sh~arpsburg, Pa. In Danger of a
catastrophe similar to That
Which Occurred Mt Sheridan.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. I3.-Sharps-
burg, a suburb of Allegheny. is excit-
ed over the wreck of a West Penn
freight train of 80 cars, loaded with
benzine, gasoline. kerosene and lubri-
eating oil, and fears are entertained
of another catastrophe, such as was
visited on Sheraden, Pa, "A few
months age, when 200 or more people
were killed and injured by an explo-
sion following Il similar wreck.
Where the wreck occurred a tank car
containing 5000 gallons of benzine
broke, and the fluid ran out, forming
in pools nj ing the tracks. There are
over 100000 gallons of infiammable
material on the track, and the train
men are keeping people away from
the wreck. Should IA spark fall from
a passing engine and ignite the ben
zine. the results would be terrible
and the engineers have been warned
to be careful while passing the scene
of the accident. No one was hurt in
the wreck.

THE GAYNOR-GREENE CASE.
The Prisoners Released From GUS

on writs of Haebas Corpus.

Quebec, Aug. 13.-Judge Caron has
ordered the release from custody of
Col. John f. Gaynor and Capt. b. ID.
Greene, in the now famous eXtradi-
ton case.
There was IA large attendance of
both legal luminaries and spectators.
The grounds on which the release
was ordered were that there was a
distinct discrepancy between the
charges upon which the various true
bills against the prisoners were OBJ
tanned in the United States. and be
tween them and that made in the APP
plication for extradition. This, as
well as the absence of dates in the
warrant the courtheld to be distinct
ly fatal to the latter, and he there
ore upheld the pris ners' claims and
their objections to the warrants,
maintained the writ of habeas corpus
and ordered the release of the pris-
OnerS.

1E CINCINNATI SAILED.
Commander M'Lean Goes to BARGE
Iona With His Vessel to Pro-
tect American Interests.
CABLE FROM THERE IS INTERRUPTED.
Neither the stntc or Navy Depart
ment Has Received Conformation
of the Press Dispatches Telling
of the PiIlagins of the American,
Italian and Dutch C~OnsuIntes,

Washington, Aug. 13.-Overnight
the navy department received word
that the Cincinnati had sailed, Tues
day, from Puerto Cabello for BARGE
Iona under the instructions cabled to
Commander Mclean directing either
the Cincinnati or Topeka to proceed
Immediately to that point. Comman-
der Mclean, who is The senior officer
present, evidently decided to go him
self and leave the Topeka to protect
American interests at Puerto Cabello.
1t is probable that the Cincinnati al
ready has arrived at Barcelona. but
that fact may not be known officially
here for several days, as Minister
Bowen cabled the state department
from Caracas, Wednesday. that the
cable from Caracas to Barcelona
again had been cut by the revolution
lists. On Monday he reported that
this cable had been cut, but pre-
sumably it had been repaired in the
interim, and his last dispatch midi
Gates that the connection again has
been lost.
Press News Dconhrmed
Neither the state nor the navy de-
partment has received confirmation
of the press dispatches from Port of
Spain, which were conveyed there
from Barcelona by boat, of the extent
of the fighting at Barcelona, and of
the report that American, Italian
and Duach consulates had been pill
LACED. The officials of the navy de-
partment are confident that Com
mander Mclean, with the Cincinnati,
will be able TO take care of Ameri-
can interests there. Owing to the
general disturbed condition of affairs
all along the line of the Venezuela
coast. and the appeals of Minister
Bowen for warships, the question
whether our naval force in those wa
tiers is sufficient to take care of the
existing situation and to meet future
contingencies has been canvassed.
No More mt Present.
For the present it has been decided
that it is unnecessary to send an adj
ditional yes sci. We now have three
ships at the three critical points, the
Cincinnati at Barcelona, the Topeka
at Puerto Cabello. where the Ger.
mans already have landed a force, and
the Marietta at the mouth of the Ori-
noco, which was declared ~blockaded
by the Castro government.
The question OF affording an asylum
TO President Sastro aboard an Amer
lean warship in ease he should be
obliged to flee from the country, and
should have 10 other means of es-
cape, has not been seriously consid-
cred by the state department, and it
is not believed that his condition at
present is desperate enough to make
such a move imperative. Besides, it
is reported through the press dis
patches, that he has n vessel at La
Guaira, upon which he can embark
for France if the necessity should
arise.

Michigan, at an early hour yesterday
morning at his summer home at Man
chester-by-the.Sea, Mass. Death was
the result of heart failure following
congestion, after an illness of very
few hours. The news came as a great
shock to his friends here, as when the
senator left Washington shortly after
the adjournment of congress he ap-
peared to be in good health and looked
forward with much satisfaction to a
quiet and restful summer.
Senator Mcmillan was a native of
Ontario. having been born in Hamil-
ton. May II, 1898. but in early life
removed to Michigan, and for many
years has been prominently identified
with the business interests and po.
litical life of that state, having for a
number of terms been chairman of
the Republican state committee. He
has been member of the senate
since March 4, 1889.
