HOW ACCIDENT OCCURRED
Switching Crew Uses Main Line OF
=>~sTf~ Passenger Train IS Time. i

Information concerning the accident
was meager at the general Offices Of the
company in Minneapolis. l.. F. Day,
vice president and general managare,
said that all the information he had OBJ
tanned was to the effect that four peo-
pie, all OF them passengers, were killed.
According to Mr.. Day the accident
was caused by a switching crew in the
yards running onto the main line on the
time of the passenger train which was
about fifteen minutes late The switch.
ing engine was light, and the passenger
train was running at rather fast rate
of speed. - .....s ~,
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 unframed. Ap-
parently. the passengers in the smoking
car were the. only ones hurt. It is
known that four were killed, but as
yet no information has been received as
to the number of injured. 80"
A fully equipped wreckinp train left
the Minneapolis & st. Louis yards q
few minutes after H. o'clock for the
scene of the wreck at New Prague.
+. The train was ready for use at a
moment s. notice and soon. an the
crew could be summoned it pulled out.
A crew large enough to handle the sit
uat1on was sent out and the train was
given the right Of way that the run
could be made in an hours time.

4 Des Moines, Iowa, Sept. 24.-Gover-
nor Cummins and Senator Garst tried
their hands at pumping a handcar; in

Stranded at Maple Hill, hamlet,
after making speeches at Svea City,
the gubernatorial party decided it
would not wait several hours for a
train, in view of the fact that a rain
storm was threatening, and so they ap-
propriated two handcars to take them
to Gridley, Mimi, where they planned
taking train for home. The governor
was captain of one crew and Garst
commanded the other, both working
The handcars were taken without
permission, and as the governors plat
form is strong anti-pass, this free trans
portation may be turned to account by
his enemies. The governor and his
bumpers just made their connections
and escaped the storm.

Be Disseminated

Oyster Bay, Sept. 24.-President
Roosevelt has contributed 500 to be
used by Rear Admiral Thomas in a
legal suit instituted recently at,sNew-
port, R. l., to determine whether or not
man be excluded from public place
of entertainment because he wears the
uniform of the United States army or
navy. :.:..~ = < :,s.,;
President Roosevelt. today made pub
lie the following letter, which he. has
sent to Rear. Admiral Thomas: =. 80
ct inclose 800 to ibe, used in that
suit which, thanks to- you, has been so
wisely undertaken to: test the legality
of excluding any man from any public
place Of, entertainment because he
wears tho United States uniform. I
feel that it lis ~the duty Of every good
citizen to endeavor in every shape and
way to make it plain that he regards
the uniform of the United States army
and navy, just as much as when worn
by an enlisted man as when worn by
an officer, as badge Of honor and
therefore emitting the wearer to honor
as long as he behaves decently.
"There is no finer body of men in all
our country than the enlisted men Of
the army and navy of the United
States, and [ cannot sufficiently I: ex-
press my Indignation and contempt for
any man who treats his uniform save
with the respect to which it is entitled.
elf a man misbehaves himself, then,
no matter what uniform he wears he
shall be dealt with accordingly, but the
fact of wearing the United States uni
form should be accepted as presumptive
evidence that the man who wears it is
all right and any discrimination
against the uniform as such is more
than presumptive evidence that the
man thus dis eliminating is all wrong

be paying half the expenses of a suit

STEAMBOATS, AGAIN
Ply ON MISSOURI
Arrival Of Packet Is Cheered BY
Thousands at Kansas
City.

Kansas City, Sept. 24.-With the
blowing Of whistles, ringing of bells
and the glad acclaim of thousands who
had gathered at the river shore, the
renewal of steamboat traffic ON the
Missouri river after lapse Of more
than a decade was celebrated today,
when the steamer Lora, laden with
freight from St. Louis, locked at the
wharf in this city
Every local craft of any pretension
went several miles down the river to
act as an escort for the Lora. and
the appearance of the fleet, with the
freighter in the lead, was the signal
for one Of the most. genuine outbnrsts
of enthusiasm ever, occasioned by any
event IN the commercial life Of this
city. ~ <,s
The successful trip of the Lora un-
der the most unfavorable eircum-
stances, the river being exceptionally
low and its channel UNEMPLOYED for sew
Ieral years, proved conclusively that the
Missouri is q navigable stream.

WASHBURN COAL
Mine IN FLAMES
Valuable Property of Minneapolis
Man Is Burning -Miners
Narrowly Escape.
Special to The Journal.

Bismarck, N. D., Sept. 24.-The Will
ton Coal mine Of W. D. Washburn of
Minneapolis, the largest in the. state,
is on fire and all mining work has been
suspended in an eff8rt to sxtingnish
the flames. 49,. ....>.. lar es-s.1 -.
The mine has been burning for two
weeks. but the fact was kept secret
until Saturday night, when FIVE miners
were nearly suffocated while working
in the burning passage. They were
rescued with great risk by their COM
rades and doctors worked over them for
a long time before they were resusci-
tated.
The fire has created gas and smoke,
which fills nearly all the mine passages,
making fre-fghting not only difficult
but dangerous. A. hole is now being
sunk from the surface down seventy
feet, to where the fire is raging, with
the idea Of drawing off the gas and
permitting the burning chamber to be
sealed.
Scarcity Of water makes the flood
ing Of the burning part of the mine
| almost impossible. - 80
Unless the fire is soon extinguished
the loss will be very great. 81 '~. -

Lawyer and Jailer.

By the admissions of William Nc
Evan, the desperate man recently con-
victed of highway robbery, County At
torney Al J. Smith and Jailor Nels
Clausen escaped assassination only by
the narrowest margin and thru the care
of the authorities.
Discoveries made yesterday bear out
McEwan S statements. = A dangerous
dagger, made from caseAnife, was
found concealed in the middle of Nc
Evan s mattress when it was torn to
pieces befor it was burned at the order
of Sheriff J. w. Dreger. This, together
with the knowledge that has come to
the Jail officials relative to McEwan g
desperate plans, proves that he in
tended on the day of sentence in the
courtroom to stab Mr. Smith and Mr..
Clausen and then take his own life.
He has openly stated since his arrest,
that he would not be taken to Stillwa-
ter alive, and that he would take few

cause OF the prosecutor's plea to the
jury in which he referred to McEwan

Upon information conveyed the au-
thorities Saturday of McEwan's plans,
ne was carefully searched and placed
in the munlerer's cell Of the county
jail, and under the surveillance of
death watch.' Even with this pre-
caution McEwan soaked match heads
in his coffee and nearly died from the
effects of the potion before medical
aid was secured. Later, while eating.
he slyly broke the head off his spoon
and then knocked the globe from the
lamp in his cell, blowing out the light
at the same time. In the darkness that
followed he sharpened the spoonhandle
to dangerous point on the cement
floor. A search of the cell, after a
new globe had been secured and the
lamp relighted, revealed the impro-
vised weapon hidden in McEwan IS
mattress. 49, =, ~ - ~ 5se.- ?
The desperate man will be sentenced
and taken to Saltwater tonight, and
when he has gone, the Jail authorities
will have been relieved of the greatest
strain to which they have ever been
subjected. Upon the advice of one of
the judges of the district court, the
prisoner was, put in shackles last
night and will be kept so until, he is
taken to prison.
