CREW OF THE GALLINA.
Steamer Kanawha Reaches Liverpoo
 With Rescued Mariners.

Liverpool, January 9.-The British steam- CT Kanawha, from Newport News for this port, has arrived here and landed part of the crew of the British steamer Gallina, Captain Frankland from Philadelphia on December 6, for Mossa and Christiana which was abandoned sinking in latitude N. 49 and longitude. on January 3. The re mainder of the crew of the Gallina are on board the British steamer Charing Cross, Captain Mills, from New York, on Decem- Der 23 for Bristol.
 The British steamer Gallina was built at Sunderland in 1878, and was of 1,15O tons net register
 The Kanawna rescued the captain and fifteen of the crew of the Gallina. The lat ter encountered a hurricane on December 2S, during which the seas swept over her, destroying her deck cabin and boats and shifting her cargo. Although a portion of it was jettsoned the Gallina continued to list, and for several days was almost on her beam ends. She was sighted by the Char ing Cross during the night of January 8, an. the following day the Charing Cross sent a lifeboat to the Gallina and brought off six of the latter's crew. The Gallina was then lost sight of during a storm. On the following day the Kanawha hove in sight and launched a lifeboat. Alter re- peated attempts the lifeboats crew sue ceeded in reaching the Gallina and rescued the remainder of the crew.

WRECK OCCURS ON
 UNION PACIFIC Four Were Killed and Seven
 Others Injured.
ENGINES PILED IN HEAP
Cars Immediately Caught Fire and the Uninjured Passengers Began the Work of fRescue-ReliefT Trains
 Sent to the Scene.

Sidney, Neb., January 9.-Four deaths and injury to seven people were caused by wreck on the Union Pacific at Sunal, fifteen miles east of here this morning. The dead are:
 Engineer Del Bonner
 Fireman John c. Coleman, Creston, Ia
 Young woman, supposed to be Miss Myr- tie Armstrong, of Paxton, Neb.
 Unknown old man.
 Engineer Fall, badly scalded.
 Engineer Reese, cut on head.
 H. P. They, Chicago head and face scorched, legs bruised.
 J C. Johnston, fireman, Council Bluffs; scalp wound, face badly bruised.
 Mrs. A M Starzelle, Rallins, Ia; badly injured.
 George J. Hunt, of Omaha, South Bel mont Canal company, left leg fractured, abdominal injury, badly bruised.
 An eastbound passenger train had stopped to take the sidetrack but had not been able to clear the main track when westbound passenger train running at the rate of forty-five miles an hour crashed into it. The engines were piled up in a mass of scrap iron, and the cars, which were badly broken up, immediately took fire. The pas sengers who were not injured at once set to work to rescue those in the wreck. With the exception of Miss Armstrong and the unknown man, whose bodies were badly charred, the passengers escaped injury by fire.
 Relief trains were immediately sent to the scene of the wreck and the injured taken to Sidney, where they could be cared for, and it is thought all will recover.
 Four cars were entirely consumed by fire and several others were so badly broken up as to be practically valueless The three engines, which are among the finest used by the road are practically scrap iron. -
 A new track was built around-the wreck and traffic was delayed only few hours.
The age-herald., 1899-01-10

and by the glare of their flames the wreck ing crews worked their ponderous derficks. The track will probably be cleared sby to- morrow. urH
 L. s. Walter. a lawyer of Mount Carmel, was pinned in the debris of the front car for two hours Despite the fact that he was seriously, if not fatally, injured, MT. Walter directed the attention of the fescu- CTS to other sufferers and from his point of vantage superntended their efforts. When finally taken out MT. Walter was carried to a nearby vacant house, where he was cared for.
 The vicinity of the railroad crossing, where the trains crashed is somwhat de- serted The occupants of the houses near by did everything in their power to assist the wounded, the women tearing up sheets as bandages for the wounded and easing in countless ways their sufferings
 The Dead Laidout
 When the dead arrived at Bound Brook, eight were left in the car that brought them from the scene of the accident, and five were laid out for the coroner in the freight shed close by. W. l.. Estes chief surgeon of the Lehigh Valley road, arrived from Bethlehem during the afternoon with htree nurses, but before he came on the scene most of the work had been done by local physicians.
 The wreck in the early morning was the third freight wreck which has taken place within a week on that part of the Lehigh Valley line between Bound Brook and New market.
 Many of the persons who were on the wrecked train were brought to New York this afternoon. For the most part they were able to take care of themselves and went to hotels
 Harry Bulland was the operator at South Plainfield, and t was he who gave the signal for the local to proceed. Bulland stated that he received no orders to hold the train, and as the track ahead was sup posed to be clear, he allowed the train to go upon the single track.
 Officials Give Out Statement
 Philadelphia, January 9.-The Lehigh Val ley railroad officials in this city gave out a statement tonight which agrees with the press dispatches as to the number and names of the victims of the accident. It further says that all the valuabes found on the bodies of those among the debris arc in the possession of the county physician of Middlesex county. No responsibility is placed for the disaster, but it is stated that investigation is already under way

