THE DISASTER
TO TOURISTS.
Salisbury Wreck Inquest Ad-
journed for Fortnight Crit
CheII at Deaths Door.

SALISBURY, England, July 3.-The
majority of the bodies of the score of
Americans who lost their lives in the
wreck of the Plymouth express Sunday
morning are prepared and await their
return for burial to the land they left
so recently in the fullness of life and
hope. Frederick H. Cossitt's body al
ready has been forwarded to London
on its way to America.
The inquest has been adjourned for
a fortnight. The delay Is believed to
be due to the declared intention of the
board of trade to institute d special in
quiry.
One of the most interesting cases at
the infirmary is that of Robert S. Crit
chell of Chicago. He is constantly
watched over by his cousin, j. L. Crit
chell of London, who, oddly enough,
| started in his business career within
a few yards of the spot where Mr..
Critchell now lies at Deaths door.
Albert w. Swain, the American
consul at Southampton, states that only
two bodies are unclaimed, that nearly
all the injured are doing well.
Bulletins from the infirmary say the
cases of Miss NJ. Rask of Norfolk
street, Park lane, London, and Miss l..
s. Griswold of Borough Heath, Eng
land, remain highly critical.
Walter Gerson, the first passenger to
escape from the wreck, had a narrow
escape. He tells the story thus:
about midnight Mcdonald invited
II. s. Critchell and me to have supper
with him and Mr.. McMeakin and tho
ladies' Of their party. Supper was serv-'
ed. and we were quite a merry party.
McMeakin said he never enjoyed a
better supper. Poor fellow, it was his
last. Mcdonald was telling what a
good time he was going to have OIL this
side.
"The train rocked a great deal all
the way, but no was alarmed. But
going through Salisbury we felt a Sc
we're shock, and 1 spraug up, grabbed
a strap and held on. The train ran
smoothly for a moment and then-the
crash.
at all happened in a second. The
woodwork and glass flew in q storm
that penned McMeakin in a corner and
killed him instantly. Mcdonald was
instantly killed too.
Mrs. Mcdonald had arisen to leave
the compartment. She vas thrown nn-
der the table, and this certainly saved
her life. for the weight of debris that
fell on II did not crush the table.
"Our carriage turned over on its side.
with the wheels in the air. / protected
my head with my right arm and so was
not hurt much by the flying wood and
glass. l got a window open and drop
ped out. l found | was the first out.
Others followed, and we started to get
the people from the wreck.
sThe first one we got out was young
Frederick Cossitt; then his wife, who
is only nineteen. He was dying. She.
uninjured, was as brave as tender, al
though she was in great danger be-
cause of the CARRIAGES unsafe position.
she would not let us help her until we
had taken out her husband. We all
called them the happy couple, they
were SO light hearted and their devo-
ton was so touching. My heart bleeds
for her.
Near the next carriage were the bod
les Of three women, one pinned down
by wreckage.
Never viii I forget the awful sight"

MOVEMENT To
HELP PACKERS
American Live Stock Are Health
lest in the World President
BOOmS Canned Beet.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Secretary
Wilson of the department of agricul-
ture has decided not to enter upon his
! annual vacation until he has complet
ed the organization necessary to put
into operation the new meat inspec-
ton law. He will give practically his
entire time to this work for the next
two months. The new pure food law
also will require attention, but he in
tends to leave this almost wholly to
DR.. II. w. Wiley, chief of the bureau
of chemistry.
BY direction of the president Secre-
tary Wilson has issued the following
statement:
American live stock are the health
lest In the world. The great ranges of
the west produce herds of cattle in
which the percentage of disease is re
markably small, and the federal gov
eminent is steadily reducing by ap
proved scientific methods this SINAI
percentage. The inspection of the m
mails before and at time of %slaaghte
always has been thorough. 1t Il ti1l
that the department of agriculture b
heretofore lacked the power and mo
ey to provide for an efficient supcrvi
sion of sanitation and the methods o.
preparation of canned meat and food
products.
1.-THE legislation which has just be
come effective provides the department
of agriculture with an adequate law
and with ample money to carry 1t into
effect. Supervision and Inspection will
be extended from the pasture to the
package. The federal stamp upon the
can will be a guarantee not only of the
healthfulness of the animal, but also
that the product was prepared in SAM
tary surroundings and with the add
ton of no deleterious chemical or pre-
servative. Any meat product bearing
the government stamp will be fit for
food.
"NWith this law In operation it may
be accepted as Il fact that for health
fulness and purity the prepared or can
ned product will compare f%avorably
with the fresh meat of the United
States, which is and always has been
the finest in the world.
".The new law is comprehensive, the
means for its enforcement are ample,
and ITS execution will be thorough.
People at home and abroad may use
meats with the utmost confidence"
