atcIy Breaks Out, Adding
to the Horror.

WESTFlELD, ~ j., Jan. 2S.-One of
the most appalling railroad wrecks
that has occurred in this vicinity for
many years, the estimated loss of life
ranging from twelve to thirty persons,
took place last night at Graceland on
the Central Railroad of New Jersey,
near this place, when the Royal Blue
line express plowed ut top speed into
the rear of local train
Immediately after the crash three of
she shattered cars of the local train
took fire, rendering impossible the res
cue of many of the wounded who were
pinned fast in the wreck. Many bodies
are believed to have been consumed.
on board the flier all the passengers,
although badly shaken up, escaped un-
injured save for trifling bruises.
The train which was run into left
New York at 5:45 and runs express TO
Bound Brook, making stops at Eliza
beth, Westtield and plainiield. Beyond
Bound Brook it runs as a local. The
Royal Blue train left fifteen minutes
later, but travels at higher speed
and makes no stop except at Elizabeth
and IS scheduled to ovcrtakc the slower
train just beyond Graceand. where the
latter switches from track 3 on to track
to permit the Royal Blue TO pass.
Last evening freight train was
blocked upon track 4 and the local re-
ccived orders TO proceed on the express
tract, to Dunellen and there take the
=. 41,~ ft,,s,
ceiving orders the train had to stop for
Il hot box. which delayed her so that
when she got under way again she was
due at Duncllen. she had just started
and was moving slowly when the
Royal Blue. travelling apparently at
full speed, which at that point usually
approximates sixty-fve miles an hour,
, crashed into the rear end.
The heavy engine of the Royal Blue
/ tore its way into the rear car and at the
| same time drove the forward end of
! that car into the rear end of the car
| ahead. which in turn was driven into
! the third car, and this in turn was
! driven into the fourth car from the
/ rear. The fourth car was only partly
! wrecked, but the last three were torn
| to pieces.
The engine and the three worst
wrecked cars were piled into an awful
! heap containing at least a hundred
dead and injured. From the mass came
! fearful screams for aid. A minute later
! the wreck caught fire from the tireboX
of the locomotive. The screams of the
injured in the heap were intensified as
they found themselves hemmed in by
| the flames

NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.-The arrest of
four employees of the city. two OF them
employees of the department of taxes
and assessments, hats disclosed. accord
ing to District Attorney jerome, a most
stupendous and farreaching plan to de-
"aud the city of Il part of its income
trough the false swearing off of hun

nto the millions.
The alleged swindlers made the tax
Office their base of operations in imper-
sonating bona fide taxpayers and
swearing off personal taxes in the in
terest of the real taxpayer, who paid
for the deception.
The plan of the gang, said the dis
trict attorney, was to secure the name
of n taxpayer from the books through
the instrumentality of the man on the
inside.
Then n member of the gang would
approach the taxpayer, tell him that
through certain influences he could be
relieved of paying the tax imposed by
the department.
The swindlers represented themselves
MS officials of the tax department. The
district attorney has knowledge of hun
dreds of cases in which the taxpayer

Canal Proposition.

ALBANY, n. Y. Jan. 2S.-While ar
dent advocates of the canal were in
long and serious session yesterday con-
'nmplating the expenditure of SS2OOO,-
)0 for the Improvement of the state
aterways there was gathered in an
her room of the state capitol set OF
IN representing in a great degree the
minant element in Republican pol
CO, planning to so amend the canal
II as to defeat it unless their demands
are granted.
OF the dozen conferrees the mention
of few names only is necessary to
demonstrate that dominant element Of
the Republican party is represented in
the proposed amending of the bill.
Lieutenant Governor Frank Higgins,
Speaker of the Assembly S. Fred
Nixon, Senators lothian L. Aids, lead
er of the majority in the assembly;
James S. Rogers, Senator William
Armstrong and dozen others of lesser
note practically decided that unless Il
$50,000000 state bond issue was added
to the $50, 100000 proposed in the canal
to pass the legislature and to 20 to the
governor. The additional $50,0O0,00
asked for is to be expended, according
to the plans of this contingent in build
ing good roads. The farmers and good
roads interests are to be appealed to
to support the proposition.
These legislators contend that the
counties outside of the direct line of
the canal receive no direct benefit from
the vast expenditure of money pro-
posed under the $S2,0OO,OOO canal APP
preparation They say that if the canal
is to be made available to these outside
counties there must be good roads for
the farmers and producers to convey
their produce to the canal for tranSpor-
tatiOn: that these counties must depend
upon good roads for their increase in
business, as the canal counties depend
upon the canal.

SETTLEMENT PLANS
Venezuela Offers Pledge For
Raising Blockade.
MINISTER BOWEN AWAITS An ANSWER
Controversy seems Likely to BE Set
tied Soon and In IL satisfactory
Manner - Unofficial Reports
That Powers Accept.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27-M mister
Bowen, acting for Venezuela. in return
for the raising of the blockade pledges
30 per cent of the receipts of the ports
of Porto Cabello and La Guayra, the
same TO be collected by a joint COM
mission made UP of representative OF
each of the powers having claims
against Venezuela.
Formal notice of the acceptance of
the proposition has not come to Mr..
Bowen from the representatives of the
allies here. However. such unofficial
information as has reached Mr.. Bowen
confirms him in the belief that the
pending controversy will be settled
'soon and satisfactorily" 1t is learned
that the Italian government all along
has favored an honorable compromise
and has let its allies know the favor
with which it regarded the Bowen
proposition while processing a willing
ness to defer to their views in the mat
ter.
The hfting of the blockade would not
mean the complete withdrawal from
American waters of the allied feet
and it is understood that not only will
the British American feet remain in its
accustomed winter quarters in the
/ Caribbean. but that tie German gov
/ ernmcnt will depart from its ancient
policy, which has been to get along
without station fleets. and will contin
ue the present squadron in American
waters as permanent fleet.
