An 8 ppalling Disaster.

Detroit, Mich.-One of the most APP.
FALLING railway disasters in the history
of Canada occurred on the Sarnia divi
sion of the Grand Trunk Railroad. at
Wanstead station, forty miles west OF
London, Ontario. Twenty-eight per
sons were killed and more than thirty
were injured. The scene was one to
raralyze with horror the startled little
knot of spectators. Human beings
were pinned by dozens under the spln-
tered debris of passenger and freight
cars, moaning and shrieking in mortal
agony, wildly crying for loved ones
and vainly seeking escape from the
ruins of the coaches from which ton.
CUES of flame began to creep with aw-
full menace. One woman died singing
Nearer, My God, to Thee while an
other died in her husbands arms sing.

I~ndianoIa Citizens Refuse to Civ.
Assurances for Minnie Cox's Life
When She Has Never Been Tareas-
cneH.

Washington, January 15.-Senato"
McLaurin. of Mississippi, today urged
Postmaster General Payne to have t.
mails for Indianola, sent to Heath
Manu., Miss, instead of GreenVille, pen
ding the re-opening Of the Indian1ia
office.
Heathmann is -four miles from IN
dianola while GreenvilIe is thi: ty mile@
distant. Mr.. Payne stated that if tn
pOstOffice at H~eathnla1n YVES alb e to
handle the additional mail, the ch anga
would be made. Later the dep rtme1t
found it impracticable to fuward the
~Indianola mai to Heathma~n instead
of G~reanvilla. The daily receipts OF
Heathmann now average a little over
thirty-One cents and the office is de-
clared to be Inadequate to take care o
a business that involved several thou
sand dollars additional revenue. The
Indianola citizens therefore will have
to continue sending to Grtenville for
their mail.
Senator McLaurin says there is n
disposition on the part of the peace au-
thOrfflss of I%Hdianola to give assur-
ances in an official way that the post
master. Mrs. Minnie Cox wi b prO-
tected in her personal safety b-cauSa
he ays that there has been no i tt
nation that she is past d1ng-r. TIE
government assurances as are Demand
ed by the p~OstOffice departme- t would
be admission, in the opinion o. the Off
Gals and people of Indiano'a. that sHme
danger threatened Mrs. Cox. They do
not admit anything Of the kind. S-n-
ator McLaurin pointed out that SNn~iff
A.. c. Cox. of ~Indiano,a, il a published
letter had stated that all officials and
citizens. white or black. would b. full
ly protected. He saw NJ reason. how
ever. for procl1iming officially that ne
proposed to do his duty.
