EASTERN CONDITIONS

American Securities Seem to Be Grow

Europe.

LONDON, Dec. 27.-what little
business was transacted on the Stock
Exchange last week was completely
dominated by the varying phases Of
the Far Eastern situation. Japanese
securities were severely depressed at
the beginning of the week, but became
steadier when it was seen that the ne
gotiations between Russia and Japan
were likely to continue. Depression,
however. was rather general aDd was
only resisted by the American mar
ket.
The Statist calls attention to the
fact that good American bonds are
growing in favor all over Europe, and
adds:
If the highest class of such bonds
fell sufficiently in price to yield per
cent buying would be on an unprece-
dentedly large scale. AS it is, there
have been lately immense purchases
both of bonds and shares by French
and German and other continental in
vestors."

two women. a boy and a man were ta-

The westbound flyer. with its heavy
bulkheaded cars, stayed on the rails
back of the baggage and mail cars, ana
the passengers in this train escaped Sc

out of the train to assist the less fortu-

injured as they were borne to the less
shattered cars of No. and into the re-
mains of the parlor car of No. 6. Neaf-
by farmers, hearing the crash, turned
out with blankets and did valiant ser
vice.
According to statements made by Of
ficials Of the Pere Marquette, the west
bound train was travelling down grade
at a rate of sixty miles an hour. The
eastbound train was climbing the hill
at a speed of forty miles an hour. The
former carried probably seventy-five
passengers, while the latter is believed
to have been carrying at least 125 pas
sengers. The two trains collided at
about the middle of a long, sweeping
curve three-quarters of a mile west Of
East Paris.
On the inner side of the curve is a
high embankment, preventing a view
Of the track ahead.
When the engines met, one turned
completely over and lay with its. nose
in a direction opposite to that in which
it had been travelling. The other
climbed the wreckage of the first, its
boiler, torn from the trucks, standing
erect in the center of the debris.
