PORT JARVIS, N. ", Aug. 1.-The
accident on the Erie railroad, growing
out of the Landslide a mile east of Lacka-
waxon, was not as serious as at first re-
ported. Only the fireman and engineer
Of the derailed engine of the westbound
Chicago express, which turned over on
the track, were killed, though a number
of passengers were injured.
The wreck, which occurred shortly
before midnight, was preceded by a
cloudburst and storm, which lasted two
hours. A section of the bank fell on the
eastbound track directly in front Of a
freight train, ditching ~ cars. The
debris was piled on the westbound
track just as the Chicago express put
in an appearance, running at the rate of
SO miles an hour. The engine of the
express train vs .t-.r 49,

and the baggage car, com bination and
buffet car, and Pullman sleepers piled
upon the track Immediately in front of
the wrecked cars. The first sleeper was
split in two parts as result of the ac-
cident and the passengers were thrown
80 feet down an embankment. Fire at
once broke out and four cars of the ex-
press train and nine of the freight cars
were burned. Members of the crew at
once started to search different portions
of the wreck and assisted those who
were trying to escape. A relief train
soon reached the scene of the accident
and nearly all the injured persons were
removed to the hospital. It is believed
all the injured will recover.

OPINION. AT PRETORIA.

Inquiry Must Cover All Points Which
Are at Issue.
! PRETORIA, Aug. 1.-State Secretary
F. w. Reitz, in the course of an inter-
view, said that if the inquiry proposed
by the British governm ent is to EN- brace
all matters Of dispute of late years be-
tween Great Britain and the Transvaal,
including the convention of 1874, it
might be accepted, but if the franchise
only was to be considered the volks-
;raad had passed on that, and further
consideration of the question was tanta-
mount to arbitrating through a ,conven-5
ton, thus depriving the country Of its
independence. '~>

had fallen from his seat, and that the

DR.. Common ATTACKS MILES
THINKS COMMANDING GENERAL
MAY BE DISMISSED.
If the Court of Inquiry Finds the
Facts As the Commission Found
Them.

Cincinnati, o., Feb. 14.-Dr. P. S.
Conner, after long service on the war
investigating commission, having re-
turned to his home here, was compli-
mented by a dinner at the Grand hotel
tonight by his friends and neighbors.
The guest spoke freely of the work of
me investigating commission, which,
he said, had been assailed from the
beginning as one created to veil the
truth He declared that the commits
sion labored earnestly to find and to
declare the truth. It's work, he said,
would have been closed much sooner
but for the remarkable charges pro-
mulgated by the commanding general
OF the army in his statement before the
commission. The doctor sketched the
investigation of that statement made
by the commission, and said he hoped
the court of inquiry which is to ex-
anime the same matter would probe it
to its depth. He hoped they might get
more light than the commission had
found. The witness was either perfect
ly right or perfectly wrong, and the
doctor was sure that if the court of
inquiry found the facts as the investi-
eating commission had found them, a
high officer of the army would be dis
missed from the service
Judge w. H. Taft of the United
States court also spoke, and caused a
sensation by saying he had hoped the
United States would only have Cuba
to take care of, and was sorry other
burdens had been entaiIed He took
comfort, however, in the belief that
Brother Jonathan was q sensible char
acter and that if he found that he
had done wrong, he would be willing
TO correct it, even if it involved haul
ing down the flag where it had been
raised by mistake.
