OVERWHELMED BY
AN AVALANCHE
Part of Town, Two Passenger Trains
and Scores Of People Buried Under
SnowsIde

Everett. Wash. March 3-The ex-
tent OF the horror grows further
details are received Of the disaster that
overwhelmed the two Great Northern
passenger trains yesterday when an
avalanche swept the trains and a pOr-
ton of the town of Wellington at the
west side of the Cascade tunnel down
the mountain side. 1t is known that
fifty lives We're lost when the slide
buried the cars cOntainin seventy
sleeping persons over the narrow ledge
70 the bottom Of the canyon 200 feet
below.
The last report says twenty five
more are missing. The complete list
dig the bodies out of the wreckage.
The noise from the snowslide was
heard throughout the valley.
Screams and cries for help coming
from the bottom Of the canyon indi-
cate that many of the imprisoned We're
still alive. Relief trains We're dispatch
ed to the scene. Owing to a previous
slide which blocked the road and swept
away portions of the track. the rescue
trains can get no further than Scenic,
several miles distant from the scene Of
the avalanche. From Scenic the res
cuers make their way over the snow.
One of the trains. the express from
Spokane, had been stalled in the drift
of snow since last Thursday. The
other train. which is known as the
tranSCOntinental express, was at the
other end of the drift. Between them
were four electric motor engines. op-
rating snow plows and diggers. man
ned by number of hands The entire
outfit was swept into the canyon. The
private car of Superintendent O'Eeill
was attached to the express train. The
avalanche was about half Il mile in
length and swept everything on the
mountain before it, exposing the bare
rocks.
According to the reports given out
by the railroad people there was not
as many passengers on the trains when
the avalanche overwhelmed them as
was at first thought. many of those on
the express having tired of the long
wait at the drift and made their way
over the mountain trails to nearby
stations.

SWIFTER THAN STEED
OF STEAM AND STEEL
The White Horse Won in the Race Of
J. A. HoIIoman to the Bedside of
His Dying Child

Atlanta, March "a heartbrea king
race against time came to a tragic end
in Atlanta last night, when J. A. Hol-
loman of Jacksonville, Fla, who had
traversed two states in d headlOng
ride on a special train to reach the
bedside of his golden haired daughter,
who lay dying in Nashville, received
a telegram that death had been more
swift than he.
Mr.. Holloman, who was formerly
news editor OF the Atlanta Journal.
later managing editor Of the Jackson
vile Times Union, and now one of the
most prominent turpentine and lum-
ber men in the South, received wire
yesterday at noon, saying his beautiful
daughter, Miss Lena Holloman. who is
well remembered in Atlanta as a little
girl, was dying at a college for young
women in Nashville, Tenn.
He Immediately summoned his fam
lily physician DR.. w. II. Stinson of
Jacksonville, chartered a special train,
consisting of an engine, baggage coach
and Pullman car, and left Jacksonville
at 1:2F in the afternoon. The division
superintendent of the railroad knew
the circumstances and gave the train
the right of way over everything on
the tracks that afternoon. The mao
race against death began. After maxi
ing incredible time. the train reached
Macon at TAO o'clock over the G. S. e
F.. road. where it was switched to the
Central of Georgia.
Then began the wild ride toward
Atlanta through the night. The en-
gineer, the fireman. and every man on
board knew what lay a the goal. and
knew that another racer was speeding
toward it faster. perhaps. than they.
AS the throttle was thrown wide open
and the mighty drivers rolled along the
rails mile after mile through the dark
ness, there was not one man on board
but felt the presence of that flying
form. riding Invisible upon the winds,
astride the great. white winged horse
no human eye has ever looked upon
and lived.
At 10:1 Is p. m. the train reached At
lanta. where the w. and A. manage
ment had made arrangements to rush
1t on to Nashville, but telegram was
waiting there telling Mr. Holloman
that the race was ended.
Death had won.

