Passengers were in Peril.

Cheraw, Dec. 6. The accident
last night on the Chesterfield and
Lancaster railroad briefly report
cd in The State today, came near
being very serious one for a
good many passengers. There
has been freshet in Thompson's g
creek FIVE miles above here, and
the southbound train, loaded with
cotton, with the passenger coach
attached, was crossing the trestle
just over the creek when 'one cf
the benches gave way. The en-;
g'ne had gotten across, and only
the box cars went down. The
coach broke loose from them and
stopped on the upper side, while
the engine was on the lower. The
passengers were helped across
the break by m cans of tree that
was cut down by the train crew
and were brought safely to Che
raw. No one was hart, and the
damage to property was not
great.

Denial by MorrisseY.

Patrick H. Morrissey, grand general
master of the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen, passed through Chicago
yesterday from the middle part of the
state, where he had spent his vacation.
In regard to the movement of the
trainmen for increased wages "all
along the line" he said that no con-
certed action was being taken so far
as he was aware adding that the train
mems organization was growing rapid
ly and making new agreements with
railroads constantly.
The Organization of the General
Chairman's Association in Kansas CT
ty last June makes it possible for the
Brotherhood OF Railroad Trainmen to
make concerted demand for larger
wages with some hope of success
said G. F. Moore, master of Columbian
Lodge. "The association is formed OF
members of the grievance committees
of the fifty-three railway systems west
of Cleveland. Through it the lodges
of trainmen on all railway systems
can work in unison. If our demands
are not complied with we can tie ur
all railroad traffic in the west. No con
ference has been called as yet, though
one may be held after the vote has
been taken on the question of submit
ting the demand for more wages tc
| the railroads. The possibility of g
strike is extremely remote"
