THREE KILLED
AND SIXTEEN WOUNDED IN A
WRECK ON THE MISSOURI
PACIFIC.

Upton, Mo, Oct. 30-The second
section of passenger train No. 8 on
the Missouri Pacific ran into the first
section at an early hour this morning
wrecking the Pullman coach Topaz and
the chair car directly in front of it,
killing three of the passengers in the
Pullman and wounding sixteen other
passengers.
Negligence on the part of Engineer
Ramsey and Conductor BURY of the
second section, was the cause of the
smash-up. They had received orders
to pass the east-bOund train No. 10 at
Upton, the first section receiving sim
liar orders. When the first section in
charge of Conductor Lovitt reached
Upton, the train stopped for water and
a fagman was sent back. The train
then pulled up to the station and it
was there that it was hit.
The second section came on at a rate
Of 80 miles an hour and dashed into
the standing train. The engine of the
second train plowed through more than
half the length of the sleeper, badly
demolishing it. The chair car, directly
in front, was also badly wrecked
The injured were taken TO the COM
pany's hospital in st. Louis.

AN ARBITRATION
TRUST PROPOSED
ANDREW CARNEGIE WOULD LIKE

Washington, Oct 30.--Andrew Car
negie favors an arbitration trust. He
Is here as the president of the Brit
ish Iron and Steel Institute, and in
an interview today he said, among
other things
May l live to see the day when
Great Britain, America, Germany,
France and Russia will form com.
pact to settle disputes by arbitration,
"ln such company as that would
like to be a large stockholder.
IL do not thing it would be ad-
visable for any of the powers to in
tcrvene in the far eastern war at this
time. 1t would only aggravate the
combatants.
81 regard the decision to refer the
settlement of the North sea incident
to a commission as one of the great
est triumpbs for arbitration ever
dreamed of by man.
Il favor a union of interests be-
tween Great Britain, Canada and the
United States. The Anglo-Saxon peo-
pie should be brought closer together

try"

sembled, that it is the sense of the
congress of the United States that It
is desirable, in the interest of uni
formity of action by the maritime
states of the world in time of war
that the president endeavor to bring
about an understanding among the
powers with q view of incorporating
into the permanent life Of the civil
lied nations the principle of the ex
emption of all private property at sea,
not contraband of war, from capture
or destruction by belligerents.
Approved April 2S, 1904
"Other matters closely affecting the
rights of neutrals are: The distinc.
tion to be made between absolute and
conditional contraband of war, and
the inviolibility of the official and
private correspondence of neutrals.
"As for the duties of neutrals to-
ward the belligerent, the field Is
scarcely less broad. One aspect de-
serves mention, on account of promi-
nence it has acquired during recent
times; namely, the treatment due to
refugee belligerent ships in neutral
ports
1T may also be desirable to consid-
er and adopt procedure by which
state non-signatory to the original
acts of The Hague conference may
become adhering parties.
You will explain to his excellency,
the minister of foreign affairs that
the present overture for a second
conference to complete the postponed
work of the first conference is not de-
signed to supersede other calls for the
consideration of special topics, such
as the proposition of the government
of the Netherlands, recently issued,
to assemble for the purpose of amend
ing the provisions of the existing
Hague convention with respect to hos
pital ships. Like all the tentative con.
ventions, that one is open to change
in the light of practical experience,
and the fullest deliberation is desir.
able to that end.
Finally, you will state the presi-
dents desire and hope that the undy-
ing memories which cling around The
Hague as the cradle of the benef-
cent work which had it's beginning in
1899 may be strengthened by holding
the second peace conference in that
historic city.
Il am, sir, you obedient servant.

SECRET CIRCULAR
CAUSES TROUBLE
ITALY TRIES TO STOP PROGRESS
OF SOCIALISM,.
Instructions Sent to Officers of the
Army-Trouble Expected
At Elections.

