that the Illinois Central has refrained

New York, Nov s0.-President

scHMITz TO CUT RUFF.
Mayor Of Frisco Inclined to Abandon
Political Partner to His Fate.

Mayor of Frisco Inclined to Abandon
Political Partner to His Fate.
San Francisco, Cal. Nov. 30.-F'rom
best informed sources it was learned
yesterday that Mayor Schmitz and Abe
Ruef will dissolve partnership. 1t is
said the mayor feels that Ruef is in
mud far deeper than he is in mire and
that it will be better for his own case
if he is not tied up with the boss when
he comes to face the jury. The first
indication of this probable separation
came on the way across the continent
when Schmitz was asked as to the
guilt of Ruef. The mayor said: Il
can not speak for Mr. Ruef. l only
know / am innocent
At another time he said: "If Mr.
Ruef is guilty he should he punish
ed"
It is now learned that after CONSUL
tation with friends and advisers
Schmitz has decided that it will be
better for him to meet the charges
alone While there are Only one or
two distinct charges against Schmitz
Ruef is likely to face trial on dozen
indictments if Heney can make good
his promises. Under the circumstanc-
es Schmitz feels that his former asso-
ciate is in far worse plight than he is.
Advice to Schmitz to cut loose from
Ruef was given by friends who are
high in the councils of the republican
party. Il was pointed out that he
could not afford ITO remain tied UP with
a boss who is believed to b.. in worse
plight than the mayor.

Disaster in Progress.

Lynchburg, Nov. 30.--An investiga-
ton is being made today into the cir
cumstances which led to the wreck OF
two Southern railway fast trains near
here yesterday, resulting in the death
of President Spencer and six other
persons, and the injury to many 9TH
ers. The death of William Polar, a
negro porter in Spencer's private car,
and j. w. Shaw. a negro fireman, both
of whom died here last night, swelled
the death list to seven in sll. The lat
est word from the hospital regarding
the injured indicated all of them are
doing nicely and probably will recover.
Identification was made today of a
negro who was killed and his body
burned The victim was Benjamin

man.

Assistant General Superintendent
Coapman of the Southern Railway. to-
day gave out the following statement
to a representative of the Associate
Press:
Investigation so far made of yes
terday's accident develops the fact that
Operator Mattoax at Rangoon. let
train No 33 into the block, and disre-
garding the rules, failed to notify the
operator at the Lawyers depot of this
fact When the first section of train
No. 81, Washington and Southwestern
limited, approached Rangoon, Mattoax
asked the operator at Lawyers for the
block of No. 81 This was given by
the operator at Lawyers, who did not
know No 33 had gone in upon the
block. The, broke down at the south
end of a curve, and as soon as the train
stopped, a fagman ran back TO protect
his train. AS far as we can learn, the
hagman had proceeded about 800 yards
when the 81 was in view on the curve
Engineer Mckinney saw the signal and
applies the emergency brake, but he did
not have time to leave his seat before
the collision took place. Inspection OF
the telegraph sheets in each block sta
ton substantiates this belief. fuller
investigation will be made as speedily
as possible, but we do not expect to
develop any additional facts. The
company has a number of men scour-
ing the country in the hope of locating
Operator Mattoax, but UP to late
hour this forenoon, have been able to
ascertain absolutely nothing as to his
wherea bouts"

attempt was made to remove Michaei
A. Myendorff, the land officer and
detective who testified at Salt Lake
City on Wednesday and who mentions
two Wyoming senators unfavorably
during his testimony. According to
Smith, Myendorff, after completing the

statement in which he said:
Statements contained in the mOrn-
ing papers, rejecting on Mr.. Pol1ocks

solutely untrue. Mr.. Pollock states
most emphatically that he has never
personally nor officially, by direction
or suggestion expressed or implied
nor by any act Of commission or in
tended omission, aided Of countenanced
failure to prosecute of the suppress
sion of any prosecution of the invests
cation referred to. Mr.. Pollock char-
acterized the statement that he advis-
ed Mr.. Myendorff to destroy the af-
fidavits alluded to as willfully false. He
affirms that he never saw and was
never informed Of any affidavits which
did not in due and regular course be-
come and remain part of the records
Of the office; that he gave MyendorM
no instructions whatever in regard to
the investigation except as expressed
in official letters, which are on file and
record in the land office. No other
advice to him was necessary, as the
we'll established rules of the office in-
structed him fully as to his duty.
Mr.. Pollock says he cannot under-S
stand Myendorff's motive in making
the charge and will have the matter
sifted fully.
