LONG A MENACE TO TRAVELLERS.
Investigation of New York CentraPs
Tunnel DisclOses Defects.

Investigation of New York Centrars
Tunnel DisclOses Defects.
A dispatch from New York last night
says: The coroner's inquest to determine
the responsibility for the death Of seven
teen persons in the New York Central rail-
road tunnel last week was begun today
Coroner Schoyler presided. District Attor-
ney Jerome and attorneys representing the
various interests at stake were in attend
ance.
The district attorney addressed the men,
bers of the jury, saying, in part:
"It may be that there were one or more
persons criminally responsible for the
deaths of the victims of this disaster. 1t is
your duty to say whether these victims
came to their deaths through criminal neg
ligence of some person. This is your prov
ince, and if you go beyond it you yield per-
haps to public clamor and you do not there
by aid the cause of Justice.
William T. Devine, a passenger on the
New Rochelle train, testified that the train
had been standing still for about a minute
before the collision.
Policeman Patrick H. Fox said he asked
Wisker, engineer Of the White Plains train,
what had caused the accident, and Wisker
replied: There was a train passing, and
the smoke and steam shut off the signals"
During the afternoon session Joseph H.
Franklin. manager of the Grand Central
depot, was on the stand. The district at
torney questioned him. He admitted that
he had received many complaints from
trainmen regarding the signal lights in the
tunnel. These men had called his attention
to the fact that on foggy days the lights
could be seen only very short distance.
$50, especially during the winter months
in New York." District Attorney Jerome
asked, there are many days on which the
signals in the tunnel can be seen only a
very short distance?"
Witness admitted that this was the case.
On the day of the wreck, however he said
he considered that conditions were very IA
vorable. He said that 323 schedule trains
ran through the tunnel every day.
Mr.. Franklin said he was under the or
ders of President Newman Of the New
York Central and President Hall of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford road.
He said he had spoken to them about the
tunnel lights when they had taken him to
task about trains being late. Nothing in
particular. he said, had been done about the
complaints of the engineers concerning the
lights.
Answering Mr.. Jerome, Manager Franklin
admitted that the murky morning on which
the disaster occurred was the first time
Engineer Wfsker had taken a passenger
train through the tunnel.
Counsel for Wisker asked to put some
questions to Mr.. Franklin. but the district
attorney objected. and the coroner sus-
tained the objection. Adjournment was
had until tomorrow,

Of dyspepsia and disordered digestion
Almost everybodys digestion is disordered more
or less and the commohest thing they do FOR it Is
to take some one Of the many so-called blood
purifiers, which in many cases are merely strong
cathRrties Such things not needed. the
organs are in clogged condition. they need only
little help and they viii right themselves. Ca
thartics irritete the sensitive Innings OF the stom-
ach and bowels and often do more harm than good.
Purging is not what is needed. The thing to do
Is to put the food in condition 10 be readily d.
gested AMI assmilated. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
do this perfectly. They partly digest what is eaten
ana give the stomach just the help Il needs. They
rtlmulate the secretion and excretion OF the d.
gestive fluids and relieve the congested condition Of
the glands and membranes. They put the whole
digestive sys,em in condition to do its work When
that Is Gone you need take more tablets unless
you eat what does not agree with you Then take
one or two tabets-sive them needed help and you
will have no trouble.
It's common sense medicine and a common

only cure the disease, but cure the cause. Goes

INTERESTING COLLECTIONS
NATIONAL MUSEUM RECEIVES SOME
VALUABLE MEMENTOs.
Vases Unearthed From Ruins of
Southern Mexican Cities-knfves,
Dirks and Swords.

The National Museum has received with
in the past several days, through Profes-
sors Holmes and Beckwith. two collections
of more than ordinary interest. The first
is small collection from Mexico and Cen
trail America, received from parties employ
ed in that field by the museum. This col
lection consists in part of five vases, un-
earthed from the ruined cities of Militia, in
southern Mexico, and Copan, in Honduras,
and, according to Prof. Holmes, they are
examples of the finest and rarest ware
made by the ancient Mixtecs and Zapotecs.
He states that the workmanship on these
vases represents the highest degree of skill
ever attained by the aboriginal races. Two
of the vases are made to initiate copper or
metal, by peculiar glaze given TO the
surface of each, and by a series of indenta-
tions resembling hammered or repousse
metal work. The imitation is so perfect
that one has to look twice to discover that
the vase, which is very thin and extreme
y hard is made OF clay.
One of the vases dug up from the ruins
of Militia is modelled in the form of war
rior wearing headdress of feathers. 1t is
bright red in color. Another vase OF ivory
colored ware is modelled to represent an In
dian priest offering sacrif1ce After the
vases comes an altar stone from the
same locality the red vase, on which ap-
pear, sculptured in relief, two priests OF
fering sacrifice on an altar. Above them,
in the sky evidently, is a house, from an
opening in which the head and arm OF a
god protrude. The hand of the god, clasp
ing a vessel, is extended downward, as
though accepting the sacrifice. The last
object of this first collection is a small
mask carved out of green jadeite In the
form Of a human face and highly polished.
Filipino Weapons.
The second collection is much larger one.
and consists of a complete set of all the
various kinds of knives, dirks and swords
used by the natives of the Philippine Is
lands. These the museum obtained from a
Mr. Harkins. a young Georgian just re-
turned from the island, where he served in
the army. The museum Is, by reason OF
this purchase, now for the first time in pos
session of a fun set of Filipino weapons.
Each weapon has its peculiar shape, name
and use. Some are for slashing, others IoI
decapitating, others for stabbing, While one
very peculiar weapon, the 'sandang, with
a long curved handle of carabao horn that
prevents any one from striking with II, Is
a puzzle Prof. Beckwith being unable to
discover for what use it was intended. The
names are curious. For example, there are
the krees, the cambong, the pra, the ter
ciada and the sandang, and, according te
Prof Beckwith, the forms of these weapons
denote the rank of those who carry them.
He states that these weapons are manu-.
featured on the Island of Mlndanao, ano
that the classification given them by the
| Moros is accepted in all the Islands OF the
| Philippine archipelago.

OBJECTION TECHNICAL.
Correspondence Regarding the Plac-
ing of a Sign.

A clause in the last permit issued rela-
tive to the hanging of a sign by the Chesa-
peake and Potomac Telephone Company IN
front of a telephone pay station has caused
j. N. c. Graham, the company's general
foreman of maintenance, to communicate
with the District Commissioners. Accord
ing to Mr.. Graham the practice has been
to secure a blanket permit covering
large number of signs, and to file the names
and addresses of subscribers at whose
places they are erected in the form of let
tiers in the office of the inspector of build
ings.
In view of the clause referred to, which
stipulate that the sign must be securely
stayed so as not to swing with the wind,
Mr.. Graham called to see the superinten-
dent of police and the inspector of build
ings. The latter, it is said, agreed that the
sign that has been used is mechanically
correct.
In reporting to the Commissioners on the
matter. Major Sylvester says:
The question does not arise as to the
permission for placing these signs in front
OF stations, but simply to whether they
snail be firm or swinging. After an ex-
animation into the matter l am of the opin-
ion that signs suspended as proposed would
be by far the safest, and if the noise is OBJ
Jectional 1t seems to me they could be or
dered removed. 1 think that while there
might be technical objection under the
existing police regulations the intent of the
requirements will be carried out if the
signs are placed as proposed"
