= New York, Feb. 1S.-Twenty dead,
two fatally hurt and 145 more or less
seriously injured is the result OF
wreck of an electric express train on
the New York Central railroad at Two
hundred and Fifth street and Web
eter avenue. OF the large number OF
injured fifty are seriously hurt.
The train, filed with matinee
crowds and commuters, was made up
of five coaches.
The train was rounding sharp
curve when the three rear coaches
were derailed and, tunblilg on their
sides, were dragged 100 yards before
the couplings gave way and the four
cars piled together in ruins at the foot
OF low embankment.
A sheet of electric fame that sig
mailed the disaster enveloped the rear
car and for a moment threatened to
roast alive the victims pinioned in
the debris.
There was death for many, while
practically every one in the four
coaches received Injuries of sc me sort.
The speed was SO great that the
overturned coaches were dragged 400
yards.
Uninjurcd Dragged to Death.
While this distance was being
traversed men, women and children
who had ESCAPED injury in the ever
turning of the coaches were dragged
to death.
Finally the coaches plowed up
enough dirt and snow in front of them
to bring the engine to q halt. The
dead and dying were strcwr along the
tracks. The victims were utterly un-
recognizable
1t was with difficulty that the res
cuers could tell whether the victims
were white or black. Many of them
had their clothing torn of and were
almost nude when found.
Scattered over the tracks were the
muti.ated remains ,Of the passengers.
In gathering them UP the rescuers
made no attempt to place them to-
'gether, but separate piles were made
of each part of the human anatomy
found.
. Police reserves from half dozen
or more stations were ordered imme-
diately to the scene of the disaster.
The spreading of the rails is said to
have. caused the wreck. The train
was going at a seventy-mile An hour
rate

 Governor Conner appeared to be much pleased with the result of the contin- ned conference last evening. He de- erected would result in great good to all concerned.
 'sThe demands of the State were nothing but just and right" declared the Governor "and l am satisfied will end very satisfactorily to all interests concerned.
 '@rhe settlement emphasizes the fact that the State is dominant in those matters which concern her own laws and touch most closely her own afA fairs. The State at no time has asked anything that was improper or unjust, and the wisdom of the railroad in sec ing that fact rebounds to its credit"

 T can see no reason why they should not" was the reply. The position taken by the State has been nothing but right, and can hardly understand why any of the roads should not be willing to accede to the terms.
 The State of course expects to en- force It's laws, both criminal and civil. And 1t seems to me that 1t would be better for all concerned. if the various railroads could agree to some such ternds as has the Southern"
 Judge Humphrey of Louisville. one of the general counsel for the South ern, stated last evening that the repre- sentatives of the road had agreed to the terms of compromise, not so much from necessity as from sense of duty to the people who were patrons of the road.
 The road had reduced it's rates in some other States, he declared, and he felt that the people of Alabama were entitled to a similar reduction. The representatives had felt that it would be unjust to the patrons of the road to tie the system up in interminable liti- gation, which must of necessity result in trouble and embarrassment to the patrons. For the same reason the course that had been suggested, of the road stopping its intra-state business in Alabama, was not to be thought of for a moment
 It was, in other words, from a sense of patriotism to the State that has in the past been aided so much by the Southern. and from sense of loyalty

 Lines That are Affected.
 All the lines of the Southern Rail- way are included in the agreement to make the two laws in question effective September 1. And Colonel Russell. Vice. President of the Mobile and Ohio, which Is closely affiliated with the Southern declared yesterday that any agreement that might be reached by the South ern would also be made effective by the Mobile and Ohio. This action, 1t is stated, was taken voluntarily.
 The Alabama Great Southern, which is also closely affiliated with the Southern. had not formally taken ac. ton along that line, but 1t was under stood that it would do so within a day or two. There is no question whatever that 1t will follow the same course as the Southern and the Mobile and Ohio.
 Other lines of the State which, even though connected so far as ownership is conc(rned, with the Southern, are under an entirely separate and dis tinct management, will not be included. Included in this class are such roads as the Seaboard Air Line, the Western of Alabtma and the Central of Geor- gia.
 The lines of the Southern Railway proper, upon which the lower rates will be- made effective the first of next month, are as follows:
 The line from Birmingham to Selma, that from Rome to Selma and thence to Mobile; that from Birmingham to Att lanta: the old Memphis and Charles ton. running from Chattanooga to Mem- phis, passing through Alabama along the Tennessee River, and including the short stub from Sheffield to Florence: the line from Rome to Attalla; that from Selma to York and from Selma to Akron.
