WRECK.
ExPREssDASHES IATOLOCAL
Most Of the Victims Were Pilgrims

Scenes.


Antwerp, May 22.-One OF the worst
railroad accidents in Europe In recent
times occurred at Contich, station
six miles southeast OF this city on
the main line at. eight O'Clock Thurs
day morning. The exact number Of
victims had not been determined up
to late Thursday night, owing to the
dimculty OF removing the bodies from
the debris, but the latest estimate
places the number at 90 killed and lVe
wounded.
The catastrophe appears to have
been due to Q defective switch where
the main line crosses local line. At
this point Q train carrying q large
number OF pilgrims on their way to
q local shrine, was standing. Into this
the Antwerp Brussels express dashed
at speed OF 90 miles an hour, literal
ly leaping ON top Of 1t. The heavy
coaches OF the express crushed the
lighter train into splinters.
The sides Of the express cars were
torn from their fastenings, the floors
practically collapsing, thus precipitat
ing the passengers to the side OF the
track uninJured, whence they ned,
frenzied, across the nelds. But for
this TACT the death roll would be much
greater Few OF the occupants OF the
local train escaped alive. Those that
were not killed were badly injured,
many Of them MORALLY.
The rescuers, even the doctors, who
were hardened to such scenes, were
sickened at the sight that met their

TRIs LOOKS LIKE TRREAT
THE PRESIDENT MAY VETO PUB
\ Lie BUILDING Bl-L q
Has Requested Secretary ccrteIyou to
Prepare Report on the
Measure.

Washington, May 22.President
Roosevelt already has taken notice
Of the S32,OO0.OOO public building bill
although that measure Is still in con
ference between the two houses Of
congress. He Thursday asked Score
tary Cortelyou to prepare . report on
the measure to guide him in determin.
ing whether to sign or veto II. Mr..
Cortelyou is asked to include in his
report, first, whether the condition Of
the public funds justifles so large an
expenditure for public buildings at this
time; second, the amount Of future
expenditures which will be made nee
essary to complete the new projects
authorized in the measure, and third,
an opinion based on the expert judg-
ment Of the supervising architect Of
the treasury as the necessity for each
OF the projects provided for
That there is connection between
the presidents desire to be fully In
formed as to the public building bill
and his desire to have passed an anti
Injunction bill and also his desire to
have bills passed appropriating for
ocean mail steamers, is declared to be
most obvious. 1t is conceded that no
measure passed at this session is
more toothsome to members of both
houses than the public building bill.
The prospect Of having this bill vetoed
would cause emphatic concern and
alarm. Meanwhile the president is
continuing his personal work with
members to induce action on the anti.
Injunction proposition and to persuade
house members that the senate sub
sidy provision contained in the post.
office appropriation bill should be &C.
cepted. The report, which Secretary
Cortelyou will lose no time in prepar.
Ing, will undoubtedly be convincing
along its designed lines. @
