DEAD PLACED AT TWENTY.
Upwards of Fifty Injured of Whom
 Thirteen Are tm the Hospital

New York, Jan. 2S.-The total loss of life by last nights fearful collision on the Central Railroad of New Jersey at Graceland, N. J., is twenty tonight Tn Fireman Mccarthy, of the Philadel- phia and Reading express, who are in the hospital at Pfainfleld, may die at any moment, and it is believed that several of the injured passengers can not recover. The number of those known to be injured is upwards of fif- ty, of whom thirteen remain in the hos pital.
 The blame for the disaster is placed Davis, who, according to a policeman who took him from the shattered cab of his engine, admitted that he had seen the red and green lights displayed, but expecting to see them suddenly change to white, rushed on until it was too late to check speed before he plunged into the rear of the train ahead. No statement has been ob- tained from Davis in the hospital, but in intervals of semi-cOnsciousnes and delirium he moans: 'I saw nothing.'
 According to the statement of the sta tion agent at Cramford an attempt was made to hold the express by telegraph at that point, but almost at the instant tn emessage was received the train thundered by at upwards of sixty miles an hour and the crash followed two minutes later.
 A jury was called at Plainfield to-day to hold an inquest and adjourned until tomorrow morning. when an exhaust i've investigation will be begun in order to fix the responsibility for the disas- ter. The grand jury which was to be dismissed tomorrow will be held in re- cess in order that the evidence taken at the inquest may be submitted with out delay.

4 SOUTHERN PACIFIC WRECK.
Twenty Dead and Large Number of
 IniureG Already Reported.


 Injured Already Reported.
 Tucson, Ariz., Jan. 28.-A disastrous collision occurred on the Southern Pa cific railroad early this morning be- tween two passenger trains. The wreck occurred near Vailsburg. Ariz., seventeen miles east of this city, and details as to the cause are difficult to obtain. It appears that both trains were running at full speed and came together with a terrific crash. The en- zines and cars were piled up in a mass and immediately took fire from the ex- ploding oil tanks of the engines. The flames were communicated to the cars, eleven of which were consumed. As soon as the news of the wreck reached Tucson a relief train was sent to the scene of the disaster. This train has just returned, bringing seventeen of the injured. Several of the injured were taken to Benson, Ariz. The first news of the wreck reached here when tourist car which had. been broken away from the east bound train ran down grade to Tucson, where it was stopped.
 Following is a list of the dead, as far as obtainable at this hour: J. M. Hilton, Cambridge, Mass; J. W. Bruce, engineer; B. R. Wilkey, engineer; George McGrath, fireman.
 Seriously injured: J. W. Hartman, Saginaw, Mich; Frederick Donahue, Battle Creek. Mich; A. B. silverton, New York; Ben Bradsford, Mayhill, NY.
 Among the injured are also the fol- lowing: s. F. Glidden, Cambridge, Mass, and Ed. Meyers, Springfield, o. Many others were slightly injured by broken glass. So far as ascertained, eight persons were killed. The fatali- ties may reach a. score. Both Engin- eers Bruce and Wlikey and Fireman McGrath were burned to death in the Wrecks of their engines.
 Manager Agler said: 'Telegrams we have received say the collision took place before light this morning and that 1t was caused by the negligence of the telegraph operator at Esmond, station fourteen miles east of Tucson. The west bound train, called the Sun set Limited, was two hours late and was travelling on the time of another train. The east bound train was the Crescent City express, which left the Oakland Mole at 10 o'clock Monday morning. The operator at Esmond should have set signals, stopped the wets bound train and delivered orders to the engineer, which would have caused him to have taken side track as designated by the division train des- patcher.
 At last accounts twenty bodies had been taken from the mass of burned and charred wreckage and 1t is believed that several more are buried in the twisted and tangled mass of iron and steel

HOWE & STETSON.
MARKS JACOBS.

