TWO MEET DEATH.
WRECK OF A NEW YORK CEN
TRIAL TRAIN AT osSINING, NY.
ENGINEER AND FIREMAN WERE
BURIED IN THE WREkAGE
AND KILLED.

Ossining, n. Y. The engineer
aad fireman of the Adirondack
and Montreal express on the New
York Central railroad were killed and
five other persons, four of them pas
sengers, injured when the train,
northbound, sideswiped a freight en-
gine mile south of this village last
night. The dead:
William Kirk, engineer.
James Armitage, fireman
Both men were buried in the wreck
age. None of the passengers was dan
gerously injured, though two sus-
tanned injuries necessitating their re-
moval to hospital here.
There are three tracks at the point
where the accident occurred A
freight train that preceded the ex-
press had been switched from the
main northbound track to the middle
track to allow the express to pass and
was proceeding slowly as the express
approached The snow and conse-
quent slippery condition of the rails
is supposed to have been responsible
for the accident, for the engineer of
the freight was unable to stop his
train before the locomotive had taken
a switch and half crossed the main
track directly in the path of the pas
senger train.
The express engine struck the
freight engine and rolled over The en-
bankment. The coaches following
were defailed, but did not overturn
The passengers were hurled about in
side Of the cars, most of their injuries
being in the nature of bruises and
cuts.

An Industrial Crisis: When?

IN the current discussion as to the
outlook for continued prosperity vary
ing opinions are expressed by finan-
ciers, railroad men, manufacturers
and college presidents. The weight
of judgment seems to be on the side
of continued prosperity. This view is
sustained by the fact of a power to
consume equaling the power to pro.
duce. The power to consume rests
chiefly upon wages earned and paid.
Employment and wages are at high
water mark VIII these conditions
continue? That would seem to be the
main question. Intimately related to
that question is the question whether
and when wages and industrial pro-
duction are to be unsettled by tariff
reduction and reciprocity arrange
ments designed to increase foreign
competition with American labor and
industry. Given the date when tariff
revision downward and reciprocity in
competing products shall have been
definitely determined upon, and it will
be much easier to guess at the date
when the present prosperity will be
followed by an industrial and com.
mercial crisis.

Four-fifths of the operatives in the
Japanese mills are women, probably
due to the fact that they will work for
less than the men, who can do better
outside. Men are only employed when
absolutely necessary, such as for
bosses, loom fixers. the heavier card
room work, etc. Weaving in Japan
is almost entirely a woman's job as

The tax ASSESSOR appointed by
the County commissioners have an
important duty to perform, and in
all cases they should cndeavOr to be
equal to the occasion. The position
is one that carriesgreat responsibility
with it--a responsibility that should
not be lightly regarded. All proper
ty should be assessed for taxation
on as uniform q basis as Is possible.
There should be no extremes either
way. Some persons favor IL high
valuation while others prefer a low
valuation. In our opinion the as
SCISSORS should strike happy medi-
um, while we believe high valuation
and low tax rate would be better.
The individual tax payer would not
be out of pocket any more and the
showing made would certainly be
more favorable to the wealth of the
