SPECIAL DISPATCH TO. THE CALL.
NEW YORK. July 4.-Forty thousand
persons waited impatiently three hours
this afternoon to see two steam en-
ming at about forty miles an hour on
the Brighton Beach track. The engines
were smashed into a mass of twisted
iron, and thousands of persons Joined
in rush, at times amounting almost
to panic, through water and mire to
get pieces OF the wreckage as souv-
enirs.
Through the center OF the race track.
across bog and mire, a railroad track
nearly half mile in length was built
The two engines were of eighty tons
each. but of an old type In their new
paint they looked fit to draw a modern
express as they puffed and painted back
during the afternoon. TO keep up In
terest. They were built for a New
Jersey railway and for several years
had been used in the freight yards
With the tracks thickly sanded so
that the wheels would not slip. the en-
gines were started from either end of
the railroad. Roy Matthews and Ed
ward X. Dwitter. who have been in two
similar collisions in the West. were the
and whistles. they started the engines
and, after they had gone fifty feet to-
gether with the fremen they jumped
from their cabs. They landed in the
mud and were unhurt-
Gaining speed at every second. the
engines leaped toward each other and
the great crowd arose to its feet. There
was a roar when the engines met; each
reared half its length in the air and
there was a shower Of sparks, followed
by a rush OF steam that in a second
enveloped the wreck
Almost before the engines had turned
over In ruins came the rush of men and
women from the race track and grand
stands TO the scene of the wreck. The
engines have been transformed into
scrap iron and will be blown to pieces
with dynamite.

OYSTER BAY, July 4.-President
Roosevelt was pleased to justify his
stewardship in a review of the year for
the benefit of his neighbors today. He
spoke in the open air and nearly all Of
his important utterances were delivered
during heavy downpour of rain.
When he had finished both himself and
his thousand or more auditors were
drenched None deserted the celebra-
ton. The rain came suddenly and
there was no shelter in sight. When
the President paused while umbrellas
were raised he remarked good -natured-
w: at am sorry for you. ladies, but
ashamed of you mel because you are
afraid you will melt.
There was no DOUBT that the Pres
ident enjoyed the downpour. When the
first shower came he allowed himself
to be covered with a rubber cape. but
Just as he had thrown 1t off II poured
again, and this time lie took the wet
ting.
To emphasize that his acts as Pres
ident had been free from malice he
begged pardon of the dominies and
took text illustrating his point
from Lincoln. The sentiment of this
text ran through the entire speech. and
The San Francisco call., 1906-07-05

when he said he would curb the
trusts" he emphasized that in doing his
duty he would act without favor or
malice. He spoke for nearly an hour.
He was cheered on by the waving of
wet flags and cries of approval.
Oyster Bay made its graceful holiday
bow to the President and combined its
welcome home for the summer by a
celebration of the Fourth. No incident
marred the festivities which, were held
in Locust Grove. a natural amphitheater
in the outskirts ofs the village. Mrs.
Roosevelt and the children were pres
ent at the ceremonies Mr.. Roosevelt
spoke in part as follows:
Mr.. Chairman and you. my old
friends and neighbors, you with whom
1 was brought up and with whom /
have lived for so many years. 1t is a

chance of being with you today to say

EXPLOSION SHAKES TOWN
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.


wILKESBARRE. Pa. July five
boys were killed and two fatally
injured at Wanamie. mining town
near here, this evening. by an explo-
sion of dynamite and giant powder
with which they were loading a four
kpch pipe which they had converted into
a cannon.
Long. aged 16; John Salsinsky. aged
13. and John and Thomas Rachulie,
aged 13 and 16.
The injured: Alexander and Frank
Shukowiz, both badly hurt and are not
expected to recover.
The boys obtained quantity of giant
powder and dynamite from the mines
and had been shooting off their improy-
ised cannon during the afternoon This
evening they resolved to give a final
discharge which would eclipse any ex-
plosion the town had heard during the
day. They filled the pipe with the dyna-
mite and the powder and were ram
ming 1t home with some stones as they
knew charges should be tamped. In
their zeal they struck the tamping too
hard a blow and the-explosion occurred
The force was so great that the town
was shaken. Three of the boys were
killed outright. while two others died
in a few minutes and the two who are
injured are not expected to live long.
The iron pipe was blown into frag-
ments, which pierced the bodies of the
victims, tore off arms and legs or
crushed skulls
The residents of the town. startled by
the explosion, rushed to the scene and
found the seven lying torn, black and
bleeding, while not vestige remained
of the pipe.
How much powder and dynamite they
had used 1t is impossible to say. but
from the dreadful havoc caused it must
have been q large quantity.

PITTSBURG, July Although this
was holiday. it was not so for the
District Attorney OF Allegheny County
the Hartje divorce case. Major Robert
L. Stewart. the District Attorney, is
busy preparing for conspiracy accusa-
tions against certain persons connected
with the divorce proceedings.
Never since the trial of Jimmy
Mutt for the killing o. Lyman Dukes,
who had slain Nuts father when the
latter resented Dukes traducing his
daughter. has Western Pennsylvania
been so worked up over a trial. and
in this trial. as in that. the honor of
a woman is at stake.
The horrible charges filed by Hartje
against his wife were a shock to the
people. When 1t was realized the man
had brought a negro into his case
as correspondent. although declaring he
had plenty of other evidence and did
not need that. the Indignation against
him grew. When the negro finally
confessed he had perJured himself on
the promise of reward of $4,000, the
district Attorney of this county took
a hand in the case. and he has been
at work on ii since.
