WRECK ON TEST TRIP.
Emergency Brake Fails on Orange
Mountain

The new line Of the Orange Mountain
Traction Company, running from Valley
road up the Orange mountain, on one of
the steepest points of the mountain, was
put to a test yesterday morning at West
Orange. N. j., and the first car ran away,
resulting in the death Of one man, the
probably fatal injury Of another and slight
injuries to eleven more. Only one man
stayed on the car in its mad descent Of
the mountain, and he escaped with the
loss Of two of his teeth.
The line is not yet open to the public,
and at best would not have been for a
week at least, as 1t was proposed to test
the cars and safety appliances. and ne
gotiations were under way to pass the con-
troll Of the road to Edward w. Curtis, who
is interested in developing Orange noun
tain real estate. Frank Brewer, president
of the Orange Mountain Traction Company,
said that the lease was to have been ne
gotiated today.
The list of casualties follows:
The dead-Patrick Burns, No. lis Bergen

PANAMA ELECTION RIOTS.
Disorder in Two Principal Cities on
the Isthmus.

The elections in Panama yesterday were
orderly. with the exception of a few fights
which were without serious results until
late in the afternoon. when a clash took
place between liberals and policemen who
were protecting ballot boxes at Santa Ana
Park Nine policemen and Jose Antio Pa
redas were badly wounded. and one liberal
was killed. Fifty armed policemea restored
order. Governor Magoon and Capt. George
R. Stanton. chief of police In the canal
zone. were prominent at all places during
the day. and their presence undoubtedly
prevented much trouble.
The constitutional party was victorious in
Panama City and the provinces Of Cocle,
Veragua and Chirioui.
The municipal elections In Colon passed
off without serious developments. Early III
the morning clubs were freely used by both
the political factions. and several persons
received broken heads. The police, how
ever, quieted the disorderly elements. -
No disturbances have been reported at
other places in the republic

MRS. KAUFMAN GETS BAIL.
Strange Motive Ascribed for Alleged
Murder of Her Servant

~ AASA
duly executed bond for S25 900 for the
release of Mrs. Emma Kaufman was filed
at Sioux Falls, s. D.. Saturday.
The bond is signed by twenty of the most
prominent persons of Sioux Falls Sew
eral times the number who attached their
signatures could have been secured had it
been necessary.
Strange and weird as the charge Of caus-
ing the death Of Miss Agnes Polreis, her
servant. by cruel treatment is, the motive
ascribed for 1t by former girls who have
been employed by the Kauffmanns is stran-
ger. 1t Is that Mrs. Kaufman has been at
war with Providence since the death Of
her only daughter ten years ago; that the
sight Of youthful health and comeliness
after brooding spell before the Hfe-sized
portrait of the dead daughter, makes her
a vertable maniac. She is said to be a
woman of violent temper always, but on
these occasions, 1t is asserted by former
servants, she is almost demoniacal
Servants have fed from her wrath from
garnet to cellar, and have been frightened
by her appearance in their rooms in the
middle of the night, her features working
IN hideous fashion as she glared at them.
They were forbidden to lock their doors.
They finally fed from the house.

FEARS SUPPOSED PLOT.
Venezuela's Suspicious Prevent Join
ing Pan-American Congress.


Advices from Caracas say that Venezuela
will not be represented at the pan-American
congress at Rio The reason given semi-of-
ficially Is that Gen. Cipriano Castro. whose
resignation from the presidency has not
been accepted and who will return to Of
fee on July 8. fears that the United States
seeks to use the congress for the purpose of
obtaining control over the South American
republics.
One of the Castro newspapers says:
Venezuela will not take part in the pam
American congress at Rio because there
is no disposition on her part to serve as
the instrument Of the United States in the
latter's sinister designs against the weak
republics of South America"
The present attitude Of the Venezuelan
government toward the pan-American con-
gress recalls the action Of President Castro
when the congress convened at Mexico City
a few years ago. 1t was at the time that
Colombia and Venezuela were involved in
controversies which threatened to precipi-
tate a war between the two countries Gen
Rafael Reyes. now president Of Colombia,
was one of the delegates from his country
to Mexico City. and Venezuela was also
represented.
The congress cabled to President Castro
the suggestion that these differences be
submitted to arbitration. Castro, whose
aversion to arbitration Is well known, be-
came vexed at the suggestion. and replied
by cable in a manner that was neither po-
lite nor Diplomatic. His answer TO the pan
American congress was please don't me d.
die in our affairs" He also Withdrew Ven
ezuela's delegate from the congress.
This action by Castro caused Dr. Eduardo
Blanco. minister of foreign affairs, to re-
sign his office.
1t is said that Venezuela's real reason for
not taking part at Rio is Cast-o's failure
to have gratif1ed his desire that the con-
gress meet this year at Caracas. lie had
this desire expressed by the Venezuelan
charge daffaires at Washington, and not
until Brazil was decided upon as the meet
ing place did Venezuela refuse to send dele
gates.

Federal Control of Coal.

A Philadelphia special to the New York
Times says:
1T is said on the authority Of one who
has been closely connected with the inves-
tigation Of the coal-carrying roads by the
Interstate commerce commission that the
commission in its report will advocate gov
eminent ownership of the anthracite coal
fields. This. it is declared. will be urged
as the only means Of protecting the public
from extortion.
THE report will directly charge five rail-
roads with violations of various antitrust
and interstate laws. 1t will advocate fur
Their legislation which will completely d.
vorce railroads from any connection with
the bituminous coal industry or any other
industry along their lines.
