 Waterloo, Iowa, Sept. 7-The even- ing flyer on the Rock Island railroad collided with freight train just east of this city last night and was com pletely wrecked, every car leaving the track. The smoker and day coach were smashed into kindling wood, and twelve of the passengers killed out right. During the night, ghouls from this city went to the scene of the wreck and proceeded to loot the bodies of the dead. One of them was caught in the act by one of the express car guards and shot dead. After that there was no more footing. The mis- understanding of an order by the con- ductor of the freight train was the cause of the accident.
 Vancouver, Sept. 9-Baron Ishi was given a view of the other side of life Saturday night, when he witnessed an anti foreign labor parade and riot in Chinatown and the Japanese district. Fully two thousand men were impli- cated and carried matters with high hand, demolishing Jap town and driv- ing the Japanese out to seek shelter elsewhere. A report is in circulation that Ishi has cabled to Tokio for a battleship, and in case one is sent, trouble of serious nature is bound to ensue. This city is at present con- pletely overrun with cheap foreign labor, Japs, Chinese and Hindoos, so that there is hardly any chance for a white man to obtain work at any posi- tion these people can fill. It is said that 5000 more Japanese and Chinks are now on the high seas headed for this port and due within the next ten days; should they come and attempt to land bloodshed will follow.
 Seattle, Sept. 9-The steamer, San ta Barbara, bound from this port to Valdez, struck an uncharted rock in the Gulf of Georgia, yesterday, and was beached to prevent sinking. The Dolphin, south bound, was attracted to the spot by the distress signals of the wrecked vessel and stood by to render assistance in case same was needed. The vessel had but thirty passengers on board at the time of the accident, all of whom were panic stricken. The vessel lies high on the beach with a great hole in her port bow. The steamer Victoria has been sent to the scene of the wreck, carrying complete wrecking outfit, and will probably take off the entire cargo of the wrecked vessel, together with her passengers. The Dolphin, reports that the crew and passengers of the Santa Barbara were camping ashore and ap- parently very comfortable. The Santa Barbara in the opinion of the ocffiers of the Dolphin will have to go to dry dock for repairs.
 Seattle, Sept. 9-Secretary Taft ar rived in the city yesterday afternoon and was greeted at the wharf by a cheering crowd of fully ten thousand people. He was driven at once to the Grand Opera house where meeting had been arranged by the I'M. c. A. The big building was packed to its ut most limit and marked attention was shown by everybody. This afternoon he will make his political speech and tonight will be rendered a banquet and reception by the Taft Club. De- finite arrangements have not been made for the two extra days Mir. Taft will have in Seattle owing to the postponment of the sailing of the Minnesota from the 10th to the 12th. It is altogether probable that at least one day will be devoted to visit to the government navy yards at Brem- erton.
 Seattle, Sept. 10-Francis J. Heney who has so successfully prosecuted the Oregon land fraud cases and the San Francisco graft cases arrived here to- day. Mr. Heney was approached re- garding the prosecution of grating ocfiials in Seattle, but positively re- fused, giving as his reason for doing so that he intends to retire from prac- tice just as soon as it is possible for him to bring to conclusion the cases that are now occupying his attention in San Francisco.
 San Francisco, Sept. 10-In the fifth round of the fight last night between Britt and Cans, Britt broke his wrist on the colored fighter. An hour later the judges rendered decision in favor of Cans. The fight was spirited while it lasted, but Britt was clearly outclassed from the beginning. and could easily have been put out by Cans any time after the second round.
