SERIOUS WRECK
Engine and Tender of
Train on B. & O. De-
rallied at a Switch.

Traffic 10 and from the West over the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was com
pletely tied up COR several hours today
by the derailment OF the fast Cleveland
exp. ass shortly before O'Clock this
morning al First and X streets north
east.
The wreck occurred Just before the
tracks of the Metropolitan branch swing
into the Y at I street. Al this point
there is an automatic switch and the
failure Of this switch to work properly
derailed both the engine and tender.
The United States mail car. which was
directly behind the tender. did not leave
the tracks
Owing to the fact that considerable
trouble has been experienced at this
point all incoming trains proceed around
the turn at a slow rate OF speed Il
was because Of this that the engine did
not topple completely over.
As soon as the engine left the rails
Engineer Graham reversed the throttle
and set the brakes. Despite the fact
that both the engine and tender threat
ened to turn turtle. Graham and the
fireman, w. r. Barnes. stuck TO their
posts until the train had been brought
to a full stop.
For a distance of seventy-five feet the
ties and rails were ripped up, the out
bound track being torn up as much as
the incoming. Aside from severe shak-
ing up none Of the passengers were in
jured.
A call was sent in for wrecking
train, and after half an hour a hand
derrick arrived. This was sufficient TO
raise the engine, but he tracks about

an extent that it WIS impossible TO

OYSTER BAY, Sept. 24.-President
Roosevelt is determined that the
uniform Of the United States should
be respected. no matter whether it
is worn by an admiral. a general,
or an enlisted man.
just TO prove that he is in dead
earnest over The matter, he has
sent his check for s1OO to Admiral
Thomas at Narragansett Pier to be
used in prosecuting the dance hall
proprietor who refused admission
to a JaclSy because of his navy blue,
With the check President Roosevelt
sent the following letter to Admiral
Thomas. who Is superintendent OF the
naval training service.
II enclose 800 to be used In that suit
which, thanks 20 you, has been so wise
" undertaken. TO test the legality OF
eAcIucns any man from any public
place CT entertainment because he wears
the United states uniform. l feel that
ii Is the duty of every good citizen TO
endeaVor In every shape and way TO
make II plain that he regards the uni
form of the United States Army and
Navy just as much when worn by an
enlisted man as when worn by an off,
Ger. as a badge Of honor and therefore
as emitting the wearer to honor as long
as he behaves decently, There is no
finer body OF men IN all our country
than the enlisted men Of the army ana
navy OF the United States and I can-
not sufficiently express my Indignation
and contempt for any man who treats
their uniform save with respect to
which he is entitled. If a man misbe-
haves himself then no matter what uni
form he wears he should be dealt with
accordingly, but the fact of wearing
the United States uniform should be
accented as presumptive evidence that
fha man who wears IL Is all right and
any discrimination against the uniform
as such is more than pre- sumptive evil
dence that the man thus discriminating

ATLANTA. Ga. Sept. 24-With
1000 militiamen and a field battery
in reserve occupying Atlanta, the
city is much quieter today. II is by
no means certain that the rioting
growing out of the race war is over,
but it is not likely there viii be a
renewal of the outbreaks before
night at least
Governor Terrell has declined TO
declare martial law for the present.
He has promised citizens. however.
that if there is a renewal of fight
ing he win take this step and see
that it is strictly enforced.
The last outbreak occurred early
this morning. when Zeb Long, a
negro, was lynched at East Point.
a suburb five miles out. Long had
been parading the streets, a rife on
his shoulder. and threatening to
shoot any white man who ap-
preached him. He pointed his gun
ut "Tron" Harris. a night marshal,
who tried to arrest him. Eventu-
ally he was landed in the Jail, which
was stormed at o'clock. Long was
taken out and hanged to a telephone
pole and his body riddled with bull
let's
other riotous incidents which marked
the earlier hours of the night were at
tacl,s on Henry Thrasher, a negro
from Lithonia. and an unknown
man was assaulted in front of the
Marion hotel The latter dashed into
the hotel for safety. The mob pursued
and fired several shots.
All the street cars today carry double
crews, and on the front of each car is "a
uniformed armed soldier. The street car
conductors and motormen are all heavily
armed. The hardware stores in the city
were open yesterday and last night
under military guard to furnish arms
and ammunition to the street car en-
ployes and special officers. II IS re-
ported that the entire supply Of guns
and ammunition of one Of the leading
hardware stores in the city was ex-
hausted yesterday.
One struck the negro before he went
down. He quickly Fegained his feet,
however, continued his dash through
the hotel, jumped out OF a dining room
window, and disappeared.
Thrasher was attacked while walk
ing through Mcdaniel street Ne was
shot, but not fatally Injured.
Whites did not do all the attack
ing A gang Of negroes fired on a
street car on Magnolia street in charge
Of MOtOrman Hester and Conductor
Donaldson. Two white men we're occu-
DaDts Of the car at the time. At the
frst shots Hester was struck in the
BODY. Donaldson sprang to his place,
turned on full speed, and ran away
from the negroes, who sent volley after

There were several minor outbreaks
Yesterday and last night Just before
noon yesterday a mob OF 1000 people
held up the street cars on lower Peach
tree street, in the hotel district. and
made a rush for two negro passengers.
The negroes jumped from the cars and
fed toward the rear OF the Piedmont
Hotel with the yelling crowd in pursuit
At the hotel the militia succeeded In
getting the crowd checked, and the ne
sroes made their escape. No negroes
were on the streets last night.

II was rumored in the county today
that efforts would be made to get TIE
prisoner TO the jail with as much Sc
crecy as possible. The authorities viii
probably take him 10 Fort Myer under
cover OF darkness. County officials
have taken exception TO the statement
that mob violence might be resorted
to by the citizens. However, every pre-
caution is being taken and the authori-
ties have taken three suspects 10 the
Jail under cover OF night presumably
to avoid any possible outbreak
Mr.. Mackey said he anticipated no
trouble in landing the prisoner in Jail
and protecting him until he is given a
trial. The Commonwealth attorney,
however, realizes that tire inhabitants
of the county have been stirred up as
seldom before over the assault upon
Gooding and Miss RiEley.

inc Moses, the strong man. the

Gus action, coming down the
mountain side, all unconscious
that his face was shining with
the glory of the heights, being
met in the foothills by Aaron
and the committee of fifty, and
Aaron saying, "Well Moses my
brother, what did you get." Mos'
ses would show the tablets and
say, There Aaron, there is what
I got. Read it my brother, read
it nv people," And Aaron, the
talking man, the smooth man, the
succe ssful mau, the politician,
would read it with the com nit
tee and say, "Ah we'll, Moses,
you are great man but you are
a ahead of your time. You are
good but impracticable. This
code would be all right for the
