particularly rough methods, when the referee
gave final warning that he would disqualify the

rHRouGH THE DARDANE11Es.

.Constaninople, Jan. 1.-THE British embassy
here has secured the issue Of an imperial trade
granting the khedivial Navigation company of
Alexandria, Egypt, the same privileges for its
ships to go hence through the Dardanelles with
out stopping as enjoyed by other companies.
The embassy has been agitating the question for
years with no result, until it recently ordered
the Khedivial steamer FL Kahria to pass through
the straits without stopping. This was accom-
plished without incident. When the porte was
notified Of the embassy's action an trade was
issued just before the steamers departure grant

Husband TalEea the enid from The
Mother ana Jumps OF the Train

AN episode which had rs tragic fea-
lures, and allowed father b assert his
love for his infant child, was enacted
on B. & o. passsenr train No. s. iast
night west of this city.

coach when he entered and saw his child
in the arms Of its mother. BE APPROACH
ed his wife, showing evidence of his es-
element by his flushed face and labor
ed breathing. procured the child, took 1t
in his arms and walked to the car door.
When the, train started out from West
Union he stepped OF into the darkness,
leaving his wife alone in the car.
Mrs. McGregor said nothing after the
episode till she reached home, having no
opportunity to get on before.
She refused to grant an interview,
declining in emphatic terms, saying she
nothing whatever to say for publication.
Mr.. aIcGregor did not get of the car
before the train started, and there was
no opportunity for his wife 10 follow, nm
less she jumped from the fast-moving
train.
The incident excited the comment OF
every one who witnessed it, and many
expressed themselves upon the action of
the father, whose love for his child was
asserted by his every movement. It is
said that when ne entered the car and
espied his wife fondling the child that
she found ON the seat, where It had been
left while Mr.. McGregor went into the
other car for a moment, his labored
breathing could be heard the full length
OF the car. His face was flushed and
he was evidently experiencing great ex-
element, though he did not once give
way to anger.
Mrs. McGregor WAS in Parkersburg
Wednesday night, having arrived from
Morgantown, and left at o'clock Thurs
day morning for this city. remarking to
friends that she did not expect to re-
turn.
Upon her arrival at Parkersburg last
night Mira. aIcGregor went to the Chan
cellor. where she remained during the
night.
Mr.. NcGregor left home several days
ago, it is said, with the intention of get
ting his ls-months-old child, which was
then at Mt. Lake Park, left there by
Mrs. McGregor. He was on the train last
night taking the babe to the home Of
some of his relatives, near Cairo, where
he intended leaving it.
1t Is not known how Mrs. McGregor
knew of his being on the train. but IL
is supposed she had received word Of
her husband starting with the child in
his charge. and boarded the train here
in the hope of seeing the babe again.

INTENDED

WORK
Deputy SheriH Found Salem Sps6keasies
Closed and Deserted, with The Town

Deputy sheri6 Fred Fleming. armed
with warrants for spealseasy- men, made
a fruitless visit to Salem Friday eyen-
ing. He expected to catch some Of them
mapping, but he did not. They were too
wise for him and everything was closed
up tight and the town was a. quiet as
country hamlet in midwinter. He
came back and reported nothing doing.
A night or two before that Deputy Sher-
i'll John NJ. Knox and Harvey Fleming
made a similar visit TO that town with
similar result. The method Of slip
ping into town unawarcs may re-
suit in the capture Of the speak
easy fellows. but they have an es-
tablished reputation for being wcll-post-
cd on the coming of the officers. Just
how they work it Is not known, but 1t
is supposed they have friends here who
tip it of to them. and they may have
ability enough along the line of sight
to see the officers coming long before
they get there.

Just about midnight

most exclusively perishable goods, was
running along at good speed, when sew
sfll ears jumped the track and piled
/ themselves together. Eight cars in all
were derailed. They were rather badly
wreclsd ana the contents,a consisting OF
tropical fruits IN the main, were damaged
to . considerable extent.
The wrecking crew Mt Grafton was Inn
mediately brought to the scene of the
wreck and with much effort and hard
work the track was cleared in six or
seven hours after the wreck occurred
The fast express west just after mid
might was delayed about six hours, and
No. going east was also tied up for
Two hours or more.
An the cars except two were placed
back ON the rails. The other two are so
badly wrecked and so badly located that
some time viii be necessary to get them
back On the track.
The property damage was not 50 great
as might have been expected IN a wreck
of this character, but amounts to a con-
siderable figure ON account of the injury
done 10 the perishable gods.
Fortunately, there was no loss of life
and none Of the trainmen were injured.
"a small wreck also occurred today
at Kanawha station. Two freight cars
were derailed and there was some delay
