HEAD END COLLISION.
Three Tramps Killed in a Rock
Island Wreck.

Rock Island westbound train No. 5
and eastbound train No. 6, both pass
enger, came together at Burlington, a
small station a few miles west of Good
land, Kas-, Sunday morning. Three
tramps, riding on the front platform of
a baggage car, were instantly killed
None of the passengers or train crew
were injured Mail Clerk Armstrong
was Slightly bruised.
Both engines were badly wrecked by
the collision, but none of the cars were
thrown from the track. Traffic was de-
layed six hours while the engines were
being removed from the track
The collision was the result of the
attempt of the engineer on the west
bound train to make Bethune a small
station west of Burlington, as the meet
ing point. His orders made Burlington
the meeting point, but he misread
them
Each engineer saw the other train at
some distance, and one train was at a
Standstill when the collision occurred
The other was not running more than
ten miles an hour. This accounts for
the fact that none of the passengers or
trainmen were injured
The tramDS killed were caught be-
tween the engine tender and the front
of the baggage car. Their bodies We're
found in their clothes to identify them.
Engineer Masters and Conductor
Lacy were in charge of the eastbound
train The westbound train was in
charge of Engineer Ryan and Con-
ductor Kelly.

WHEAT-The trade expected cables to
come a penny higher this morning, but
they were I'D lower. The market opened
&c lower, but advanced rapidly over half
a cent There was lot of wheat for sale
the advance and it kept coming out
steadily to the close, the last trade being
at the lowest quotations for the day.
There were 1853 cars wheat in the north
west against 565 a year ago Chicago got
over 200 cars and Kansas City came to
the front again with 700 cars good milling
wheat There was good cash demand
reported, however, and traders were in
clined to take profits on short wheat and
go long at the decline. Gables closed Il
to SD lower for the day and the chances
are they will come weak in the morning
Rains are reported in the drouth sections
and it looks as If wheat will work some
lower temporarily. 1t must be remem-
bered that wheat has had a hard break
and that there are two sides to the mar
ket and we believe the shrewd trader
will take on moderate line on any fur
Their break
CORN-Corn held strong. Gables were
3sd higher for the day. Clearances good
improved and the demand keeps up to
satisfactory degree. We friendly to
the long side of corn and believe it will
go higher
OATS-Oats are quiet and featureless.
Some good buying at the decline.
PROVISIONS-There were %, 900 hogs
at the yards and market closed to 1Oc
raided September pork selling off about
Csc a barrel from opening prices. We be-
lieve pork is only cSoring for good adj
vance, and that prices will work TO a
much higher level before any material
decline. J. G. GOINGS.

established and intended by the fathers
of our country"
