Failed to Throw Switch.

The wreck was due, it is said, to the
failure of an operator to throw a switch.
The westbOund freight had received or
ders to meet the passenger at the western
limits of the Bellaire yards and was NOV
ing slowly along the siding.
Where the wreck occurred there is a
sharp curve which prevents the engineers
of eastbOund trains from seeing more than
few feet ahead. The passenger train
swung around the curve rapidly, being
three hours late, and should have gone
on in safety on the main line. The switch
to the siding had not been turned and the
train shot into the freight. The worst
damage was done TO the smoker, which
was telescOped by the baggage car. Every
occupant of the smoker was injured or
killed The passengers in the day coach
and the two PullmanS were tumbled from
their seats but not seriously hurt.

BURNS
AT LUMBERP0RT
Hotel Mccarty is Saved Only by Great
Efrort-Aged Lady Has
Marrow Escape.

The house at Lumberport occupied
by Miss Mary Cole, an aged lady
who has lived alone for many years,
caught fire from papers with which
she was working. In a short time
the building was mass of flames.
It was only by great effort that
the Mccarty hotel was saved, as
there is only narrow alley separat-
ing the two houses. The entire con-
tents of the house were burned and
Miss Cole barely escaped herself,
having been carried out by one Of
the members of the Guy Bros. min
strel troupe, who were stopping at
the hotel.
The Mccarty hotel was slightly
damaged, but the loss was covered
by insurance.

Senator Thorn. of Harrison county.
and now member of state senate who
was one of the escorts of the dead
body of Senator w. D. Talbot, from

here Saturday morning, made this
office brief but very pleasant visit.
1t was the first time the writer ever
had the pleasure of meeting this
learned and atfable gentleman, and

him. He is quite power in the
state senate, and has offered many
good measures to that body which
failed to materialize, not from any
lack of energy on his part, however.
His course has been Straightforward
and commendable, and the people
who sent him there should feel
proud Of him.

JEROME WANTS
A COMMISSION
BY Jerome in Thaw Case is Now
Definitely shown BY the
Questions Asked.
ny Associated Press.l

NEW YORK. March District
Attorney Jerome's intention of ap-
plying for commission of lunacy to
examine Thaw seemed definitely es-
tablished today during the continu.
ance of his cross-examination of DR..
Evans.
DR.. Evans stated he believed Thaw
had been suffering from adolescent
insanity in 1908 and at the time Of
his marriage, April 4. 1905, and
that when he killed White, June rs,
1906, he was a victim of acute and
recurrent attacks of the same men
tai malady.
Evans was more definite in his
answers today and was induced to
make these statements with positive
ness. Evans would not classify
adolescent insanity as chronic in
Thaw's case and said he had known
cases of this form of mental un-
soundness to clear up over night.

MINERS STRIKE AT DOLA
FOR INCREASE IN WAGES
Eighty Foreign Miners Go Out at
Short Line Coal Company's
Coal Mine at Dola.
ADyANoE or FIVE GENTS
ON Each Mine Car, or From 20 to
75 Cents Day Each, is Demand
Made By the Striking Miners.


Some eighty coal miners are on a
strike at the Dola mine of the Short
Line Coal company, and operations
there have been completely suspend
ed.
The mine has been quite busy of
late. good shipments being constants
ny made and the mine authorities
give out the information regarding
the strike that the miners, mostly
Slays and other foreign nationalities
were persuaded by some disturbing
element to demand an increase of
wages. The demand was based on
the assertion that the company was
making better money than formerly.
The increase. asked for is five cents
ON each mine car, which means a
daily raise of wages of the miners
from 25 to rs cents each. The com
pany claims it pays the standard
wage and refuses to grant the in
crease demanded by the miners.
AS yet there has been no clash or
conflict, the miners simply refusing
TO work, but. unless they return to
work the company viii proceed to
eyict them from the company houses
and property.
Representatives of the company
went from the main Office here Fri
day morning to confer with the min
ers and to prepare for their eviction,
should they longer refuse to return
to work at the old scale. Trouble Is
expected to ensue. when efforts TO
eyict them are Instituted.
Upon the arrival OF officials of the
company at the mine Friday the
men went back to work and the
strike is ended without having been
accompanied by bloodshed or other
trouble.
Some adjustment was made but it
is understood the full demand for an
increase was not granted.
