TWENTY MILES AN HOUR
SPEED OF CAR THAT STRUCK
 PRESIDENTS PARTY.

John B. smith, secretary In 0oVeFhoE
 Crane, Tolls His Opinions-Motorman
 Madden Did Not Think tho carriage
 Was Going to Cross the Tracks at fhe
 Point It Did.
 Boston, Sept. 4.--Some new facts of interest bearing upon the distressing accident to the presidents party at Pittsfeld are given by John B. Smith. secretary to Governor Crane, who was in the third carriage behind that occu- pied by the president, and who saw the accident. MT. Smith returned to the state house to-day and his story carries with it considerable weight, as he is a veteran newspaper man accustomed to making close observation of incidents. He says that, in his judgment, the car was going about twenty miles an hour. He says that there were no shrieks or wells at the moment of the collision, and as A matter of fact, the silence !
 was appalling.
 Secretary Smith says that he talked with Motorman Madden directly after the accident, and the latter stated that his car was going about eight miles an hour, and that he did not think that the carriage of the president was going to cross at the point it did.
 About the place where the accident happened MT. Smith explains that the street bears little to the left. About two hundred feet beyond where Driver Pratt attempted to cross the tracks the Eside roadway on which the president lcarriage had been going terminated. A greensward at this further point came
 flush with the street car tracks. The railway continued straight on up How ards Hill.
 Driver Pratt's object was of course to cross the tracks and strike the car riage road on the other side. Accord. inglv the carriage could have kept tt the side it was on for almost two hun
 dred feet q am of the opinion that i | it had kept there one hundred feet tht
 car would undoubtedly have swept b! it." MT. Smith said. "The motorman,
 think, must have thought that the car
 riage would remain on the right of tn tracks for little distance further ant
 therefore he increased his speed to rusl
 by before the crossing, which had to b made shortly, should be attempted" Governor Crane telephoned to Secre tary Smith to-day that he was all right ; but greatly shocked by the occurrence

tchelI Favored Settlement.

Huntington, w. Va, Sept. 1.-The bi- luminous coal strike in West Virginia is at an end. At a mass meeting of miners from all the coal fields along the Norfolk and Western Railway here to-day it was al- most unanimously agreed to end the strike provided the operators will take back all the old miners and the latter have signified their intention of doing this. The miners have agreed to re- turn to work next Monday morning. It is reported that President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers advised the strikers to return to work as he reallz- ed that winter is near at hand and the miners in this field could not hold out much longer as almost every one is de- pendent upon the union for food and clothing. It is thought the strikers in the New River and Kanawha fields will soon follow the action of the strik- CTS on the Norfolk and Western.
