INJURED RECOVERING.
New York Filler Hits Long Branch
Express-Engineer Jumped.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1.-Kunnlng
at great speed past a signal set against
1t and a flagman who was wildly a
ing a warning to the engineer, a New
York expires train bound for Philade'-
Dhia on the New York division of the
Pennsylvania railroad crashed into q
stalled Long Branch express at La-
dington, nineteen miles north of this
city, with the result that three persons
are dead and forty injured, several o.
whom are believed to be fatally hurt.
That more persons were not killed
is considered remarkable, as three OF
the cars of the Long Branch train were
completely telescoped by the terrific
impact Of the heavy New York eL-
press.
The dead are Mrs. w. H.. Connell of
Trenton, N. j., Mary Cronin of Phila-
delphia and Mary O'Malley of Rah-
way, N. ].
The New York express was nine
minutes behind time and was running
ut high speed in order to make 1t up.
The Long Branch express was COM
PEELED to stop ut Eddington because of
a faulty air brake, and while the train
men were trying to find the cause of
the trouble the rear brakeman went
back 175 yards to flag approaching
trains. He stood about halfway be-
tween the real of his train and the
automatic signal which, it Is said, was
set against other trains.
Van Arsdale, engineer of the New
York express, who jumped and was
not hurt, said he saw the red signal as
well as the 1agman, but was unable to
bring his train to a ~standstill, although
he had experienced no trouble what
ever in stopping at Trenton, which was
the last stop he had made. Rounding
the curve nea Eddington he WIS hor-
rified to see the danger was SO close
ahead, and as every effort to halt his
train was without avaiTsHf -eonld do
nothing to preye.s.t the disaster. y

Tnc Rain In the woods.

The lamentable effects of the gener-
al destruction of forests are now suf-
ficiently recognized in all civilized
countries. Such destruction invites
devastating floods in mountain streams
and causes the surrounding land to
dry up. Forests act like vast con-
densing screens. They preserve a
moist atmosphere about them, atten-
uate the force of torrential downfalls,
promote a more gradual melting of the
snow in early spring and protect the
soil against too rapid evaporation.
And yet the manner in which forests
act their beneficent part is not exactly
such as might be supposed. They pre-
vent large part of the rain that falls
from reaching the soil at ALL 1t is es-
timated that in European climates the
forests eyaporate directly or transpire
physiologically four-fifths of the rain
that falls upon them Thus the forest
atmosphere is no less Important than
the forest soil in equalizing the eli
matte conditions of a country. Youths

Wireless Telephone Experiments suc1
ceed In Germany.
Berlin, Dec. 15.-The German Society
of Wireless Telegraphy has succeeded
in holding wireless telegraphic commu-
nication between Berlin and Nauen,
fsenty -four miles away.
Professor Slaby in an interview de-
seribed the experiment as eminently
successful The conversation was car
ried on partly by Herr Won Sydow, un-
dersecretary Of the state postal de-
partment, who received perfectly in
telligible repetitions to his questions.
Professor Slaby says the problem of
wireless telephony is solved, but that
the limit of distance is not yet known.
He sees no reason to set any limit and
believes that the time is coming when
a man will be able to speak wirelessly
with friend in any part of the world
The method employed consists of the
use of the microphone in connection
with the ordinary wireless telegraphy
apparatus.

time has come, in all fairness they
should be heard from an organization
standpoint The principal objects for
which this County Committee was organ
lied can be found in the preamble of
the Constitution of 30, as follows:
.'The Hudson County Republican Com
mittee shall be the central organization
of the Republican party of the County
and shall have the care and interest, and
be charged with a demonstration of the
Republican party in the County, with full
authority to direct and enforee the de-
ward, town. township or borough COM
mittee on organization in the County,
with supervisory governing power reserv-
ed to said County Committee.
THE Constitution also provides for the
basis of representation in this Commit
tee and the manner in which members
shall be elected and hold office. 1t pro-
vides for the selection of officers and de-
fines the duties of said officers It desig-
mates the various Committees that shall
be known as standing committees, to be
selected and named py the president OF
this Committee. It defines the duties of
said Committee. 1t prescribes and de-
fines what action shall be taken where
complaints or contests have been made in
any part of the County. 1t designates
and apportions the number of candidates
to the various conventions and where
conventions shall be held, etc.
But Notwithstanding these conditions,
for some months past efforts have been
made, both through the public press and
from platforms and from cart tails by
certain persons, who for the purpose of
securing the control of the organization
of the party have in every way possible
attempted to bring reproach upon the Of
fetal management, impudently arrogating
to themselves the sole ownership and
authorship of issues which have for years
been vital issues of the Republican par
parties through movement that was
organized in the early summer, obtained
an expression of opinion from the voters,
not only in Hudson County, but through
out the State, at the party primaries and
at that time the voice of the party
was in favor of the party organization
But not being content with this decision
these people have still continued their
agitation.
Resolved, That we extend to the rank
and file of the retiring members of this
Committee who have followed these ring
leaders, our sincere regret for the present
situation, recognizing as we do, the value
of their services to the party previous to
the recent revolt, and trust that in the
near future they may realize their mis-
take. The party does not want to feel
that their services are irrevocably lost
and this Committee does not want them
to feel that their help is no longer de-
sired"
