Responsibility Fixed.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 22.-Superin-
tendent Abercrombie of the Amboy di-
vision Of the Pennsylvania railroad said
today, regarding the responsibility for
the wreck near Bordentown last night,
that Conductor Edward Sapp of the &C.
commodation train, which left Camden
at $3.50 yesterday afternoon, had instruc-
tions to wait on the siding until the
three sections of the express train had
passed. Instead of doing this, he said.
Sapp ran on to the main line after only
two sections had gone by.
Three bodies were found today in the
Raritan canal. They are those of Ital.
ian laborers and have been identified.
This makes the list of dead and the
list of injured 43-25 serious and 18
slight.
Conductor Sapp, who is badly injured,
is as his home in Bordentwon. He has
made no statement, and superintendent
Abercrombie says an explanation will
not be demanded Of him at present, as
the mental strain might prove fatal.

SHOT DOWN IN THE STREET
Renewal Of the Tolbert Trouble In
South Carolina.

Renewal OF the Tolbert Trouble In
South Carolina.
COLUMBIA, S. O., Feb. 22.-James w.
Tolbert, one of the men driven from the
Phenix section, in Greenwood county,
at the time of the election riots in No
vember, 1898, was shot down in the
street of Mccormick yesterday by a
party of masked men.
Several days ago Tolbert arrived at
Mccormick, and has been engaged in
renting his property The people of the
town did not molest him, and he paid
no attention to an anonymous letter re-
ceived advising him to leave at once.
Yesterday party of masked men rode
into town from the country and en-
countered Tolbert, who was having
some repairs done to one Of his build
ings. On being ordered to surrender,
Tolbert began shooting. He emptied his
pistol, the masked men also firing, both
parties backing away from each other
till Tolbert fell.
A young man named Martin, who
was visiting in the town, is said to be
morta not, and Tolbert's condition
is NOR serious; he was shot through
the left lung and one ar /.
town, and the feeling is that If Martin
dies Tolbert will be lynched. His
brother will attempt to have him moved
to Augusta, believing the risk better
than his remaining in Mccormick.

There is an unverifed rumor to the
effect that Consul Wildeman of Hong

One of the rescued passengers states
