Spain Breaks Win the Pom.

There Is a serious rupture between the
government of Spain and the Vatican.
spain asked for a conference looking
toward a modification of the concordat
the arrangement by which the Roman
Catholic church is established as the state
religion Of Spain The Pope refused, I'M
less the government would recall the per-
mission it recently gave the Protestants
in Spain to display religious insignia at
the places of worship. This Premier Can
alejas with the authority of King Alton
so. refused to do, and recalled the Span
ish minister At the Vatican. The Vatican
representative at Madrid has been re-
called and relations are severed. There is
much toment in the country The cleri-
calls are being melted to make trouble
for the government, and the Carlist pre-
tender, Don Jamie. has issued a mani
festo to his followers that may mean an
attempt to gain the throne For some
years past there has been growing diff
ference between Spain and Rome AL
fonso, the young monarch, has desired
to lioeralize the country in many respects
and to allow religious freedom. Under the
law Protestant bodies have not been per-
mitted to build churches to look like such,
and could not display signs to the public.
The monastic orders have held much OF
the property, to an oppressive degree.
The same tendency that led France to
dissolve the concordat and suppress the
orders has made Roadway in Spain and
the present Canalejas ministry is in full
sympat thy with it and determined to put
the program into effect.

Ennlneer Clifford Injured.

Last sunday forenoon was an anxious
one with many residents Of Bellows Falls,
friends of Engineer T.. L. Clifford of the
Boston X Maine railroad. Early in the
morning the rumor became prevalent that
he had been killed in a collision near
Westmoreland Later this was changed
to seriously hurt" but few facts could
be obtained until his arrival about 3
o'clock He then had a black eye, a
bruised side and a burned hand, but Is
rapidly recovering. He was the engineer
of the night express from here to Boston
that morning The train left here three
hours late. about $50 a. m and was to
meet what is known as the paper train at
the heights of land in Westmoreland,
known as the tenth section switch. He
reached there first. The train coming
north was the one to take the siding. For
some cause the engineer Of that train
came to the switch under full Roadway
and crashed into Mr.. ClffOrd's engine
standing on the main line, wreCkng the
two The engineer and fireman OF the
train from Boston were badly bruised
The same train was in a collision the
evening before with an oil tank car in
the Rutland yard in the city of Burling-
ton. which caused the delay OF three
hours. The through passengers began to
feel that they were hoo dooed" before
they reached Boston.

Engine and Three Cars Drop 20 Feet.

Bellows Fails was a second time start
led by reports of a railroad accident Mon
day evening, when serious accident oc-
CURED on the Rutland railroad in this
town about six miles from the station.
The exact location was lille Brook
culvert" one-half mile this side of Law
rence's mills. About dark serious thun-
der storm occurred and the rain fell in
torrents. 1t was local storm. Here in
Bellows Falls we had only a light shower
with some thunder and lightning, but no
indications of anything serious. The
storm evidently covered only a small rela-
tive territory. The passenger train leav-
ing here about 7 o'clock for Rutland
passed the point in safety. At :, No 81,
a heavy freight train of 50 cars drawn by
two locomotives, left for Rutland No
sign of anything wrong appeared
until this culvert was reached, when the
forward engine dropped into a hole Is
or 20 feet deep and doubled up like
jack-knife. The train was made up with
three freight cars between the first and
second locomotive. The train was in
charge of Noah Heath of Rutland and the
engineer of the forward engine was Mil
ton Thompson, who lives on Cherry street.
Bellows Falls, and Fireman Earle Hodges
who lives on Atkinson street The three
freight cars followed the locomotive into
the hole, but the second locomotive stop
ped on the brink. The quantity of water
which fell during the shower had been so
great the culvert could not dispose of 1t
and the whole enbankment had been
washed out leaving the rails with only
crust Of earth hanging to them.
Engineer Thompson was pinned down
by some Of the wreckage and his collar
bone broken He was scalded by hot
water from the boiler, while being PIN
toned by the wreckage for nearly an hour.
BY the action of the engine as it fell.
Fireman Hodges was thrown outside the
wreck and one leg broken. The wreck
occurred at a point inaccessible by the
highway so it was impossible to carry
the passengers and baggage of trains by
that point.
The heavy engine lay in such a position
That 1t had to be raised and replaced on
the track before a trestle could be built
for the passage of trains. The break was
about 40 feet long and 90 feet deep. The
railroad company at once put on n large
wrecking gang, but with their best en-
deavors the road was entirely blocked TO
the passage of any trains or passengers in
either direction for over "a hours, the
first train passing about midnight of
Tuesday The local station was a busy
