EARTH SWALLOWS TRAIN.
Locomotive and Ten Cars Fall Into
Yawning Abyss.

sHAMoKIN, Pa, July 24.-As en-.
CINE No. 3 was drawing 10 loaded coal
cars to the main slope of the Richard
collieries the ground gave way be.
meath them and engine and cars were
engulfed as though by magic.
Engineer Samuel Ramsey. Con
ductor Mace and Brakeman Paldricx
leaped from the train and ran for
their lives.
The earth continued to sink, slowly
at first. then faster. and just as the
fleeing men reached the opening
slope there was a terrific roar and 1t
appeared as though the entire mine
had caved in.
AS yet it has been impossible to
ascertain a trace of the cars or the
locomotive. Equally as fruitless has
the investigation into the cause of
the cave-in been.

KAISER WILHELM
WILL ADVISE CAR
GERMAN RULER WILL LIKELY
TELL RUSSIAN EMPEROR NOT
TO GRANT CONSTITUTION
ONLY AS A LAST RE-
SORT.
tBy Publishers Press.J

ST. PETERSBURG, July 24.-The
belief prevails here that the advice
which Kaiser Wilhelm will give the
Car at their meetings during the
present absence Of the Emperor from
Russia, will not be to grant a consti.
tuition until as q last resort. II It
becomes absolutely necessary to give
the people a constitution to prevent
a revolution the Car will then In.
sist upon modelling the constitution
after that of Germany which does
not make the continuance of the
ministry in Office dependent upon tie
support of a majority in parliament.
The feeling of resentment against
the Gear for seeking advice from a
foreign potentate, upon questions as
to what is to be done in his own coun.
try is spreading. The people do nor
look with favor upon the meeting be.
tween the two rulers al the present
time.
Whatever course the Car may re.
solve upon as the result of his con.
ference with the Kaiser is likely to
bring about a reactionary movement
against Germany. Anti-German feel.
ing is certain to be aroused among
the Russian people and they will re.
member the interference of the Kali
ser and revenge themselves when the
liberal element comes into power In
Russia.
