locomotive OF a construction train at
Irvington, thirty-two miles north OF
this city, at Q o'clock this morning.

was seriously injured by the trunks
that piled up on him when the crash
came. Passengers were thrown from
their seats in the cars and many were
bruised.
The engineers and firemen escaped
injury. AS a result of the collision
the Empire State Express was de-
layed for over an hour. Both loco
motives were badly damaged.
The engineer of the construction train
had switched his cars onto the middle
track at Irvington and had run back to
the main track for some reason unex-
planned.

STEAMER HUGOMA
AGROUND IN Foe.
Tramp Freighter, Seeking An
chorage, Left High and Dry
on Oyster Island in the
Upper Bay.

Ia the dense fog which hung e
the harbor during the night the
steamship Hugoma, of the New York
and Porto Rico line, went ashore at

hours to drag her off. but without
success.
At 6 o'clock the Mutual Towboat
Company sem out a small boat in
answer to a distress signal. Capt. Nc
Lean, of the stranded freighter, re-
ported all hands well and asked that
his chief mate, Simpson, be taken
ashore. Simpson went to the offices
of the New York and Porto Rico
Steamship Company at No. ! Broad
way to report the mishap.
Simpson said that t. ship passed
Quarantine at midnight and was work
ing up into the pay for anchorage when
the Jog came down. Capt. Mclean,
guided by the Robbins Reef light,
thought to get his vessel into the main
channel, but the fog got 30 thick he lost
the light and his bearings. He tried to
get the Black Tom light, but while
nOsing around in the black fog his YES
sci ran aground.
1t was 2 o'clock when the lookout re-
ported the vessel stranded, and not until
crew know where they lay. Then TO
their disgust they found that the re-
ceding tide had left them high and dry
on oyster Island.
The ship escaped damage but Is lying
in a precarious condition, as there are
u number of rocks on the reef, and ever
at high tide II will be no easy JOB. TO

hours TO pull her off while there was

Husband of Former
Stewardess of Steam
ship AIgonquinS Starts
a New Inquiry.
SKULL WAS FRACTURED,
Mrs. Berdinsky Was Sup
posed to Have Received In
jury from a Fall While Suf-
fering from Hemorrhage.

Ernest Berlinsky. of No. 81 Bank
street, believes his wife. Pauline, who
was a stewardess on the Clyde line
steamship Algonquin, was murdered.
She WA found dying in her stateroom
aboard the Algonquin on the morning
of May 2 last, while the vessel was at
Boston.
Although the case was officially inves-
tigated by the Boston authorities, who
reported that the woman's death was
caused naturally, the husband Is con-
WINGED that his wife was foully dealt
with. He bases his suspicious on GER
tain statements made to him by his
wife shortly before she sailed on the
Algonquin, whose trip ended with her
death.
These statements have been repeated
by Berdinsky to the Boston author
tiles who started another investigation.
It Is believed that Berdinsky told of
recent trouble his wife had with a
person in the employ OF the steamship
company who was assigned to duty on
the Algonquin.
According to the official records Mrs.
Berdinsky's death resulted from a frac-
tured skull produced by a fall when she
was in a weakened condition following
a hemorrhage of the throat, and tonsil-
tits, by which she was afflicted. When
Mrs. Berdinsky was found dying In her
stateroom DIR, T. F. Mccarthy. of East
Boston, and another physician We're
summoned. She was bleeding from a
severe wound in the right temple. DIR.
McCarthy's suppos!tion was that Mrs.
Berdinsky in arising from her berth to
summon help fell and in that manner
injured her head.
Medical Examiner Harris and Capt.
Dugan, OF Boston, are now on their
way to New York to further investigate
the case. The Algonquin Is now in
port here.
Berdinsky is a waiter employed IN
Fleischinann's restaurant. corner of

MCKINLEYS GREATEST SPEECH

The last speech President Mckinley
made was looked upon by thoughtful
men of all parties as the greatest of his
life. Leading Republicans who were
afterwards leaders in the legislation of
the present Congress, were especially
emphatic in regarding the speech as a
model for future action. They set up
the dead President as the man whose
advice must be strictly followed The
weakening" began with the opening
of Congress. The Tariff Barons got in
their work and crowded sentiment to
the background. Here is an extract
from the Mckinley speech, which will
serve as a reminder of the whole:
'The period Of exclusIveness is pass
ed. The expansion of our trade and
commerce is the pressing problem.
Commercial wars are Improbable. 4
policy of goodwill and friendly trade
relations will prevent reprIsals Re
ciprOclty treaties are IN harmony with
the spirit of the times; measures OF
retaliation are not. IT, perchance. some
of our tariffs are no longer needed for
revenue or to encourage and protect
our industries at home. why should
they not be employed to extend and
promote our markets abroad"
In the face of the awful blank that
Congress has left in the matter of tariff
Legislation will these leaders have the
face to praise the Mckinley speech
again! How long do they feel that they
can fool anybody:

PREDICTS A DEMOCRATIC VIC
TORY NEXT FALL.

Washington, July 7.-Sen-
ator Fred Dubois of Idaho.
who made a speech in the
senate on the Philippine gov
erument bill, which was one
of the strongest protesta-
tions made by the opposi-
ton, said this morning of
that measure
The Philippine government
bill Vas constructed in the interest
Of syndicaies and corporations. II
was plainly stated by the advo-
cafes of the bill that the design
w9s to encourage corporations to
inyesl their money ia the philip
pines for their development. 1t
seems comparatively certain that
the design Of the Republicans in
the passage Of this bill was, and is,
TO make a permanent dependency
OF the Philippine islands"
Speaking of the passage of
several important measures against
the views Of several prominent Re
publicans, notably the ship sub
sidy bill and the Philippine gov
ernment bill, Senator Dubois said.
think the discord in the Re
publican party is greater than it
has ben since 1872. The real
leaders are not friendly to presi-
dent Roosevelt. Under the sur
face the leaders charge the pres =
dent with lack of candor. while he
charges them with duplicity.
The Democrats in sngress, on
the other hand, are more united
and harmonious than they have
been since the first election of
Grover Cleveland to the presl-
dency. The conditions are such
that it seems reasonable that the
people will insist upon a change.
The greater difference between the
two parties is that the Republicans
have too many ambitious leaders,
while the Democrats are with
ont leadership. There is no ieal-
ousy in the ID, mocratic party, and
no one assumes to control or lead |
The consequence is that they |

SENATOR HANNA'S PROPHECY.

Nobody has ever accused
Senator Hanna of a lack OF
political shrewdness. During
his career as a party man
ager he has added to the vast
material resources placed i'll
his hands an appreciation of
public sentiment which has
been OF particular service to
the organization.
On that account his speech
before the Senate regarding
Cuban reciprocity may be
considered significant. My
opinion is, he said in dis
cussing the failure OF Con
gress to vote reciprocity for
Cuba. "that we shall hear
from the people in unmistak-
able terms.
President Roosevelt has
put the issue on Il moral
basis. The representatives
of the party in Congress
have repudiated the obliga-
ton. sighted the President
and ignored the wishes of the
people who furnished the
soldiers to free Cuba from
Spanish oppression. Con
vention platforms have up
held the President while
Congress men voted against

He went out into thu

"These years | have. If |
