ground that 1t might be interpreted as

WAR TO COME SOON.

London, Aug. s.--A news agency dis

The London papers print mail let
tels descriptive Of the Macedonian git-

July, which indicate that the eommiG-
tee was vigorously preparing for an up
rising at the close Of the harvest. The
members Of the committee, according

ing for an outbreak of war between
Turkey and Bulgaria or some other sem
sational occurrence, such as massacre

just possible that the committee may
still further put off the date of the out

biAmes Engineer and lie Says the
AIR Brakes Failed 20 Work = His
Words Branded a. False.

Durand, Mich. Aug. 10.--An air
brake refusing to work on the second
section Of Wallace Bros circus train
caused a rear-end collision with the
first section in the yards q the Grand
Trunk railroad 1t an early hour this
morning, in which 2S people we're
killed outright and more than dozen
injured. The coroner's jury today
viewed the remains and adjourned un-
I'll August IA, when the inquest will
be held.
In discussing the question OF respon-
sibility for the horror, the railroad
officials unhesitatingly lay il to EDgi-
neer Probst, of the second section Of
the train. Probst says the air brake
on his train refused to work, but the
officials declare he could have stcpped
the train in time TO have avoided seri.
GUS consequences. The official report
on the accident declares positively that
the air brakes have been tested since
the accident and found to be in perfect
condition and there is evidence that
they weie not applied.
One Of the oiiciaIs in discussing the
acs ident.and its gause said that be be-
lieved that Engineer Probst had ex-
hausted his air in checking bis train
several times between lansing and
Durand and failed to charge his tank.
The head brakeman and fireman, who
were on the engine, bear out Engineer
ProDst's ssatement that the brakes re-
fused 10 work.
The cars standing stationary of the
6fst section we're telescoped and the
engine and Eve cars OF the moving train
we're demolished. The rear car Of the
trst section was cabooee in which the
trainmen were sleeping and the next
two were filled with sleeping circus
men. The greatest loss Of life was in
the caboose.

RAPIDLY FALLING AT TOPEKA
Another Day is Expected TO See he
ginning of RehabitatIns of
the City.

TOPEKA, Kan, June 3.-The Kansas
river is rapidly falling At p. m. tonight
the flood had fallen four feet. In a few
days the work Of rehabilitating North To.
peka may be begun. The situation tonight
may be summarized thus:
Total number of known dead. twenty
two; unidentified dead, five; reported dead,
sixty-six. The depth of the river is yet
twenty-three feet. which Is seven feet
above the highest ever~known in previous
years.
Governor Bailey has issued proclama-
tlon calling for help and asking that con-
tributions be sent to William Sims, treas
urer. The Topeka. Commercial club will
accept all offered contributions. The gen.
eral relief fund has passed $4,000. The
Elks passed $4,000.
The fund in the hands of the governor
now amounts to $780, II is expected that
the city water supply will be resumed
some time tonight. All who are held in
buildings in North Topeka are safe and
comfortable and no one in the flooded dis
trict is in danger. All the homeless are
being well cared for. More than 100 depu-
ties are guarding property in North To-
peka.
The only railroads operating out Of To-
peka are the Missouri Pacific. south, end
the Santa Fe, west. The governor may
call an extra session of the legislature to
provide state relief for all sufferers from
floods in Kansas, though Governor Bailey
hopes his appeal for help will bring enough
money to meet the emergency. If 1t fails
he says, he probably will ask members of
the legislature to come here for a day
without expense to the state and make
the necessary appropriations
