from the gripman at the top of the
Ninth street incline at the Union Sta

scene of several fatal accidents, is 800
yards in length and descends at an
angle of As degrees to an elevated
platform.

tom of the incline was being switched

The Civil Governor Was Given q
ROusing Reception.
Eight Large Arches Erected and 10000
Natives From Neighboring Pro-
Vinces Participated in the
Demonstrations.

Manila, Aug. 2S-Civil Gov. Taft
reached here Friday morning at day
light on board the United States gun
boat Gen. Alava from Singapore,
Straits Settlement. He was welcOm-
ed with an enthusiastic popular demon
stration.
Manila, Aug. z3-The day had been
made holiday and the city was dec
GRATED. Eight large arches had been
erected on the streets. Twenty thou
sand natives from adjoining provinces
participated in the demonstrations in
honor of the governors arrival. There
was parade Of vessels in the bay and
80 decorated craft carrying members
of the civil commission, military Off
GERS and the reception committee, met
the Gen. Alva down the bay and es-
corted Gov. Taft to the entrance of
the Pasig river. The governor was
escorted by large procession to the
palace in the walled city where a pub
lie reception was held.
Responding to an address of well
come, Gov. Taft outlined the progress
and the result of his negotiations at
Rome in the matter of the Philippine
friars, and said that all church ques-
tons were progressing toward a sat
isfactOry settlement. The governor
said the action taken by congress con-
corning the Philippine islands showed
that the American people honestly de-
sired to help the Filipinos. The Am
orleans were determined the islands
should not be exploited by Americans
at the expense of the FiHpinos. Gov.
Taft predicted that eventually the
archipelago would have practically
free trade, and he congratulated the
Filipino people upon the restoration
Of peace. He advised the F1lipinos to
till the soil and restore their country
rather than waste time in useless po-
litical agitation. He promised person
ally to labor for the natives and asked
for their confidence and support.
Gov. Taft was given an ovation on
the streets of the city during his pro-
gress to the palace and he received
another ovation at his reception.

WENT OVER TRESTLE.
Three Killed and Two Badly Hurt
Near Georgetown. Ind.
Trains CoIided on the TrestIe, Cars
PiIing on the Locomotives. and .
All Went Down Into the
RaVine Below.

New Albany, Ind, Aug. 25.-In a
freight wreck on the Southern rail
way, near Georgetown, ten miles west
Of here, early Sunday, Engineer "Red1
Duval Fireman B. Cox and Brakeman
Ross, of one train, were killed out
right, and Engineer Harry GoodalI
and Fireman George Myers, of the
other train, were proably fatally hurt.
Fourteen box cars loaded with wheat
together with two locomotives were
tumbled over a trestle to a ravine 40
feet below and were demolished. All
the traffic on the southern railway
between Louisville and st. Louis has
been blocked all day. Two sections
of the through freight were coming
east and the first section, in charge Of
Conductor Walter Avis, had stopped
at Duncans to switch, leaving a cut
Of cars on the main track. There is
a heavy grade at this point, and bv
some means the cars broke away and
rolled down the track, gaining mo-
wheels. Just as the runaway cars
were approaching the trestle, the sec
Ond section, drawn by two big mo-
guls, came laundering over the hill,
and the crash occurred a moment
later. The cars piled over the loco
motives and all went down into the
ravine in heap. Both Duval and
Cox went down with their locomo-
tive. Ross was on one of the runaway
cars and was crushed beneath it. En-
gineer Goodall and Fireman Myers,
in charge of the other locomotive,
jumped and saved their lives, although
they may yet die.
Conductor A. G. Lewis and Brake
man John Burns, of the second sec
ton, jumped and escaped serious in
jury. Duvals body was taken to his
home in Louisville, and that of Ross
was sent to Midtown, Ind, his home.
Cox's remains were sent to Princeton,
where his relatives reside. Duval had
been married but a few days ago.
The loss to the railroad company will
amount to about $4,000.
Engineers Goodall and Duval, Fire
man Cox, Brakeman Ross and Myers
were buried in the debris. There was
great difficulty in extricating Myers;
his voice could be heard for hours
before he was removed. Cox, Ross and
Duval were dead when found. Good
alls right shoulder and head were
badly smashed. Brakeman Myers was
not seriously hurt Brakeman Osburn
was supposed to have been on the
cutoff cars. But little can be gained
from officials at the division here. The
wrecking train went to the scene of
the collision loaded with 'timebrs to
rebuild the trestle. Mrs. Goodall,
wife of the engineer, was taken to
Georgetown on one of the specials.
Traffic east of Huntingburg has been
All trains ran from Hunt
ingburg over the Evansville branch
thence to Louisville over the Hender-
son route From all reports this is the
worst wreck on the division in many
years. 1t is necessary to use two
locomotives for freight trains in order
to get over the hill at this point. A
gloom has been cast over Princeton.
