SPEED CAUSE OF DISASTER.
Inspectors Report on Railroad Wrecl
''' # Salisbury England. 80;

Lsondop, Sept. 2s.-Excessive speed,
causing his engine to oyerturp. has
been decided by the board Of trade IL:
spectors to have been the cause Of the
Salisbury railway disaster July /, in
which upward of score of Amer
leans on their way from Plymouth to
London lost their lives.
IN tho report issued Friday Maj.
Prtngls. Representative of the board
Of trade. who had charge ef the in.
YestigstioA, says that all the evil.
dspce points to the fact that the
speed was at least twice az great as
that authorized by the company, and
possibly as much as 70 miles an hour.
He believes that had the limit of 80
miles through the station not been
exceeded the disaster would not have
occurred. The report censures the
guard of the train, Harrison, for not
applying the continuous brake, which
would have greatly reduced the speed
and possibly prevented the accident.
Maj. Pringle found no evidence in
support Of the allegation that Amer.
leans or others were in the habit OF
Tipping spgin'eers Of steamboat ex'
presses to encourage them to run
trains at excessive speed, ; ~

What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge SO
often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls every wish in curing rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
1t corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne-
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
