Horrible Railroad Collision.

Harrisburg, Pa, May IL. Train
No. 10, known a. the Eastern Tx
press of the Pennsylvania railroad,
going east ran into a freight train at
l2:l0 this morning south of Harris
burg. Two cars of freight were load
ed with dynamite and terrific explo-
sion followed
Both trains were piled in a mass of
wreckage. which Immediately took
fire and many small explosions fol
lowed.
1t is estimated that fifty are dead
and one hundred wounded.
Definite figures can not be had at
this hour, as the blazing mass is un-
approachable and many people are
pinned in the debris.
Immediately after the wreck all
passengers who could do SO ran from
the scene of horror to safety, from
the incessant small explosions.
\ special train was made up and
the injured and dying were brought
To the Union station.
The agonizing' cries of the unfor-
tunates were heartrending. The Of
fcers of the Paxtang Light, Heat and
Power company looked like a hospi-
tai.
With practically no clothing many
women and children from the train
were compelled to wander about the
fields as there were few houses in the
immediate vicinity of the wreck.
One hundred and sixty-nine pas
sengers were in the train and the la
test estimate is fifty killed.

honored by his political foes. but per-
sonal friends President Roosevelt was
last night chief guest at magnif
cent banquet, rendered him by the
lroquois club, the leading Democrat
ic organization of Illinois.
The banquet, which from first to
last was an ovation. was given entire
ly by Democrats to the leader of their
political opponents, and many kindly
personal references were made by the
speakers of the evening, among
whom were j Hamilton Lewis, j.
w. Dickinson and Gov Deneen.
The opening portion of the Presi-
dents speech was a discussion of the
fact that under existing circumstan-
ces our country can be governed only
under the party system. He said that
the longer he is in political life the
more firmly he is convinced that the
great bulk of the most important
questions which we can best decide
not from a standpoint of Republican
ism or Democracy, but from a stand
point of the interests of the average
American citizen. whether Republi-
can or Democrat. He urged non
partisanshIp in matters of great pub
lie importance. and cited instances
where this policy had been success
fully carried out.
Among the most vital questions
that have come up for solution be
cause of extraordinary industrial de-
velopment of this country, a. of all
the modern world. he said. 'are
questions of capital aud labor, and
