tended that the demonstration shall be
entirely Of an informal character, with
out parade or speechmaking, only an
assembling Of citizens Of Washington

inally proposed that the reception

Shows Decrease.

De 'Moines, Sept. 1s-According to
preliminary figures of Iowa's state
census, completed by Secretary David
son of the executive council, the state
had a total population on January 1,
1905, 2,2O1, 372 This is a loss of 80, 4s1
since the census of 1900, when the
state was accredited with population
of 2, ,231, ,s53. Twenty-Five of the nine
ty counties showed increase in popula-
ton, while the remainder showed de-
creases. Practically all of the large
cities and counties showed gains. The
loss was almost entirely in rural Sec
tions All of the census authorities
who have studied this years statistics
have agreed that the loss was due to
the enlargement Of Iowa farms and at
ftendant immigration of Iowans to dis
triets where cheaper lands were avail
able.

A DOZEN KILLED.
Elevated Train in New York City
Jumps Track and Falls to Street
Twelve Lives Lost.

New York, Sept. 12.-Twelve per-
sons we're killed and more than 20
injured when the second car of a
Ninth avenue elevated train jumped
the track and fell from the structure
to the street at the junction. Of the
Sixth and Ninth avenue lines at
Fifty third street and Ninth avenue
Monday. The accident, the worst in
the history of the overhead railroads
in New York, came when a south
bound train on the North avenue line
was switched off TO the Sixth avenue
line at the Fifty-third street junction.
The motorman, expecting a clear
track on the direct line Of Ninth ave-
nue., or disregarding the warning sig
nal that the switch was open, rushed
his train along at high rate Of speed.
The first car swung around to right
angle curve, holding to the rails be-
cause of the weight of the train be-
hind. Then the strain became too
great. The couplings broke, the sec
ond car was whirled about almost
end for end.
Suddenly the outer guard rail Of
the railroad structure gave way, a
score of bodies were hurled through
space, and with deafening crash the
car fell to the street. For an instant
it stood fairly on end Then the sides
gave way as if they we're made of
pasteboard belching out mass of
humanity. Those passengers who had
not jumped from platforms and win
dows before the plunge came, were
thrown into a mass at the forward
end Of the car. AS the injured men
and women were struggling to free
themselves, the heavy front trucks Of
the third car on the train fell almost
in their midst as the car itself jumped
partly off the elevated structure and
was wedged against building at
the southeast corner of Ninth avenue
and Fifty-third street, Sd

Was Noted Figure in National Dem
ocratic Politics Served Six Years.
in Congress and Was Consul Gem
eral at London.

Boston, Sept. 15.-Patrick A. Collins,
mayor Of Boston, died Thursday at Hot
Springs, Va. The immediate cause of
his death was a hemorrhage Of the
bowels A telegram received by Mr..
Curran briefly reported the sudden de-
mise Of his chief.
Mayor Collins left here about a week
ago for Hot Springs to obtain greatly
needed rest. He was accompanied by
his eldest son, Paul Collins. He had
complained more or less of being i'll
and had kept to his room for the last
three days, but had not been confined
to his bed entirely. He was sitting up
talking with his son Thursday morn
ing when seized with the attack, death
occurring at nine o'clock.

democrats of the country. He served
IN congress from 1888 to 1889, and was
United States consul general at Lon
don from 1898 to 1897. He was the

rule for Ireland, and he was the first
national president of the Irish Land
League in this country

The news Of the sudden death of
their mayor came as a tremendous
shock to the citizens of Boston. May
or Collins was regarded here as one Of
the last members of the so-called
''old school" in national life. The gem
eral respect in which he was held as a
national figure was enhanced by the
affection in which he was held by the
people Of Boston.

EXPLOSION SETS FIRE TO a BIG
FACTORY IN AVON,
CONN.
Panic Among the Employees Seven
Lives Lost-Eleven Persons In
jured- Spectators Helpless to Save
the Unfortunates.