Old Jewish Resident Passes Away at
 Midnight Last Night.
 Marks Jacobs, aged sixty-efght years, died at his residence, No. 12 Day street, about midnight last night after an ill., ness of several weeks. He was stricken two months ago with a renewal of a serious affiiction of the leg, which com pelled him to take to his bed He was never able to get up after that. His trouble spread, and, despite his own heroic efforts and the best of medical advice and attendance, he gradually grew weaker until he finally suc- cumbed.
 Marks Jacobs was one of the oldest Jewish residents of the city. He came to this country about 1861. He lived in New York for few years and then came to New Haven, where he had lived ever since. He was an ardent dis ciple of the Orthodox Jewish faith, and it was largely through his efforts that this faith has grown to it's present in- fluential proportions. He was one of the foremost founders of the B'nai Scholom synagogue on William street. Largely through his devoted and un- selfish efforts the congregation, after years of trial, was enabled to shift from it's quarters on William street and build a substantial place of worship on Olive street.
 MT. Jacobs did much good during his quiet life here. He dispensed charity, but few knew of it, and his deeds of kindness will be better known now that he is gone. He reared large family to good positions and was devoted to all his children to the very last. He leaves, besides a widow, four daught ers-Mrs. Louis Buckner, of Baltimore, Mrs. Da- vid F. Mann, of New York, Mrs. Israel Jacobs, of IS Day street, this city, and Miss Huldah Jacobs, who resides at home; and six sons--Dr. Jonas Jacobs, of Elmira, New York; Emanuel Jacobs, of this city, Alexander Jacobs, of the Journal and Courier, Attorney Louis E. Jacobs, of this city, Israel Jacobs, of New York, and Jacob Jacobs, of the New Haven (Yale) postoffice.
 MT. Jacobs death is the ffrs& in the Jacobs family in twenty-five years. He leaves fourteen grandchildren. The fu- neral will take place tomorrow (F'ri- day) and the burial will be in the fam fly plot in the Westville Orthodox cem- etery.

ANGLO~G ERMAN RELATIONS.
Striking Articles Likely to Promote a
 Better Feeling.

betSer Feeitng.
 London, Jan. 2S.-To-morrow's issue of the Empire Review of which c. Kin loch Cooke, a well known writer on foreign and colonial affairs, is editor will publish striking articles on Anglo German relations, from important and thoroughly reliable sources in Berlin and London, which are sure to attract considerable attention. The articles are designed to promote better state of feeling in England and Germany. During the course of a reorganization of their relations during a long period the writer says:
 'The public should be made aware of the fact that it was our cabinet which asked the German government to CO., operate with this country in the coer- cion of Venezuela. That decision was not, however, taken at Sandringham. Indeed, I think l am correct in saying that the subject of Venezuela was not mentioned by Emperor William during his visit to the king. Anyhow, it is every sense 8 perversion of things to assert that the alliance was due to the cajolery of either the emperor or his chancellor Germany did not force her alliance upon us, nor did she dupe us into a conclusion of the alliance. More over, the contention that Germany would have been prevented by force of public opinion in the United States from alone coercing Venezuela, and that but for the alliance with us she would have run the risk of hostilities with the United States, is arbitary and would not be endorsed for a moment either in Downing street or at Wash dngton."

QUAY SPRINGS NEW GAME
TO MAKE fl RIDER OF THE
 STATEHOOD BILL.
VIII Join the Measure With the Bills Providing Money for the Conduct of the Business of the eGOVernmenf-NVtII RendeI 1t Necessary to Accept State hood BIIl fn Order Go Pass Approprta- tiOn Bills

Washington, Jan. 28.-A few minutes before Senator Lodge suspended his speech in opposition to the omnibus statehood bill to-day Senator Quay, in charge of that bill, introduced the state hood measure as an amendment to each of two appropriation bills, the agricul- tural and the sundry civil bills. The document was handed in very quietly and the occurrence attracted no atten- ton at the time. The amendments con- tained in each case all the provisions of the bill as it came from the house and provide for the admission of Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arizona as states of the Union. Senator Quay would not discuss the purposes of this step but his friends practically admit that it is the intention so to join the measure with the bills providing money for the conduct of the business of the govern ment as to render it necessary to ac- cept the statehood bill in order to se- cure the passage of the appropriation bills.
 That this is the purpose is made more evident by the fact that MT. Quay re- quested that the amendments be re- ferred to the committee on organiza ton and conduct of the executive de- partments of which he is chairman. A rule of the senate requires that in or der to throw out on a point of order an amendment to an appropriation bill must have been reported by some com mittee of the senate. Senator Quay's committee is composed of nine mem- bers, a large majority of whom are friendly to the admission of all the ter litories as states, and although it is a committee which has not had meet ing for years, it is contended that it is perfectly competent to pass on meas ure that may be referred to it for in- trOduction. In the usual order of bus mess the amendment to the sundry bill would have been referred to the com mittee on appropriations and the amendment to the agricultural bill to the committee on agriculture, but this was not done because those committees are not so certainly favorable to the statehood proposition, if favorable at all, to it. Hence MT. Quay decided to have the measures go to his own com mittee, in which he feels sure of secur- ing the action he seeks. The intention is to have the committee called togeth- CT at an early date to consider the amendments.
 It is understood that the decision to take this step accounts for MT. Quays motion to adjourn at an unusually ear iy hour to-day in the face of the notice given by him yesterday that he would ask the senate to-day to sit in continu- ous session until the statehood bill should be disposed of.
