The injured list foots of eighteen.
The collision was between the Ma

but it lost time in reaching Kentwood.
Near Kentwood the express ran down
the accommodation. The rear coach

groes, many of them section hands,
was completely demolished. The 10.
comotive of the express did not: leave
the, track and after an hours delay
the express train proceeded on it's way
The responsibility for the accident
will be: hard to-, figure. out. The first
train was forty-five minutes late and
the last five minutes behind and the
two trains were virtually running on
each others time. The engineer OF
the last train claimed that he had or.
ders for a clear track to Chatawa
while the operator at Tangipapo
claims that he s;gnalled the train tc
stop. intending to hold it ten minutes
but it went on and struck the train

Democrats Will Oppose Canal Treaty
With Panama.
Washington, Nov. 13.--Democratic
senators have determined to oppose
the ratification of a canal treaty with
the new republic of Panama, should
the administration enter upon treaty
negotiations with that country. The
Democratic steering committee is
said to be unanimous in condemna-
ton of the recognition the United
States has given to the creation of "A
new government on the isthmus,
though the announcement has been
made that no course Of opposition has
been definitely adopted. s..
1t has been learned ON the author
ity Of member of the Democratic
steering committee that the sentiment
of the committee is to attack any ef.
fort to open negotiations with the new
republic and go before the country in
support Of the Spooner act to show
the party is not antagonistic to the
building Of canal. It is claimed that
the law is on the side Of the Demo-
cratic programme, inasmuch as the
6pooner act is 4 Republican measure.
This act authorizes the president to
proceed to the construction. of 4 canal
on the Nicaraguan and Costa >Rican
route In the event negotiations with
Colombia are not concluded within a
reasonable time for the Panama
