Broome County Centennial.

Rain badly interfered with what
would have been the greatest par
ade in the history of Binghamton on
Thursday. This was to be the principal
feature Of the Broome county centen-
nial and carnival. AS it was it was one
of the best parades ever formed there,
although the line of march was great
ly curtailed. The grand display of
fireworks that was to have been given
was postponed until Saturday night.
One of the largest crowds ever in the
city assembled in spite of the rain,
all incoming trains on all roads were
crowded. The centennial except for
the postponed fireworks closed with
the Mardi Gras parade and the carni-
val ball Thursday evening.

FOUR DEAD IN COLLISION.
Express and Baggage Car Telescoped
Into the Smoker.

Minneapolis, Sept. 25 - Four are
dead and Is or more are injured as y
result of a rear-end collision Of pas
senger ttrain and a switch engine in

Green, residence unknown, reported
dying; Thomas Mcdonald, Minneapo-
lis. engineer on switch engine, hurt in
ternally and cut on head c. L..
Klaine, Minneapolis, lineman, hurt in

the time of the passenger train, which
was about 10 minutes late.
Both engineers jumped when they
saw that the crash was inevitable.
One engineer escaped and the other
broke his collar bone.
All the express and mail messengers
escaped unhurt. Apparently the pas

only ones hurt. The express and bag

DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION
Lewis Nixon, Former Leader Of Tam
many Hall, Temporary Chairman.

Lewis Nixon, Former Leader of Tam
many Hall, Temporary Chairman.
Buffalo, Sept 25-Lewis Nixon OF
New York city, former leader OF
Tammany Hall, was last night chosen
as temporary chairman of the Demo
cratic state convention, the first ses-
sion of which will be called to order
here at noon today. Mr. Nixon was
chosen without opposition at a meet
ing of the Democratic state commit
tee. He is a delegate to the conven
tion from the district of Charles F.
Murphy, the present leader of the
Tammany Hall organization.
Mr.. Nixon was agreed upon as tenn
porary chairman at conference held
late yesterday at which were present
representatives of most of the warning
factions In the state Democracy, and
his selection by the state committee
was in the nature of a ratification OF
the conference decision.
The naming of Mr.. Nixon as tenn
porary chairman is regarded as clari-
Ning the situation to some extent,
though none Of the factions will admit
that his selection means even ten.
porary setback to their cause. The
former Tammany leader is claimed by
the advocates of William Randolph
Hearst to be friendly to their candi-
date for the governorship.
The temporary chairman, has, how
ever. made no public declaration of
his position In his speech to the con
vention he undoubtedly will make a
plea for harmony and there were evil
dences that every effort is to be made
to have harmony and there is spirit
of give and take in the air. How far
some of the more radical elements
will go in this direction remains to be
seen.

RAILROAD DEFIES SPEED LAW.
Pennsylvania viii Fight Town ordl
nances That Hold Up Fast Trains.

Pittsburg, Sept 22.-The Pennsyl
vania railroad announced that 1t would
contest the power of the borough OF
Williamsburg, as well as all other Dor
oughs that are insisting on speed
limits.
Engineer William r. Jones, who
pulls the Pennsylvania mail between
here and Altoona, had been fined for
fast running, but yesterday he tore
his train through Williamsburg faster
than ever, whistling defiantly at the
village fathers.
The railroad people have taken an
appeal in his case and will make
test. Superintendent Long of the
Pittsburg division says no attention
will be paid to Williamsburg, and that
II every petty borough official were lis
tened to all the roads of the country
would be tied up.

Twenty-four hours have passed
since race war of no mean proper
tions began In Atlanta. In that per-
iod at least 10 lives were sacrificed.
The number of injured will be just 40,
several of whom cannot recover.
This condition came as the result OF
numerous and repeated assaults or at
tempted assaults upon white women
by negroes. A list of an even dozen
such assaults, within the limits OF
Fulton county, within the last nine
weeks came Saturday when four at
tempts at assault were reported.
About 10 o'clock negro man showed
white woman from the sidewalk on
Whitehall street, in the center Of
town. Almost simultaneously a negro
woman made an insulting remark to a
white man on an adjoining street and
ne administered what he considered
due punishment
From this start the mob began its
work Of destruction. Five thousand
men and boys thronged the downtown
streets looking for negroes. News
that riot had started brought thous-
ands more from their homes in the
suburbs and residence districts, until
fully 10000 men thronged the down.
town sections.
The trolleys were pulled from the
wires and in the semi-darkness of the
unllghted cars negroes were beaten,
cut and stamped upon in an unreason-
Ing, mad frenzy. If negro ventured
resistance or demonstrated It meant
practically sure death. One car, half
filled with negroes, approached from
an outside run. The mob dashed for
the car Resistance was made by the
negroes, who had not been apprised OF
trouble. Three negroes lay dead on
the floor of the car when 1t was per
mitted to move on, and two more
were beaten unconscious.
The city is now controlled by the
police aided by nearly 1000 of the
state militia. Every part of the town
is patrolled by soldiers and the author
ities seem to have the situation well in
hand. Governor Terrell stands ready
TO declare the city under martial law
if the scenes of Saturday night are re-
peated.

Intervention Seems Inevitable.

Peace for Cuba, unless accomplished
through American intervention, seems
to be further away than when Secre-
tary of War Taft and Assistant Secre-
tary of State Bacon began negotia-
tions to harmonize the opposing fac
tions. The arrival of three of the
largest United States battleships and
two cruisers besides those already in
Havana has had little effect on the in
surgents in the field, and when the
leaders of the revolution were ap-
prised Of the big squadron now in
Cuban waters they greeted the In
formation with Spanish expressions to
the effect that they cannot come to
the BUSH"
Secretary Taft has cabled to Presi-
dent Roosevelt regarding the gravity
of the situation and Mr. Roosevelt is
expected to dictate the future pro-
gram of his commissioners.
Warships Ready to Land Men.
Although the situation in Cuba has
not improved since the arrival of Sec
retary Taft and has, if anything, be-
come more serious, the secretary has
not given up hope that peaceable
settlement may be found without dis
turbing Cuban independence. The
secretary, however has not so far an
nounced his plans and the action he
will take probably depends on the at
titude of the Moderate and Liberal
leaders within the next few days.
Pending settlement of the insur"
rection, the American warships in Ha-
vana harbor are ready to land men, In
addition to those now on shore, up to
the number of 1000 if necessary TO
] protect American lives and property.

Explosion of Car of Dynamite.

Twelve deaths, the injuring Of
scores of other persons and 100000
damage to property were caused
at Jellico, Tenn, on Friday when a
carload of dynamite standing on
track near the Southern railway
depot exploded with report that was
heard for 20 miles. Buildings were
shattered in the business section and
nearly every piece of glass within a
radius of one mile was broken.
Two causes are assigned for the ex.
plosion. One is that three parties
were shooing at a mark on the car
and that bullet entered the car and
caused the explosion. The other is
that while the car was standing on a
side track a carload of pig iron was
switched against 1t and that the i'm.
pact caused the explosion.
