Xenia, o., July es.-A wreck oc-
CURED at 1880 last night at Trebin
station, three miles from here. when
train No. 2. the Pennsylvania limited
from St. Louis to New York, was
met by a wild coal car at the foot
of a heavy grade. The number Of
dead and injured is not easily ascer-
tanned, because the wreckage took
fire and all but two Pullman cars in
the rear were burned. The train
was behind and was running at the
rate of 70 miles an hour to make up
lost time. Besides the postal and
express cars, 1t consisted of a day
coach and several sleepers.
In some manner = car loaded with
coal became unloosened from its
couplings and went down a three
mile grade, gaining velocity as it
went. At the bottom of the grade it
crashed into the passenger train.
OF the coal car there is scarcely to
be found a trace, so completely was
IT splintered. The passenger engine
is mass of ruins. while the postal
and express cars were piled on top Of
II III pTOAuiSCuoue ntdp- AinoSb
simultaneous with the first crash the
gas tanks under the cars exploded
and set fire to the ruins. Instantly
cries could be heard from the mass
Of wreekage. Passengers who had
themselves suffered injuries forgot
their pain in witnessing the suffer-
ings of those whom, on account Of
their own injuries, they were unable
to rescue.
The injured were taken to Xenia,
where not only the hotels but private
houses were opened for their acconi-
modations. Those not hurt We're ta-
ken TO Columbus to resume their
journey. The engineer, William
Clark, of this city, was buried be-
meath his engine and his body was
burned to ashes. His fireman, VIII
liam Dwyer, OF Cincinnati. was hor-
ribly mangled and thrown clear from
the engine. OF the four postal clerks
on the train two were killed. All
baggage WAS burned

Boston, July 26.-Edward M. Shep-
ard, Of New York, held up by william
J. Bryan, Of Nebraska, as the most
pronounced sample Of harmony
democrat" was sensational feature
Of the big harmony dinner of the
New England Democratic league and
Is being discussed by the politicians
here, some Of whom believe Mr..
Shepard in q man upon whom the
party might unite in 1904.
The argument used Is that Mr..
Shepard Is known as q reformer; that
he may be mayor Of New York city
or governor Of New York state. and
as such would be a formidable can
didate for the presidency from the
most important state in the east, and
that, with the indorssment of the
Bryan element, he would consolidate
both wings Of the democratic party
in that state In speaking of Mr..
Shepard Mr.. Bryan used these words;
Il am glad 10 see n representative of
the state Of New York, representa-
tive Of the democracy of that state.
When he gives advice I am willing TO
listen. for / know that in 1900 he was
willing TO throw aside the objections
he had 20 some parts Of the demo-
cratic platform. He has shown his
willingness to overlook those things
which he thought important in order
TO secure a Victory for those poll
eies which he considered paramount.
However much / may differ with him
reCa rt1fnn fhe ral.fswa tu,w0rfo.~a
Of questions regarding the prece-
denee of issues, am willing TO listen
TO the opinion Of any democrat who
proves by his vote that he is a dem
ocrat."
Although the suggestion was gen.
orally discussed after the meeting,
Mr.. Bryan, when seen just before
leaving for his Maine tour. denied in
a manner any intention of starting
a shepard presidential boom. II
never discuss mans candidacy"
said Mr.. Bryan. II simply meant
what said-that here was n man
who disagreed with his party so en-
tircly in 1896 that he felt constrained
because of his own convictions to
leave It, and who in 1900 returned to
his party, not that he entirely agreed
with the platform of the party, but
because he recognized that some
principles which he considered of
paramount Importance were things
for which the party stood. In other
words. he wanted harmony and was
able to harmonize his ideas in the
main with those af the party"

PREPARING FOR TROUBLE.
Six Hundred Marines Awaiting Orders to
go to Panama If Necessary.

