DOWN THE ROAD|A HEAVIER RATE
Two Trains Collide at Nau- gatuck Passengers
 Shaken Up.

Naugatuck, Oct 17.1-An open switch .was the cause of smash up to-day between an engine and passenger car and three empty freight cars whiah were standing on siding within a few hundred yards of the depot. The passenger train was north bound from Bridgeport to Waterbury and con tained only a few passengers, who al- though uninjured, received severe shaking up.
 When his tin took the siding the engineer immediately set brakes and the train was not going at very great rate of speed when the collision oc- cured.
 Considerable mystery is attached to the fact that the switch was open. An hour before the accident several trains had passed along the main line i'll both directions and all kept the track, while the switch itself has not been used since Friday
 Upon an examination of the switch after the smash 1t was found that the light on the switch had been extin- guished.
 After backing on the main track again the passenger train was able to continue its journey, minus windows and sidelights.

SEA CLIFF NV ssTERy,
John W. Heath shot with His Qvs
 Wenpon.

John w. Heath shot With His Own
 weapon. ry9 ! GLEN COVE, N. Y, oat. IT. .-Thes au.. thorities here have strange and pug zling case to clear up in the death of John W. Heath, who was killed by a load of shot from his own gun in All Souls summer home, near Sea Cliff, a few days ago. Superficial indications point to suicide, but there are enough unexplained details that justify the suspicion of murder. The statement made by Heath to Mrs. Annie Van Slyke few minutes before the shot was fired that white caps were about the house and meant to harm him is one phase of the case that has not been cleared up.
 Heath's widow is prostrated in her home in Glenwood. Her statement was taken there by Justice of the Peace Cocks, and the inquest was adjourned.
 Mrs. Heath said her husband had been drinking heavily, and as he ire quently took his meals at the home rather than walk to the cottage she did not worry about his absence. She was unable to give any information that would tend to prove the suspicion of murder, and she had no knowledge of any enemies her husband may have had

DIR sSAVAGE'S TALK TO HIS CONGREGATION ON
 THE WAR SITUATION
America and England Could Stop the Conflict-CouId an Arrangement be Effected7-It Would Lift the Civilization of the World; This Preacher Says Some Wars Are all Right. But Others Are Not

New York, Oct 17.-Althouqh de- claring that all wars have not resulted in evil, pr Minot J. Savage, comparing . war and peace'' before his congrega- ton in the Unitarian church of the Messiah. has asserted that if there could he some sort of understanding between England and America, thpsss two nations could keep the peace and lift the civilization of the planet; but 1n order teS do this, he added, they should need to be strong In armies and strong in nayies.
 No patriotic American is willing to concede," said Dr Savage, sthat the war of the Revolution was a wicked war. The war of 1872 was not an evil, nor the civil war. If there ever was an unselfish war 1t was our late war with Spain,
 We must recognize that there are certain admirable qualities in human nature that are trained in the midst of conflict. Obedience, hardihood, readiness to sacrifice, consecr8tion to some great end without regardtto cost, the development of the. heroic quali> ties these have been in the past pe- culiarly associated with war, and there are 8 few great names in the world that the world would be poorer were it possible to forget.
 ,ss' q do not believe that war will cease to exist for hundred or five hundred years. But do believe that this con- dition of peace is the ideal, and that we are working toward 1t. War was the common condition one time, and no nation thought of apologizing for going to war for any cause. To-day no civilized nation dares defy the pub lie moral sentiment of the world''

RESUMED AT DAYBREAk:
 RUSSIANS HOLDING ON
St Petersbur Says Tokio is Exaggerang at War Office is Brighter Kuropatkin Took the Offensive Again To-Day.

St Petersburg, Oct r, 1:55 p. ni.--- Official reports received by the war of flee, dated. early this morning, say the battle was resumed at daybreak to- day, that the Russians still hold the right flank of the Shakhe river, that the pressure on the Russian left has been relieved, and that the contest is continuing on the right, where the Japanese are still seeking to break through the Russian center, evidently in order to get possession of the rail- road and cut off the Russian army from Mukden.
 Unofficial reports say the Russians had some successes at Shakhe yester- day where General Kuropatlxin again took the offensive.
 While admitting that the Russian losses are very heavy, but not offering figures the general staff declares the Japanese reports of the Russian loss es are exaggerated while their own are minimized.
 The feeling at the war office to-day is slightly brighter as it becomes evil dent that the Japanese have not cut of any of the Russians and that General Kuropatkin is able to stand like a stone wall. The right wings of both sides are believed to be greatly ex- hausted by their long sustained ef forts The main fear is that the un- explained quiet on the Russian left may presage some strategical stroke of which Kuropatkin has not yet been appraised.
 One of the aides of General Grippen- berg said to the Associated Press this morning: fsfsE
 Even if Kuropatkn has been badly defeated, provided it does not end in a rout and disaster, in my opinion. his offensive movement should be. ap- proved. Only by hammering away can we ultimately hope to smash the Japanese. Kuropatkin is simply pre- pairing the way forlus when we arrive with the second army

Gaedke, the war correspondent of the Tageblatt, telegraphs from Mukden that when he left the battlefield yes terday at 3:3O p. m., general engage ment was in progress which was not yet decisive although not unfavorable for the Russians. The battle opened at o'clock in the morning twelve miles south of .Mukden. At about 2 p. m. he heard heavy artillery firing in the mountains eastward, where he un- derstood General Stakelberg was at tacking the Japanese right flank. An immense number of wounded were ar irving at Mukden. On this, the eighth day of the lighting, the weather was fine
 Colonel Gaedke sent another dis patch dated Saturday, which was de- ta1ned at St Petersburg, describing the operations on the Russian right, which he accompanied. He says that after four days hard fighting with heavy losses, the Russians had reached Il point at the base of the preclpit0us heights of Tumfn pass which was uc- cupied by Japanese. The Russians were only about 300 to 600 yards dis tant from the Japanese positions and intended storming them the morning, of the 18th, but the order to retreat arrived during the night. The Rus sians fought with admirable persist ence and skilk Their artillery was somewhat greater than that of the Japanese in number of guns and far superior in effectiveness. The infat- try and artillery co-operated with great success. Tn retreating from the pass the Russian forces got away without firing a shot The wounded were carried away on stretchers. The incessant artillery firing heard from the Russian center and right on the. 14th was considerably stronger than tie firing at Liaoyang.
 The Russian losses up to the even ing of October 13 were estimated at 16,O0O