iZation and citizenship. You violated your declaration of independence,' says the In- dian, when you legislated for me- But who, MT. President, would turn back the hands of time to meet the requirements of the doctrines of the senator from Massa- chusetts? It is the spirit of the declaration oi independence that gives it life. It is per- fectly well assured that no attempt will ever be made to legislate for the people of this continent or for our acquired pos- sessions in contravention of the declaration of independence. I am one of those who believe that we will not bring the doom of this country when we shall place over the inhabitants of our acquired territory legislation which will confer upon them the blessings of peace, happiness and prosper ity''
 MT Caffery of Louisiana inquired of Mr. Platt whether he would force upon those people our system of government against their will
 That question: replied the Connecticut senator, 'is part of the argument of the senator from Louisiana and the senator from Massachusetts in support of the pend ing resolution They hold that we cannot go into an enemyS country, even in time of war, without the consent of the inhabi- t&nts of the country. The argument con- tains within itself it's own answer
 After alluding to the late war and the responsibilities entailed by it upon this country and explaining briefly his own po- sition with respect to the war, MT. Platt said:

 numerous instances by contemporary state constitutions and the contemporary writers and authorities on public law who expressed the opinion of the American people in that generation who adopted the constitution as well as of them who framed it.
 In discussing how territory may be ac- quired constitutionally by the United States, MT. Hoar said: Ut may also ac- quire adjoining or outlying territory, dis pose of it, make rules and regulations for 1t for the purpose of national security and defense as in the case of Hawaii, although 1t may not be expected that that territory so acquired, held and disposed of shall ever come into the union a state."
 However, immediately following this statement, MT. Hoar set the Philippines against Hawaii in this declaration: "Mr. President you are not now proposing to acquire or own property in the Philippines With dominion as a necessary incident; you are not to own foot of land there. You propose now to acquire dominion and leg islative power and nothing else. Where in the constitution is the grant of power to exercise sovereignty where you have TO property?"
 Cited Numerous Authorities
 In support of this interpretation of the constitution Mir Hoar cited numerous au- thorities. among them Charles Sumner MT. Justice Matthews and MT. Justice Brewer. He then appealed to senators who are hes itatlng as to what their action upon the question of expansion may be-the greatest question that has ever been or eyer will be sst to them in their lives, the question not of a year of congress, not of gen eration not of a century, but a question perta ming rather to the great period of a national life-''not to commit themselves in principle to such policy by supporting the peace treaty, and then say they will consider hereafter how they will act tinder 1t. In the course of his appeal to sen ators. MT. Hoaf said: "Whcn you raise the flag over the Philippine islands as an emblem of dominion and acquisition. you take it down from Independence Hall"
 He quoted the statement of Louis Ma poleon, made in ls5i that 'the time of conquest is pas., never to return, for it is not by extending the boundaries of it's territory that a nation can henceforth be honored and powerful, but by placing itself at the head of generous ideas and spread ing everywhere the empire of right and justice,'' and added Napoleon forgot what he had said when he grew a little stronger. He saw his opportunity in Mex ico, as our friends think they see ours in the Philippine islands. But the sure and terrible fate of destiny overlook him in the midst of his pride and power
 Our commissioners come back from Paris bringing with them the cast-off clothing of this pinch-back Napoleon and ask us who have seen his fate, to discard for them the spotless robes in which our fathers arrayed the beautiful genius of America.

Feely. q got up and made a dive for the door, but was lifted off my feet and the rear end of our tender showed me through the woodwork until I found myself almost on the rear platform There l scrambled over the bodies of two men and got out, prac- tically unhurt.'
