Frightful European Railroad Disaster

One of the worst railroad accidents in
Europe in recent times occurred at Con-
itch, a station six miles southeast of Ant
werp, Belgium, on the main line at s
o'clock yesterday morning The exact
number of victims had not been deter
mined up to a late hour last night, owing
to the difficulty of removing the bodies
from the debris, but the latest estimate
places the number at 60 killed and 100 in
jured. The catastrophe appears to have
been due to defective switch, where the
main line crosses a local line. At this
point train carrying large number of
pilgrims on their way to local shrine
was standing. Into this the Antwerp
Brussels express dashed at speed of 80
miles an hour, literally leaping on top of
it. The heavy coaches Of the express
crushed the lighter train into splinters.
The sides of the express cars were torn
from the fastenings, the floors practically
thus precipitating the passen-
gers to the side of the track uninjured,
whence they fled, frenzied, across the
fields. But for this fact the death roll
would be much greater. Few of the occu-
pants of the local train escaped alive.
Those that were not killed were badly in
jured, many of them MORALLY.

100000 FOR PUBLIC BUILDING.
Brattleboro Will Have a New Post OF.
fee Before Very Long.

The omnibus public buildings bill which
passed the house of representatives last
Friday and the senate Tuesday contained
an appropriation of 100000 for a public
building and site in Brattleboro. Con-
gresham Haskins originally asked for an
appropriation of Sl25,00O for postofiice
building and court house, the supervising
architect of the treasury department hav-
ing estimated $4,000 as the cost of a
postoffice building alone including the
site. Congressman Haskins appeared twice
before the committee on public buildings
and grounds and insisted upon the larger
appropriation. The committee, however,
inasmuch as no term of United States
court was authorized by law to be held
in Brattleboro, eliminated the court house
and appropriated 100000 for postofice
building and site. In nearly every item
the committee made cut from the super
visor's estimates on the ground that the
heads of all departments, bureaus and d.
visions always cverestimate costs.
1t may be two years before work on a
government building is begun in Brattle
boro. Plans and specifications will first
have to be made by architects of the
treasury department. after a site has
ton of the building will be advertised for
~
will be done under the supervision of a
government official who is supposed to
be an architect.
Since last Friday, when it became
known that the public buildings bill had
passed the house, many people have been
discussing the question of location of the
government building. One of the places
mentioned as a desirable site is the lot on
Elliot street now occupied by the house
of DR.. III. l.. Waterman, while other
places spoken of are the Brattleboro
House lot at the corner of Main and De-
pot streets, the site of the Episcopal
houses of Dr. G. S. Pratt and Mrs. c. f.

: of our association to stand true to a
higher lava moral obligation due one
from another and from brother to bro
Their in this great cause of humani-
! ty.
IF those farmers outside of the pool
will bury greed and avarice and do
their full duty in this hour of trou-
BILE and turmoil and join hands and
hearts with our people peace, happiness
and prosperity will cover the State
and make us a united people.
The last Legislature passed several
bills which will be of great help to our
tobacco organizations, notably the bill
imposing a fine of $3.50 upon one SELL
ing or buying pooled tobacco. The buy
ing of pooled tobacco has been the chic
cause of trouble in the State, We
must look to this law for relief and
protection. feel sure that the PEN
atty imposed by the law will be suf-
ficient to stop the buying of pledged
tobacco. With stringent law upon
this point there can be absolutely no
excuse for any set of men taking the
law in their own hands to punish
men who viola's his contract with his
association.
There are thousands of tobacco grow
ers in Kentucky who have their tobac-
co pooled who are not members of the
American Society of Equity. | ask
and implOre every tobacco grower to
take membership In the Society .of
Equity. 1t is the bulwark against the
oppression Of the Tobacco Trust and
the defender Of your rights and of
your homes.
in conclusion my brothefs in E1u-
ity, our society having accomplished so
much for the welfare of the Kentucky
tobacco grower, Let us turn our atten-
ton to the conditions which surround
us and do our full duty as citizens in
helping to restore peace and harmony
among Kentuckians, never forgetting
our duty to our society but forgetting
our duty to our society, but remember
ing our own victory is not secure
when riot prevails and where civil
law is a nullity and a sham. Fratern
law is nullity and a sham.

Shocking Crime
ON AN INFANT GIRL
Brute Attempted An Assault on
Baby Girl Two Years Old
Near Central City.

Central City, March 24.-The SUI
burbs of Central City has again been
the scene of another horrible crime,
The two year old child of Della Reed
Chism was assaulted at the home of
it's mother at the Bluff just mile from
here and now is in critical condi-
ton with small hope for its recovery.
Saturday while its mother was alb
sent from home, Henry Wedding a
young man 20 years of age is ac-
cused of having entered-the house,
and after committing other indignities
to the child, attempted to commit an
assault. In order to carry out his
vile intentions he cut the child with
a knife. The mother did not reveal
the crime until Sunday, when as
Wedding passed her home, while she
was talking to Uncle Jimmy" Bash
am and others she remarked: There
is the man who cut my child" She
seemed frightened and refused to say
any more but investigation revealed
the state of affairs and she claims
that Wedding had threatened to kill
her II she told. The sheriff was no.
titled and learned that Wedding was
taking steps to leave he deputized Mr..
Tade Foley, Of South Carrollton, to
make the arrest. Mr.. Foley found
him at the home of his uncle Charlie
Whitehouse just across the river at
the South Carrollton Ferry, and
brought him to Central City. Deputy
Sheriff Charlie Blackwell took posses
sion of him here and delivered him to
the jailor of Greenville. Wedding
stoutly denies the crime. but chill
dren old enough to know, state that
they saw him. Just few weeks ago
he was accused of having shot flag
man at Henderson but was releas-
ed on account of lack of evidence.
The community is aroused and there
is strong talk of a mob dealing with
him. Guards will be placed at the
Greenyille jail to protect the man.
Wedding is the son of Park Wedding.

the Government by contractor or sub
contractor"
Continuing the memorial says:
We come to Congress hoping for a
prompt and adequate remedy for the
grievances of which we justly complain
The psychological moment has arrived
for total change of governmental pc
Icy toward the workers; TO permit it
to pass may be to invite disaster even
to our national life.
In this frank statement OF its griev-
ances the attitude of labor should not
be misinterpreted nor should it be
held as wanting in respect for our high
est law-making body.
That the workers, while smarting
under a most keen sense of injustice
and neglect turn first to Congress for
a remedy shows how greatly they still
trust in the power and willingness of
this branch of the Government to re-
store safeguard and protect their
rights.
While no member of Congress or par
ty can evade or avoid his or their own
individual or party share of responsible
ty, we aver that the party in power
must and will by labor and its sympat
izers,. be held primarily responsible
for the failure to give prompt, full and
effective congressional relief we know
to be within its power.
Speaker Cannon and Vice President
Fairbanks announced their belief that
the present Congress will pass an EN-
ployers' liability act which will meet
and overcome the unconstitutionalities
of the present law pointed out by the
Supreme Court of the United States
in a recent decision.
