Killed at Ludden.

Fay Jones of Huron, q brakeman
on the Northwestern met with an &C.
cident at Ludden last Saturday
morning which cost him his life. He
was going over the cars on the top Of
the train when he slipped and fell,
dropping between the cars in such q
manner that both feet fell under the
wheels. The accident was quickly
discovered and the freight train
abandoned. the engine aud way car
starting out as special ahead of the
morning passenger for Huron, where
l.. d. Jones, father of the injured
young man, is station agent for the
Northwestern road. Mr.. Jones was
telegraphed the particulars and he
met the special at Athol with another
special from the south, and brought
the young man back to Aberdeen,
where he was taken to St. Luke's
hospital, it being believed that he
could receive better nursing there
than at his home. His condition
however was such that the doctors
did not undertake to amputate his
legs because OF his being very weak
from the shock of the accident, grew
steadily worse after his arrival there
until his strength was gone and death
relieved him from suffering Saturday
afternoon. He was conscious during
all of the time he lived except for a
few minutes at time, when he would
imagine that the wheels Of the cars
were still resting on his legs.

wASHOUTS ON L. & N.
TRAINS FROM NASHVILLE TO
 MONTGOMERY ANNULLED.
One Hundred Feet of Trsstle and Elm. bankment Washed Away-West- ern Three Hours Late
 Last Night.

The only road running into Montgom- cry that had escaped damage during the heavy rains of the past few months is the Louisville and Nashville from Nash vile to Montgomery.
 That was in the past, however. and now the Louisville and Nashville Is up against 1t harder than any of the roads entering Montgomery were. during the rains of a few weeks ago. At Lynville, station eighty miles south of Nashville. 100 feet of trestle and embankment has been washed away. This has put most ef- fectual stop on traffic of every description and yesterday all passenger trains from Nashville to Montgomery were annulled. Train No. 1 due here at Il o'clock yes- terday morning from the north has never reached here and in place of train No. from the north. due here at 7:45 last night, train No. that left here at { o'clock yesterday morning was turned back at Decatur and will reach here five hours late, coming in as No 3. It is not known when the road between here and Nashville will be open, but the line from here to Mobile Is all right.
 The Western was something over three hours late last night and two sections were run from Atlanta to Montgomery, the first one getting fin on time. That road is all right as are all of the others entering Montgomery. The Louisville anc Nashville between here and Nashville be- ing the only one in trouble.

HAS AN EYE ON THIBE1
RUSSIA MAY ATTEMPT ITS AC
 QUESTION.
Believed That the Powers Will Not Object to the Signing of the Approved Manchuria
 Convention.

Pekin, March 29.-The Russians are not pressing the propositions to give the Rus so- Chinese Bank exclusive mining and other rights in Manchuria, so the powers are not likely to oppose the signing of the Manchurian treaty. as now practically agreed upon between Paul Lessar. the Russian Minister here. and Prince Ching, President of the Chinese Foreign Office. The signatures will probably be attached dn a few days.
 M Lessar has been suggesting to Prince Ching that Thibct should be granted in- dependence. The Chinese believe that this portends a Russian attempt to acquire Thibet as compensation for compromis- ing Russia's Manchurian ambitions.
 Certain German instructors who were formerly employed in the Chinese army have requested their reinstatement, but the official replied that China had agreed not to employ foreign instructors on ac- count of the jealouSieS of the powers. Nevertheless more Japanese officers re- gently joined Yuan ShI kais army. They are wearing Chinese clothing and their efforts have already resulted in great inn provement in the equipment of the forces.
 The latestl reports from Tt Ming Flu say the greatest loss of life occurred during the hght between Yuan Shi Kai's soldiers and the populdce. The inhabitants of sev- eral villages. who were enlisted in the so-called united Villagers societies re- sisted the soldiers but as most of the villagers were only armed with spears and swords they suffered great slaugh- ter.