Washington, Sept. 23. - Secretary
Moody has finally decided to augment
the United States naval forces on the
isthmus by the addition of 600 marines
if Commander McIean's advices indi-
cate that these are needed. He has
given orders TO Commander Pilsbury,
Of the United States ship Prairie, now
at Boston, to proceed with his ship to
Norfolk. At that point 600 marines
will be gathered ready to take ship
when Secretary Moody's advices indi-
cate the necessity for their presence on
the isthmus.
The Panther should arrive at Colon
within a day or two with $50 marines
aboard, so that, with the Prairie's men
and the marines on the Cincinnati,
who are already ashore at Colon, the
United States will have what is regard
ed as an ample force to carry out its
treaty obligation of maintaining free
traffic across the isthmus.
Orders have also been sent forward
to the San Francisco, now at Norfolk,
to coal and provision and proceed to
San Juan, Porto Rico, there to await
any emergency which may arise. There
is only one United States warship now
in Venezuelan waters. The little gum
boat Marietta and the Montgomery are
due to arrive shortly at Cape Haytien.
The object of the department in
sending down the San Francisco, it is
stated, is to have vessel ready TO
meet call for reinforcements, either
in Venezuela, Hayti or the isthmus.
The duty assigned to the San Francisco
should not be confused with that given
the gunboat Bancroft. That vessel
probably will not be able to go into
commission until October /, and will
proceed to San Juan to be station ship.
1t is expected that the San Francisco
will get away in three or four days.

TOUR ABANDONED
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT Is LAID UP
BY AN ABCESS.
His Affection Is the Result OF the Recent
Trolley Car Accident = Operation was
Performed Successfully and President
Placed on His Special Train - Case is
In No Wise Serious.

indianapolis, Sept. 25. - President
Roosevelt's Western trip came to an
untimely end in this city yesterday.
He was found to be suffering from q
swelling Of the left leg, between the
knee and the ankle, that required inn
mediate surgical attention, and instead
of being taken to his train to continu-
the journey to Fort Wayne and Mil
waukee, he was conveyed to st. Vim
cents hospital, where he was operated
on. The operation occurred at 3:45
o'clock, and lasted only short time,
when he was taken to a private room
in the hospital to rest. After taking a
light luncheon at $50 P. NJ, he was
conveyed on stretcher to his train,
which had backed up on a "Y" near
the hospital, and at 1850 the train left
for Washington.
The accident which betell him at
Pitisfeld, Mass, when a trolley car
crashed into his carriage, is responsible
for the sudden ending of the presi-
DENTS trip. and his Eeing compelled to
undergo the operation. In that acci-
dent his knee was badly bruised and an
abscess quickly formed which gave him
some trouble, but not enough at first
to interfere with his plans. DR.. Lung,
his Official physician, together with DR..
Richardson, who accompanied him on
the trip, deemed it advisable yesterday
to consult other doctors. Accordingly
Drs. Oliver and Cook we're called to the
Columbia club, where the president
was to be entertained at lunch. They
decided that an operation was neces-
sary, and that it should be performed
at once. This decision was arrived at
before luncheon, but was not allowed
to interfere with the meal.
The announcement came as o thun-
derclap out OF clear sky. The presi-
dent appeared in such good health
otherwise that it was hard to believe
that he was about to undergo an opera
ton. He had delivered an address
earlier in the day before the Spanish
American war veterans, and also ad
dressed the citizens of Indianapolis
from the balcony Of the Commercial
club. He was the picture of health,
and many comments we're made during
the early part of the day on how well
he looked. 1t was noticed, however,
that he walked with slight limp.

TROOPS TO THE SCENE.
Striking Miners Resist Sheriffs. Who Call
on the Governor for Aid.

Scranton, Pa, Sept. Sheriff
Schadt, of Lackawana county, tonight
telegraphed Governor Stone to send
tiooDs to his assistance. The sheriff
had just given to the newspapers a
proclamation announcing he would call
the troops il the lawlessness did not
cease, when he received series of tele-
phone calls to quell disturbances up
the valley. He found ON investigation
that the situation was such that he
could not cope with it, and sent call
for troops. Adjutsnt General Stewart
called the sheriff by telephone, and had
d long talk with him. The adjutant
general suggested posse OF citizens be
called upon for assistance. While the
sheriff was preparing to act upon this
suggestion he received more reports Of
violence up and down the valley, and
at once sent another urgent telegram to
the governor, calling for immediate
assistance, and the Thirteenth regi-
ment, with headquarters here, was
ordered out.
The worst of tonight's outbreaks oc-
CURED at Archbold. A crowd of 200
strikers, mostly foreigners, ransacked
the quarters occupied by the 40 men
employed at the Raymond washery Of
the Ontario & Western company, while
the men we're at work, and then meet
ing with the men as they were return
ing, drove them back to the refuge OF
the washery. The mob then returned
to the colliery proper, drove out the
engineers, iremen, pumpmen and
guards and took possession OF the
breaker. The plant Of the electric light
company, which is supplied with steam
from the breaker; had to shut down,
and the whole region around was left
in darkness. In the attack on the
breaker, two men we're shot. one
striker and the other a workman.
Chief Deputy Sheriff Miles Nc.
Andrew was attacked and shot at by
mob at Oliphant. The steam pipes Of
the ennsylvania Coal company's col.
liery at Old Forge were blown up with
dynamite tonight. Two coIored cooks
at the colliery we're rescued by deputy
sheriffs from a crowd that was hasten
ing to lynch them.

