Special Correspondence Of The Star.
WINCHESTER, Va. November IL, 1910.
John Paul of Harrisonburg has been
acknowledged as the chief adviser Of
the Taft administration in the matter
Of distributing federal patronage in
the seventh congressional district Of
Virginia, as a result of this week s
election. Mr.. Paul. who is a lawyer,
and son Of the late United States Judge
John Paul. was nominated for Congress
by one faction of the republicans. and
Hugh S. Lupton Of Frederick county
was chosen by another element. The
state committee decided to let both
men run. and recognize the man who
received the largest number Of votes
Paufs majority over Lupton was
1871 in the district. He had already
been appointed referee by Postmaster
General Hitchcock to supplant John
Acker OF Rockingham county, and now
that Paul has beaten Lupton there is
much rejoicing among the Paul faction.
The reelection Of Representative James
Hay by the democrats was a foregone
conclusion, even before any nomina-
tons were made, and although defeated
for Congress, Mr.. Pauls friends say he
has gained a great victory. He is now
recognized as being regular" party
man. while the others are classed as
Observation-Disclosures. The result of
the test Of strength, however. has by
no means settled the numerous fights
In the republican ranks, and the down.
make 1t as uncomfortable for their OPP
moments As possible.

Railroads Inclined to COnpTo-

New York, Jan 24--Although con-

Gon were continued among the en-
ployes' organisat,o2s the real work
cf arranging ststcment of the differ
ences between the Eastern lines and
Jheir men will net be begun for a

The meetings of the last few days
were arranged with no expectation on
either side that conclusive results
would be attained. The demands of
the conductors and trainmen now hav-
ing been set before the roads in black
and white basis for further negotia
tions along definite lines has been es
tablished. These are to be entered
into in earnest in a few days. Each
road will take up the question with its
own men.
Although some of the companies are
less inclined than others to meet theil
men half way a general willingness is
shown to continue the conferences al
length, with the expectation that in
the end concessions will be made te
the dissatisfied employees.

DECREASE IN SALES NOTED
New York Dealers Complain of Eff

New York, JAM 24.-Although NO
general boycott on meat has been in.
stituted in New York by an organized
body retail meat dealers in every sec
tion of the city are loud in their walls
over the noticeable decrease in their
sales of meat. The retail dealers
boast, however, that what they lose
by the falling off in sales they more
than make up by the increased price
OF what they do SELL
1t is this very fact, the boycotters
declare, that will lead to a general
movement against meat in New York
city that will car into the shade any
of the boycotts thus far started.
Plans for general meat strike are
under way. at a meeting of the Con

Chicago, Jan. 21.-Following secret

Kappes, real estate man, who are

ing the price of real estate.
Prosecutor Wayman, who, with his

ST RE Are DEAD

Y eek Increasing.
LIKE RATS In A TRAP

Coaches Hurled From Bridge Go
Through Thick Ice and Occupants
Have No Chance for Escape-OnIy
Eight Persons Saved From the Sub
merged Cars, All the Others on
Board Being Drowned.
North Bay, Ont, Jan. 24.-Esti-
mates of the number of persons killed
when four cars of a Canadian Pacific
passenger train plunged down an en-
bankment into the ice covered Span
ish river vary from forty to fifty. The
official list of known dead issued by
the railroad company numbers eight
and the injured twenty-four.
The cars are still buried in the river
with only their ventilators showing
above the broken ice and the number
of dead which they contain may not
be known tor several days, although
the railway company is making efforts
to raise the sunken cars. Eighteen of
those killed were in The second class
car and most of them were foreigners,
whose names are difficult to ascertain.
It is known that there were sixty pas
sengers in the first class car and 1T is
believed there are five bodies in the
dining car OF the injured four died
and others are in a dying condition.
The train when it left Sudbury car
ried in the neighborhood of 100 souls.
1t was made up as follows: Engine,
mail and baggage car, express, second
class coach, colonist, first class coach,
dining car and Pullman.
Spanish river is thirty-eight miles
from Sudbury. The railroad at this
point cuts into the side of hill and
crosses the river over an iron bridge.
Going at Fast Rate OF Speed.
The bridge was approached at fast
rate of speed and tie engine, mail,
baggage and express cars were on the
structure. From reasons not yet as
certained the trucks of the second
class coach jumped the track. The
coach struck the bridge abutment and
was split in two as clean as though
with huge cleaver
The momentum of the train carried
the half of the second class coach, the
coionist car, first class car and dining
car down the bank and into the river
The Pullman fell over on it's side near
the tracks.
Caught like rats in trap every pas
senger on the half of the second class
coach, colonlst car and first class
coach was drowned and only the mos1
heroic efforts saved eight persons from
the diner.
With such force were the cars
hurled down the bank that they cut Q
wide swath in the twelve-inch thick
ness of ice which covered the river
Even If any persons succeeded IL
, breaking through window they were
almost surely trapped under the ice
and never had a chance for theil
lives. This is true of half of the sec
ond class car, the colonist car ant
the first class car. from which only
two are known to have escaped.
