TwENTY-oNE DEAD, EIGHTY INJURED.
Italian Soldiers in Railway Accident-King
and Queen Visit Hospital.

Rome. Aug. 2S.-A disastrous railway accident
has cut short the festivities and demonstrations
in honor Of the King and Queen al Udine, the
chief town the eastern frontier, sixty miles
from Venice, where the sovereigns had gone to
view the grand army manRuvres.
At 10 o'clock last night, near Udine, a train
crowded with soldiers into freight train.
Twenty soldiers and one captain were killed
and eighty injured, including six officers. among
whom was the colonel in command. The cap
tain who was killed had his head cut off and an
engine driver as burned alive. Both engines
were entirely destroyed and several Of the cars
were crushed INTO spInters
Darkness rendered the confusion about the
scene of the wreck extreme, while the terror
among those who escaped injury was increased
when the trains took fire few minutes after
the collision. The flames however, were i'm
mediately eXtingushed
Special trains were hurriedly sent TO the scene
of the disaster carrying the authorities from the
nearest town. who organized a corps Of physi-
clans and cared for the wounded.
King Victor Emmanuel and Queen Helena
visited the hospital to the victims OF the ac-
cident. The Queen spoke TO each of the
wounded. with whom the King also shook
hands With the royal couple were the Minister
of War and the Archbishop OF Udine. the latter
having received telegram from the Pope in
strueting him 10 visit the hospital aud assist at
the funerals OF the victims.

NATIONS WARsHIPs HELD READY
Gravity of Situation Shown by Attempt to
Destroy Oriental Express.

Paris, Aug. 2S-The latest official advices re-
ceived here show that the Russian squadron
which was at Iniada, of the east coast of Tur-
key, was withdrawn to SebastopoI where 1t is
awaiting further orders. Italy has one warshp
Austria has one and France has one in Turkish
waters. but in each case large squadrons are
held in reserve for action If the situation be-
comes acute
The increasing gravity OF the conditions in
Turkey is further shown by an official report
just received from Philippopolis, giving details
OF the revolutionary plot to blow up the Oriental
Express. One of the plotters had been desig-
mated to sacrifice his life by boarding the train
and throwing the bombs. This plot, probably.
was connected with the blowing up of the omni-
bus train at Kuleli Burgas but the Phllippopolis
report establishes the fact that the original plan
was aimed against the leading transit European
express for the purpose of impressing the world
with the magnitude of the disorder.
The reports received here from the French
consuls at Salonica and Monastir are more reas-
surfing. They say they have no further fear for
their lives, unless the Turkish sodiery become
Turkish battalions have been withdrawn from
Albania and concentrated around Salonica, as
the Albanian disorders have been crushed.
The most remarkable feature OF the reports
discloses the fact that the Turkish force, which
fifty thousand men when the troops entered
Albania, six months ago, has been reduced
to 5000 men, showing a loss of $1,000 troops
was chiefly in men killed while crushing the up
rising.

error in tho transmission Of the cipher dispatch
from Consul Ravndal. at Beirut. in reporting the
incident TO the minister.
The dispatch from Mr. Leishman followed closely
on The Associated Press bulletin the same sub
sect which had been shown 10 the prominent Off
Gals OF the government The dispatch from tho
minister communicated at orce TO the Presi-
dent 1T Oyster Bay, but up 10 late hour tonight
nothing had been heard from him on the subject
at the State Department. It's contents were OK
treuely gratifying to the officials Of the govern
raent here. IT relieved the situation of its ex-
IRENE tension and leaves the way open for an
amicable and psaceable adjustment OF the incident
Acting Secretary Loomis declined TO make pub
lie the text OF Minister Leishman's dispatch to-
night but he gave q summary of Its contents.
As stated in the press dispatch. 1t shows that Mr.
HIsgelssen had been shot at by some person at the
time unknown TO the officials. but that he had not
been hit. The local Turkish officials were prompt
20 express their regret the occurrence, and were
eKerting themselves to appTehend the assassin but
thus far had been unsuccessful
The minister's dispatch also said that Consul
Ravndal had reported to him that some Of the
foreign censuis located at Beirut had reported to
their governments that the situation at that place
had become exceedingly unsafe, that this con-
dition OF affails had existed for time, and
that something ought 10 be done TO relieve the
tension. The opinion expressed that the at
tempted assassination of Magelssen probably would
bring matters TO a focus. the attention of the
Turkish Government being drawn to the matter in
this forcible way and some effort thus be made to
avoid further trouble.
The latest development in the Turkish situation
was discussed in official circles where the view is
held that the denial Of the report of the killing

4 CAMPAIGN OF ERRORS.
Afican Var Filled 5cith British
Mistakes and Failures.

London. Aug. 2S.-The evidence given before
the Royal Commission on the South African
war is issued to-day in the form Of three blue
books containing over LOO pages. Field Mar
shall Lord Roberts. Lord Kitchener, Field Mar
Lord Wolseley and other generals gave various
reasons for the failures OF the war. Lord Rob
erts gave long opinions on the most important
lessons to be learned from the war. He con-
sideTed the initial strategical error to be prac-
tically irretrievable. He criticised the War Of
flee with regard to the general preparations and
equipment the first plan of campaign, the un-
discriminating OF the enemy and ignorance as to
the geography and extent of the country, and
the lack of artillery and mounted infantry.
General Sir Redvers Butler said he was ham
pered by the refusal of the War Office to accept
his plans and the failure on the part of the
War Office to give him definite instructions and
information.
Lord Kitchener said the officers in many cases
were not qualified for their work. and expressed
the opinion that the juniors were better than the
seniors. He praised the men. but said the chief
difficulty was the lack OF training Of the
serves and volunteers.
Lord Wolseley in a memorandum, complains
that the commander in chief has become the
fifth wheel to the coach. and that the Secretary
of State for War is the actual commander in
chief
Replying TO this criticism Lord Lansdowne.
War Secretary in the early part of the South
African war; and Mr.. Brodrick the present Wal
secretary and Lord Lansdowne's successor. sug

to use them.
