MILK WAGON
HAS ACCIDENT
HORSE BECAME FRIGHTENED
AND DUMPS OUTFIT INTO
A SNOW DRIFT.
D. & W. CAR CAUSES IT ALL
Mi1N Spills On Hot Stove and Smoke
! Arises Driver and Wife
Were Rescued.
49, NJ

An unusual accident happened
yesterday afternoon near Eaton on
account of horse becoming fright
>ened at a Dayton & Western car. The
car was approaching a crossing,
which is at the top of high embank-
ment, when a farmer and his wife
driving in milk wagon tried to get
across before the car reached the
point. Owing to the snow the car was
running very slowly and the motor
man brought the car to a stop some
distance from the crossing.
The horse attached to the milk
wagon became frightened and bolted
down the side of the embankment,
with the result that the animal and
the wagon rolled over into deep
snow drift. The car crew and pas
sengers left the car, to go to the as
sistance Of those imprisoned in the
milk wagon. They were startled to
see smoke issuing from the submerg-
ed wagon and, the side was at dnce
broken in and the man and woman
hauled out. Tt was found that the
smoke was caused by the milk spill
ing out Of the cans on the little stove
in the wagon.

! RIGHTS. OF The !

CAN PRIVATE COMPANIES USE
THE HISTORIC NATIONAL
ROAD?
new POINT NOW INVOLVED
Indianapolis & Eastern Traction Co.
Up Against Stiff Proposition
in Hancock County.

The Indianapolis & Eastern Trac-
ton Company, which operates the
Richmond Interurban Line, may have
it's present troubles in Hancock coun-
ty duplicated in Wayne county il
success crowns the efforts of the land
owners in Hancock.
Farmers owning realestate along
the National road in that county
along which the electric road runs
presented a petition to the County
Commissioners yesterday, asking that
the Indianapolis & Eastern compa-
ny's franchise be annulled. The pc
tition is signed by every person who
owns abutting land, and they are de-
telmined in their efforts to bring the
road to their demands, which are
the restoration of stops as originally
in force and as was agreed, they say,
with the builders of the road, the
lowering Of the rails to the level of
the road, covering Of open bitches,
etc. The. Commissioners postponed
action until next Saturday.
Should the Commissioners grant
the petition and annul the franchise,
which the members of the board were
willing to do yesterday, the greatest
law suit ever origiated in Hancock
County will be filed and fought
through all the courts. The rights
of the Commissioners to grant privi-
leges on the National road have al
ways been questioned, but never
reached the courts. The National road
was built by the United States, and
it is claimed never became the prop
erty of the county. Local men who
constructed the electric road, how
ever, say the highest authorities
made thorough research of all records
when the road was financed, and that
there can be no question of the Com
missioners' right to control it. Other
questions will come up also that will
make the case Of even National inter
est if the franchise is annulled.

WILL UNCLE SAM
BE CALLED UPON TO STOP THE
ROW IN CUBA?
1t Looks That Way, and the Queen Of
the Antilles May Yet Belong
to the United States,

| Havana. Neither side can whip
the other" is the concise statement
now heard everywhere in Havana,
and it may also be fairly construed to
be the growing conviction of thought
full persons throughout the island In
Havana, at least, this conviction has
led all unprejudiced persons to ex-
Pressions of an ardent hope that the
prerogatives of the Plat amendment
will soon be utilized by the United
States for the purpose of effectually
putting an end to a condition that
everybody believes is otherwise bound
to grow more and more intolerable.
Nobody appears to believe that the
insurgents will take Havana, although
this is not regarded as impossible,
especially when it is considered that
cooperation in such a movement as
suredly would come from within.
Everybody comedies that the gov
eminent troops can continue their
record of victories in almost all open
fights with the insurgents, but how
the government, with the forces now
small number of enlistments, can
ever prevail against it's enemies who
fight in the same old method of guer
rilla warfare, is a conundrum which
nobody pretends to solve.
That the instruction is growing
constantly is undeniably evidenced
every day, and the decree of pardon
recently extended by the government
has brought no appreciate change
in the situation. One of the few
Americans who joined the insurgent
ranks has come into Havana He
was a farmer in Cuba for several
years past, and presumably is a reli
able source of information. He told
the correspondent of the Associated
Press that the $4,000 insurgents now
south of Artemisa, in scattered par
ties, shortly will concentrate with
others from the vicinity of Guanajay
and holding the entire width of Eas-
tern Pinar del Rio province, they will
thus control the situation far better
than did the Spanish troops in thedays
of the famous trocha, and at precisely
the same points. The insurgents also
already have taken Cabanas and Ba-
h1a Honda, on the north coast Of
Pinar del Rio province, and, accord
ing to conservative statements, they
have easily IS per cent of the people
of this district with them.

Not MANY Like Her.

San Francisco.-The world-famous
collection of precious stones and jew
elry, the property of the late Mrs.
Jane Stanford, valued at nearly
$1,000,000 will be sold by the trustees
of Leland Stanford Jr University as
soon as possible. This action was de-
cided upon at meeting of the trus-
tees held recently. Part of the col
lection will be disposed of at private
sale. Many offers from Western jew
elers are on file. Those not sold will
be put up at auction in New York and
London. Members of the board of
the university say that their action
is merely carrying out the expressed
wish of Mrs. Stanford that the jewels
be sold and that library fund be
started with the proceeds, the income
of which shall be used for the pur-
chase of books.

,FRIsco's CROP OF GENIUS.
Second Only to New York in Vieor
and Freshness of Its Literature.

New York is of course the great
American market for literary wares,
says E. S. Martin in Appleton's
Magazine. There is also a measure of
hospitality shown to writer's and their
products in Boston, Philadelphia, Chi
cago and Indianapolis.
But San Francisco for thirty years
past has beaten all four of these sub
sidiary literary centers in the fresh
ness and vigor of its inspirations.
1t has had an ocean of its own to
stimulate it's Imagination, new coun-
try behind and about it and an ad
venturous and virile population that
has liked to live its own life in it's
own way and dream and live it's own
romances.
1t has had money. too. 1t has sent
out its ENJOYS to view the world land
good many of them have stayed
away, and because it has been one
of the worlds great starting places
and landing places it has viewed ha-
bitually from its own doorstep pretty
much every kind of human creature
that has been worth looking at.
Altogether, San Francisco has been
like no other city of our republic.

They Criticise Roosevelt.

London.-President Roosevelt's de-
cision to employ Chinese labor on the
Panama canal is criticised by labor
members Of the House of Commons.
Keir Hardie, leader of the party, said:
Il hope the matter has not progressed
to the point of definite settlement
My views on the American question
of Chinese labor may be expressed
in a single sentence. l hope that
the people of the United States will
have learned from the experience of
the British government in South AT
RIGA, and will keep the Chinese out as
they would the plague. Chinese and
Chinese slavery under the conditions
which obtained in South Africa are
associated in the public mind. From
the form in which the news reached
us, | gather that the terms under
which Chinese are to be introduced
are almost identical with those which
governed their introduction into
South Africa. My sympathies are,
therefore. with the people of Amer
lea"
