FIVE DEAD AND MANY INJURED
IN STREET CAR ACCIDENT
At SANTA BARBARA.

Santa Barbara, Cal, April 12.-Five
persons were killed and over twenty
injured in street car accident at the
intersection of Garden and Mission
streets. A heavily loaded car ran of
the track.
Over half of the injured had bones
broken and not a few of them suffered
serious fractures of the skull.
The accident was due to a defect in
the brake apparatus, as was revealed
upon an inspection Of the car after the
accident. While the rear brakes we're
tightly set against the wheels the for.
ward brakes we're Of no service be-
cause of the breaking of part of the
gearing. The motorman discovered
that something was wrong with the
car several blocks above the point
where the accident occurred and en-
deavored to set the brakes, but failed
to check the speed of the car. At the
intersection Of Garden and Mission
streets there is very abrupt curve
and the car was moving at its highest
speed down per cent grade when
the curve was reached. The car was
thrown from the track upon it's side.
One section of the car was smashed
into splinters. Those who were in
stantly killed and many of those who
were most seriously injured were
standing on the guard rail on the side
of the car as it crashed into the
ditch.

Chefoo. April 12.-Reports. apparent
ly on good authority, reached here dur.
ing the day that the Japanese are now
in some force on the north bank OF
the Yalu river and that the Russians
are falling back toward Fenghuang.
cheng.
According to these reports Japan.
csc force consisting of two brigades
of infantry, with some cavalry and
field guns, crossed the river at Kwau.
phien, to the east of the Russian posi-
ton, meeting with practically no op.
position.
1t cannot be verified that a landing
of big Japanese force has been made
in Takushan, but it is generally be-
lieved this is so and that an attack
will soon be made from the east on
Antung, the key of the Russian posi-
ton on the Yalu.
This attack would be followed, nat.
urally, by an attempt to cross the
river at Wiju. 1t is believed here that
this is what has caused the Russian
abandonment of the Yalu river, if the
report is true.

upon his writings, and all of your state ments in regard to his talents I fully en- dorse. But he was not and did not claim to oe infllliole, and sn the interpretation of the canon l think he made a very grave mistake. Your statement of his views accord with what l had learned from other sources, and you made 1t very plain that you accepted his inter pretation. Holding such views, both of you offieiated at marriages under similar oircumstances-Bish Thompson in Mas sachusetts and you in Mississippi. But what were the results. In regard to the first case, l can speak only from report; but l have been informed and l beneve that the clergyman in Massachusetts. who had been married by Bishop Thcmp- son, was brought to trial and deposed from the ministry as soon as the present bishop of that diocese came into office. In regard to the other case I can speak positively. Charges were preferred against Rev Charles Morris and yourself at the samt time. You were acquitted, but what became of him? Tn the report of the standing committee of the diocese of Mississippi, published in the Journal of 1903, it is stated that under date of April 24, 1902: The committee signed

charges and specifications against Rev. Charles Morris and instructed the secre- tary to file presentment with the bishop. and if you will follow the case a little further, you will, find that a few weeks later Rev. Mir Morris was formally de- posed from the ministry. It seems to me that you have but little cause to pride yourself upon an Interpolation, which re- culted so diastrously to the parties con- cerned
