ERs INJURED IN SERIOUS
RAILROAD DISASTER.

Harrisburg, Pa, May 11.-Twenty
persons are believed to have been
killed and approximately 100 injured
BY the wrecking Of the Cleveland and
Cincinnati express, westbound, on the
Pennsylvania railroad, which dashed
into wrecked eastbound freight train,
exploding q car filed with $4,000
pounds Of blasting powder. The
wreck occurred in the southern part
Of Harrisburg at 1:40 a. m. It was
one of the most terrible disasters ever
experienced by the Pennsylvania rail-
road.
The primary cause Of the wreck
was shifting engine. 1t was going
west slowly when the engineer Of the
eastbound freight train saw it coming
On his track. He applied the airbrakes
suddenly, which caused the middle of
the freight train to buckle, showing
several of the cars onto the westbound
passenger track. A moment later the
express, one of the fastest night trains
on the road, came along and dashed
into the wrecked cars. The next in
slant the boiler of the passenger loco
motive exploded. The wreck took fire
and those who escaped began the work
Of rescue. Six minutes after the ex-
press struck the freight wreck. the
railroad men say, the flames reached
the car filed with powder. There was
flash and a deafening roar. The
earth trembled as though some terrible
seismic disturbance had occurred. All
who were rot killed and injured by
the explosion fed from the awful
scene.

CHICAGO STRIKE SOON TO END.

Labor Trouble Expected to Terminate
In Short Time.
Chicago, May 17.-That the present
strike will be called of probably with
In forty-eight hours and certainly by
the end of the week is the assertion
now made both by members of en-
ployers' association and the conserva-
tive element In the ranks of the team
sters.
Chief among the causes which led
to this prediction are, first the firm
stand taken by Mayor Dunno. when in
conference with President Shea and
officials of the local teamsters' union,
he assured them that any further
spread of the strike would certainly
make it necessary for him to call for
troops, and second. the hopeful view
Of the situation taken by President
Samuel Gompers of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. President Gompers
said:
Il certainly shall do all in my power
to end the strike, and I have great
hopes Of success"
President Gompers arrived in this
city at night. Immediately after leav-
ing his train President Gompers went
into conference with President Shea
and local officials of the teamsters,
union. This conference lasted until a
late hour at night.
After leaving the meeting Of the Ia
Dor leaders, President Gompers met q
number of the teamQwners who have
stood by the unions for the great part
Of the strike. They informed him that
the time had come when they could
no longer refuse to deliver and take
goods from the boycotted houses with
out facing financial ruin.
It is said on good authority that Mr..
Gompers will suggest to the teamsters
that they allow the teamowners to do
business with the boycotted houses.
It is expected that the teamsters will
accept this proposition, and in this
manner the strike will be called of.

years. In 1895 the combined capital
and surplus of the banks was SO, 1884,

KEAN'S RESOLUTION
Senate Committee Investigation May
Result in Extra Session

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-The resolu-
tion to be introduced in the senate by
Mr.. Kean of New Jersey, providing
that the committee on interstate COM
merce shall sit during the summer for
the investigation of the subject of rail-
road rate legislation, will not be Of
fered until it has first been approved
by the committee.
The plan to have the senate commit
tee investigate thoroughly the subject
Of rate legislation has been approved
by large number of senators of both
parties 1t is said that the committee
will work along the lines of perfect
ing the Esch-Townsend bill and incor-
porating in that measure a provision
to reach private car lines.
The idea is that if the committee is
ready to report in October or by the
1st of November notice will be sent
to the president, and If he is so in
clined an extra session may be called.

DoINGS IN THE SENATE
Christian Endeavor Societies Present
Immense Petition
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON Feb. 9.-Senator
Lodge today presented a petition from
1642 Christian Endeavor societies, rep
resenting all the states and territories
of the union, asking that the president
be authorized to invite the governments
of the world to appoint delegates to an
international congress to meet at stated
intervals to deliberate upon questions
of common interest to the nations in
terested.
Senator Hale from the committee on
appropriations presented the report OF
that committee on the diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill and gave
notice that he would ask It's early con-
sideration.
Senator Warren from the committee
on military affairs reported the mill
tary appropriation bill.
The senate then devoted the day to
debate on the agricultural appropria-
tion bill, There was a renewal of the
discussion of the policy of distributing
the appropriation bills among a num-
ber of committees. Senator's German
and Spooner contended that the change
had resulted In vast increase of the
cost of conducting the government.
Senator Hale agreed that in recent
years there had been a great increase
in the appropriations but he attributed
1t to what he called the war craze"

territories committee without any ac-
tion by the house itself. He did this
under the house rules, on the ground
that the senate had inserted in 1t an
amendment calling for an appropria-
tion of money. At the same time the
speaker had put in circulation a call
for a caucus of house Republicans to
be held tomorrow afternoon for the
purpose of considering what course the
house should pursue with regard to the
bill.
AS the speaker and others of the
house leaders are opposed to the bill
as it passed the senate, their willing
ness to have a caucus on it's disposi-
tion indicates pretty strongly that they
are confident they have majority Of
! the house Republicans with them.
If tomorrow's caucus proves this to
be the case it seems certain the bill
will never get to the president in its
present shape. 1t will either be re-
stored to the form in which it passed
the house last session, making one
state of Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tory and another of New Mexico and
Arizona, or it will fail altogether. The
latter is generally regarded here as the
probable outcome. This is true be-
cause of the complications that are
bound to arise in trying to get out of
the bill the Kearns provision annexing
part of Arizona to Utah, which it is
agreed all around must come out.
The members of the house who are
most anxious for the passage of the
bill practically as 1t came from the
senate will not hear to the acceptance
of the Kearns amendment. They would
not dare return to face their constitu-
ents If they had been in any way re-
sponsible for legislation increasing the
area of the state Of Utah. 1t is practi-
cally assured, therefore, that the por-
tion of Arizona alienated by the Curl
GUS mix-up In the senate Saturday
night will be restored to the territory.

of the chamber indorsing his attitude
on the freight rate question. They
pointed out to the president that, al
though Spokane is 300 miles east of
Seattle, the shippers of Spokane were
forced to pay on freight from the east
the full rates to Seattle and the local
rates from Seattle back to Spokane,
although the goods are unloaded at
Spokane directly from the east.
Senator Kean of New Jersey also
talked briefly with the president. He
is of the opinion that his resolution
will command majority vote in the
