ADVISE HOLLAR NOT TO LAND
Attorneys Said to Be Negotiating
With Bannings for Wharf
PRIVILEGES

For the fourth time within the past
two weeks the San Diego, a Long
Beach craft, yesterday made the trip to
Catalina in an attempt to force an open
port.
1t was reported that Cant. Hollar and
his crew would tear down the fences
surrounding Avalon with graphing
hooks, but before the ship reached the
harbor it was boarded by representa-
tive from the island who presented
them with a telegram from Capt. Hol-
lars attorney.
In 1t the doughty captain and his
passengers were asked not to try and
force landing, as the attorney was
proceeding with negotiations with the
Bannings.
Capt. HoIlar thereupon backed out of
the harbor, and after sailing around
the island returned to Long Beach.
1t was rumored about the island yes
terday thta a special concession for
landing of passengers had been grant
ed steamship company of Long Beach
and that the rates would be reduced at
an early date.

WRECK
New York Express Crashes into An
other Train at Eddlngton, Penn
syIvania, With Fearful
Results

BY Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 29.-Runnine
at great speed against a signal set uI
against it, and a flagman who was
wildly waving a warning to the engi-
neer Of danger ahead, the New York
express train bound for Philadelphia
on the New York division of the Penn
sylvania railroad crashed into a stalled
Lone Branch express at Eddington to-
day, with the result that three persons
are dead and forty injured, several of
whom are believed to be fatally hurt.
That more persons were not killed is
considered remarkable, as three of the
cars of the Long Branch train are COM
pletely telescoped.
The dead:
MRS. A. H. CONNELL, Trenton, N.
j., wife of a railroad brakeman.
MARY GRAIN, Philadelphia.
MARY O'MALLEY, Railway, N. ].
Engineer Van Arsdale of the New
York express, who was not hurt, said
he saw the red signal as we'll at the
flagman, but was unable to bring his
train to a standstill, although he had
experienced no trouble whatever in
stopping at Trenton, which was the
last stop he had made.
After the accident Fireman Boswick
of the New York express said he found
the angle cock of the third car of the
train turned away, which cut off the
air from all the cars back of the first
three.

KILLS HIS WIFE,;
COMMITS SUICIDE
FRESNO MAN PREFERS DEATH
TO SUFFERING
When Told He Must Enter Hospital,
Charles Brewer Decides to
Murder His Entire
Family
IA AssooInted Press.

FRESNO, Sept. 29.-Because his de-
voted affection for his wife would not
permit him to leave her to 'go to the
hospital for treatment for fatal lung
hemorrhages, Charles lever shot his
sleeping wife and then killed himself
at O'Clock this morning at their home
at M and Mono streets.
Brewer was to have been taken to
the hospital today and he had frequent
ly said that If his Illness was fatal or
that he would have to go to hospital
he would kill his family.
His 9-year-old child Bert escaped
death by hiding.
Brewer was a motorman on an elec-
trio car here and was hurt in cable
car wreck In San Francisco one year
ago, from which he contracted his ILL
ness.
The relatives of Brewer live at Ukiah.
His wife was Miss Clayton of Healds-
burg, Cal.
He shot his wife twice in the fore
head as she lay asleep with the boy at
her side, and after a fruitless search
for the boy, who had escaped and con-
cealed himself behind a trunk, sent a
bullet through his left temple, falling
dead on a lounge in an adjoining room.
Death in both cases was instanta-
neous.

ut was simply murder-that's what
1t was" exclaimed Hoppe. II saw the
whole thing. We were all on the first
train, the one that was struck, and II
had been standing on the track for
about thirty-f1ve minutes. There was a
siding nearby, but they did not put us
on that
About square behind us was the
signal, located on curve. I got out
of the car to light cigar and stretch
myself, and I noticed that the danger
signal was up. but the tower is at a
curve. Even if the engineer of the
train did not see it, as he doubtless did
he did not have time to stop.
''If the fiagman had only walked a
couple of hundred yards UP the track
beyond the curve Everything would
have been all right. The express trair
then would have had plenty of time to
stop before doing any damage.
when the second train came spin
ming around the curve I saw it coming,
but did not think 1t was on the same
track as ours. Then l saw that the
engineer had put his brakes on hard,
but 1t was no use. In few seconds
the train crashed into the rear end OF
theAone standing, telescoping the cars.
"The confusion was something ter
rible. Everybody was screaming and
trying to get out of the cars on both
trains. I rushed to the assistance of
my family and got them out safely.
1.-TWO dead people and seven injured
were taken from the car we were in
while we were there"