EUROPE IN Hook !
And There Will Be No
War for Many Years
Is the Opinion Of Pres. Jordan
Of Stanford University.
"All Civilized Nations Are Owned
or Controlled"

Chicago, Dec. 2G-All Europe IS in
hook to its Uncle" therefore there will
be no war for many years to come be-
cause the money lenders viii not per-
init anything which will impair the
loans they have made.
Briefly these are the conclusions Of
David Starr Jordan, president of Lee
land Stanford University, as he de-
liveIed them last night in a lecture on
THE Old Ueace With Velvet Sandaled
Feet at Abraham Lincoln Center.
"All civilized nations are owned or
controlled" Dr. Jordan said, "for they
say there is a difference between own
ing and controlling a Railroad though
some of US cannot quite grasp the dis
tinctlon.
THE men who make the war loans
control all the civilized nations The
Spitzenberger is not controlled. Neither
Is the Fiji. The 'Cncles' of the kings
control the others. Emperors and Kings
and Parliaments may not declare war

or even to right wrong until they
have secured the permission Of their
Uncle

is grave danger that the war dsbt will
be doubled. Europe's war debt is twen-
ty-six billions of dollars, one-third OF
all the money IN the world is due on
the war debt of Europe alone. The
Rothschilds and other money lending
families absolutely control the. situ-
alton.
Nine-tenths OF the war scares in Eu-
rope and elsewhere are made by crafty
statesmen and yellow press to divert
the attention of the people from re-
forms they are demanding.
When the powerful OF earth find
Themselves hard pressed by the people
they issue a call to the mob to go off
somewhere to plunder and murder for
the mob is All ready to Join in the man
hunt and they fight until the people
forget what they wanted.
THE spending of money for arma-
nent, the borrowing of enormous sums
and shouldering the debt upon future
generations, to be taken III taxes from
the peasants is something more than a
question of finance--it is a moral uieS-
ton
THE placing OF u tyrInouS burder on
the poor of future generations is only
one Of the indictments to be drawn
against war"

Presidents message. The committee
will meet shortly before Congress re-

One OF the questions to be discussed
is the procedure TO be followed in
preparing legislation to carry out the
Presidents idea Of fortifyinE the
canal. In addition to the committee
on interoCeanic canals, the committees
on military affairs and foreign affairs
will nave something 10 say Of the
proposed step, as IL affects both the
military policy and international re

may be introduced is expected. but

some opposition to President Taft's
suggestion that within certain limits
tho President be authorized to fix the
tolls ard adjust them to what seems
to be commercial necessity is also
expected, though there is no way Of
JUDGING its extent. Both bills will

Congress meets.

its purpose the prohibition Of the

competition between the Land and

The passing Of such : measure would
put an end to the Pacific Mail Steam

coast. 1t would affect numerous otlleE
lines ON the Atlantic coast and the

OF which are under tho control or

the canal, it would assure an open
field for steamship lines and unrc-

than that recommended by President
Taft is hardly likely to come up at

RED TAPE IN CRIME IN FRANCE.
Mayor and Several Others Watch Muir
derer at Work.

Paris. Dec 2G.-An extraordinary
story Of rural police methods comes
from Pontcarrc, d little summer re-
sort situated on the edge of the Forest
of Arirainvilliers. where 8 tramp muir
dercd an old woman the proprietor Of
a small inn. Her neighbor, hearing the
old WomanS screams, instead of Civ
ing tho alarm, went off to fetch her
husband in village nearly q mile
away, leaving tie woman to her fate.
The husband thought ,he had better
tell the local watchman, and went off
to the latters house. The Waterman in
his turn decided he must inform the
mayor, who was working at Edouard
de Rothschild's chateau, which is in
the naighborhood. The mayor jmmedi-
ately set ont for the scene, accom-
panied by the watchnlan, a commercial
traveller from Paris. who happened to
be in the village, and q local wineahop
keeper.
Through the windows of the muir
dered womans inn they could see the
murderer ritiing the upstairs rooms,
but the mayor refused to act until the
gendarmes arrived. When the tramp
came downstairs the party saw him
stepping over his victim, who lay dead
in 9 pool of blood. Only after the
guardians Of public order had watched
the violation of the law for 90 minutes
did the watchman decide to take ac-
ton, crying. open in the name OF the
law and beating Oh the door
But the murderer opened a back
window and escaped easily into the
black depths of the forest. He has not
been captured
