Fireman ]. A. Mcintosh Was Ki11ed--None Of the
Excursionists Were Injured

Houston, Texas, Aug 1.---Report
reached the city at o'clock this morn
ing that the La Porte moonlight excur-
sion train had been wrecked at Pasa-
dena, ten miles from Houston. About
the same time the following telegram
was received:
'Deepwater, Texas, July s1.-The
LaPore excursion train jumped the
track at Pasadena at II o'clock to-
night, overturning five coaches. Two
or three hundred passengers were on
board The fireman was caught under
the tender. Think all passengers es.
capped unhurt. Fireman probably kill
ed"
AS soon as possible hospital train
was made ready and proceeded TO the
scene of the wreck. A report from one
Of the passengers is to the effect that
the fireman, ]. A. Mcintosh, was 50 Sc
verely injured that he died about an
hour after the accident. None Of the
passengers all of whom consider that
they had very narrow escape, were
injured.
The wreck was caused by a COW be-
coming tangled in the pilot of the en-
CINE, while the train was proceeding at
a good rate of speed.
Engineer Connor, who very brayely
stayed on his engine and was uniniu'-
ed, said that he saw two cows Oh the
track and upon the alarm being given
by the engine, they left the track.
There was a third COW lying on the
track, however, that the engineer did
not see, and this was what caused the

IMPORTS.
MORE THAN s1oo,oooooo BROUGHT
TO AMERICA DURING YEAR.
FROM PORTO RICO ANE HAWAII.
Including Domestic Production, Amer
Ics's Sugar supply Averaged ~
Pounds to Every Person.

Washington, D. c., Aug. S.-More
than 5,0OO,O00,O0O pounds OF sugar,
valued at over $1OO,OOO,OOO, was
brought into the United States in the
fiscal year Just ended This is larg
er importation of sugar than in any
preceding year in the history of the
country, and the value is greater than
in any preceding year except the i'm
portations of 1891, 1893 and 1894.
These figures include the sugar
brought from Porto Rico and the Ha-
Nwaiian Islands; and, while the figures
of the shipments from Porto Rico and
the Hawaiian Islands are not included
in the official statement OF imports,
they are properly included In the
statement to show the quantity of SUI
gar coming into the United States
The total number of pounds of SUI
gar brought into the United States
during the year was, as shown by the
records of the department of com
merce and labor through Its bureau
OF statistics, 5,217O77OS4, while in no
earlier year in the history of the
country has the Importation of sugar
ever reached 9,O0O,0OO,O 900 pounds,
The largest Importation in any ear
lier year was that Of 1897, when the
total was 4,s1S,9O5,7Ss pounds. Add
Ing to the enormous importation of
1903, 6OO,000,OO0 pounds are the do
nestle production, would give total
sugar supply Of 5,S17O0OO0O pounds
for the year, or sufficient to furnish
an average Of seventy-two pounds for
each individual in the United States,
estimating the present population at
S0,000,0O0
The record OF sugar importations
for the year differs materially in GER
tain aspects from that OF earlier years,
The total importation Of beet sugar
during the year was only s7,ooo,009
pounds, against 2s5,OoO,O0Q tn tho fis-
cal year 1902 and eos,0o0,ooo ID the
iacsl year 1901. Cane sugar 81 course
composed the remainder, and the cane
sugar importatious Of the fiscal year
exclusive Of that brought from Porto
Rico and the Hawaiian Islands, was
4,O75 100000 pounds against 1855,
100000 in the fiscal year 1902 and 2,
956,OOO,O0O in 1901 From Porto Rico
the total sugar brought into the Unit
ed States amounted to 226,14S,50s
pounds, valued at S7,466,579, and from
the Hawaiian Islands 774,S25, 42t
pounds, valued at $25,S1o6s4. Thus
the total quantity Of sugar supplied by
! Porto Rico and the Hawaiian Islands
amounted to 1,OOO,OOO,O0O pounds, OF
about one-hfth of the total brought
into the country, its value being near
" $SS,OOO,OOO.

wreck The engine struck the third
COW, and instead of throwing her of
the track the COW became entangled in
the COW catcher, and caused the de-
rallment of the engine, which fell down
a six-foot embankment. The tender
was turned completely around, end for
end, and caught both legs Of Fireman
Mcintosh, pinioning him beneath IT,
The limbs of the fireman were badly
mangled and, despite the best efforts
of the physicians and others on the
ground to extiicate him, he expired IN
about an hour, still pInioned under
meath the tender.
j. A. Mcintosh, the dead fireman, re-
sided in this city and leaves wife at
their home on Wayerly street In the
Fifth ward.
The most remarkable thing about
the wreck is the miraculous escape
from injuries Of Engineer Connor and
the passengers. The train consisted OF
seven coaches well filled, as is usual
with the moonlight excursions" but
only three Of them were derailed.
However, had It not been for the third
coach striking the tender Of the ens
CINE, in such a manner as to tighten
the shock,~in all probability all the
coaches would have left the track, and
it is not improbable that several would
have followed the engine in its tumble
down the embankment thus killing
and manning scores, casting a deep
gloom over many Houston homes in
stead Of only over that which was the
happy dwelling place Of the unfortun-
ate fireman.
