FIVE KILLED.
Men Shoot Each Other
Down In Arkansas.

Hot Springs, Ark, March ia
shooting occurred here at $50 o'clock
this evening, which resulted in the
death of five men and the serious
wounding of one man, who is not ex-
pected to live. The killed are:
Thomas Toler, chief of police; j. E.
Hart, city detective; Thomas F. Cos
lee, police sergeant; John Williams,
son of Sheriff Williams; Louis Hink-
ley, driver of brewery wagon. I'D.
Spears was shot in the neck and may
die.
The shooting grew out of the mayor
atty campaign under way here. The
sheriff was a warm supporter of the
regular democratic nominee, while To-
Ter, Hart and Goslee' were supporting
an opposition candidate.
Early in the afternoon shots were
exchanged between Sheriff Williams
and his son John on the one side, and
Sergeant Goslee on the other, but no
one was injured. After this, both par
ties determined to have it out. Toler,
Hart and GoSlee were walking on Cen
trail avenue at about $50 O'Clock, when
they were met by Sheriff Williams and
his two sons, John and Coffey and Ed
Spears.
Forty or fifty shots were exchanged.
When it was over, Toler, Hart, Cos
lee and Hinkley non-combatant
mortally wounded Williams died an
hour later.
Louis Hinkley attempted to separate
the combatants when the fight opened
He was shot in the head and instantly
killed.

fails to reveal anything wrong with
wheels or machinery.
Careful inspection of the tracks in
daylight, revealed many things that
escaped notice IN the dark and con-
fusion of Wednesday night. First Of
all, marks on the wood planking show
that the car jumped the track at the
point Of union of two distinct kinds OF
rails.
The track on the upward approach
of the bridge is made Of what is tech
nically known as girder rails, or rails
with a broad bottom fangc. All the
rails laid in Worcester are or this va
rlety as they allow the wheels of car
riages and wagons to run on the track.
But in the country the cheaper T.
shared rail is used. This rail is the
kind used on the MCGOWAN bridge.
1t is always important that the june
tioT Of two different kinds Of rails
should be smooth. There should not be

GAFFNEY'S EVIDENCE.
Says Captain Lincoln Was After Bargain
AS He Was Himself.

John Gaffney charged with obtain
ing $500 from Levi Lincoln on false
pretenses, was arraigned yesterday
morning in the central district court
and bound over to the grand jury in
$1,000 The story of how Gaffney OBJ
tanned the horses from Capt. Lincoln
has been told in The Spy. Gaffney
tried to introduce evidence to show
that Capt. Lincoln was looking for a
bargain himself and intimated that
Capt. Lincoln was not in state to re-
member exactly what did occur on the
day the transaction took place. Capt
Lincoln told Of the trade and how he
got worthless draft for $50 as first
payment on the horses
1t appears that a man named Han
son really bought the horses, but would
not have got them but for the recon-
mendation Of Gaffney.
Hopkins Smith & Hopkins appeared
for the plaintiff, and Allen, Hogan and
Piper Of Boston appeared for Gaffney.
Michael Daley, arraigned for inde-
cent assault and drunkenness, was
committed to the house of correction
for two years. Herbert j. Howell.
charged with keeping an unlicensed
dog, had his case placed on file.
Carl Ussett, Thomas Cleary and
Earnest Eunstrom, three Juveniles,
were charged with the larceny of three
quarts Of whisky Their cases were
continued until Tuesday. William Du-
gan, a drunk, had his case continued
and Edward O'Donnell on the same
charge was fined S..

the slightest difference i'm height be-
tween the ends OF the rails. But at the
spot in question, there is a gap Of IN
inch and q half between The rails. and
the 7 rail is at least q half inch lower
than the girder rail at the end. In
the center the r rail has settled fully
two inches.
Another noteworthy fact is that the
two Joints are directly opposite. The
Joint Of one rail is usually opposite the
middle OF the other rail The rails
should overlap Oftentimes when
there is a change IN the style Of rail,
the rule is violated as in the present
instance but when that is done it be-
hooYes the road superintendent to use
the greatest care in keeping the condi-
tlon Of the roadbed good at that par
ticular point. MotOrmen should be
instructed to pass the point slowly
But there is evidence TO show that car
63 passed the point at an unusual rate
OF speed.
An observer standing on the track a
little distance away from the point
where the car left il. can see a marked
depression The rails, too, are not per-

feeetly, parallel The right rail appears

ScrlDad Is not ordinarily pelilous Ten
thousand cars might run oyer the
point safely. But another car pecu-
iiarty weighed and balanced might
give a lurch at the fatal point suffl-
cienL to send it off the track
Every motorman passing The spot Of
the accident yesterday ran at a snaius
pace. Yet every car gong up the
bridge rocked and plunged like a tub
boat in stormy sea. 1t was easy to
imagine a car going along at such a
nigh rate of speed as to lift the for
ward wheels from the track.
That the officials Of the road consld-
cred the condition Of the place unsafe
IS proved by the fact that no less than
week ago a gang was seL to work
raising the rails al the point described.
1t is thought they left the earth 60
loose that the succeeding thaw CAUSED
the ground to settle more than before.
A distance Of 100 feet from the bridge
the tracks have settled so far as 20
be completely covered with water.
Many similar places are to be found
along the road.
State Railroad Inspector d. M.
Wheeler and j. W. Borden, the latter
representing the Fidelity Accident In
surance Company in which the Wor-
ceSter and Suburban is insured spent
the whole day gathering evidence as to
the cause Of the accident
When seen by The Spy man. both
gentlemen admitted that the tracks had
sunk far below the normal. where car
63 left the track, but cautiously re-
Trained from giving that fact alone as
cause, Mr.. Borden stated positively
that unless he could find something
wrong with the car or machinery. he
would be at loss to account for the
disaster Later in the day Mr.. Wheeler
told a member Of the board OF select
men that it WAS his opinion that the
accident was due entirely to the short
truck which keeps car unstable. The
style Of car used on the Millbury
branch is out Of date in that respect
1t would take q great deal to force one
Of the big jumbo cars with long trucks
Oft a track. The Millbury cars are the
other extreme.
Mr. Wheeler is an expert on railroad
wrecks. He says this wreck, like many
others, may always remain mystery.
He instanced the New York Central
wreck q year ago as an example of a
derailment, the cause OF which has
never been ascertained He intlmated
that little pebble in exactly the right
place might have occasioned the Mill
bury wreck A sudden high application
Of power might have had the same re-
suit
The work OF dragging the wrecked
car out OF the river was commenced
al an early hour by Trainmaster Nc

Blackington and a big gang Of work
men. superintendent German was on
