Wreck on the SeabOard.

HAMLET, n. c., June 1I.-l.aSt night
about 10 o'clock the northbound Sea-
board Air Line Atlanta special turned
broadside off 4 trestle into pond, about
mile north of Rockingham.
There were on board about % or 80
passengers, all of whom were more or less
injured, several very seriously, and two,
white man and negro, probably fatally.
There were three ladies and some chill
dren aboard, none of whom were serious
ly hurt.
The engine and two mail cars passed
over in safety but the combination bag
gage and second, first and two Pullman's
turned over. On account of the rains
the piers of the trestles gave way on the
left side. At the first crash all lights
went out and water rushed in waist deep
through the windows. Baggagemaster
Smith, though seriously hurt himself, at
once thought of the freight following
close behind. He crawled out, and seiZ-
ing lantern, hobbled down the track and
tagged the freight, thereby preventing 4
second catastrophe. When the freight
stopped he was lying on the ground un-
able to raise, but still waving his lantern.
He fell time and again before he succeed
ed in getting far enough back to flag the
train. He had to be carried back on 4
stretcher.
The newsboy also did heroic work
crawling through the the cars helping the
almost drowned passengers to escape
through the transoms over door.
A relief train came from Hamlet with
doctors, and another from Rockingham

that the girls are growing taller"
"Oh, dear" answered her sedate young
friend, "don't you think it was just lit
tie bit indelicate for you and a young
man to discuss girls physical proper
tions?"
II don't see why, as long as he had
found out just how far it was around me
and what do you think he said when
asked him if he thought the men as rule
were worried over the idea that the girls
are growing taller?"

LORD SALISBURY
MAY SOON RETIRE
The Premier III. Aging and
Tired of Political
Life.
NEW YORK, April Ia special tt
the Tribune from T,ondort ssvs.

NEW YORK, April Ia special to
the Tribune from London says:
There were alarming bulletins at sew
eral of the clubs yesterday respecting
the health of the prime minister with
forecasts Of his resignation and retire
ment from public life before the end
Of April. While these announcements
have been premature and caused need
less anxiety, there had been no con-
cealment of the truth at Westminster
Tor several days that Lord Salisbury
was aging rapidly and that he was not
likely to remain in Office after the new
reign has fairly begun. Even before
his present indisposition, it had become
evident that his health was failing and
that he was looking jaded and worn.
The queens death and the press of
business in connection with the opening
scenes of the ceremo1ials of the new
reign have prevented a journey to the
riviera, which might have invigorated
him, and possibly it may now be too
late for him to take advantage Of a
respite from official duties. II has been
an open secret that the prime minister
was weary Of public life and anxious to
retire after the general elections, but
was dissuaded by urgent requests from
the court. His inclination prompted re-
urement when King Edward ascended,
but he was again forced to make a
personal sacrifice and he waited for a
convenient season. Those who have
heard his recent speeches have been
impressed with his listless manner, lack
OF animation and his increasing feeble
ness. Members of parliament have
peen predicting since January resigna-
ton before the close of the present ses-
sion. 1t has been noticeable that the
hlng has spared his premier needless
attendance at court and appointed the
service Of Mr.. Balfour many times
Wnen the Prime Minister would nat
ula4y have been in consultation with
nm. Even If current reports Of Lord
SaAsoury's failing health are exag-
eerated there is little reason to doubt
mat there will be new prime minister
peiore midsummer, probably Mr.. Bal
rour in preference to the Duke OF
oeVonshire or Mr.. Chamberlain. There
were no notable callers at Arlington
street yesterday and official bulletins
10 not yet admit the case is serious.

AMERICA SHOWS DIsPLEAsuRE.
The Government Withdraws Minister
Loomis From Venezuela.

NEW YORK, April IA special to
the Herald, from Washington, says:
In order to expedite the arrival of
Minister Loomis in this country, Sec
retary Long has instructed the Scor-
pion to convey that diplomat TO San
Juan, where he will take a steamship
for New YORK.
The report which Minister Loomis
will make to the State Department will
have much to do with the determina-
tion Of the attitude of the United
States toward the South American re-
public. The administration Is deeply
irritated over Venezuela's conduct, and
has concluded that the time has ar
rived for this government to assert it
self and require respect and proper
treatment for American agents and
American citizens.
Mr.. Loomis' withdrawal in itself Is
an indication Of the displeasure of the
United States, and Venezuela will un-
doubtedly so receive it.
Senor Pulido, the Venezuelan charge
daffaires, sincerely regrets that any
differences should have arisen between
the two governments, and he is ener-
getically working to restore the friend
ly relations that have hitherto existed
NEW YORK, April IA dispatch to
the Herald from San Juan, Porto Rico,
says:
The Venezuelan consul here thinks
war between the United States and
Venezuela is impossible, as President
Castro will make concessions. He
sayV however, that it is probable that
Generals Andrade and Pietri will take
advantage of the recall or Minister
Loomis to start rebellion.
Adviees that came by the steamer
Philadelphia were that it would be i'm
possible to avert rebellion.
