SATURDAY, MARCH 30, 1906.

Senator Depew continues to de cline invitations to dinners and other public functions and it is probable that the once famous wit and after dinner speaker has told his last joke at affairs of this kind. Within the last month there were about a dozen annual affairs which the senator never missed, but his chair was va cant at all of them.

NO ONE HURT EXCEPT EXPRESS MES.
SENGER FALLS.

The northbound passenger train on the
Blue Ridge railroad was partially
wrecked last Wednesday afternoon a
short while. before o'clock, one mile
above Anderson. The train was in charge
of Conductor j. G. Marshall and Engi-
neer Maxwell. When it had reached the
siding at the Townsend twine mill the
trucks on the front car gave way and
caught on the switch. This car, which
was used for baggage and express, was
derailed and thrown over on its side.
The two remaining cars, in which were a
number of passengers, were partially
turned over. No one was hurt, except
Express Messenger Falls, who was
slightly bruised.
The track was cleared of the wreck by
the following morning and trains were
able to pass through. No blame is at
tached to anyone, the accident having
been due solely to the breaking of the
trucks on the front car.

RESERVATION.

Sheridan, Wyo., Oct. 31-"We are
going to visit Chief White Cow Bull
Of the Cheyennes at any cost and will
not be taken back to Utah to starve.
We would rather die first" is the sub
stance Of the answer of Chief Kan
napp to the soldiers.
The Indians are getting holder and
pay no attention to the soldiers. A
fight was almost started during the
night when an Indian encountered a
sentinel of the Tenth cavalry. The
Indian refused to turn out of the path
and rudely bumped against the sol.
der. Only the Intervention of some
cavalrymen prevented serious en-
counter, as other Indians came up.
As the Utes are continually on the
move in small bands cowboys are
hired by the soldiers as scouts to keep
track of the Indians. The latest re.
port from the front locates the main
Ute band in the vicinity Of Moorhead
going rapidly toward the Cheyenne
reservation. Two more troop trains
are reported out of Fort Robinson.

from the speeches of the president

Of wealth. Mr.. Woodruff said concern
ing the publication:

SIXIY
NUMBER OF DEATHS AS RESULT
OF RAIL DISASTER AT AT.
LANTlc CITY, N. j.

Atlantic City, NJ j., Oct. 31.-With
all the recovered bodies identified and
seven persons reported missing the
authorities and railroad officials are
certain that the number killed on Sun
day in the drawbridge disaster on the
West Jersey Sea Shore Electric rail-
road will not exceed sixty. Fifty-two
bodies have been claimed, two of those
to be dead and FIVE are still unac-
counted for.
These seven victims are believed to
be wedged beneath the second pas
senger coach, which is held fast in the
muddy bottom of the Thoroughfare.
Efforts to dislodge this car produced
little result The ponderous trucks,
weighing about 100 tons, have sunk
deep into the mud. AS last resort it
was suggested that the wreckers use
dynamite to blow up the car, but this
will not be done unless all other plans
fail. d!
Following conference with City
Solicitor Wooten Coroner Gaskill de-
clared that it is absolutely certain that
more persons were killed in the dis
aster than is shown by the number Of
bodies recovered. The coroner says
he has information which proves that
the number of passengers on the train
was at least ninety-one, as originally
stated; that there were seventy-six
through passengers from Camden and
fifteen persons riding ON passes A
few got off at way stations, but more
got on at Pleasantville and other
points. The official number of identi.
fed dead shown by the coroner's re.
ports is fifty-one. Five are known to
have been killed whose bodies have
not been recovered, increasing the to-
tai to fifty.si Basing calculations on
the coroner's statement there are thir-
ty-five to be accounted for. About
twenty-five are known to have es-
capped, leaving at least ten more per-
sons who are supposed to have per-
ished inrthe accident.
