Xenia, o., July 26.-The latest devel-

yania train at Trebeins show that the
worst fears about the number of killed
have not been realized. Up to O'Clock
only four, Engineer Clark. Fireman
Dryer. Mail Clerks Peters and Nc
Gowan, are known dead Neither has
there been any additional injured dis.
covered.
One of the most thrilling chapters
of the railway wreck Is that which
deals with the escape Of the runaway
car in the yards here When Yard
master Sullivan saw that the brakes
would not work he jumped from the
car. which had not attained any great
speed, and attempted TO throw the
switch by which 1t would Dc put into
a siding. But he failed I'm this and
then made an effort TO catch the car
again. Finding that his efforts TO stop
the car were fruitless, Sullivan then
came back and notified the yard engine
and a wild chase Of nearly three miles
ensued in an effort to overtake the car.
But this also failed. the car having at
atined such speed and such a start
that all efforts I'm this direction were
OF no avail. It Is estimated that the
coal car must have been running at
the speed of 20 miles an hour and tue
train approaching at about the same
speed when the crash occurred
Scarcely a trace OF the car Is to be
found. The engine and tank lie a hun
dred feet beyond the point where the
wreck occurred

one FIGHT ENOUGH
State Legal Department Thinks
Ones Enough at a Time
IN THE WAR ON THE MERGER
Explained by MinnesOta's
Attorney General.

One thing at time is the policy Of Min
nesota's legal department in testing the
legality ofrailroad consolidation. No other
proceeding will be commenced while the
supreme court of the United States has
before it the petition of Attorney General
Douglas Until the question of jurisdic-
tion is settled, at least, this will be the
only action pending.
There is reason to believe that action
In the state courts against the Great
Northern railway is contemplated. but as
1t would involve some of the points adj
vanced in the petition now pending, such
an action will be deferred for a time. 1t
is felt that the Northern Securities COM
pany is the concern to be reached. first Of
all. If it is immune to the laws of Mime
sofa, then the Minnesota corporations will
be brought into the state courts.
Attorney General Douglas says that
some of the papers-not T b ] our D a !,
Observation-Disclosures Attorney General
Knox, making him say that he would not
act against the Northern Securities COM
pany. What he did say was very different.
He told Mr.. Douglas: f.
Should you fail In bringing your proceed
ing under the Minnesota laws, and should you
bring reasonable proof to me to show that
any act Of congress is being violated by the
Northern Securities company, I will bring
an action myself.

THE Y0UNGERS' CASE
The Board of Pardons May Refuse
Full Pardon.
PAROLE RESULT OF LEGISLATION
Be Changed to an Earlier ~
Date. ~te....-- t-

Absolute PARDON for the Younger BROTH
ers is not assured. There seems to be
general feeling in favor Of the step, owing
to the age of the brothers, and their APP
parent helplessness in Minnesota's out
door air. Members of the pardon board,
however, are debating the question very
seriously ....
When the boys were paroled, the pardon
board put the responsibility on the legis-
lature, which passed. a general act with
special reference to the Youngers. True,
majority was secured in the legislature
only on account of the confidence certain
members had that the parole would be
refused by Chief, Justice Start. 1t was a
bald attempt to shift responsibility, and
the chief justice resented it.: He, as
well as the other two members Of the
board, took the legislature as acting in
good faith and held that in granting the
parole they were only carrying out the
expressed wish of the legislature.
Pardon is a different matter. All the
efforts of the Ioungers friends, in all
the years of their confinement, failed to
win favorable consideration for their par
don, either from governors, pardon boards
or legislature. While the logic of the
the brothers and their return. to Missouri,
it is by no means certain that the board
of pardons will take so lenient view.
A change will have to be made in the
date of the boards meeting. 1t was post
poned to Jan. II, which has since been set
for the hearing IN the Northern Securities
case at Washington. Attorney General
Douglas will have to attend the hearing,
and his presence is necessary at the meet
ing of the pardon board which may be
convened somewhat earlier. .as;
