NEAR-MAoIc SAVES JEWEL.
Woman's Brooch Sticks on Auto Tire
and Travels 1000 Miles.

Ocean Park, Cal.-Near-magic has
been discovered in a diamond brooch
by Mrs. Walter Heating, wife of one
of the wealthy heirs of thel nitrate
king. Though the brooch fell from
her waist into the street, it was
neither lost nor harmed. Mrs. Keat-
ing dropped the jewel nearly two
weeks ago, while automobiling with
her husband, and both mourned it as
lost. 1t was set with 90 fine gems.
They searched the streets for hours
and gave up hope. Today message
reached them from their garage that
the precious article had been found.
1t had fallen in such way that the
sharp end imbedded itself in one of the
tires with the brooch proper on the
side of the wheel, so it came in contact
with nothing. 1t is estimated that the
brooch was carried more than 1000
miles.

vicinity to Washington for a week (
outing.
The train was one furnished by the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western
railroad and the accident occurred
while it was travelling at high speed
over tracks controlled by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad. The locomotive jump
ed the track, the cars toppled over and
were set on fire by exploding oil, the
wrecked coaches having struck an oil
tank along the track when they left
the rails.
The entire train was quickly envel-
oped in flames and completely con-
sumed by the fire.
The eight missing persons, seven of

are believed to have been burned to
death in the wreckage. The finding
of charred bodies led the railroad
wrecking crews to the conclusion that
they are dead.
The most seriously injured were re-
moved to the Easton hospital, where
three of them, Miss Eleanor E. Ruth
erford, a Utica teacher; Charles M.
Pearson, of Stroudsburg, Pa, a Penn
sylvania railroad conductor, and Will
liam Vannoy, Trenton, N. j., en-
gineer, died tonight.
The physicians at the hospital said
late tonight that most of those Gin the
hospital will get we'll.
The cause of the wreck has not been
determined. The place where the acci-
dent occurred had been undergoing re-
pairs and unfinished work may have
been responsible for the train leaving
the track.
There was terrific explosion at the
scene of the wreck tonight. There is
no communication with the wrecking
party but local railroad men say either
the boiler of the wrecked locomotive
or gas tank exploded.

UNIONS RETALIATE.
Burns and Assistants Are Placed Un-
der Arrest for kidnapping.

Indianapolis, April 26. Detective
Burns was served with a warrant at G
O'Clock this evening, charging him
with completely in the kidnapping of J..
j. Mcnamara, secretary treasurer of
the International Association of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers.
Three attorneys, arraigned today on
the same charge, spent two hours in
jail because of delay in obtaining
bonds. They are Walter Drew and j.
A. g. Badorf, of New York, counsel
and assistant counsel for the National
Erectors' association, and w. Joseph
Ford, assistant district attorney of
Los Angeles.
Burns was arrested while going to
the court of Justice Manning to sur
render himself. He was released un-
der $40, 900 bond to appear before the
grand jury and was subpoenaed to tes-
tify tomorrow morning Drew, Ba-
dorf and Ford were released under
bonds of the same amount. They
waived preliminary examination and
were bound over to the grand jury.
Frank Fox, a chauffeur, charged
with assisting in the alleged kidnap-
ing of Mcnamara, who was taken
from here last Saturday, was released
under SIS, 600 bond to appear before the
grand jury. Constables with John
Doe" warrants are said to be seeking
some of Burns assistants.

ground, and the best information they
had today was that the Chicago attor-
ney, instead of coming personally tc
Los Angeles, has sent confidential
representative to look over the situa-
tion before he would agree to accept
the task of chief counsel in such a
momentous struggle.
In consequence the arraignment,
which was scheduled to take place not
later than next Wednesday, may be
deferred, and the district attorney is
expected to consent to the delay, as it
is understood that he is not averse to
having further time to adjust various
technical points in the states side of
the case.
These points are said to concern the
indictments against the accused men
which were drawn hastily after Burns
had taken James Mcnamara and Nc
Manigal into custody at Detroit.
1t was aso reported in official quar-
ters that the arraignment might await
the arrival of attorneys representing
the National Erectors' association,
who, it is said, will join District At
torney Fredericks and his ASSISTANTS,
w. j. Ford, in the prosecution Of the
McNamaras. Since his alleged con-
fession to the prosecutor three days
ago and his subsequent refusal to see
attorneys for the defense, McManigal
is no longer considered by the defense.

PIRATES LOOT SHIP.
Held Off Only BY Arms While Pas
sengers Are Transferred.

Shanghai, China = Warships prob
ably will be sent to recover as much
as possible of the wrecked steamer
Asia's cargo, which was abandoned to
Chinese pirates when the passengers
and crew were taken off by the Chi
nese steamer Shoaking. The value of
the cargo, made up principally of silk
is estimated at $500, 600.
After the passengers had escaped,
pirates attacked the crew and though
the sailors put up hard fight, cap
tured one stoker and carried him away.
The others of the crew, with the
passengers and the mails, were
brought to this port. According to
passengers, the officers had to use
their revolvers to keep the pirates at
bay while the passengers were being
transferred. Directly the Asia was
abandoned the pirates looted her.
1t is estimated the total loss of ship
and cargo amounts to $1,50O,0O0.

nounced, after the filing of the report,
that "large and important suits"
would begin Immediately.
The cases are Interstate Commerce
commission actions, brought to insure
that published ore shipping rates are
effective. The government will seek
to show the indicted railroads owned
docking facilities in Ashtabula, O.,
and Conneaut, o., harbors; that these
were operated by companies, in effect
hired" by the railroads; that the
roads paid excessive rates to the dock
ing companies, paid over portion of
the money received to the shippers

spiracy in violation of the Elkins law.

not less than $1,000 nor more than

ernment to collect many millions of
dollars.

days action began several months
ago, and is the first government in
quiry into ore transportation methods
in the lower lake region.

Banks Pilinr un Money.

Washington-Bank reports from all
sections indicate an enormous piling
up of cash. Reserve and central re-
serve cities especially report large
holdings. Two conclusions are drawn
from this condition by treasury Off
cials. One is that a slackening condi-
tion of business, ascribed to many
different causes, is driving money into
the banks. The other is that the
banks are beginning early to prepare
for late summer and autumn demands
from the interior.

public buildings with the exception OF
the city hall mass of smoking ashes.
For many hours the firemen, assisted
by men and apparatus from other
Maine cities, battled against the blaze
before they conquered it. Dynamite
proved of little avail. Buildings We're
blown up, but it was not until the
wind, which had been blowing almost
gale during the night, shifted and a
light rain fell, that there was any in
dication that the firemen would win.
Cheered by the help from this unex-
pected quarter, the fre-fghting forces
were concentrated near the corner of
Hammond and Central streets, nearly
two miles from the place where the
blaze started, and there the spread of
flames was checked at midi ight.
But while the rain and the shifting
of the wind to the east saved the rest
of the city, it only added to the dis
comforts of thousands who had seen
their homes go up in flames, and who
were huddled together in the streets.
The burning of churches and public
buildings left many of the unfortu-
mates without shelter Three lives
are known to have been lost, although
the names of the dead have not been
learned,

ary with the utmost care.
