GEN. MILES ON WAR.
Delivers Address on subject Of Rs.
ductlon Of Armament.

Boston, Oct. IA public mass-mest-
ing was held in Park Street church
Thursday night to discuss the hope for
reduction of armament as well as the
menace to universal progress of great
armies and navies. Gen. Nelson A.
Miles, U. 8. A., retired, was the prin-
cipal speaker. Gen. Miles said, in
part:
"The settlement of International con-
troversies by the dread arbitration of
war involves the destruction of tens of
thousands, and some times hundreds
of thousands of the young men of both
countries. Could any rule, code or
method be more void of reason and
Justice?
THE great majority Of wars in the
worlds history have been occasioned
by the selfish ambition of some usurp-
er or cruel tyrant, the intrigue of un-
scrupulous men or the avarice and
greed of a people. The deadly war
now being waged between two power
full nations in the Orient, can not bene-
fit either country, but must impoverish
both for the next hundred years.

must retard human progress

ment of peace that would compromise

Six Railway Employees Were Suf.
located by Coal Gas Under
the st. Clair River.
TWO OF The DEAD WERE RESCUERS
Fireman Saved His Life by Jumping
Into the Partly Filled Water
lank of the Tender.
He Remained There For Nearly Two
Hours Before He Was Rescued,
and His Escape Was Little
Short of Miraculous.

Port Huron, Mich, Oct. 10.-Six en-
ployes of the Grand Trunk were suf.
focated to death by coal gas early Sun
day in the st. Clair tunnel which runs
under the st. Clair river from Port
Huron to Sarnia, Ont. A coal train
broke in two while passing through
the tunnel and three of the train crew
we're suffocated while part of the train
lay stilled in the tunnel. The engi-
neer lost his life when he returned
and endeavored to push the stalled
cars back to safety, and two other res
cuers perished in vain attempts to
penetrate the gaseous atmosphere Of
the great tube.
The train, which entered from the
American side Of the tunnel. was
made up of II coal cars. When 1t
i2ed that the accident had happened
and with the three cars that were
still attached to the engine, steamed
out of the tunnel into the Sarnia
yards. He hastily detached his en-
gine AMI went back into the tube for
the stalled cars. When his engine
reached them he attempted to push
them back through the tunnel and out
of the American portal. The engine
and ears rolled back into the gas la
den tunnel and Engineer Coleman was
suffocated at his post in the engine
cab. His fireman, Fred Forester. with
great presence of mind, jumped into
the partly filed water tank of the en-
gine, where there was enough air to
preserve his life, although he is in a
serious condition.
When the news OF the broken train
reached the American side OF the tun-
mel, Superintendent A. S. Begg, ac-
companied by two other employees,
started in on foot, hoping that the
train was near enough to the entrance
go that hey might rescue and carry
out some of the crew. They had gone
but a short distance when the coal
gas became sitting and Begg succumb-
ed. The other two rescuers succeed.
ed in crawling to the portal Of the tun.
mel on their hands and knees.
Meanwhile preparations were being
hiott at titC odi Cuu VI tuG tuuucl
to rescue the imprisoned train crew.
An engine with party Of rescuers
entered the tube and had proceeded
but short distance when they found
John Haley. a track walker lying un-
conscious on the track. He was taken
out and again the engine plunged into
the gaseous atmosphere. The rescu.
ers were overcome, however, by the
gas before the train was reached and
Brakeman McGrath died. Switchman
Blake, who was member Of the par
cy. after time made another attempt
to penetrate the gas, and this time
succeeded in reaching the stalled en-.
gine. coupled it to the cars and ran
the train out into the daylight. Con.
ductors Simpson, Tinsley and Gillis
were found dead in the caboose. Fire.
man Forester was in the water tank
of the engine nearly two hours before
he was rescued, and his escape Is lit.