Avon, Conn, Sept. 16.The explo.
sion OF a fuse, followed by fire in q
building of the Climax Fuse company
here Friday afternoon caused a panic
among 20 employees in the building and
resulted in the death OF seven and In
Jurles that. doubtless will prove fatal
to several others. There was no way
OF coping with the flames. which soon
spread rapidly, and in less than an
hour after the explosion occurred those
who were unable to escape were in the
clutches OF a fire that eventually
burned their bodies to ashes. AS the
day wore on the great crowd that COL
lccted in the hamlet saw the bodies of
men and women roasting in the fire
and were powerless to check the
DANES.
The Victims.
The dead are: William Burke. 40
years old, married; James Joyce, about
S5, married; Robert Mccarthy. aged
IS; James Wallace, married; Mollie
Mccarthy, Miss J. Sullivan, Mrs. M. B.
Tucker. Eleven persons were injured
The exact cause of the accident
which caused the loss of seven lives
may never be known, but it is the ac-
cepted theory here that in an effort to
b:lrn out a stoppage in one of the ma
chimes workman caused an explo
sion of fuse, with the hot iron he
held in his hand
Infammable material was set on fire
and in few moments the room was a
mass Of flames. In an instant there
was mad rush for the doors and win
doWs, and during the scramble many
were pushed back into the building,
while others were severely burned
The scene at the fire was heartrend-
ing. Friends and relatives of the
missing were almost frantic with grief
when it became known that bodies of
those close to them were being burned
to crisp in the ruins of the factory
AS there is no fire department in the
town it was utterly useless to cope
with the flames with buckets.
ke!Tless 70 Save.
AS one of the walls of the second
largest building fell several bodies
could be seen entangled in the mass OF
machinery in the basement, and in a
short time they were reduced to ashes.
Early in the evening the body of wo-
man was seen near the edge of the fire
and an effort was made to pull it away
from the flames, but on account OF the
great heat this was impossible.
Soon after the building in which the
lives we're lost was consumed the fire
spread to the new structure, which was
just completed at cost of $35, 900, and
in few hours this building was gut
ted, only the four walls remaining.
Two smaller buildings were reduced to
ashes, making a total Of four burned,

WARShiP LOST.
Japaasss Battleship, the Mikasa, To-
tally Destroyed by Fire andRxplo-
sdon-Loss Of Life Heavy.

Toxic, Sept 13.-The navy depart
ment Tuesday made the announcement
that the battleship Mikasa had been
destroyed by fire and the explosion of
her magazine, causing the loss of 500
lives, including men Of other ships who
went to the rescue.
A later report says the casualties re-
sulting from the loss of the Mikasa are
five killed, 251 missing and 343 wound
ed.
These figures, which total 500. indi-
cate that at least 343 men were rescued
from the battleship, wounded, but still
alive; that five of the dead have been re-
covered, and that 251 are missing. The
presumption is that the 251 missing men
either were killed by the explosion or
drowned when the ship went down.
Admiral Togo was not on board the
Mikasa when the disaster to the battle
ship occurred.
The fire started from an unknown
cause at midnight on Sunday night,
September 10. Before the officers could
be rescued, the fire reached the aft
magazine. which exploded, blowing a
hole in the port side of the vessel be-
low the water line and causing the
ship to sink. An investigation was i'm
mediately begun to determine the cause
of the fire.
The Mikasa was the flagship of the
japanese navy, flying the flag Of Vice
Admiral Togo, the commander-in-chief.
She was present at all the principal
engagements during the war, and was
on several occasions reported seriously
damaged in action At the battle OF
the Sea of Japan she led the feet into
action, and she was mentioned in con.
nection with some Of the most stir
ring events Of the famous sea fight.

Among the scores of volunteer bosses
of the million dollar fireproof hotel be-

if any man in the idle bunch is aware
of the fact that a young man, not yet
81 years of age. is the responsible fore
man. the real boss, of the fifty or sixty
men engaged in the structural work.
The name of the young man is A. d.
Coutts, jr., of San Francisco, member
of the firm of Coutts & Co., and al
though he is not yet old enough to vote
he has demonstrated to the entire sat
isfaction of the Baker Iron Works
company of Los Angeles the local con-
tractors, that he is thoroughly compe-
tent to put in place the forest of steel
beams that is to rise to a height of
ten stories, the steel work done calling
for an outlay of s1OO 900 from the cash
box of the Bilicke- Rowan Hotel COM
pany.

Mr.. Coutts while he was moving about
quietly, issuing orders and personally
