John Martin, Wilmington, mail clerk.
both legs confused and injured about the
back.
L. b. KINNEY of Philadelphia, mail clerk,
arm injured and back sprained.
At the place where the collision occurred
the tracks of the Delaware division cutoff
cross the main line track almost at right
angles.
The Norfolk express was proceeding at
a rapid rate, when suddenly Engineer
Beckley saw the lights of Il freight train
cross his path. The next instant his loco
motive had plowed through the middle of
the freight. The force of the collision
hurled the express locomotive and tender
over to the right and the mail coach and
baggage car to the left.
Within a few seconds after the collision
flames shot up from the cars. and crew and
passengers began the work OF saving bag
gage and mail
Assistance was promptly sent from Will
mington by special train. and two fire COM
panies went to suppress the flames. But
SO quickly had the fire spread that of over
two were burned. The mail clerks had not
time to get their clothing, and one of them
says he lost 800 which was in his coat.
The crew of the express car succeeded in
Of it was later destroyed by the flames.
1t was stated officially today that the
freight train was proceeding under right of
way and that all lights were properly set.
The accident. it was said, was due to the
engineer of the Norfolk express failing to
observe the signals in time.

INTEREST IN BEAVERS
When and Where Will he
Be Arrested?
MR.. ROBB RETURNS
NEITHER HE NOR OTHER OF
FICIALS WILL TALK
Statements by Counsel and District At
torney Youngs-Award Of Con-
tracts Confirmed.

Interest in the Post Office Department
investigation has been transferred to New
York, where George w Beavers, former
superintendent of the division Of salaries
and allowances, is apparently, to use a
figurative expression, swapping his fingers
al the government authorities.
Beavers was indicted by the federal grand
jury in Brooklyn last Thursday on charges
of having received money in connection
with the purchase by the Post Office De-
partment of automatic cash registering ma
chimes
Beavers home is in Borough Park.
Brooklyn. but he has not been there, ac-
cording to reports from New York, for
more than a week. Everything seems TO
indicate that Beavers. on the advice Of
legal counsel is trying to force the gov
ernment officers to cause his arrest in New
York.
The understanding is that. If service is
made in Manhattan, Beavers will necessar
lily have to be accorded hearing before
United States commissioner there and
that the Post Office Department authori-
ties. who have worked up the case, will
be compelled to "show their hand"
The situation is a complex one. Colonel
YOungs. United States district attorney for
the eastern district of New York head

sidercd the situation of such Importance
as to warrant his seeking the aid of Assist
ant Attorney General Robb.

Robb at his Office in the Post Office
Department about o'clock this morning.
He went to his office directly from the
train that transported him from New York.
He read his morning mail and was not to
be found about the building after 8 o'clock.
1t is generally understood that Robb and
District Attorney Morgan II. Beach were
together the greater part of today confer

by the grand jury.

Interview With Svampa.

The Tribuna today published an interview
with Cardinal Svampa, archbishop of Bo-
logna. who, the paper says, has quite re-
covered from his stroke of paralysis. The
cardinal is quoted as saying:
Il believe that the conclave Will be very
short, as were the last two. At the utmost,
| think 1t may take one week. as now there
does not exist in the sacred college the
marked political differences of other times
Therefore. it will be possible to arrive at
an understanding more easily and quicker
The interviewer asked the cardinal what
he thought the policy of the future pope
would be in regard to the sO-called Roman
question. Will it remain rigidly unchanged
or will the new pope inaugurate a modus
vivendf which r-any persons in both camps
wish for? Cardinal Svampa replied:
mo one today can say with certainty
anything about it But 1t must not be for
gotten that whoever is elected will bring
something personal into the attitude of the
holy see regarding that question. something
which more or less must differentiate from
the attitude of the former pope. Besides
every historical fact of great Importance
brings with 1t changes which ameliorate or
aggravate pre-existing conditions. Every

The second ground Of objection
was that the statute under which the

makes all gambling felony. The

LOST HEIR FOUND.
William Rafferty,, Wanted In East,
Turns Up In Seattle.

Turns Up In Seattle.
Seatte.-WiIliam Rafferty,, a sec
ton gang foreman who has been want
ed for years by lawyers that ne might
establish his claim to a share Of an
estate left him b. relative in the
east. was found in a saloon on First
avenue. says the Seattle P.-I
His discovery was brought about
by a story that was printed in the
Post -Intelligencer
Rafferty, was in great glee last
night when told of the prospect be
fore him. For a dozen years he has
worked on railroad sections and this
property has lain tied up for years
on account of his exact whereabouts
being a mystery. for a transient Ia
bOrer on the railroads is sometimes
a hard person TO locate, although
those interested had vague infOrma
ton that he was somewhere on the
northwest coast.
The way it happened is this said
Rafferty,. II told old granny one day
that she would never die till some
body killed her with a Ratchet. and
so | lost her friendship and never
thought Of her since. But the thing
is all right now and you can say
that am the Identical ". NJ. Rafferty,
and | am one of the three that the
property is to go to-" He also has
information that the estate is valued
at 100000 and he sees easy times
before him for the rest of his life.
The developments by which he
came to the knowledge Of his good
fortune are strange as anything IL
fiction. A few days ago a young man
named Frank Grace was arrested at
Everett on a charge Of vagrancy. He
explained that he had come west
seeking an uncle. w. NJ Rafferty,, who
was heir to a large fortune in the east
and who was supposed to be in Ever
EFT or Seattle The young mal S
funds ran out and he found himself
in trouble. but when he told his bust
ness here he was released and the
publicity thus given the matter was
the means Of bringing the two to
gether through friends and agents
who knew ". NJ Rafferty,. While
Grace was in Everett seeking his
uncle the latter was in MarysvI.e,
only a few miles aWay.
Rafferty, is man OF about oU
years of age. He came here from
Minnesota, but for years has had no
communication with any OF his rela :
tives in the east. He says there is
not the slightest doubt as to his aDli-
ity to establish his right to a share
of his grandmOther's estate. He has
attorneys engaged on the matter and
is somewhat reticent about discuss
ing the details of his good fortune
until everything is thoroughly settled.
