DEAD BODIES UNDER WRECK.

Reading, Pa, May l3.-Day-
light revealed the horrors of last
nights wreck at Exeter which was
caused hy fast running excursion
train crashing into the rear end of
an express train which had stopped
at Exeter for orders.
4 hig pile of wreckage, splin-
scred timber. twisted irons. broken
ear wheels and axles. tell of the
terrible speed mt which the excur-
sion train was running.
From the ruins have been taken
twenty three bodies. Several of
these were dead and some so bad
ly injured that they have since
died. Beneath the wreckage are
still many mangled remains. The
wrecking crew is working heroic
ally, hoping that some may yet be
rescued aliye.
Who is to blame for the acci-
dent has not yet been ascertained.
1t is said that when Exeter was
reached the engineer of the en-
press saw the board turned against
him. He backed up and received
orders to switch out and pass a
coal tram, but before another start
could be made the excursion train
dashed into the express.

BATTLESHIP KEARSARGE.
Her Trial Trip to Take Place Early
Next Month.

NEWPORT NEWS (Va), Aug. 90
The trial trip of the battleship Kear-
sargewill take place between September
9th and 10Th. The ship is now within
about 4 per cent. of completion and is
sufficiently advanced to warrant the
statement that she will be sent away
from the shipyard on her first trial trip
the early part Of next month. Reports
have been sent out from Washington
to the effect that owing to the delay
caused by a shortage of men during the
yellow fever scare the KearSarge could
not go out until the latter part of Oc-
tober and the Kentucky not until De-
cember, but these had no foundation
The trial trip of the Kearsarge is be-
ing looked forward to with a great deal
of interest. She will be the first war
ship ever built embodying the super
posed turret idea, that is, with the s.
inch turrets over the 13-inch turrets,
enabling the ship as we'll as the Ken
lucky, to concentrate on one point a
far heavier fire in less time than any
other ship af1oat. Captain W. NJ Fol-
ger, who will command the Kearsarge,
has been here for some time superIn-
tending the work on the vessel, and
he will go on her when the trial trip
between the shipyard and the Atlantic
Ocean takes place.
Captain Folger is one of the high au-
thorities in the navy on ordnance,
and his opinion of the success of the
superposed turret idea, after the trial
trip, will be worth something.
The Kearsarge has just received a
coat Of white paint which she will wear
on her trial trip.
The speed of the Kearsarge will also
be watched with interest by naval men.
The contract speed is only Is knots,
but the Newport News ShfpbuiIding
and Drydock Company has thus far
managed to exceed contract speed in
all of it's merchant and Government
contracts, and it is believed the Kear-
sarge and the Kentucky will not be ex-
cepted.
The three little gun boats, the Nash
vile, the Helena and the Wilmington
the best and speediest boats of their
class in the world, all far exceeded the
contract speed. If the Kearsarge makes
in the neighborhood of Z knots an hour
on her official trial many naval men
will not be surprised
The record-union., 1899-08-27

Thomas Hardy, the novelist, is among
those who have been writing to the
papers urging the Government to pur-
chase Stonehenge. An official of the
Antiquarian Society says an American
speculator has already made an offer
with the view of transporting Stone
henge to the United States. A commit
tee supported by the Prince of Wales is
trying to secure for the nation the late
Lord Leighton's house. This is also
threatened, according to rumor, by
American capital. But it is rather be-
lieved that the furore originated in the
shrewd methods of selling agents, who,
wishing to stimulate the market, in
vent reports of American enterprises
while appealing to British patriotism.
This apparently is not meeting with
much practical success, for in spite of
rumorS to the contrary, the famous
Lakes of Killarney are still for sale.

came the men in whose honor and to
the credit of the State all had marched,
the First California Infantry and Cali
fornia Heavy Artillery.
Their escort extended for miles, and
their reception was without precedent.
Red fires blazed on nearly every cor
ner, while rockets and roman candles
pierced the air. All of San Francisco
and half of the State seemed to be on
the streets and every man, woman and
child was waving a flag, blowing horn
or cheering. The bursting of bombs
and the discharge of firecrakers was in
cessant.
During the whole of the parade and
far into the late hours many bands at
intervals played "There'll Be a Hot
Time in the Old Town Tonight" and
there is no one to dispute the fact that
the prediction was fully verified.
Battery D of the First Battalion Cali
fornia Heavy Artillery was visited in
camp at the Presidio to-day by a dele
CATION of relatives and friends from
Southern California, who surprised the
soldiers by the warmth of their greet
ing Colonel A L. Crane of Los An
geles presided at the reception, and
made very brief speech telling of the
object of the gathering.
Judge B. N Smith of the Superior
Court of Los Angeles County followed
with a stirring address.
Then came aged Captain Cameron E.
Thorn, an ex-Confederate and former
Mayor of Los Angeles, whose two sons
are members of the battery, who well
coined the soldiers with a voice that
trembled with emotion.
He was followed by Colonel Blenner
Hassett, also a veteran of the Con-
federate army.
Lieutenant Diss of Battery D paid
a tribute to the good work done by
Mrs. j. M. Griffiths of Los Angeles in
behalf of the organization. The object
of this demonstration was too much
overcome to respond in words. Later
at her request Secretary Anderson
made a short speech in her behalf,
thanking the volunteers for the tribute
paid to her generosity.
Mayor Fred Eaton of Los Angeles,
Captain Clark. formerly chaplain of the
Seventh California Regiment; Major
Rice, commanding the First Battalion.
and Ben Fehnemann made short
speeches, and the Mayor promised the
iastic reception upon their return home
to Los Angeles than they had received
in San Francisco.

why the Black Flag Was Hoisted.

PARIS, Aug. 26.-Mme. Chantaloupe.
whose son is among the besieged per-
sons in the headquarters of the Anti
Semitic League, was allowed to visit
M. Guerin to-day on account of the re-
port of her sons illness. The anti-Sem-
ite President, who appeared to be agi-
tated, opened the door for Nine. Chan
taloupe, and she remained forty min
utes in the stronghold. On returning
to the street she reported that her son
was in a dying condition, hence the
hosting of the black flag this morn
ing
