Thursday the city of St. Louis cele-
brated with imposing ceremonials the in
auguration of what is intended to be
the greatest exposition in all history.
The dedicatory program arranged for the
three days, opening with addresses by
President Roosevelt and ex-President
Cleveland, was the most elaborate ever
prepared for any similar event. In adj
diton to the President and ex-President
other dignitaries and officials, the cabinet,
the Supreme Court and members Of the

many thousands attended from all parts
of the Union. While the exposition will
not be formally opened until next year,
the dedicatory exercises marked the cen

to commemorate.
At 10 o'clock Thursday the Mayor

SCORES ARE MANGLED.
Appalling Disaster Overtakes Excur-
sion Party at Detroit.

sion Party at Detroit.
At Detroit eight persons were killed
and forty injured, some fatally, by the
pan-American flyer on the Grand Trunk
Railroad, which rushed into crowd OF
excursionists who were about to board
an outgoing train for Toledo The dis
aster was most appalling. The excur-
sionists were mostly Poles who had jour-
neyed to Detroit for Sunday visit with
friends and fellow churchmen. They
had spent day of merry-lnaking and
celebration in honor of the 10TH ami
versary of Polish freedom, and were
awaiting the excursion train to pull up
on a siding of the Lake Shore road. The
visitors were gathered in groups and
were scattered along the Grand Trunk
track, which parallels the Lake shore at
the scene of the catastrophe, Dequlnder
and Garfield streets.
The excursion train came in sight of
the crowds few minutes after o'clock.
"Clcar the track" was shouted by OIL
Gals of the Polish Lancers who were
in charge. Everyone who had been
standing on the Lake Shore track scam
pered to one side-to join their friends
who stood on the Grand Trunk roadway
Thus it was that the entire party was
assembled in a compact mass when the
through train Numbered in sight The
through train was running at far rate
of speed, it being within the city con-
fines, and its momentum was so great
that the engineer was unable to check
the engine in time. There is slight
curve before the junction of Garfield and
Dequinder streets is reached, and the
mammoth locomotive, with its glarlng
headlight and kissing steam-yent, was
almost in the unsuspecting crowd before
it was realized that death impended
The great engine, with it's seven-foot
driving wheels, rushed into the living
mass of humanity and ground fathers,
mothers and children beneath its wheels
or tossed their forms hither and thither
On it's passage. The express ran for
nearly two blocks before it was halted.
It plowed directly through the center OF
the excursion party. How hundreds es-
capped fearful death will never be known.
Half-dead men and women were car
ried along OH the cow-catcher of the To-
connective. Women with babies in their
arms were dashed down, some to death.
Bodies were flying in the air. Piercing
screams and the last groans of the dy-
ing were heard in unspeakable discord.
Escapes from instant death are being
reported and some are almost too mar
velous to credit Men and women who
say they were directly in front of the To-
connective We're lifted up and thrown to
one side without injury.
-Four of the dead were killed outright
by the train and the others died after
being taken to the hospitals.

PRIEST UNDER ARREST.
Father Wa1ser Held for the Death of
Agatha Reichlin.~

Rev Father Ferdinand Walser, assist
ant pastor of Sacred Heart Church in
Toledo, was arrested, charged with the
murder of Miss Agatha Reichlin, the
handsome sister of Father Chures Reich
lin, pastor of ST. Joseph's Church in Lo-
rain, Ohio, in whose house Father Wal
ser was a guest. The murder was COM
mitted about 1 o'clock Friday morning
1t is charged by the authorities that
Father Walser entered the young WON
ans at the parsonage Thursday
night during the absence of Rev. Charles
Reichlin and crushed her head with a
big paving stone.
Bloodhounds were taken to the scene
of the crime and given the scent of the
murderer and, a dispatch says, they led
the officers to the room occupied by Faith
er Walser at the Reichln home on the
night of the murder. Later the dogs
struck another scent and went directly
to st. Joseph hospital, where Father
Walger spent Friday night. The priest
was taken into custody at the Reichlin
home and taken to the county jail at
Elyria.
The officers admit that evidence
against the priest is purely circumstan-
tial, but say the chain is very strong.
They further declare that there was
much danger Of mob violence at Lorain
and they did not propose to take any
chances in the case. While the feeling
was very strong against the priest and
a big crowd gathered when the officers
boarded an electric car with their pris.
oner en- route to the county Jail, there
was no demonstration.
Sunday morning, upon the altar steps
the police who had arrested Father Wal
ser were denounced by the brother OF
the murdered girl. Trembling with emo
ton from the stress of his feelings, Faith
er Reichlin censured the authorities and
exonerated the priest whom they suspect
ed of killing Agatha Reichlin.

Fricid Wave Causes Great Damage

The recent wintry weather has cost
farmers and gardeners millions of dol
lars and given a setback to early vege-
tation from which the people of the en-
tire country will suffer. killing frosts
from the lake region as far south as Ten
nessee and Arkansas and light to heavy
frosts in northern Texas have ruined

Cotton and corn in Oklahoma and In

The cold was fatal to young live stock

United States government IS about to
undertake to demonstrate to the farmers

most important period of their civic life.
Despite this fact, the exercises were Of
the simplest and most perfunctory char
acter, consisting only of the parade, the
speeches and the pyrotechnics.
Formation of the Parade.
Following the formal welcome Of the
President by the Mayor the parade, I'M
der the grand marshalship of Gen. Cor
bin, formed at the junction of Lindell
boulevard and Grand avenue, and pro-
ceeded through Forest Park to the expo
sition grounds. There the presidential
salute was fired and the parade was re-
viewed by the President and his party
With this introduction the exercises
proper began. At 2 o'clock, in the Lib
eral Arts building, David r. Francis,
president of the exposition, called the
assemblage to order and introduced Car
dinal Gibbons, who offered prayer. Then,
in the order in which they are named,
came the Introduction of Thomas H. Car

dent of the day; the singing of THE
Heavens Proclaming'' by a colossal cho-
rus, Tie presentation Ol Tue DullOlnSS
by President Francis, and the dedica-
ton address by the President of the
United States.
Address of Roosevelt.
With the address of the President, of
course, the celebration reached its eli
max. But thereafter there was an ad-
dress by Grover Cleveland, prayers by
Bishop E. r. Rendrix and Bishop Hen
ry c. Potter, choruses-"Unfold, Ye Por-
tails" and "America''-by the singers,
and centennial salute of 100 guns. At
8 o'clock began the display of pyrotech-
MICS.
Friday was designated International
day. At 1870 a. m. the memb ers of the
diplomatic corps, the representatives of
foreign governments to the exposition
and other official guests assembled at
the ST. Louis Club and were thence con-
Quoted by military escort to the Liberal

Workmen to the number of almost So
900 in all parts of the country quit their
tasks on May 1 to enforce demands for
shorter hours, higher wages or other
improved conditions. While these strikes
involve directly and indirectly between
100000 and 100000 persons, there was
no such upheaval in the labor world as
had been expected several weeks ago.
In many places the demands of tens of
thousands of workers had been granted
in the last few weeks, and in these
branches of industry there was no inter

Der of persons idle, no disorder was re-
