CAR JUMPS THE TRACK.
Peculiar Accident on the City and
Suburban Railway.

fecul1aF Acc1Ccnt on the city and
Suburban Railway.
The New York avenue and G street
branches Of the City and Suburban railway
were tied up today In peculiar accident,
which occurred at 5th and G streets. Car
46 of the New York avenue branch, while
west bound, jumped the tracks at this
point shortly before noon. While rounding
the curve at 9Th and G streets the wheels
of the forward truck of the car jumped
the tracks and plowed their way over the
adjacent tracks and asphalt pavement I'M
til the huge vehicle rested at almost a right
angle to the G street tracks. The wheels
of the rear truck never left the tracks.
The pillow, however, was pulled off, although
ii was stated by the crew of the hurry-up
wagon, which was Immediately sent for,
that neither it nor the car itself was dam
aged to any material extent. But few pas
Sengers were on the car, and none of them
was injured.
The officials of the road stated that they
could not account for the accident, al
though it was the opinion of some oe the
residents in the neighborhood that the rails
on the curve are not sufficiently raised to
prevent the wheels from leaving the tracks.
Ii is said, however, that the accident to-
day was the first of it's kind at
officials that it. was built by experts in
railway construction, and that in their
opinion the tracks are properly constructed.
The G street branch of the road was tied
up for about half an hour and the New
York avenue branch for over an hour, the
runaway finally being pulled back into
position by another car.

ISABELLE ARTACHo.s PROTEST..
Declares That Filipino Revolt Is In
spircd by Personal Political Ambition

Declares That Filipino Revolt Is In
spircd by Personal Political Ambition
In the budget Of mail advices received by
the War Department from Manila is a pub
lished letter from Isabelle Artacho who is
described by the Manila papers a man
of Importance, and the former partner of
Aguinaldo." His statement, made under
oath, bears date July 49, and is in part as
follows:
That the present rebellion, far from
aiming at the true emancipation of the
country, is carried on to crafty personal
political ambitions mean and spurious, at
fectlonal, In order to perpetrate with i'm
punity, under the guise of a so-called po-
lftical system established under the name
of a republic, acts eminently barbarious,
treacherous and despotic, and crimes I'M
known in the code of penalties throughout
the world.
THAT the present rebellion against the
sovereignty of the United States of North
America. while having for it's professed OBJ
Ject the absolute independence of the peo-
pie of the Philippine Islands, is in reality
a movement to bring the people under the
most intolerable slavery-domestic slavery
and to place in the hands of an individ-
ual the sacred attributes of God, country,
King (Dios. patra. hey).
That the present rebellious movement
does not have the support of the best ele-
ments in the inhabitants of the island
those who are free to exercise a wise and
honest DISCRIMINATION, Tor they recognize
that instead of bringing them the desired
happiness and prosperity the assumption
of independence will lead to self-murder
for the state of chaos that will result will
bring misery and ruin to the people.
THAT consistent with his convictions and
ideas, as all free and constant men should
be, he has confidence in his heart that the
powerful and generous United States of
North America, whose governing institu-
tions have for their basis the principle of
the most ample liberty of thought in all
Its manifestations of reason and justice,
will establish her sovereignty in the Phil
ippfnes in accordance with the obligations
to which she has pledged herself before
the world, inter ALA, restore peace and or
der in the Philippines to establish liberal
institutions there, and to lead the people
along the path of progress to individual
and national prosperity.
THE deponent hereby dictates this dec
laration as token of his unconditional ad-
hesion to America and to all sensible and
honest Filipinos. while protesting, in the
name of reason, of justice and Of sincere
patriotism, against the atrocities, despot-
ism, crimes and shameful exaggerations
perpetrated both in the Philippines and in
other places by those who falsely arrogate
to themselves the right to speak in the
name of the inhabitants of the Philippine
Islands.