Rome. Oct 30.-Considerable con-
sternation has been created in govern
ment circles by the publication, in the
Avanti, the official Socialist organ of a
secret circular sent by the ministry of
war to all the regimental authorities
throughout the country. There seems
to be no way to punish the editors as
the circular is printed without COM
ment Of any sort.
The purpose of the circular is to de-
feat the Socialist agitation now being
carried on in all the garrisons as a
prelude to Socialist gains during the
coming election. Following so close
upon the announcement by Premier
Giliotti, that the government realized
the strength of many of the claims of
the Socialist party and had no inten-
tion to oppose it on genera! principles,
the indisputable proof that such a cir
cuar has been sent out places the pre-
mier in a somewhat delicate position
The circular states that the loyalty
of the Italian soldiery has so far de-
feated the hope of Socialist agitators
to win it TO their cause, but that the
recent uprising had shown the neces-
sity of precautionary measures. The
confiscation of incendiary literature
found on the soldiers was not sufficient
to Illustrate the efforts of the agitators
and the only effective means was to
meet their propaganda with another,
instituted on behalf of the government.
The officers" the circular says,
shall instruct the soldiers in their
rights, privileges and duties as citi-
zens, they shall make clear to them
that class distinctions are inevitable
under all forms of government. They
shall not shrink from speaking to
them of the social needs and require
ments, but they must explain their ma
ture and impress upon the minds of the
men that any importance in society
can be achieved only by arduos labor
Whoever leads the people on the path
of force is either the victim Of illu-
sions or else a traitor who uses the
people to further his own ambition"
1t is this last sentence particularly
which aroused the ire of the Socialists
and meetings have been called for the
purpose of considering the advisability
of resenting the slur by immediate
action. 1t is feared that the elections
will be the occasion of renewed ex-
cesses.

encased in the shoe. People who saw
the sight turned away sickened.
1t was necessary to send to the city
for jack screws to raise the car up in
order to get the body out from under
the trucks. A car was sent up also to
get the passengers from the north car
that came in before the work had been
completed.
BROUGHT TO CITY.
Coroner Schiltz and Officer thinner
man went to the scene. but there was
nothing that they could do. After the
mass OF human flesh had been untan-
gled from the trucks, it was placed In
Miller & Blanchard's ambulance and
brought to the undertaking rooms in
this city.
No one knew the man. but it is
supposed that he was an inmate OF the
infiarmary. An effort was made to
raise the infirmary by use of the tele-
phone, but neither this office nor the
authorities could succeed
MAN NOT KNOWN.
The dead man was apparently about
55 years Of age. He had full face
and was light complexioued. He had
reddish-grey moustache and hair of
the same color, His clothes were
those of a poor man apparently. He
had slip of paper in one pocket on
which was written the names of sew
eral newspapers, and it is believed that
when he came to town he had been
sent for these papers. He had purse
with about 70 cents in IT, knife and
few little trinkets in his pockets,
The car that did the killing came
back to the barns after the accident,
1t was in charge Of Conductor Pontius.
The motorman, however. was the only
one who saw the man on the track.
Street railway men at the square say
that the man rode on one OF the city

ON MOTION OF GOVERNMENT.
Hearing of Beef Trust Case Passed
to an Unfixed Date.

Washington, Dec. 9.-The hearing
by the supreme court of the United
Sta es court in the case of Swift VS..
the United States, popularity known as
"the beef trust" case. has been passed
TO an unfixed future date at the re-
quest OF the government. The case
was on the courts call for the day
and at the opening of the session AS
sistant Attorney Day appeared and
moved that the case be passed under
the twenty sixth rule of the court,
which rule provides that upon agree
ment by counsel any case may be post
poned ana restored at future time TO
be agreed upon. Mr.. Day stated that
the purpose of the motion was to serve
the convenience of the attorney gen
eral, who desires to participate in the
argument and who was not prepared
at this time to proceed. He added
that counsel on the other side had
consented to the postponement.
Under the arrangement the argu.
ment may be made at any time upon
which counsel and the court agree.
In explanation of his action in NOV
ing to pass the immediate hearing of
the case Mr.. Day made the following
statement:
1T being doubtful whether this case
would be reached in time TO conclude
the argument before the usual recess
lnext week. for the Christmas holi-
days it was deemed best to postpone
the argument until the court conyenes
Jan. 3.
This will avoid the danger of hav-
ing the argument interrupted by the
adjournment for the holidays and 1t
will all then be fresh in the minds OF
the judges when they go into confer
ence to decide the case"
