! Hls STAY At AN END.



San Francisco, May 25.-President
Mckinley has completed his program
in this city, having met every organ
Iization included in the original
schedule, and Mrs. McKinley's 3 health
has SO far improved that the president
and his party began their return jour-
Iney to the national capital at 10 A.
NJ. today.
The presidents pubic functions
yesterday included reception at the
Scott mansion to the members OF the
foreign consular corps of this city, a
reception at the Palace Hotel by the
Sons and Daughters of the American
Revolution and the Loyal Legion in
honor of the president, and review
OF the school children. Of Oakland by
the president.
Last night President Mckinley at
tended an impromptu reception Al
the California street NJ. E. church,
given by the Epworth League and
Christian Endeavor societies. Special
precautions were taken to prevent any
annoyance while the president and
his wife were being driven to the ferry.
A route was chosen that secured per-
feet comfort for Mrs. Mckinley. The
party was taken to Oakland on a
special boat. The two trained nurses
who have attended the patient in this
city will also go to Washington with
her. No fast time will be made and
the train will run slowly to Stockton.

RACED Foa 4 SWITCH.
rsr'a's Aeeidsat cs.ssd ~ nssssnss's

Albany. N. ", May N.-Electric
cars racing for . switch while run
ming in opposite directions at the
rate Of 40 miles an hour cost five
lives yesterday afternoon by terrific
collision in which over 40 prominent
people were injured, some fatally
and others seriously. The lobby Of
the local postoffice. filled with dead
and wounded, hystericsl women and
children looking for relatives and
friends, surgeons administering tenn
porary relief, and ambulances racing
through the city taking the wounded
to the hospitals, were the early in,
timations OF the accident.
The scene OF the accident was Mt q
point about two miles out of Green
busch, on the line of the Albany 4
Hudson Railway. The point where
the cars met ON the single track was
at sharp curve, and so fast were
both running and so sudden was the
collision that the motormen did not
have time to put on the brakes be-
fore south bound car No. % had gone
almost clear through north bound
car No. IL, and hung on the edge
Of q high bluff with its load of Shrek
ing MANNED humanity. One motor
man was pinioned up against. the
smashed front Of the south bound
car, with both legs severed and was
killed instantly, while the other one
lived but few moments.
+ The few women and children who
had escaped injury were hysterical
and added their cries to the shrieks
of the dying and mutilated. Men
with broken arms and bones, with
dislocated joints and bloody heads
and faces, tried to assist others who
were more helpless. Help had been
summoned from East Greenbusch and
vicinity, and in little time the
bruised mass Of humanity, with the
mutilated dead, were loaded on
empty cars and taken to Albany.
The ambulances and physicians had
been summoned and the postofiice
turned into morgue and hospital.
As far as the physicians could tenn
porarily attend the wounded they
were taken to their homes or to the
hospitals.
With both motormen killed it
was hard to get mt the real cause of
the accident, but it is pretty well de-
termined that it was caused by an
attempt of the south bound car to
reach second switch instead of
waiting for the north bound car Mt
the first siding. The cars weigh 15
tons each and are the largest electric
cars built, and so frightful was the
crash that both cars were torn almost
to splinters.

ECLIPSE PHOTOGRAPHS.
Satisfactory Results Obtained by the Lick Party
in Sumatra.

San Jose, Cal, May N.-The fol-
loving has been received from the di-
rector of the Lick observatory:
Lick Observatory, May 2.-As-
tronomer Perrine, in charge of the
Croker eclipse expedition from the
Lick observatory to Sumatra, has
cabled the gratifying information
that some results were secured with
all the instruments taken with him.
This, taken in connection with his
cable of last week, is taken to mean
that his successful photographs were
secured between clouds drifting across
the vicinity of the sun. As this was
an unusually long eclipse, it is quite
probable that his results will compare
favorably in quality and quantity
with those secured at the short
eclipses of the past three years. The
hoods of the coronal streamers, first
observed at the Indian eclipse of 1898,
are recorded on the plates of the pres
ent eclipse. Further details Of the
results secured are not expected until
the arrival of Mr.. Perrine's letters. -

SEVERE WIND STORM.