n Taken Out Of Burnt District and Used
Within Three Years.
Portland, Sept. 25,--J. A. Buckly,
who controls large amount OF timber
land in Skamania county, Washington,
in the region so recently devastated by
the forest fires, has just returned from
an inspection OF the damage wrought
by the destructive blaze. Mr.. Buckly
says:
'tThe fire worked eastward from
Wind river to the Lewis river country,
burning strip of territory from 10
to Is miles wide all the way. This
strip is about 10 miles back from the
river and lies in nearly an easterly and
westerly direction. The timber on
eight or nine townships was destroyed,
and it is estimated that it amounts to
4 900, 900, 900 or 5000, 900, 900 feet in
all. A good deal of it is simply killed,
and can be saved il it can be cut and
brought out within the next four years.
"The fires were started by careless
settlers and campers, who build blaze
up against big cedar log, and then go
away and leave it burning. 1t soon
spreads and then all the surrounding
country becomes involved. Such fires
we're started near Stevenson and Wash
ougal, and they were, l think, the main
causes for the forest fires that fol-
lowed"

TO REWARD ARMY OFFICER.
General Chaffee Recommends a Medal of
Honor for Williams.

Washinton, Sept. 23. = Lieutenant
Kenneth P. Williams, First infantry,
has been recommended by General
Chaffee for a congressional medal of
honor for his skill and bravery in
leading sthe relief expedition to the
rescue of the marine detachment, which
completed the now famous march across
the island of Samar. A noteworthy
portion of General Chaffee's letter reads
as follows:
"Not again in your military career,
nor in that OF the men accompanying
you on this arduous undertaking, will
conditions likely arise that will render
you the opportunity of rendering such
unread Of and never o-be- forgotten
services to your country, which entities
you to greater thanks and to the ma
tion's gratitude.
Rear Admiral Rogers letter states
that "the marine detachment would
undoubtedly have perished to a man,
had II not been for the interchangeable
exertions of Lieutenant Kenneth P.
Williams"

RAIN DID MUCH GOOD.
Saved Crops, Stopped Fires, and Insures
Winter Grazing.

Denver, Sept. 24.--Fhe continuous
rain that fell over the entire eastern
portion Of Colorado, beginning with a
heavy precipitation last night at 5
O'Clock and continuing until about
noon today in milder form, has saved
the late crops and placed the ranges in
splendid condition for the grazing of
cattle during the coming winter. ALI
fears Of shortage of water, both for
human and animal use, are allayed
Reports from different places in the
mountains are to the effect that snow
fell during the night to depth varying
from three to eight inches, and that
the forest fires that have been burning
for month or more have been
quenched. 1t seems that the rain and
snow we're general on the eastern slope
of the Rockies from Montana tc New
Mexico. On the western slope the pre-
cipitation was fitful.

BIG FIRE IN ISLAND CITY.
Destroyed Mills, Wheat and Houses, and
Threatened Entire City.

La Grande, Or, Sept. 25.-Fire, in
Island City, yesterday afternoon,
destroyed $1,000 worth of property.
The Pioneer Touring mill caught fire
at $3.50 O'CLOCK and was completely
destroyed, together with an adjoining
grain elevator. The flames spread
rapidly and in short time the Island
City Mining & Milling Company,s
implement warehouse was in ashes,
Continuing the fire destroyed harness
shop, blacksmith shop, tannery, three
residences and the only church in the
town.
A high wind was blowing at the time
and it looked for while as though the
whole town was doomed. Everything
was at the mercy of the flames, with
no protection, excepting what could
be afforded by hand pumps and water
buckets. By hard work two ware
houses containing $4,000 bushels OF
wheat we're saved, though some 10000
bushels near by were consumed.
The value of the mill plant is esti.
mated at so, 900, with $4,000 insur-
anee on wheat and mill. The value
of the Implements, machinery and
warehouse is $Sl 10000; insurance,
$4,000. There was no insurance on
the residences, and only 81 900 on the
church. The mill will be rebuilt at
once.
