Salisbury, England, July 2.-This
beautiful Cathedral City is the scene
of the most appalling railroad disaster
known in this country in the last thirty
years. The victims are all Americans.
Landed Passengers the Victims.
Twenty-three of the ~forty-seven pas.
sengers who had landed at Plymouth
from the steamship New York, late
Saturday night, were instantly killed
here early yesterday morning, as the
flying express train, which was rushing
from that town to London, was demol.
ished in the collision. Five others were
almost killed and t~wenty-four injured
seriously.
Young bridegroom Decapitated.
There were some shocking incidents.
A New York millionaire and bride
groom, Frederick Cossitt, who was sit
ting beside his bride, was decapitated.
The bride was the daughter of Judge
Durgo of New York.
England's Finest Train.
The train was the finest in England.
1t was most luxuriously equipped and
runs sixty miles an hour. There was
a curve near here and the train usu-
ally slackens on turning. This train did
not. 1t jumped the track and plowed
its way over the roadbed into a great
freight train. The mix-up was awful.
All the Trainmen Killed.
The list of killed will total twenty
eight. In one compartment only one
person escaped. All the trainmen were
killed. The slaughter will o the
railway $4,000, 900 damages, because
English courts compute their earning
capacity as the value of male lives
destroyed.

HAD HIS INVENTION STOLEN.
How the Designer of the Hanson
Cab Lost a Fortune.

Sdp IOSA d Nulcs
Charles Hanson, the famous Eng.
lish architect, was a talented nan in
many respects other than in the exer
else of his professions, says Dono,
nue's. He was dining IN a certain day
with a few friends when one of them
tainted him with being unable to in
ven a vehicle which would ~supersede
the old-fashioned hacks and cabs in
universal use in London. Mr.. Han.
som got a sheet of paper, and without
delay sketched out his idea of a safe
and convenient mode of passing
through the crowded streets of the
great metropolis. His friends watched
him while he was at work and unan-
imously applauded the sketch which
he had drawn. They dubbed 1t by the
name of its inventor, and it was then
and there called a Hanson car" One
of those present advised him to take
out a patent for it, which he said he
would do on the morrow. However,
there was one dishonest man in the
company, by whom he was forstalled
for on reaching his own house that
evening and being like Mr.. Hanson, a
clever craftsman. as all great archi'
tects are, he sketched out a car like
the drawing he had seen, and early
the following morning he took it to
the Office and got out a patent for it
in his w name, thus robbing the tai
ented inventor of all the remunera'
ton which he deserved to reap from
1t. 1t brought an immense but i'll
gotten fortune to the one who had per-
petrated the fraud, whereas Mr., Han
som was never one penny the richer.

FOR HEARST.

A special from Washington to the
Birmingham Age-Herald says:
The proportions assumed by the
Bryan presidential boom in Washing
ton to-day is little less than amazing
Hardly a democratic member can
be found who is not for the nomina-
ton of the Nebraskan in 1908. a
bare half dozen or so are for VIII
liam Randolph Hearst, but at this
date, two years ahead of the national
convention, Bryan is practically with
out opposition and being termed a
harmOnizer upon whom all factions
can unite
The formidability of Hearst, Of
course, depends entirely upon the re-
suit Of the New York fight this year
If he is beaten he will be politically
dead. Should he win he will proba-
bly, have about the same proportion
of strength possessed by him at the
last convention. There is no ground
for the belief that his candidacy will
ever attain more than healthy lungs
can give it. If the convention were
held tomorrow Bryan would I'M
dOubtedly be nominated. In the
meantime the convention is two
years OF. and many things can hap
pen in that time.

Der OF physicians who have reached
this eminence is considerable. The
hablt is said to have begun in Lon
don, where a famous specialist used
to place a pile of guineas on his
desk in order to show his patients
what was expected of them.
For other kinds of practice doc
tors are now seeking to introduce
the system of monthly payments.
However long a patient may be i'll or
however rich he may be, the doctors,
when they are well enough known,
have established a rule that they

POLITICAL CONTESTS
IN THE EMPIRE STATE

Sheehan, who now is the law partner
presidential nominee, has brought for
ward Francis Burton Harrison as his
candidate for state chairman, and
this clique desires to name d. Cady
HerTick again for the gOveTnOTship.
The third combination in the field
is under the management of Maurice
NJ Minton, who conducted the pre-
liminary canvass Of Judge Parker
far the presidential nomination in
1904. Because Of the fact that Mr..
Minton at that time worked in con-
junction with August Belmont the
general impression has gone forth
that Mr. Belmont is back of Minton
at this time. although this has been
denied by the latter. Minton has
gathered together many members of
the state Committee ana several
County Chairmen who are bitterly
opposed to Sheehan and who will
fight to the end to prevent him from
dominating the state situation.
These men are agreed that an up
state man be made chairman Of the
state Committee, and, on a count of
noses, they appear to have the better
Of the Sheehan forces.
It was the plan of the Sheehah
people 70 have Cord Meyer, the
present Chairman of the State Com
mittee ana one Of their allies, call
a meeting Of the committee by the
middle Of May so that Mr.. Harrison
could be named chairman. They soon
found, however, that they could not
control this committee and no call
for the meeting has been issued as
yet
Now the antiSheehan men in the
committee have started to force the
figh%ing ana they are demanding that
the meeting be called so that they
can effect the reorganization. They
want a meeting before the first of
July.
