Missouri Sheriff Held Responsible for
Lynchlng.

Adjutant General Cameron, in a re-
port to Governor Dockery on the recent
Pierce City race war, holds Sheriff
Manlove of Lawrence county respou-
sible for the lynching of the three in
nocent negroes. Adjutant Cameron,
who was sent to Pierce City to investi-
gate the affair, says in his report:
"Will Cooley and Gene Carter had
been suspected and the sheriff and his
posse went out to arrest them, but for
some cause did not see fit to do so.
Monday the excitement at Pierce City
was intense and threats OF lynchinr
certain negroes, thought to be impli-
Gated in the murder OF Miss Wild, were
made openly. Under this excitement
the sheriff saw fit to leave for his home
at Mount Vernon.
sit is generally believed in Pierce
City that had Sheriff Manlove remained
there during Monday when the excite
nent ran high and threats OF lynch
ing were openly made, and asked
the aid of the militia, the trouble
and loss of life would have been
averted."

or less affected, the great volume of
raging water vented its anger over
miles OF the eastern portion of the city
and caused an amount of damage esti-
mated at 81 900, 900.
The overflow was caused by heavy
rain that commenced to fall shortly
after o'clock, turning into a perfect
cloudburst between the hours of and

until nearly 10 o'clock The storm,
according to weather officials, was the

ment bureau in that city, over forty
years ago. There was no loss Of life.

America.
u. +. Baer, president of the Phila-

just returned from Europe, tells of a
remarkable impression which, he AYERS.
Is general throughout Germany.
Germany" he snid, ''is watching
with interest the development of the
troubles In South Africa and Central
America. The interest is not because
England is engaged in war in Africa,
nor because the South American re-
pnolics are having probably a little
more than their usual amount of revo-
lutionary excitement.
"The real reason, when I found II.
startled me. The Germans believe that
all these troubles have been fomented
by America for the express purpose Of
obtaining possession of both disputed
territories. They say that America
brought about the Spanish war simply
to get Cuba, Porta Rico aud the Philip
pines, and that this country will not
be satisfied without holdings in Africa
and South America. They look upon
Cuba as actually part of the United
States and do not believe that this
country will ever give freedom to that
island"

FORTY KILLED IN WRECK
NEAR kALISPELL, MONT.
WIG Train OF Twenty Eight Freight Cars
crashes Into Rear of fPassengsr-Firs
Finishes Destruction.

Probably the worst wreck In the
annals OF western railroadipg occurred
hfty miles east of Kaiispell, Montana
Saturday morning, on a steep grade
A freight train of tventy-eight cars
winch bad broken loose from two
engines, crashed into the rear of q
passenger train, while running at q
speed of upward of seventy miles pei
| hour Superintendent L. l.. Downs oil
the road. and his son L. Kirk, in a
private car at the rear of the train
were instantly killed. In the car di.
rectly ahead were about fifty railroad
laborers, and thirty-six of these were
either instantly killed or incinerated
in fire that followed the wreck.
with roar the runaway train burst
around curve behind the passenger
and, what is most remarkable, Jumped

1t to the sidetrack, and crashed into
the rear of westbound passenger No. 8
near the siding at Nyack.

switch il struck coboose and day
coach on the siding, wrecked them,
and the fire started from the oil lamps
IN the caboose. The point where the
wild train crashed into the passenger
was several hundred feet away, and
1T was two and half hours before the
names reached the main wreck.
Meanwhile frantic efforts were made
to take out the dead and injured The
wreck was piled high and wedged into
almost hopeless confusion, and in spite
OF superhuman efforts the flames
burned their way to the wrecked cars
before the work was completed.
1t appears that the wreck was caused
by an east-bound freight train of
twenty-eight cars, which was at Essex,
and that the head engine went forward,
leaving helper engine in the rear to
hold the train. The helper engine set
the air brakes and left the train stand
ing on the track and went to coal up.
Conductor Matthews was in the office
getting orders, and both brakemen
were with the engineer. 1t is believed
that the air leaked and that the train
slipped away without the crew know
ing about it, and dashed down the
mountain at tremendous rate of
speed, variously estimated at from rs
to 100 miles an hour, going down the
hill a distance of seventeen miles, when
1T overlook the passenger. The train
was moving in the same direction as
the runaway, otherwise the disaster
would have been greater.
The men on the passenger train had
not the slightest warning of their dan
ger There is nothing of the wreck
left but smouldering ashes and burnt
and twisted iron rods and chains.

OF President Shaffer of the Amalga-

cause it is charged Shaffer compelled
the stesl-workers to violate con- tracts:
because he expelled the Chicago men.

The imperial edict forbidding the

the foreign ministers. A meeting of
the ministers has been called to discuss
the edict. 1t ignores the vital fact
that the prohibition applies to the
government and that it is part of the
Chinese punishment. The edict makes
1t appear to be merely the govern

Chinese subjects from importing arms

opinion that the results achieved fully
warranted the experiments that are
being carried on In Cuba
''We must not look simply at the
deaths of the three persons in Havana" I"
said Dr. Doty, "but we must consider
also the incalculable number of lives
that will be saved by this absolute
proof that mosquitoes carry yellow
fever. This is the only way to find 1t
out.
"We now know beyond question that
people must protect themselves by net
ting, especially at night, from mos
quitoes in districts infected with yell
low fever, and that they must get rid
by drainage and other means of the
unsanitary conditions that favor the
propagation of mosquitoes"
