Cadiz, Ohia, Oct 14.-Taft's special
train met with another accident today.
1t occurred on the spur running from
the Pennsylvania railroad at Cadiz
junction to CadiZ. While the train
was climbing steep grade the front
trucks of one of the engines jumped
the rails and went humping along the
track for two car lengths before the
train was brought to stop. On one
side of the track there was an embank.

would have been serious.

Negro Death Rafe SHH
 Far Ahead Of Birth Rafe
WHITE DEATH RATE IS JUST HALF THE WHITE BIRTH RATE. ONLY 54 DEATHS FROM TYPHOID FEVER LAST YEAR.

More people died last year than were born alive, i'm Birmingham. While there were 1903 live births, the total deaths amounted to 1145. This was due to the fact that the negroes are dying off at far greater rate than they are being born. feature which has been noted in numerous reports of Health Officer Hark- ness and was more than ever remark able this time
 While the death rate among negroes was one-third larger than the negro birth rate, the death rate among whites was just half that of the white birth rate. Such figures as there, widespread and continued many years, would have some thing to do with the solution of the race problem.
 The negroes were killed out by tuber- culosis, diseases of like nature, and vio- lence. Typhoid fever, although epidemic here last summer, claimed only 54, which was less than died from tuberculosis, pneumonia and intestinal disorder among children. Here is the tabluated list:

 OF MERCY HOME
Won 6ernewitz Case Comes Up Apain In Filing of Ex Parte Habeas
 Corpus.

The Carrie Won Bernewitz case has ap- peared again in the filing of ex parte habeas corpus proceedings for Herman Won Bernewitz, Jr., before Circuit Court Judge A. C. Lane On the petition of Mrs. Bernewitz, the mother of the child, praying for an order requiring the sher- fir to place Herman Won Bernewtz, Jr in the Mercy Home for safekeeping pending further hearing of the cause Judge Lane has issued an order requiring the sheriff to assume the custody of the child and deliver him to the Mercy Home to be retained there until further or ders are made.
 It will be recalled that Mrs. Won Berne- witz was wanted in Ohio on a charge of bigamy and extradition papers were got ten out against her. Habeas corpus pro- ceedings were instituted upon her arrest and upon a hearing of the case Judge Lane held the evidence against Mrs. von Bernewitz insufficient and released her The question of the possession of the child arose and MT. Won Bernewitz was given the care of the little boy as bailee for the sheriff. It seems that he carried the child to Cincinnati, out of the juris- diction of the court, but was ordered to bring 1t back, and he complied with the courts order.
 The writ of habeas corpus for the child was placed in the hands of the sheriff yesterday and was executed im- media tely.

 ter Held Up.

The story of thievery, burglary and highway robbery for the past few days, not including that in which the detective was killed, is a record quite extraordi- nary. It might begin with the bold rob- bery of Greek store at Avenue B and Eighteenth street last night, when a big black negro entered. threw his gun in the face of the Greek, and calmly re- moved all the money from the cash drawer which totaled $16.
 Another similar bold highway robbery was narrated yesterday afternoon in po- lice court. It was proven to the satisfac- ton of the judge that Francis Taylor, a woman of the colored stripe had sudden ly become a buclxing broncho, threw a gun into the face of John Lumpkin, made him hand over s2Oo. and Tight out down alley B. Her brother, Frank Tay- Tor, then bounced on the back of the said Lumpkin and allowed the "highwoman'' to escape.
 Lumpkin was a porter on a Pullman car, and had been saving his money fearing the banks would fail One hun dred and eighty-one dollars of the stolen money was recovered and two Taylors were bound over to the criminal court without bond

R. A. SMITH DENIES
 COOPER CHARGES
MARION COUNTY DEPUTY MAR SHAL IS IN TOWN AND MAKES CHARGES AGAINST FORMER MARSHAL.

R. A. Smith, deputy United States mar shal for Marion county, against whom such startling charges were hurled by Judge D. N. Cooper in the Davidson com mittee meeting Friday, was in the city yesterday, and issued warm denial, pre- ferring charges in turn against Judge Cooper.
 This is what he said: q noticed in Sat urday's Age-Herald an interview from Jucge Cooper in which he said:
 |" I have received Information from a prominent politician of Marion county that R. A. Smith, deputy marshal, stated that he had control of the patronage of Marion county; and that he had control of the appointment of bailiffs; that he could get men on the federal grand jury
 The understanding was that these men to share in these benefits were to attend the Marion county convention, and there support Taft delegates to the national convention.'
 T want to say that there was not word of truth in 1t. I have never asked for bailiff appointment, and never had anything to do with filling the jury box except one time, when deputy marshal under Judge Cooper himself.
 My county indorsed Taft by vote of 192 to ?, but the convention was not dom mated by officeholders, there being only four officeholders in the convention.
 Cooper has been an officeholder ever since he came to Marion county, and until tthis time he has always been delegate to the national convention, but was disap- pointed on this occasion. I want to say that it has always, and recently, been his policy to use his position as an office holder to influence voters, but he should not judge others by himself"
