the sleeper. The day coach became
uncoupled from the train ahead, and
the engine and balance of the train
remained on the track.
The dead met their fate instantly

capped by the fact that the cars left
the track when they did instead OF
plunging into the river, only a few
feet further on.

London.-Owing to premature state
ments regarding the will Of the late
Alfred Belt, the South African million
aire, the executor Of Mr.. Belts estate
have given out the exact terms of the
public bequest, without, however, dis
closing the amount of the fortune left,

siderable time to estimate, owing to
the fluctuations in the price OF shares
left $125, 100000.
The sums enumerated reach the
vast total of $9,675OO0, not incluulng
the value of the estate bequeathed to
his native city of Hamburg, or the art

gallery and the museums of London
and Hamburg. 1t is, however, believ-
ed that the aggregate will be not far
short of $12,500,000.

will is that body of trustees get con

railway, telegraphs and wireless tele
