FATAL WRECK ON

London, January ss.AOne OF the most
serious railway accidents In England
since the disaster to the steamer train
at Salisbury In July. 1906, when many
Americans lost their lives. occurred at
Stoats Nest station, near Londan, on
the London and Brighton railway this
afternoon. Eight dead and about &c
injured were taken from the wreck.
Two third-class cars and Pullman
of a train from Brighton, travelling at
a speed of 40 miles an hour. crashed
into the station. The third-class
coaches were completely wrecked and
a part of the building was demolished.
The Pullman was thrown violently into
the air. but was comparatively little
damaged. Its passengers, except with
minor injuries, escaped. Robert j.
Wynne. the former American consul
general at London, who was In the
Pullman, escaped uninjured and helped
to assist the wounded.
Mr.. Wynne thought that the breaking

headquarters of which were in Marion. O.
This ID the first conviction OF an or
ganized band of Black Hands. With
this result the government officials de-
clare. they believe they have effectually
broken up Black Hand operations In the
middle west and have taken step to-
ward putting a quietus on Malta methods
throught the United States.
BY prevailing upon Italians to testify
who had received notwithstanding let
ters and had paid money the officials be-
lieve they have destroyed the strength
of the system which relied principally
upon the terrorized silence of the vic
Tins.
The defendants were hurled away imme-
diately after sentence to guard against
any outbreak of which some intimation
had been given. Their removal was quiet
ly effected. Kept in the federal building
until train time, they were taken in
charge of United States Marshal H. d.
Davis and eight deputies to a private
car. from which they will not be re-
moved until the prison Is reached. This
plan had been kept secret by the Off
cials.
Attorneys for the principal defendants
said today that they intend to file petitions

defendants who were granted new trials

IMPORTANT LETTERS

Witness Tells of His Dealings With

Charges Are Supported BY
Many Documents.

Washington, January 9.-Louis r. Glav-
is concluded his testimony before the
Ballinger- Pinchot congressional investi-
eating committee late tonight. He will be
recalled at the resumption of the hearing
Monday afternoon for cross-examination
by any of the persons against whom he
has made charges.
CLAWS last day on the stand was full
of interest. II developed the animus
which long has existed between the land
office and the forestry bureau, and the
recruitment the land office people felt
when CLAWS called in the forestry" as
they termed IT,
The witness also declared that Repre-
sentative McLachlan of California and
Representative Kinkaid of Nebraska were
interested in Alaskan claims, and that
Mr.. Ballinger, after being commissioner
of the land office, had acted as attorney
for Mr.. Kinkaid. CLAWS also asserted
that Mr.. Ballinger had suggested to him
not to pursue an investigation against
Congressman McI-achlan, saying there
had been too much of that sort of thing
in the past Then toward the close of his
testimony CLAWS was asked the direct
question If he thought that Secretary Bal
linger and Commissioner of the Land
Office Dennet were In league to do wrong
In the Alaskan cases He replied:
Well l thought the cases would be
better protected with them out OF the
way"
Claws attack seemed to center more to-
day upon Commissioner Dennet. He said
