Confused BY Network OF switches.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March l0.-Three
men instantly killed, one man severely in
jured and a number Of others bruised and
lacerated are the results Of a fast passenger
train striking a crowd Of men at Fiftieth
street crossing of the Philadelphia. Wi J.
mington and Baltimore Railroad tonight.
Only meagre details could be obtained OF
the accident. and II is not at all certain
that another dead body will not be found.
Two bodies were recovered and taken to
the morgue. but so far only the left arm
OF the third victim has been found
street, who was badly injured, gave the
name Of one OF the dead men as George
Shickman of Baltimore, Md. Cone did
not want to stay at the University Hos
pital. where he was taken, and was. there
fore, locked up as a witness.
The scene Of the accident was about
half a square south Of Grays Ferry Bridge
on the west bank Of the Schuylkill River.
There 10 a net work Of tracks here and a
myriad Of switches, and II u to these switches
that the men probably owe their death.
According to the statement which the
police obtained from Cone, there were
eight men in the party. all OF whom we're
iron moulders.
The men were bound for Baltimore with
the intention Of eventually going to Spar
rows Point, to obtain employment at the
steel works. About 8 clock a fast freight
came along and the men decided TO board
IL. Unperceived by any Of the moulclers
an express was coming along on an ad-
joining track at a terrific speed. Owing
TO the rumbling Of the freight even the
near approach OF the passenger train re-
manned unnoticed until II was upon them.

JACKSON, Miss. March l0.-The flood
situation IL getting more and more serious
day by day. Pearl River is once more
rapidly rising. Reports from the Missis-
sppi are Of alarming nature. and there
does not seem to be much doubt that there
is going to be an overflow of great proper
tions Gov. Longino is In constant oom-
munication with the members OF the levee
board OF Clarksdale. and il convinced that
the State is in for an inundation equal to
that of 1897.
The Governor says: 1T looks like 1t 10
going to be a survival Of the fittest. 30 far
as Mississippi levees are concerned. II
our levees should prove stronger than those
of Arkansas, then we may be spared an
overflow. but IL the Arkansas side should be
strongest then we will be inundated"
LINCOLN. Neb.. March Io.-Ice .gorges
on the Platte the most severe in its history
placed an almost complete embargo on
railroad traffic in eastern Nebraska to-
day. Only the Burlington of the four
trunk lines is open. On each Of the others
bridges are gone, carried away by masses
OF ice, before which the big iron structures
were swept away ike CnbiI.
Up To- this evening six deaths by drown
ing have been reported. Most OF the
persons had unwittingly driven into the
floods path.
While the loss will foot up half a million,
reports tonight are that most Of the ice
is gone and danger is about over. Rail-
road traffic will not be fully resumed for
several days.

enough TO float a navy. the channel here

The Georgia Lee arrived from Cairo
to-day and her officers say that the water
is two feet deep in the principal streets

A feeling Of security still prevails in the

there being that levee cutters will make
their appearance. and armed guards will
be on patrol duty until the crisis is past,

TRAIN Runs INTO 4 BLUFF.
No One Seriously Hurt. but Chance Saved
An From GoinE Into the Missouri.

ST.. LOUIS, Mo. March lo,-The fast
eastbound Missouri Pacific train from Kan
sas City came near plunging into the Mis-
souri, River one mile west Of Gasconade at
4 o'clock this morning. A rock weighing
twenty tons fell from the forty-foot blum
during the night and crushed the inside
rail. The fact that 1t was the inside rail
saved the train, as II swerved into the
blum and away from the river.
The engine and three cars were derailed
and overturned as far as the bluf would
permit. The engineer and fireman were
not fatally injured. Passengers were hurled
out OF their berths or shaken from their
seats, but not seriously injured.

Twenty tiers of parks. one on top of the other.
to occupy the present site OF the Borough Hall
and Borough Hall Park. is an idea that was pre-
sented Yesterday to Borough President Swamstrom
by an elderly man. with snow white locks and
massive brow The Borough President gasped with
amazenent when he heard the details of the plan.
and then silently chided himself for not having
thought of such a stupendous and far reaching
scheme.
The idea of the ancient man was to put up
huge skeleton steel structure, like the Fiatiron
Ruilding in Manhattan. Their were to be no
,,aus however and each of the twenty floors
was to be turned into beautiful park with grass
and shrnbbery and flowers and fountains and
statuary and everything that might add to the
Measure of the thousands, who would be taken to
the various floors in great central elevators.
Borough President Swanstrom told his visitor
that the idea was capital out could not be worked
ont until the Board of Estimate and Apportion-
-, annroDria ted some s50oo.G0 so. The
dreamer said he thought that would be easy, and
,,rotnised 10 see the other members of the board