esn States.
Salt Lake, May 2S.- The wind
storm which swept over Nevada,
Utah, Southern Idaho, Wyoming
end Colorado, did damage that will
run into the hundreds OF thousands
of dollars. 1t resulted in almost
complete prostration of telegraph and
telephone service in the states affect
ed and for nearly "a hours during the
height OF the storm, the inter noun
tain region was practically cut of
from the rest of the world. The
storm was severest in Eastern Nevada
and Utah, and in the fertile valleys
in the northern part of Utah wide
spread devastation resulted. When
the storm was at its height, the wind
at some points reached velocity OF
80 miles an hour.
At Ogden the storm was felt worst.
Here the wind tore roofs from num-
Der OF buildings, including the Bap-
tist church, completely demolishing
barns and outbuildings, and scattered
them far and wide, uprooted many
shade trees and tore others to pieces,
blew in plate glass windows in bust
ness blocks and prostrated electric
light wires, 80 that the city was in
darkness. The damage in Ogden
will probably reach 500, 600.
At Five Points, Logan, Smithfeld,
Hooper and other places the damage
was very great. Hundreds Of fruit
trees were completely stripped. The
force of the wind was so terrific
around Logan and Hooper that to-
mato vines were swept entirely from
fields. 1t is estimated that fully
one half of the crops were destroyed.
Around Hooper, the sweep OF the
wind blew away the ploughed ground
to the full depth that the Flows had
entered the earth, rendering the land
practically useless.
Along the north shore Of the Great
Salt Lake the wind picked up the dry
sand in great clouds and hurled il
across the country with terrific force,
half burying the railroad tracks for
miles.

Internal Survey Party Win Locate United
States.C Canada Line.

Vancouver, B. c., May 27.-An in
ternational survey party, consisting
of United States and Canadian en-
gineers, is about to begin the task OF
defining the international boundary
between the United States and Can
ada from the Pacific coast to the
Rocky mountains. 1t is contended
that this work was inaccurately per-
formed in the surveys OF 1859 and
1861. One of the most important
matters to be determined is the ques-
tion of the national location of Mount
Baker mining district. Valuable
mines are embraced in this section,
and the territory is claimed by both
the American and Canadian govern
ments.
(. Lieutenant Sinclair, of the coast
and geodetic survey, will be at the
head of the United States party, and
j. H. Macarthur will lead the Cana
dian surveyors. The work will begin
this week.

The Kaffirs have had an opportunity
to learn something Of the art of surgery
since the soldiers and the military doc
tors have overrun Africa. Possibly ad-
yanced methods will not altogether
supersede primitive surgery among
these people, however. for they are not
fond OF change.
Time was when a Kaffir with .
broken leg submitted to peculiar treat
ment. 1t was customary to place the
limb In a hole dug in the earth. and
keep It there till the bones were knit
together again.
The Leisure Hour tells of case in
which the bones Of a certain KafYir lad.
having been ret by European aid. the
Kaflr father dissented from the meth
Cd employed. He had the splints re-
moved, carried the boy home on horse
back, ana then took the usual course Of
setting the limb in the earth. The
consequence was that 1t took six
months to effect cure.

verest son In the doctors family being

KEEP CHINESE TROOPS OUT,
to Grant Permission for Return
of 5000 Soldiers.

Picking, June 19.-The foreign min
listers have declined to assent to the
request to allow 5000 Chinese soldiers
to come to Picking now. They con
slider that it would be inadvisable to
permit such a step to be taken be-
fore the latter part of August, by
which time, the international troops,
with the exception of the legation
guards, will have left the city.
The ministers also declined to per-
nit international troops to guard
the forbidden city until the Chinese
soldiers shall arrive.
London, June ia dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Paris declares that
under the terms Of a secret convention

tect the proposed new railway from

troops exactly as Russia does in Man
churia, and that France intends to
exercise this right, although the in
tention to do SO may now be denied.
This policy is an outcome of the recent
visit to St. Petersburg of NJ. Del Case,
the French minister of foreign affairs.

CABINET MEETS.
Session Spent In Discussion of q
Number Of Important
@ Topics.

Washington, June 19.-The cabinet
meeting Tuesday was without i'm
portant feature. There was desultory
discussion of the Chinese settlements,
the situation in the Philippines, Cuba
and Porto Rico, but nothing of mo-
ment developed and no action was de-
cided upon. The president is prepared
to issue his proclamation declaring
the abolition of duties between the
United States and Porto Rico if the
insular legislature at the extraor-
binary session called for July 4 pre-
sents facts to him to sustain the claim
that the under the Hollander
tax law make the island self-sustain-
ing. The cabinet believe that the Chi
nese settlement is close at hand. In
talking of this settlement, Secretary
Hay suggested that the amounts vol
UNFAIRLY paid the American mission
aries by Chinese provinces should be
deducted from our aggregate claim
of $50, 900 900. The general sentiment
of the cabinet seemed to favor this
course, but no action was taken. Sec
rotary Hitchcock reported that a deci-
sion of the courts in the suit to enjoin
him from proceeding with the opening
of the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache
reservation in Oklahoma probably
would be rendered in a few days. I'm
til the court acts nothing further will
be done.
Secretary Root laid before the CABS
met reports from Gov. Gen. Wood
showing a most satisfactory condi-
ton of affairs in the island. These re-
lated mainly to the progress that has
been made in the matters of munici-
pal government, establishing the
schools, general improvements, sani-
tation and the bettered condition Of
the inhabitants of the island.
