BE Careful.

The danger of reckless shooting was mani
tested day or two since. An effort to teach
q youngster how to shoot accurately was be-
ing made. Several Of the bullets went wide
OF the mark, one of them entering the window
of a neighboring house and passing over the
spot from which a member of the household
had Just removed. The bullet was Of about
a calibre and had the person been struck,
either death or serious injury would have
been the result.

damage to the building. The second car was
thrown across the track, the third car went
into the station eudwise, completely block
ing both tracks, with the other end damned
into the waiting shed on the opposite side.
The fourth car was thrown across the track
and was also endwise in the station. Part OF
ladies' waiting room and all OF the ticket
offices were demolished. The wood work was
crushed into kinding and the bricks from
the lower end Of the station, together with
tered along the tracks.
Mr.. Reasin, the station master, and his
family were asleep at the time Of the accident
and we're awakened by the rocking OF the
station. Their first thoughts were that II
WAS an earthquake. The floors OF their sleep
ing apartments were raised about an incl
and the partitions between the waiting room
and ground floor apartments were bulged b!
the terrific crash of the cars into the station
| The planks from the platform were crushed
into kindling wood and were piled up besid

CURED the tracks were cleared. In tn

The Bank Tax Cases.

Mr.. Hester Hess, counsel to the Board OF
County Commissioners Of Cecil county, has
made a close examination of all the cores
pondeuee connected with the case of the
Baltimore banks who have SO far refused to
pay the taxes claimed to be due Cecil county
on shares of national banks for the years
1897, 1893 and 1899. The claims of the county
have been placedin the hands Of the sheriff for
collection. The attorneys for the Baltimore
banks agree to settle for the face of the tax
but refuse to pay any interest or the costs in
the matter.
Elk Judge George Y. Maynadier, who is the
counsel for the County Commissioners Of
Hartford county is in communication with
Mr.. Hess upon the subject, as Hartford coun-
ty is in like situation with the Baltimore
banks.
The Cecil Commissioners authorized Mr..
Hess to meet with Judge Maynadier and with
any other county representative where the
tax has not been paid and decide upon some
plan of procedure looking to the collection
Of the taxes due. with interest and costs.

RUSSIA'S POSITION.
Statement Made by Her Charge daft
flares Here.

One of tine callers at the State Depart
ment late yesterday afternoon was Mr.. de
Wolant charge d'affaires of the Russian
embassy. Mr.. de Wollant refused to
discuss the nature of his communications
with the State Department, but authorized
the following statement:
Russia occupies very similar position
now as at the beginning of the Chinese in
cident. Notwithstanding the fact that the
foreign dispa tches assert that Russia en-
tertains selfish ideas of national aggrand-
izement at the expense of China it may be
authoritatively stated that Russia is OPP
posed to the partition or dismemberment
OF the Chinese empire. Russia seeks peace
in China. She has been very careful that
her course should be shaped to achieve this
Russia individually or because of councils
emanat ting from her statesmen. The Amer
ican people can be assured that this is the
exact attitude of Russia.
LAS to the opera tons al Niu-chang. which
have been so much distorted, Russia holds
that town today exactly the collective
allies hold Taku. 1t was necessary to re-
store order The town was attacked and
the Russian interests in the leased terri
tory jeoparGiZed. 1t was occupied to pro-
tect the Chinese eastern extension of the
Siberian railroad. Its possession by Russia
will be no bar to peace, because Russia does
not intend to acquire territory at the eX-
pense of the Chinese or the interests of her
allies in the operations now progressing"
