KILLS TWO MEN,.
Train Strikes Wagon Loaded with
Dynamite and Terrific Ex-
plosion Follows.

Cumberland, Md, Sept 24.-Fast
freight No. "a, on the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad, struck wagon loaded with
$50 pounds of dynamite at the crossing
at North Branch, w. Va, four miles
east of here, Friday afternoon. Two
persons were killed and nine were in
jured, three of them seriously. James
Laing, who drove the wagon, escaped
with only trivial injury, as did the two
horses, although the latter were blown
so yards into a field. According to eye
witnesses, Laing, hearing the train, be-
came terrified and stopped on the track.
The wagon was within three feet of
clearing it when the engine struck the
rear end, carrying it so feet before the
explosion. Laing deserted the wagon
and ran down from the track into a
ditch. He was knocked down and rem
dered unconscious for time, but the
force of the explosion passed over him.
The engine was overturned and stripped
and seven cars following. loaded with
high-grade merchandise, were broken,
several being demolished. The tracks
were thrown out Of the bed and twisted
serpentine, while rails were snapped like
pipe-stems. Engineer Pike was held
under iron scraps on top Of the boiler
while being slowly cooked to death. It
required four men to extricate him.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.
Compromise Is Reached and Her.
rick Is Nominated for
Governor.

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 22..-Out of q
situation which at times seemed al
most impossible of amicable solution,
the leaders of the democratic party on
Wednesday found a way to unanimous
action. and in the afternoon the state
convention adjourned without day,
after having nominated unanimously
D. Cady Herrick. of Albany, for gov
ernor, and full state ticket. Herrick
is essentially compromise candidate
between Edward M. Grout and Edward
M. Shepard, both of Brooklyn, who
practically drove each other from the
field.
The platform is. chiefly devoted to
state issues. It "arraigns before the
bar Of public judgment the one man
power that to-day dominates the re-
publican organization of New York
state" The democratic national plat
form and resolutions adopted at St.
Louis in July last are Endorsed, as
complete expositions of democratic
principles and policies. upon all the
living issues of the present time. The
platform also Endorses the democratic
nominations for president and vice
president of the United States.

KING PETER CROWNED.
No Hostile Demonstration Attends
Coronation Of the Servian
Ruler. EST

Belgrade, servia, Sept. 22.-Peter
Karageorgevitch was crowned king
of Servia Wednesday. There were no
hostile demonstrations and no attempt
to carry out the numerous. threats
against the new kings life. In the SOL
emn ritual of the Greek church and in
the elaborate state procession which
preceded and followed the coronation
the tragedy of Servia's previous ruler
found on. echo. Amid the thunder Of
the saluting guns from the royal pal
ace and the garrison King Alexander's
murder was 1t least outwardly forgot
ten. The services took place at the
cathedral and lasted for three hours.
Wearing the crown on his head and
fully robed, the king left the cathedral,
remounted his horse and rode through
the crowded streets to the palace.
There, in the grand festal hall, King
Peter received the congratulations of
the diplomatic corps and others, as
cended the royal throne and once more
took the scepter and orb in his hands.

TRADE REVIEW.
Many Helpful Features Contribute
to Continued Expansion
Of Business.

New York, Sept. 24.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review Of Trade says:
''Trade expands steadily as confidence
increases with the harvesting of the
crops. and mercantile collections are
less tardily met. Lower temperature
stimulates the demand for fall and win
ter wearing apparel, and there is more
disposition to prepare for the future
rather than to confine operations within
the limit of immediate requirements.
This Improvement is extending to all
departments of manufacture, and in the
aggregate there is less idle machinery
than at any recent date. Settlements Of
labor disputes have helped in the devel-
opment of this favorable condition.
Failures this week aggregated 225
in the United States, against 232 last
year, and 80 in Canada, compared with
10 year ago." " =
Bradstreet's says: "Cool weather,
while retarding or injuring some late
crops, has been stimulating to fall
trade, both wholesale and retail, which
shows an apparent increase in volume
over a year ago. The Improvement is
most marked in dry goods, clothing,
groceries, shoes and hardware. Distrib-
utive trade is better in the northwest,
portions of the east, and very generally
throughout the south. The central west
also shows q continuance of the i'm
provement noted last week, and wide
spread moderate betterment in collec-
lions is feature deserving special men
ton. A disposition is shown on the part
of farmers to hold their products for bet
ter prices, this being true in many Sec
lions, notably the south and the north
west. The labor situation is rather quiet
on the whole, although some notably
large strikes continue unsettled

Synopsis Of Republican Vice Presi-
Dental Candidates Letter Ac-
.acepting the Honor. =

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 22.-sen-
ator FAirbankss letter Of acceptance
has been given to the public through
Hon. Elihu Root, chairman Of the noti-
fication committee. In it the republic
can vice presidential nominee sticks
closely to q treatment Of the various
planks Of the republican platform. and
outlines the policies Of the party In the
future by what 1t has done in the past
seven years. In commenting upon the
work Of the state department during
that time, he refers to tho conclusion
Of 30 different treaties, among which
he mentions the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty, superseding the Clayton-Bul-
wer convention; the Panama canal
treaty; the trade convention with Chi
ma and Cuba, and the Alaskan boun-
Diary treaty. These treaties, he be-
lieves, point to the efficiency Of repub-
lican diplomacy.
Senator Fairbanks finds but one is
sue which the democrats have raised.
That is the tariff. He does not believe
the voters Of the country, either the
employing classes or the employees
wish to cut the tariff schedules to such
an extent as to bring foreign labor in
to competition with American labor
He says the republican party. as the
inaugurators Of the protective system
under which America has expanded
tndustrially and commercially, is the
only party to be entrusted with the
regulation Of this important subject.
Other planks which he deals with at
considerable length are those relating
to the maintenance of the gold stan
dard; the regulation of trusts and the
enforcement of the Sherman antitrust
law, and the Interstate commerce laws,
charging the democratic party with
having done nothing towards safe
guarding legitimate interests in these
directions. He refutes the charge Of
extravaganza in government expendi-
lures; applauds the presidents course
in dealing with the insurrection In
Panama and in the government Of the
Philippines.
