TERRIBLE RAILWAY ACCIDENT.
Canadian Pacific Train Plunges Into
River and AZ Are Drowned.

Forty-eight persons are dead and
ninety-two are injured as a result of
wreck on the Canadian Pacific Rail-
road near Wildwood, Ontario. on the
Sudbury branch of the road. Two
coaches, a diner and first-class day
coach plunged from bridge across
the Spanish river Not person in
the two cars escaped. All were caught
like rats in trap. They were drown
ed in the icy waters of the river.
A few hours after the disaster the
coaches lay in the river with only
their tops showing above the ice. The
bodies of the victims of the disaster
were still in the cars.
The plunging of the diner and the
day coach into the river threw the
other coaches of the passenger train
from the track. Some of these roll
ed down steep embankment. The
cars caught fire. A number persisted
in the flames. This added to the hor-
ror of the disaster. The wreck is the
worst in the history of the Canadian
Pacific Railroad.
The wrecked train was No. Z, west
bound from Montreal to Minneapolis.
Spreading of the rails as the passen-
ger train crossed the bridge is sup
posed to have been the cause of the
catastrophe. The scene of the disas'
ter is in a desolate, sparsely settled
country. Telegraph facilities are linn
| tied. Details are hard to obtain.

CHICAGO.

R. G. Dun's Weekly Review of Chi
CATO Trade says;
The failure record includes an in
creased aggregate of liabilities and the
volume of payments through the bank
does not rise as expected, but weather
conditions are less severe and some
recovery appears in the general activ-
ity. Factories are now obtaining nee
esary fuel and freight movements are
less delayed.
THE markets for the leading food
stuffs indicate moderate transactions.
Operations are conservative in view of
the feeling against high prices. Lead
ing retail trade reflects seasonaale
progress and the January clearances
have been successful in ordinary nee
essaries.
Adverse weather is to some extent
responsible for slow collections, but an
improvement in remittances win fol-
low with normal transportation and
prompt deliveries.
Bank elearings, $3.50, are
4.5 per cent over those of the CORE
spending week in 1909. and compare
with $22S,049.573 in 1908.
Failures reported in the Chicago
district number 80, as against So last
week, % in 1909 and SO in 1908, Those
with liabilities over $4,000 number 10,
as against Z last week, Z in 1909 and
16 in 1905"

NEW YORK.

Trade reports are of the usual mid
winter character, rejecting widespread
inclement weather. and also consid-
cradle unsettlement due to commodity
price fluctuations. Outdoor activities,
such as building, are, of course. retard-
ed, and bad roads affect country trade.
Good spring orders are being received
by jobbers. Retail trade varies with
the sections reporting.
Reports as to collections are irreg-
ular. 1t is noted that a good deal Of
money is tied up at present in grain,
which has been in transit for some
time.

SCARED GIRLS LEAP TO DEATH
Five Philadelphians Die as Result of
Panic and Fire.

Four girls and man leaped to their
death the other day in panic caused
by fire in four-story factory building
in Philadelphia Five others receiv-
ed probably fatal injuries, and many
more were hurt Nearly all of the
dead and severely injured were en-
ployed in the shirt waist factory of
Joseph Chachkin, on the fourth floor.
Chachkin was injured, one of his
daughters is dead, and another dying.
His force of operators was greatly re-
duced owing to the shirt waist strike.
Otherwise the number of fatalities
probably would have been greater The
flames originated in the elevator shaft.

Chachkin's factory operatives be-
came panic stricken and many jumped
from windows Men on the street
spread blankets and an awning to
break their falls. but in the srloke
which filed the narrow street many
fell to the pavement before these i'm
provised fire nets could be extended
for them. The building was equipped
with fire escapes and fire ropes. One
man, instead of lowering the rope and
sliding down it, jumped from the win
dow with the loose end in his hands

luton for the Manchurian problem the
naturalization of the railroads in Man

patton in such a scheme. The super

DISASTROUS FLOODS IN FRANCE.
Loss of Life Is Small, but Damage
to Property Is Colossal.

