Firemen on Sunset Route Threaten
Extreme Measure.

Houston, Tex, Dec. &c. The new
feature of the strike of the Southern
Pacific firemen was the assertion made
by Second Grand Master Shea, of the
brotherhood, that unless an adjustment
of the differences with the men now out
on this division is made, the order is to
be given that the entire Hartman sys-
tenn of railroads shall lose the services
OF the Brotherhood of Firemen, includ-
ing those engineers who are members.
he asserting that SO per cent of the
switch engineers and goodly number
of the road engineers will end their
services ON the road.
Mr.. Shea insists that 625 men on the
Texas and Louisiana lines of the svs-
tenn obeyed the strike order Sunday.
but General Manager Fay, of the road
declares that not more than 400 men
quit work, and that practically all of
the places have been filled. There is
no interference with operation of
trains, according to the statement of
Mr.. Fay, but number of switch en-
gines at division points are reported
idle in the yards. No disorder of anv
kind has been reported.

Tacoma-ssattIe Passenger and Work
Trains Meet on Curve.


Tacoma, Wash, Dec. 81. - Interur-
ban train No. 3, bound from Seattle to
Tacoma, and work train consisting OF
a motor and Ave fiatars, collided head
on in cut about mile east Of Milton
Wednesday morning. Two persons
were killed, one probably fatally hurt,
and IA more or less badly hurt. The
first coach OF the interurban passenger
was telescoped, and two OF the fiatcars
piled on top Of it.
There were about 90 passengers in
the telescoped smoker, some Of whom
strangely escaped with only slight in
juries. The car was entirely demol-
iahed, and some of the passengers were
hurled 90 feet In the flying wreckage.
Train No. 3 from Seattle was late
and had orders to sidetnck at Edge
wood TO let No. 8, the passenger for
Seattle, pass. The work train was
given orders at Milton to follow No. .
to Edgewood. c. X. Foss, brakeman
on the work train, was sent to Edge

3 and hold it on the sidetrack until the
work train cleared. He either failed
to place the flag or there was a misun-
Of orders. Foss disap-
peared and cannot be found.
No. 3 pulled out on the main track
AZ soon Ms No. passed and being late,
started down the grade at good speed.
Half a mile this side Of Edgewood on
curve that runs through deep cut, IL
met the work train. The curve Is 30
short that 1t was impossible for the
crews Of either train TO see the other
until TOO late to stop.
The trains came together with crash
that was heard half mile. The two
forward cars OF the work train went
over the platform OF the first car Of the
striking II at an angle on ac-
count OF the curve. To this fact alone
Is due the escape from death OF every
In the car.

Washington, Dec. 26.-The sixth an
nual report OF the director OF education
In the Philippines concerning the actiy'
titles Of the educational work in the
islands for the year ending June 80,
1905, shows that there are now 3,16o
primary schools in the islands, with an
average Of 1916, 554 pupils. Seven hun
bred American aud 6,224 Filipino
teachers are employed. All of the
school divisions, the report says, con-
Quoted teachers Institutes, varying
from four to six weeks in the different
provinces. The instruction given was
divided between the common branches
of the intermediate course and special
topics Of instruction, such as school
gardening, domestic science, primary
industrial work and methods Of teach
ing.
There are 2,454 primary school build
ings In the islands owned by the mu-
inequalities and, in addition, number
Of buildings belonging to the provinces
but not constructed originally for school
purposes are used. Private instruction,
the report says, plays large part in
the intellectual condition Of the islands.
Many OF these schools are supported by
the Catholic church, with history
reaching back several decades. Some
Of these institutions teach English, al
though in practically all Of them Span
ish is the basis of instruction. The
Filipino teachers, DR.. Barrows says,
continue to gain in reliability, strength
Of character and moral purpose.

No New. Since ssntsmhsr.

Washington, Dec. 2s. - Complaint
has been made to the Postoilice depart
ment that no newspaper or magazine
mail has been delivered at Fairbanks,
Alaska, since September. This is due
to the fact that the mail contractor Is
obliged to carry SEQ pounds OF mail ON
each bi-weekly trip from Valdez, and
practically this entire amount is now
made up OF first-class, OF letter mail.
The government pays si.45 per pound
for getting mall to Fairbanks, and
lower classes have to wait until there Is
a shortage Of frst-class matter.
