of speedy medical aid.
 There were comparatively few in that crowd of rescuers who did not show some wound from the disaster. It is estimat that both trains were going at a speed of thirty to forty miles an hour. There was time to put on the brakes, and then both engine crews jumped, escaping injury.
 Lack of Surgical Attention.
 No medical or surgical aid reached the sufferers for fully an hour, when one doctor from West Canaan went to work where score or more were needed. A little later special train arrived with big force of surgeons from Hanover, Concord and White River Junction, the nearest large towns to the west. The more serious ly injured were hurried by the special train to Hanover, where those that had survived the trip were taken to the Margaret Hitchcock hospital at Dartmouth college. Eight died before the train reached White River June ton. Sixteen persons were taken dead from the wreck or died before a phy- sician arrived. These were taken in two trains to Concord. Hanover re- ceived in all twenty-seven of the in- iured

From a spectacular standpoint the
 offering of $4O,OOO,O0O corporate stock and bonds by the city of New York
 was distinct success; the subscrip-
 tions were more than fivefold the amount offered, says Banker Clews.
 But from the viewpoint of the bond and investment market the result was not so reassuring. The securities offered are taX-eXempt; and when the tax is considered they rank as 6 per cent security, for which 102--about the average price obtained-is certain ly not a favorable basis for distribu- ton when it is considered they have behind them the credit of the metrop- oils of the nation The sale indicates that we are clearly on new invest ment basis, and this in turn means that other high grade bonds must come nearer to this basis. The result of the sale naturally failed to stimu- late the quotations of stock exchange securities. There had been quite sub stantial activity, especially by pro- fessionals, in purchasing in anticipa- tion of a large oversubscription; and experienced operators began selling both in the form of proft-taking ou ! these anticipatory purchases and on short account even before the pro- posals were opened, on the ground that last weeks advance had fully discounted a successful offering and that any satisfactory features of the sale would be very promptly reflected. The course of the market fully iusti- fled the soundness of the argument.

SEPTEMBER 16, 1907.

During the late eruption of Mount Rininahuc in Chile, about 100 miles southeast of Valdivia, a large section of the country was laid waste by the lava and ashes, and farmhouses were destroyed, II persons killed, and about 20O persons destroyed. The lava and ashes damned up the Nenahue river so that it's course was materially changed, the water cutting new channel some distance from he old one to a depth of 35 feet. The eruption was accompanied by some severe earthquakes and rumblinss.

The Chanler boom for the presiden-
 cy seems to be growing, but whether
 1t will be able to keep up the pace or
 not remains to be seen. A well known
 Washington writer and a man who
 has been close to the leaders of the
 democratic party for many years says: So far as l am concerned, personally,
 l would rather see Hon Charles A.
 Culberson, of Texas, the president of
 the United States than any man in the
 country, because l know his ideal
 fitness for the position, but Mir Gull
 person is in no sense of the word q candidate, and perhaps does not be- lieve the time ripe for southern man to aspire to the position. also would like to see Mr Bryan president. He
 is one of the greatest men in the nation and I defer to no man in my admiration for him. but he has not yet come to the conclusion to be a candi- date. and perhaps he is considering his availability next year. If so, he is doing a patriotic thing and eiimi- mating himself for the good of the party, which is equivalent to the good of the country. The one boom and the one man that is attracting more attention just now in democratic circles here in the nation al capital. is the boom for young Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, the leu tenant governor of New York. His boom has already assumed such pro- portions and attracted such attention as to indicate the most formidable for any man in the Cuun- try for the democratic presidential with the possible excep- ton of Mr Bryan. Within the last few days it has been demonstrated that fhe democratic leaders of New York gre thoroughly in earnest in preparing 10 carry the New York delegation for Mir Chanler and are making overturcs .O other democratic leaders in eastern and southern states that indicate be- yond all peradventure of doubt that they are in the race to stay.

EAGLE TAKES CHILD TO TREE
Bird Carries Gladys vreeland to Top
 of a Tall Henloek.

Trenton, \. J., Sept. 16.-One of the pair of giant bald eagles that nest in a dead chestnut tree on waukhaw moun- tain, near Caldwell, carried three-year- old Gladys vreeland to the top of a tall hemlock tree and wrapped her into its branches, according to the sto- " told by her father, John Milton Vreeland, farmer.
 The child weighs forty pounds, and the great bird was barely able to main- tain it's flight under the weight. Its carrying on of the girl was more than half involuntary. its talons having be- come caught in her clothing when she attempted to save a hen from the eagle. The child's dress finally gave way and Gladys fell through the branches of the tree to the ground. where fortunately a pile of hay broke her fall, so that she was little injured. As the child dropped the eagle shot through the air toward the mountain at express train speed.

 Hits Freight Train.
 White River Junction, Vt, Sept 16.-- Twenty-Five and perhaps more people, mostly excursionists returning on the Quebec express from the Canadian provinces, met death and many others were injured at about daylight in a fearful train wreck, due to a head-on collision on the Concord division of the Boston and Maine railroad about four miles west of Canaan station. The badly injured numbered forty, some of whom, it is feared, may not survive.
 Twenty bodies have been taken from the wreck, and at least one man is missing. Fourteen of the bodies have been identified 1t is thought that a misunderstanding of orders by the crew of the freight train caused the accident.
 The seemingly simple mistake of in terpreting cipher for a number "4' caused the snufting out of all these lives. Instead of understanding that train No. 30 would be an hour and ten minutes late it is alleged that the op- orator and dispatcher at Canaan Sta ton interpreted the number as 34

Filler Crashes Into Freight.

A train of four cars. well filled with tired, sleepy excursionists. nearly all of whom had been spending the day at the fair at Sherbrooke. Que. 160 miles over the Canadian border to the north. had rounded a curve at lively speed when the headlight of a freight locomotive flashed before the eyes of the engineer. In another instant there was a crash and both engines were lying together mass of wreckage fin the ditch beside the track. The bag gage car. next to the passenger loco motive. had been driven back into the passenger coach, telescOping it and crushing the lives out of half a carload of people. At the same time nearly every one else fin that car was injured. A few escaped, but those who were fin the sleeping car in the rear were saved from death by the more sturdy qualities of their car.
 The accident occurred just as the dawn was showing in the east. The moment after it happened train hands who had escaped injury and passen- gers in the sleeping car were looking upon one of the worst wrecks ever seen in New Hampshire.