20 property is Colossal.
A large portion of France is under
water and chaos is the order through
out the flooded districts. Fears of out
breaks of epidemics are entertained,
and the situation is looked upon as
one of the greatest gravity. While the
loss of life thus far has been small,
the property losses are colossal. An
estimate of the damage, owing to the
widespread confusion, is impossible.
The calamity is national.
There are reports of improvement in
few provinces, but others are cut off
from communication Many towns and
villages are completely isolated.
The floods throughout the country
continue their devastation, but Paris
and vicinity seem to be the worst hit
of all the affected distRicts, The city
faces a complete tie-up and damage
grows each hour. The Seine rose
three-quarters of an inch in hour.
Famine is threatened in certain dis
tricts. In one place the bakers are
without -four and in another the
butchers are unable to obtain meat
Authorities everywhere are busy de-
vising remedies to meet the situation
The government has voted 100000
for the relief of sufferers. In many
places homeless hundreds are living
in tents, which, because of the chill
rain, afford inadequate shelter. The Red
Cross Society is organizing aid for the
sufferers. Subscriptions have been
opened and the theaters are arranging
benefits.

ATTACKS HARD COAL COMPANIES
Government Brief in the Anthracite
Case Filed at Philadelphia.

The governments brief in its suit to
break up the alleged anthracite coal
trust was filed in the United States
Circuit Court in Philadelphia the 9TH
er day by William S. Gregg, special
assistant to the Attorney General. The
suit was brought in April, 1907, and
the governments case was prepared by
]. Carroll Todd and j. G. McReynolds.
The three years that have interviewed
were taken up with the examination of
witnesses for both sides. 1t is con-
tended by the government that all the
defendants have long been parties to
general combination and conspiracy
which stiles competition and obstructs
trade and commerce in anthracite coal
and that they have monopolized the
trade. The government asks the court
to enjoin this alleged monopoly and
to enjoin the defendants from carry
ing out the contract with the so-called
Independent companies by which the
latter turn over their product to the
larger companies for IS per cent of the
tidewater selling price.

THE NATION RISES TO
LOWER FOOD PRICES
Lawmakers Join Women and Clergy
in Seeking Cause of Exactions
in Necessities.
PROTEST MEETINGS PLANNED
Department of Commerce and Labor
Starts observation-disclosures
to Boycott Dealers.

A mighty wave of protest against
the increased cost of living is sweep
ing over the country. This wave,
unique III many particulars, is gather
ing force rs it rolls and surges from
East to West I'D from North to South.
Already its force is powerful; it prom
ises to become irresistible From per-
sons of high degree and low degree
this protest is elnanating. Women and
women's clubs-a mighty factor in
any popular move-have taken the
matter up with a will Clergymen-
Catholic, Protestant and Hebrew alike
bishops, archbishops and a cardinal,
are inveighing against the tremendous
increase in the cost of things neces-
sary to feed families and sustain life.
Antitrust combinations are being
formed; men, women and children in
different sections of the country are
taking pledges to abstain from meat
and other articles of diet until the
price shall have been lowered. The
national House of Representatives has
been asked to order an investigation
INTO the whole question and the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor al
ready is making an inquiry into the
subject
The Attorney General of Missouri is
planning an investigation into the high
prices of meat and has asked other
Mississippi Valley states to join him
IN his work. A resolution has been in
troduced into the Ohio Legislature
calling upon the people of the State to
abstain from eating meat for the next
sixty days. These are just a few of the
ways in which this mighty, almost
countrywide protest against an intan-
g1ble something that has forced up
prices of necessities and Injuries has
taken being.
Women of the country are most en-
ergetic in the fight which has been be-
gun. Women, upon whom devolves the
work of supplying the table and of
supplying good, nourishing food for
hungry little mouths, have looked ask
ance at the ever decreasing supply in
the face of increased expenditures and
are ready and willing to join any move
ment that promises to remedy present
conditions
President Taft commends the aims Of
the National Anti-Food Trust League.
