BOUGHT BY THE PRESIDENT.
The Famous "McKinIey Cottage
Once More in the Hands of
Those Who Love 1t.

Canton. o., Aug. 7.-President Nc
Kinley has purchased the famous ''NIc-
Kinley cottage" at the corner of
North Market street and Louis avenue.
The deal was closed Saturday. The
consideration was $14.5OO. The papers
have passed. He will secure possess
sion of the contract and deed October
next.
The property was not in the market.
1t was endeared to president and Mrs.
Mckinley IS their first home, where
they began housekeeping and by tend
er memories of sorrows there.
The lot is 100 feet front on Market
street. by 244 on Louis avenue.
The front veranda shows the most
wear from the historic campaign of
1896, when the noted home was the
political Mecca for nearly a million
people.
Before leaving Canton for the inau-
guration President Mckinley tried TO
buy the home made doubly dear 10
him. 1t is not believed that Mrs.
Hartes would have sold the place 10
anyone else.
1t is believed to he the presidents
intention to spend a part of each sum-
mer in Canton. The interior of the
house has always been roomy and cool
and comfortable. it is thought posi-
ble that the president may renovate
the house and make improvements.

THE UPRISING OF THE YAOUIs.
and Prolonged and Bloody
War Expected.

Austin, Texas. Aug. IA special re-
ceived here yesterday from TerraZaz.
state of Chihuahua, Mexico, which is
uprising. is to the effect that the In
dians are arranging for a prolonged
war. The special SAYS:
1T is going to take the Mexican
government a long time with a big
force of troops to quell the rebellion.
The Yaquis are better prepared now
than ever before for a long and a
bloody campaign. They are well fixed
financially, nearly all of them having
saved the S20Oper head which the Mex
lean government paid them when they
signed the treaty of peace two years
ago. They have been making money
since then, too, and il is known to be
fact that they have been laying in
big supplies of arms and ammunition
for some time past.
at has been common talk among
the American prOspectOrs in the Yaqui
valley that the Indians are preparing
for another outbreak, but as the
braves had always shown a friendly
spirit towards the Americans it was
thought they would not-molest them
when they did go on the war path.
They are determined to recover all
their lost country, however, and viii
kill everybody they find within the
limits of their old possessions"
The special also reported that a
number of miners and ranchmen in
and near Socori had been slain and
their property laid waste.

NEARLY FORTY WERE KILLED.
FrightruI Accident to 81 Loaded Troll
ley Car-FcII Forty Feet
and Capsized.

Bridgeport, Conn, Aug. NEARLY
40 persons were killed by an accident
on the Stratford extension of the Shci-
| ton street railway, at four o'clock yes
| terday afternoon, when a loaded troll
ley car went off the trestle over Peck s
mill pond at Oronoque, about six miles
north of Bridgeport, and sank in the
flats 40 feet below. Thus far Sc people
are known to be dead, and several
more injured.
Only two persons are known to have
escaped unharmed. 1t is believed
that there were 43 passengers on the
| car, but the indicator was removed by
| a conductor of another car and spirit
ed away, so that at present it is impos-
sible to state accurately the number
aboard.
The scene of the accident is between
Shelton and Bridgeport.
The car was north-bound, running
towards Shelton. 1t was in charge Of
Conductor John Carroll, of Bridgeport.
who was among the killed, and Motor
man Hamilton, of Bridgeport, who es-
capped by jumping.
The trestle is 44O feet long, made of
iron, with stone foundations, and was
not protected by guard rails. South
of the trestle was an incline down
which the car ran at high rate of
speed. After it ran on to the trestle
about ten feet the trucks left the
rails, and then the car continued on
the ties for about IS feet when it went
off the trestle and dropped into the
pond below, overturning completely
and upending.
When the car struck the four-ton
motor and the heavy trucks crushed
into it, instantly killing many of the
passengers.
Three physicians, who were passen.
gers on car a short distance behind
arrived quickly on the scene and rem
dered all possible assistance to the in
jured.
Word was sent to Bridgeport, and
three ambulances and the police wag-
on were hurried to the scene and the
injured were taken to Bridgeport
general hospital. A morgue was i'm,
provised in the main room of the town
hall at Stratford, and in a very short
time % bodies were laid out waiting
Identification.
The accident was witnessed by Miss
Frances Peck, who resides about 400
feet from the bridge. She was up
stairs at her home as the car was
passing, and she says that it was run
ming at an unusually fast rate.
Frank Cramer, who was bathing
near the bridge, states that the pas
sengers were all singing and in the
most joyful mood when they passed
him.
The road, which is practically con-
trolled by the Bridgeport Traction Co.
was opened for traffic last Thursday.
