday and
expects to remain here another week He Is
favorably impressed with the push and prog
ress manifested on every hand in this city.
Ten years ago he visited Omaha, and the
improvement which he notes now, as COM
pared with the city he visited at that time,
has caused him to marvel at the enterprise
of the west Mr.. Calm has further invest
ments in mind and believes that Omaha
future is particularly bright.
In speaking of the relation of the west to
eastern investors, Mr.. Calm stated: II have
no fears of ever regretting the money which
| have invested in this city. 1t is true that
we do not hear much of Omaha or Nebraska
back in Boston. About the only thing we
ever hear of this country is that Nebraska
is the home OF Bryan. | don't think that
fact reflects any especial credit upon the
state. ! live In city and in state whlch
has little sympathy with free silver and

a long time before he will ever become pres
ident on the issue which he has taken up
Tho east is solid in its opposition to cheap
money. We are firm believers in sound
money Boston Is democratic town and we
always elect democratic mayor, but the
majority Of the democrats there are believers
in sound money and when it comes to di-
rect issue on this question we are compelled

you, add to the confidence of eastern capi-

; SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.

Word comes from Oregon. through an ex-
change, that the horse abattoirs at Dallas
have opened up a new and profitable IN
dustry to the Indians of the northwest.
These horse packers pay the Indians $3.50
per day as soon as the horses are loaded,
the result being a general cleaning up of
these almost useless animals. returned
traveller says:
"The. Indians are in their glory when
they are driving band of horses compris-
ing several hundred head They ride around
the herd whooping and yelling, driving the
animals iE great style. If they can only
induce some one to give them few swallows
Of alcohol they are in the seventh heaven
OF delight. Many picturesque scenes are
presented when the Indians are rounding
up the horses, and more excited men are
seldom met with among the aborigines.
Proud as newly-appointed policemen, they
fly about with dignity thrown to the
winds"
From other sources it is learned that
the packing OF horse meat is getting to
be quite an industry in the northwest, and
especially in Oregon, where vast herds OF
wild horses roam the hills and valleys. The
flesh OF the horse is canned similar to beef
and is shipped to foreign countries, where it
is considered a great relish Horses in
the northwest sell for little or nothing, and
the Indians consider that tney are getting
big money for their stock when they sell
at $3.50 per head.
Large quantities of canned horse meat are
shipped to Belgium and France, where the
demand almost exceeds the supply.
