D[AI \ IN A WRECK
An Engine Driven Crashing
Through a Smoker.
A 8RAKEMAN'5 MIS- TAKE
Failure 10 See That the Pear Car of the Freight
Had Cleared the Main Linz the
Supposed Cause Of The
Disaster.
CBy the Associated Press.)

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. As result Of
collision between a passenger train and
the rear end of a freight train on the
Monongahela division Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad tonight at Cochrane station,
just above Duquesne, seven men are dead
one is dying and five others injured.
The dead:
c. e. STROUD, baggage master Eliza
beth, accommodation, home, Wood.
c. NJ. BONNER, brakeman of accommo-
dation, Pittsburg.
JOHN STEWART, passenger, residence
unknown.
Two unknown foreigners, killed out
right
Two unknown foreigners, died on way
to hospital.
The injured
T. D. COOK, conductor accommodation,
probably die before morning.
Sam Sullahowski, shoulder blade frac-
tured.
Peter Kimonsky, burned.
John L. Smith, seriously injured.
Mike Chowick, slightly injured.
Mike Gentil, slightly injured.
The passenger train in the wreck was
the West Elizabeth accommodation
which left Pittsburg at 1920 p. IN. It
was on time and had a clear track, ac
cording to the signals displayed. At the
siding at Cochrane, it ran into the rear
of a freight which had taken the switch,
but failed to clear the main line. The
officials Of the road attribute the dis
aster to the failure of Patrick Quinn, the
rear brakeman of the freight to see that
his train had fully cleared.
Up to II o'clock Quinn had not been
located. When the passenger train came
along the caboose of the freight over
Tapped the main track enough to catch
the tender of the passenger engine, which
was forced back upon the combination
baggage and smoking car with terrible
force. The thirteen passengers were
damned against the rear end of the
car into almost a solid mass. Three of
the victims were apparently killed out
right, two OF the other four were liter
ally roasted to death, and the two who
died on the way to the hospital were so
badly burned that recognition was al
most impossible.
Immediately after the impact, fire in
the stove in the smoker communicated
to the wreck, and the victims were tor
tured beyond description. All of the vic
Tins were badly burne4. Conductor Cook
was found unconscious under the charred
body Of Baggagemaster Stroud. He is so
badly hurt that he can hardly live the
night through.
Strange to say, not truck, except. the
tender left the track, the passengers in
the coaches being thus protected from
harm. No one outside of the smoker
was injured, and the tracks were cleared
within a short time after the accident.

Last night the conference of the Tab
ornacle church met. At the earnest solicit
tation of Rev. Mr. Hubbard, his resigna-
tion was accepted, to take effect imme-
diately. The meeting was in the best of
spirit, many speeches of regret being
made that the Tabernacle is going to lose
its beloved pastor. Mr.. Hubbard said:
However much you may dislike to
vote against accepting my resignation |
would not think it disloyal, but as a
personal favor if you do | will not
organize another church here no matter
how easy it may be to do so. / ask
you 20 accept my resignation Immediately
because ! 10 not want to be in an atti-
tude of antagonism to the church while
being asked to consider a new move
ment AS yet, l do not know what I will
do. l have several offers. etc, under
consideration"
committee was appointed to draft res
olutions suitable to the occasion. A
A motion was also passed paying Mr..
Hubbard his salary UP to February first.
Dr. Hubbard came to Raleigh about
three years ago from Eufaula Alabama.
and succeeded DR.. A. M. Simms as pas
tor of the Tabernacle church. Since COM
ing to Raleigh he has made many friends
who will regret very much to give him
up. Tt is the earnest desire of many
Baptists in Raleigh to carry out the idea
Of organizing the new church here and
keep DR.. Hubbard in our midst.
The church which DR.. Hubbard gave up
in Alabama to accept the Tabernacle call
is one OF the strongest Baptist churches
in the South. He was succeeded there
by the Rev DR. Morton B. Wharton,
pastor of the First Baptist
church, of Baltimore.

CLARK FOR C0CKRELL.
For President, He Says, He Would Poll
Every Anti-Republican Vote.

Atlantic, Ia, August Icon
gresham Champ Clark yesterday de
cared that now was Missouri's
golden opportunity to have one Of
her illustrious sons elevated to the
presidency.
General Francis Marion Cockrell
can be elected il nominated, and most
assuredly he should be nominated,
for the good of both the party and
the country" he declared.
General Cockrell would win. He
would poll every anti-Republican
vote in America, and any man who
can do that can be elected. His rec
ord on all public questions, including
finance, is without flaw. Therefore,
he would be acceptable to the silver
Democrats, so,cailed, while his con
servatism would rally to his stand
ard Democrats who are not enam
ored of free silver, and Republicans
who believe in this country attending
to its own business strictly and in its
letting the affairs of other countries
severely alone.
ellis liberality as to pensions would
bring to his support lots Of union
veterans, and, Of course, the Confed-
crate veterans to a man would shout
themselves hoarse for him.
81 am in favor of putting into the
presidential race every four years the
foremost Missouri Democrat and OF
keeping on doing that until we not
only get a Missouri Democratic
president, but till we found a Mis-
souri, dynasty which shall eclipse in
length OF service the far-famed 'Vir-
ginia dynasty Cockrell is tip-top
man to begin with. 1t is high time
for Missouri to assert her SUPREMACY
in Democratic affairs.

Avn F UL!

1t is really awiulwhy some men tug
away with the common sulky and
gang plows, pulling their horses to-
death in the hard ground with their
weight and the weight OF the pillow,
all dragging on the bottom OF their
pillow and having trouble keeping
their pillow in the ground; raising up
and tipping almost over with them,
part Of the time, when they could
buy a Hummer, Sulky or Gang, and
be relieved OF all that trouble. The
Hummer pillow stands alone, rs there
is no other pillow made like it. 1t is
made on different principles from all
other plows-any little child can run
a Hummer, sulky or gang. 1t turns
right or left and makes square cor
ner. 1t is impossible TO put an ounce
OF weight on the pillow as it hangs in
a frame; it is so constructed that 1t
will 90 into the hardest road in
Bates county and stay there; it is
made OF maleable steel and will last
almost life time, and sold on the
strongest warrant that could be
placed on all implement. Never had
a Hummer returned, nor never had
a kick from a customer-the return
ing and kicking all comes from our
competitors. We can say the same
of our Sattley Disc Gangs, made OF
the same material-maleable and
steel-easy to handle, durable, does
perfect work, simple in construction,
and the ONLY DISC GANG that you
can turn right or left and make a
square corner, and sold on the
strongest warrant. We have other
sulky plows we will sell you at $27
$50 and $3.50.
