SIX WORKMEN FALL
WITH SCAFFOLDING

Philadelphia, Aug.' s. Six men
were badly hurt yesterday by the col
lapse Of a trestle at the city's new
filtration plant in course Of construc-
ton for the city at Torresdale. a
suburb The injured are: John j. Sui
livan. James F. Higgins. William
Kirk. James Fernan. d. r. Bryan,
Philip Coyle and James Danston.
All of the injured men excepting
Danston were at work on the trestle.
Danston was working with about 40
other laborers beneath the structure,
and il is regarded as miraculous that
his companions escaped injury. The
trestle was being built, and the acci-
dent was caused by a weak support,
which gave way, resulting in the col
lapse of the superstructure, which in
falling carried the workmen to the
ground.
Danston's injuries are comparative
ly slight. but all of the others were in
jured internally. besides sustaining
broken bones.

ITS 18TH ANNIVERSARY
War Department Vas Created August
Z. l7N9

Washington. Aug S-One hundred
and thirteen years ago yesterday the
first Congress Of the United States,
then convened In New York city, pass
ed an act creating the department OF
war and defining its functions. This
new branch of the executive covered
much that is now under the iurisdic-
ton Of the navy department, the gem
eral land Office, and the bureau of In
dian aflairs It's first secretary was
Henry Knox, of Massachusetts,.
The army has kept pace with the de-
partment The total of the establish
ment in 1775 was about 10000. although
no more than half this number We're ac-
tually In service. At the close Of the
Revolutionary war all but 1000 were
disbanded. AT the beginning of the
Civil war the United States had reg
ular army OF 1900 men. During the
four years following the total enlist
ment was 2.6SS,52S War ended, the
army was gradually decreased until in
1875 It contained but $4,000. The Span
ish war brought another wave. and the
military establishment rose TO 103.1 $50.
The reduction since then has been ef-
feeted by disbanding volunteers aud
increasing the number Of regulars until

killed. John Carter is supposed to

arose between the Carter and Lynch
factions One OF the men were seen
to reach for his pistol and a general
fight ensued in which guns and pis-
tolls were brought into action.
Brooks Carter and Highpeach were
instantly killed and Richmond was

COAL OPERATORS TO ACT

VIII Resume Work In a Few Days
Or Grant Concessions.
Scranton, Pa, Aug. S.-Yesterday's
developments in the coal strike lead
to the belief that a concerted action is
being considered by the presidents of
the coal-carrying roads and that there
will soon be a crisis in the situation.
The coal presidents evidently believe
the strike has continued long enough,
and they are preparing to take decisive
action.
Nce-Presient e. E. Loomis, of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Company, is here looking over the situ-
alton and making a careful investiga-
ton. At a meeting of the presidents Of
the coal carrying roads, in New York,
recently, he was selected to make an
investigation and report to the coal
presidents. That he is obtaining def
mite information for that report is
quite evident, and on the report and
his possible recommendations some de-
cided action will undoubtedly be taken.
It will either be an attempt to resume
work with the men who are ready and
willing to return. and in that manner
try and break the strike, or it will be a
plan to offer concessions.

Primeval North America.
From Harper's Magazine.

FROM Harper Magazine.
The prmeval peoples of both North and
South America originated from a c!viliza-
ton of high degree which occupied the sub
equatorial belt some 10000 years ago while
the glacial sheet was still on. Population
spread northward as the ice receded Routes
of exodus diverging from the central point
of departure are plainly marked by ruins
end records. The subsequent settlements in
Mexico. Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado
Utah and California indicate the successive
stages of advance, well as the persistent
struggle to maintain the ancient civiliza-
nature. The varying architecture of the
valleys cliffs and mesas is an ineligible
expression of the eXigencies which stimulat-
ed the builders The gradual distribution of
population over the higher latitudes in after
years was supplemented by accretions from
Europe and Northern Asia centuries before
the coming of Columbus. Wars ani repri-
sails were the natural and inevitable results
of a mixed and degenerating population
with different dialects. The mounds which
cover the mid-continental areas isolated
and in groups tell the story thereof. The
Korean immigration of the year 544 his
torically cited, which led to the founding of
the Mexican empire in 1925, was but an in
cidental contribution to the growing popu-
lation of Nerth America. So also We're the
very much earlier migrations from Central
America across the Gulf of Mexico.

The state of Kansas seems to be more
prolific in finds of meteors than any other

thirty years ago a meteorite was seen to fall

Gates that 1t has been exposed for many
