FATAL STREET CAR COLLISION
d NEAR ALBANY, NEW YORK

Albany, n. Y, May 27.-Electric cars
racing for a switch while running in
opposite directions, at the rate of forty
miles an hour, cost five lives yesterday
afternoon by n terrific collision, in
which over forty prominent people
were injured, some fatally and others
seriously. tHf ct
The lobby Of the local postoffice filed
with dead and wounded, hysterical
women and children looking for rela-
tives and friends, surgeons admins
tering temporary relief and ambu-
lances racing through the city, taking
the wounded to hospitals, were the
early intimations of the accident.
The scene Of the accident was at n
point about two miles out Of Green's
bush. on the line Of the Albany &
Hudson railway The point where the
cars met on the single track was at n
sharp curve, and so fast were both
running and SO sudden was the colli-
sion that, the motormen never had time
to put on the brakes before south
bound car No. 22 had gone almost
clean through north bound car No. II,
and hung on the edge of a high bluff,
with Its load OF shrieking, MANNED hu-
manity. One rhotorman was pinioned
The state herald., 1901-05-31

up against the smashed front of the
south bound ear with both legs sever
ed, and was killed instantly, while the
other one lived but few minutes.
Fully 10 men, women and children
formed n struggling, shrieking pyra-
mid framed with blood, detached por-
tions of human bodies and the wreck
age of cars. Some of the more slight
ly injured of the men extricated them
selves and began TO pull people out OF
the rear ends of the two ears. AL
most every one was taken out in this
way. and nearly all were badly in
jured.
With both mctormen killed II was
hard to get at the real cause Of the ac-
cident, but 1t was pretty well deter
mined that 1t was caused by an at
tempt Of the south bound car to reach
second switch instead Of waiting for
the north bound car at the first siding.
The cars weigh fifteen tons each and
are the largest electric cars built, and
so frightful was the crash that both
cars were torn almost to splinters.
Both ears were filed with Sunday
pleasure seekers returning from the
new recreation grounds that the rail-
way had just opened.

ALASKAN PROSPECTOR.
FOR YEARS HE USED A STEAM
~ YACHT IN ALASKAN
tlaE WATERS. Ff-. ,r.,
Travelled 5000 Miles In One season.-His
Wife Sailed with Him In His Quest for
Gold. Now = Prosperous Mine Owner
and . Wcll-Known Geological.

Prospecting In a steam yacht is an
experience which few mining men have
enjoyed. 1t remained, says the Den
YER News, for Il Colorado man to de-
yelop the idea and disclose Its possi-
bilities. The happy Individual is j.;
G. Davies. guest of the st. James
hotel. Mr.. Davies went from this.
state to Alaska sixteen years ago.
After trudging laborlously over the
vast region for ten years he decided to
try the water route. In one of the ports
of the Northwest he bought n steam
launch and the first season covered
5000 miles along the coast and on the
great rivers. His family accompanied
him and for several years Mrs. Davies
was his constant companion on the
long trips in search Of the yellow metal.
She has travelled n greater distance
in Alaska than any other woman liv-
ing, and her experiences would be in-
teresting reading In the quiet homes
of the states. tut
The Colorado prospector was fortu-
nate in his explorations, and to-day he
is mine owner and goes prospecting
| only as diversion. Mr. Davies IL n
| geologist of wide reputation in the

an acquaintance with all the mining
camps except those far in the interior
and practical knowledge of geology
which he learned in this state before
visiting Alaska placed him mt great
advantage over the ordinary prospect
or. He estimates, as n result of his
patient investigations, that Alaska will
produce thirty per cent more gold this
year than last, and the increase will
continue for two or three years. After
that time there will be n slump, as the
richer streaks of the leading placer
deposits will he worked over and the
period of lode mining will be reached.
The possibilities of the immense lodes
he does not pretend to announce.
Mr.. Davies is in the state upon sew
eral missions, one of which Is TO exam
Inc the chlorination plants and learn
the latest methods Of treating low
grade ores. He says the people of Ju-
neau will provide the capital for plants
when they are assured that the right
process has been secured.

PRESIDENT AND CABINET
4 CONSIDER CHINESE QUESTION

Ogden, Utah, May 26.-4Mrs. McKin-
ley had passed comfortable night
crossing the Sierras last night but the

On the way back to Washington the
President and members of the cabinet
are devoting a good deal Of time to
the consideration of the Chinese situa-
tion. The declination of the other
powers to7join in the suggestion with
regard to- scaling down the indemnity
demanded of China was a, great disap-
pointment, though it could hardly be
said that 1t was entirely unexpected.
The necessities of European powers of
the maintenance of their large armies
and navies are, perhaps a factor in
their present action. The President and
members Of the Cabinet feel that this
government was right In protesting
against exactions which might force
China to the wall, and from the posi-
tion taken by the United States there

DENVER SALOONS ARE
NOW OPEN TO WOMEN

Denver, May 27.-The close season
ION the midnight and Sunday restau-
rant-saloon in Denver has + zen official
ly declared OF by Judge Palmer In the
district court and by the fire and police
board In obedience to the action Of the
court. Judge Palmer also decided that
women were entitled to the same privi-
lege as men to purchase liquors. This
decision was the result OF petition
for an Injunction filed by J.J. Cronin,
who conducts the saloon and wine
room at Eighteenth and Champa
streets.
The opening OF the saloons after mid
night and on Sunday was the result Of
an application for an injunction made
by /. +. Staucr OF the Chesapeake oys-
ter & Fish Company against the fire
and police board OF the. city restrain
Ing the board from Interfering with
him in the selling Of liquors with
meals.
Judge Palmer issued the injunction
without hesitation. The application OF
the plaintiff recites that the board and
chief of police are acting In violation
OF the statute In Interfering with the
sale OF liquors Mt meals. .s..
The arguments used In the case OF
Cronln's application were that women
have the same rights as men In this
state and these rights extend to the
purchase of liquors at the public bars.
lf the suit is decided In favor OF Gro
min It will have the effect OF intro
ducing an Anglican feature into our
civilization.
Concerning the action Of the police
authorities In the matter, President
Adams Of the fire and police board
said there would he no attempt to close
restaurants Sunday because liquor was
sold. H. II
Police Commissioner Bottom cx-
pressed himself In much the snme
language as President Adams.
Eve win refer this matter 10 the
city attorney and he can file his an
swer ms soon as he plenses. Until the
injunction is dissolved. however, they
should all he treated alike"
Excise Commissioner Griiiith was In
favor of bringing the matter TO hear

THE FIRST SUNDAY SCHOOL,.
It was Started by John Wesley In savau
nah, Georgia.

I nah, Georgia. M
1t IL generally believed that Robert
Raikes is the father of Sunday
schools. but the people of Savannah
say that John Wesley anticipated him
by more than forty-four years. Robert
Raikes was a printer In Gloucester,
England, and in 1880 began to gather
ragged street urchins about him and
teach them the catechlsm anu tell
them stories of the Scriptures. In
May, 1876, John Wesley organized a
Sunday school for children in .Savar-
nah and taught them the Bible and the
catechism. He was assisted by Mo.
ravian gentleman named Delamotta.
The location of Mr. Wesley's Sunday
school is not positively known, but the
antlquarans of Savannah agree that
1t must have been at the corner of Bull
street and Bay lane, where the GUS
