Oklahoma as a state it will be in con

is possible that such a bill can be

During the afternoon the strength
of the pontitf began to fail him so
rapidly and his condition became so
critical that it appeared that only a
few hours of his life remained to him.
1t was, therefore, deemed wise to ad-
wise him of his grave condition, and
this was done with tender precau-
ton. Pope Leo was thus prepared
for his last communion, which was
administered last night with the par
ticipation of all the cardinals now in
Rome and the whole of the pontifical
court.
Rome, July "a bulletin issued at
o'clock last evening said: Accent
uated symptoms of general depres-
sion are appearing. The pope's res
piration is more frequent and super
fetal and his pulse is so weak that
sometimes it is imperceptible. His
temperature remains under normal
and his intellectual faculties are un-
impaired"
The pope during the day received
Count Riccardo Pecci, nephew, and
spoke to him with great serenity of

with him, and then the pontiff re-
ceived his secretaries, conversing
with them regarding personal affairs,
instructing them about his writings
and giving directions as to the dis
posal of his books.
At 0 o'clock last night his holiness
was unmistakably sinking, so that
DR.. Lapponi consulted with the pope's
relatives, Cardinal Rampolla and
other ecclesiastics, who decided that
extreme JUNCTION should be given, and
it was administered by Mgr. Pifferi,
Pope Leo's confessor.
Rome, July S.-The following bulle-
tin was issued Tuesday afternoon by
Pope Leo's physicians:
THE test puncture OF the pleura
has been made and 500 grams of
liquid have been taken OFF. \ rapid
examination showed that some mu-
cous was rattling in the lung which
was originally affected. The pope
underwent the operation with cour-
age. His general condition is now
better"
A bulletin issued at $3.50 last night
said: The condition of the pope, as
indicated in the last bulletin, con-
tinues sufficiently satisfactory. His

HEAD-ON COLLISION
Twenty-three People Killed at
Rockfish, Va.
A Passenger Train on the southern
Railway Crashes Into n Local
Freight Two Engineers are
Among the KiIled-Both
Engines Wrecked.

Washington, July s.-Twenty-three
persons were killed and nine persons
injured in head-on collision on the
Virginia Midland division of the
Southern railway at Roclifish, Va, at
IL minutes after o'clock Tuesday
afternoon. Passenger train No 30,
leaving Washington at 11:15 a. m. for
Atlanta, Ga, dashed into local freight
No. 6S, standing on the main line of
the road at that point, wrecking both
engines and the baggage and express
cars of No. 80. The baggage car and
the second class passenger coach i'm
mediately following it telescoped.
The coach was occupied mostly by
colored people. The casualties thus
far reported in detail are as follows:
Killed:
Engineer Davis, of train No. 35.
Engineer Mccormick, who was rid
ing as passenger on No. 6s.
\ colored fireman on No. 6S.
The freight train was in charge of
Conductor Brubeck and Engineer
Hale and at the time of the accident
was on the return run from Lynch
burg to Charlottesville. Rocktish
station is midway between these two
points and the track there is n single
one. Engineer Hale had orders to
get out of the way of the fast pas
enger train, but for some reason
which has not vet been explained he
had overstaycd his time and had fail
ed to take siding so that the pas
senger train could pass. The trains
came together with a horrible crash
and fearful scene OF panic ensued
when the occupants of the cars real
lied what had occurred.
Train No. 35, which ran into the
freight, was made up of an express
car, a baggage car, two day coaches
and two Pullman cars The two Pull
mans formed an early morning New
York connection at Washington for
Atlanta and the south. The train ar
irving here at 1882 a. m. from Bos-
ton also connected with No. 35. No.
35 was in charge of Engineer Davis
and Conductor Mays. One of the
passenger cars of the train was sec
ond class day coach and the other a
vestibuled car.
Engineer Mccormick, who was a
passenger on the freight train. was
going to Charlottesville to take n
train south at the time he met his
death. The engineer of the freight
escaped without injury.
1t was at first reported that Bag
gagemaster Payne, of train No. 35,
had met death in the wreck. Later
reports, however, show that this is
, Incorrect He was caught under one
Of the coaches and was badly stunned
but later he revived and probably
will recover. 1t is now said to be al
most certain that of those killed 10
were colored persons, as the second
class coach which was telescoped
was occupied almost exclusively by
them.
Later advices from the scene of the
wreck are that the freight train,
which was on the main track, had
been there six minutes longer than
the orders directed when the collision
occurred.
