and the complete destruction Of IN cn-
gine and ten freight cars. The loss to
the company is about S25, 900.
The canse of the wreck is q mystery.
The Fort Wayne train was standing
still when an extra freight on the
Pennsylvania heavily laden came
dashing up behind at the rate of 30
miles an ho:r and crashed into it.
The telegraph operator and signal man
both claim to have signnled the extra
to stop, but no attention was paid to
their warnings. Some of the trainmcn
think Bracken must have fallen asleep
at his post.

NO MORE SIXTEEN-INCH GUNS.
First aad Probably the Last eor
Uncls Sam Will he Tested
This Year.

Tho first and probably the last mon
ster gun to be built In this country 10
nearing completion at Watervliet ar
senal, and If nothing goes amiss may be
submitted to its firing tests in the fall.
The finished gun will be five feet in out
side diameter at the breech and two
feet three inches At the muzzle. Its
total length will be few inches under
80 feet. The powder chamber will be
1s inches in diameter by nine feet in
length. and will hold for a full charge
over half ton of brown powder. The
projectile will weigh 1870 pounds. It
will leave the muzzle with velocity of
1000 feet per second. and at this veloci-
ty the flying mass will have striking
energy of 64,0S4 foot-tons. or sufficient
to lift g. Of the biggest freight locomo-
tives ten feet in the air. At the muzzle
the shell would punch q 16-nch hole
through an iron plate over q yard in
thickness. and at two miles distance It
would pass through 27h-inch plate.
Notwithstanding its great power, Un-
Gle Sam will probably never build an
other, for. while the superiority of this
kind Of gun was incon testible eight or
ten years ago. It does not compare in
efficiency with ordnance of the modern
type. For given appropriation Uncle
Sam can, by building 12-inch guns, Sc
cure over twice as many guns of much
greater penetration and efficiency.

DEATH OF COL. H. G. EGBERT,
The Gallant OGoer Kiasd In hattie Noas
Manila was Line Odloer fer Near.
" Forty Years.

WASHINGTON, March 27.--Col. Henry
c. Egbert, whom Gen. Otis reports
among the killed, was born in Penn
sylvania and appointed frst lieuten-
ant in the army from civil life ON Sep
tember 23, 1861. He served continu-
ously a. line officer for nearly 40 years.
He was more closely identified with
the 12th infantry than any 9th
er organization, having served with
distinction in that regiment during
the civil war. He was taken prisoner
at the battle Of Gettysburg but escaped
and rejoined his command, and was
severely wounded on Juno 3 1854, in
the battle of Bethesda church, vir-
ginia. He was major Of the 18th infantry
from 1890 to Alsos whsh he became
lieutenant colonel of the 9Th infantry.
This regiment he commanded In the
Santiago campaign nntil disabled by .
shot through the body on July 1, 1898.
For HIS distinguished service Ia battle
he was promoted brigadier gen.
eral of volunteers, which grade he
held until December 1, 1893 when
in the reduction of the volunteer army
he was honorably discharged. He
was promoted colonel in the regular
establishment on July 1, 1898, and as
signed to the 22d infantry, whose
colonel, Charles A. Wikoff, was
killed at San Juan hill. He
joined the 22d infantry January
80, 1899, sailed with it for
Manila February and arrived at Ma
Mia March 4, 1890. Gen. Egbert was
we'll known throughout the army as
an officer of a high order of ability
and as man of sterling qualities. In
the death of Gen. Egoert the service
loses one of it's best colonels.

get to shore or to abandon himself as

The passengers had felt angry with
him-especially those who had done

became anxious lest the swift current
should claim him, too.
Slowly he worked his way along un-

had waded out up to his neck and was

Somewhat to her surprise, he joyful
