PARIS, Aug. II, 4 a. ma catas-
trophe occurred last evening on the
Metropolitan Electric railway, which
runs mostly underground. in which
many persons are believed to have lost
their lives Up to o'clock this morn
ing seven bodies have been recovered
and the search continues.
One of the trains broke down at
Menilmontant station, which is in a
poor and populous quarter of Paris.
This train was promptly emptied and
the train which followed was ordered
to push it to the repair sheds. On the
way these two trains caught fire, but
the employees escaped.
Meanwhile a crowded train reached
Les Charonner, the preceding station,
and the officials, seeing smoke pour
ing out of the tunnel, gave the alarm.
A panic ensued, the passengers strug-
Cling to escape from the station. Amid
the increasing smoke many attempted
to return along the line toward Belle
VILE and they were SuffOcated.
The officials seem to have lost their
heads and are unable to say how many
passengers went out. srhe firemen for
several hours were unable to enter the
station or the tunnel owing to the dense
smoke.
Finally the firemen flooded the burn
ing mass and shortly afterWard they
entered the tunnel. They brought up
corpses of five men and two wom-
en-, all belonging to the working class.
There are believed to be many more
bodies in the tunnel.

ROME. Aug. 1O-It is stated here
that there has been an exchange of
views between the powers regarding
the situation in Macedonia. and that
apparently the powers have decided TO
support Austria and Russia in efforts
to re-establish peace.
Reports previously received here from
Italian consuls in the Balkans predict
ed the present revival of the Insured
ton which the consuls considered to be
almost entirely the work of Boris Sar-
afoff, the Macedonian agitator who is
now in command of the insurgents:
The plan of Sarafoff, as understood
here, is to bring about European inter
vention by provoking the Turks to a
massacre, and the murder of the Rus
sian consul at Monastir, M. Rostkov-
ski, is considered here to have played
into the hands of the revolutionists
in this respect M. Rostkovski is rep
resented here as having been very
arrogant official who boxed the ears OF
soldiers and police whose conduct dis
pleased him.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Post-
master general Payne has decided to

who asked the postofTice department to
provide facilities for distributing open
bundles of papers along the lines from
trains which carry only closed pouches.
The plan contemplates that the bag
gagemen shall be sworn in as postofflce
department employees and that they
shall be paid for their sevices. 1t
is intended that they shall deliver
the papers to those to whom they are
addressed at points along the line from
the car doors. thus saving much time.
1t is estimated that the cost OF the
service through baggagemen will be
much less than if postoffiee employees
were supplied for all such trains.
