OMAHA, Neb., Sept. PA Burling-
ton train in Northwestern Kansas last
night was lifted bodily from the track
by tornado, turned a double somer-
sault and landed in the ditch by the
side Of the right of way. Besides the
engine and baggage car, there were
three coaches on the train and each
carried a dozen or more passengers.
Not a single person was injured.
The train left st. Francis, Kansas, at
o'clock for Orleans. Neb. The sky
was then overcast with dark clouds
In fifteen minutes the sky llghtened up
in front and the passengers noticed a
fringe of unprecedented clouds TO the
north, edged with a constant display
Of lightning. A few minutes more and
the train ran into the storm head-on
A passenger who. was on board tells
in graphic words the story of the mir
acles that followed:
The train trembled like a plaything
and slowed down almost quicker than
il takes TO tell it, he said. 1T was
brought to a dead stop by the wind
A number OF women were on the train
and they were almost frantic. 1 tried
to talk to one OF them, but the storm
increased and the coach swayed. It
had grown dark as night Every one
on board was thoroughly frightened.
Naturally, we thought of the recent
Colorado accident.
"A thousand railroad trains could
hardly make more noise than the storm
] saw from their lips that some of the
women were screaming but could not
hear a sound. Then we felt the jar Of
a coach as il left the train. 1t seemed
to be lifted bodily into the air, where
il was turned over and over again and
finally deposited by the side of the
right Of way.
THE storm passed over as suddenly
as IL came. After il had quieted down
the passengers got off and looked
around. The engine had remained on
the track and was putting like some
damaged. but il was singular thing
that not a single passenger or member
of the train crew was injured, beyond
a few slight bruises"

suit of a desperate fight with an in
furiated bull in his pasture Several Of
his ribs are broken and he has many
severe bruises about the head, neck

The rancher was attacked by the bull
just as he had released his horse. The
bulls onslaught knocked him down.
and as the animal dropped to it's knees
over him in an effort to gore bsm with
its short horns, the rancher grasped
the rope through the brass ring in the
animals nose and held on for dear life.
He struggled to his feet and managed
to get the animal near the fence. where
the rope slipped through the ring. By
this time Cardiff had only just enough
strength to stagger a few feet awav
and then dropped to the ground ex-
haustsd.
The animal tore the ring through its
nose and fled across the pasture The
rancher thought it was coming at him
again, but was too weak to even make
an attempt to crawl through the fence.
He was picked up later by some of his
employees and members of his family.

Special Dispatch to Tn. Call.

NEW YORK, Sept 2S.-Herbert
Howe, II years old, started for school
bright and happy at o'clock this
morning, after kissing his mother
good-by. The lad wa obliged to pass
through Percy street. an undeveloped
thoroughfare, which connects State
street and Broadway. He walked brisk
ly along until suddenly out of clump
of bushes at the side of the road
sprang a dozen young fellows, yelling
like Indians and brandishing coils of
rope.
Before he could utter a cry Herbert
was seized by a score of hands and his
arms pinioned behind his back. Two
black silk handkerchiefs were produced
by one of his captors and these we-e
tied over his mouth and eyes, acting
as an effective blindfold and gag. rhe
boy was then ordered to walk along
with his captors.
IN recounting his adventures the
little fellow wept bitterly and exhibited
two long red ridges on his bare arms,
where the cords had cut into his flesh.
The lad is unable to describe exactly
the spot where he was taken. lut says
that after walking long time he was
taken into a wood and through some
bushes that scratched his face. Then
he was laid upon the ground, his feet
were tied together and he felt himself
falling into hole.
Accompanied by Mrs. Howe, who mad
heard of the kidnapping. three detectives
started this afternoon for the woods,
which are about a half mile away.
After a search lasting more than two
hours, the hiding place of little Herbert

as May Handy violets.
Although the secret of the wedding
was so well kept, friends found it out
at the last moment, and the bride re-
ceived numerous wedding gifts, which
were the rarest and most exquisite of
their kind. Miss Handy has always
been noted for being not only the love-
lest but most perfectly dressed woman

her trousseau came from Paris. October

CHICAGO, Sept. 2S.-Financial and
railroad circles in Chicago, New York
and the entire Western country as
we'll were startled to-day by the pre-
liminary announcement of a proposed
plan for a settlement of the Northern
Securities litigation, the Hill-Harri-
man-Morgan dispute over that famous
merger case. and for the formation of
a community of interest" plan SO
broad in its sweep as to take in prop
critics reaching from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Up TO date there has been
no definite confirmation of the report,
but the story as it has been circulated
has attracted widespread attention
and the keenest interest is evinced.
The basis of the report is the con-
ferences now being held in New York.
These are attended by James J. Hill,
L. H. Hartman, ]. Pierpont Morgan,
A. J. Cassatt, E. ]. Berwind and 9TH
ers of the leading railroad mapmak-
ers of the nation. From sources usu-
ally we'll Informed on the moves of
these interests the stery came to-day,
but entirely in the form of rumors
The rumors. however, were sufficient
to induce general buying of the Sc
curities affected by the reported COM
hinntions
The report is that the first move
will be the harmonious ending of the
Northern Securities litigation. The
merger will be dissolved and the prop
erty distributed in a manner satisfac-
tory to the Federal authorities who
prosecuted the case and at the same
time satisfactory to the big interests
behind it. This method is said to be
as follows:

Burlington and Quincy, now part of
the Northern Securities.
The Great Northern, also part of
the Northern Securities Company, to
be retained intact by James J. Hill
its founder and builder.
The Chicago. Milwaukee and st.
Paul tRockefeller) to take the North
ern Pacific and thus gain a through
line to the Pacific Coast, which it has
long desired.
In addition to these moves, which
will all be in manner indicating
friendly relations, the community of
interest will provide an Eastern out
let for the Atchison-a deal in which,
il is believed, the Pennsylvania, the
New York Central and others in the
East figure, as well as Morgan and
Hill. The latter are strong in Erie,
and the proposition to make the
Atchison and the Erie a joint through
line from coast TO coast is said to be
for the mutual benefit of all.
