Batavia. n. Y. Especially Five
men are dead, two are probably fatal
ly injured and over score were
more or less seriously hurt in the
wreck of the Western express and the
Boston and Buffalo special, both
westbound on the New York Central
here. Four of the victims were kill
ed instantly, one has since died and
two of the injured in the hospital are
not expected to live.
The Buffalo and Boston special
No. 40 was at a standstill in the sta
tion yards, when, 1t is alleged by rail
road officials, Engineer j. b. Lydell
of Buffalo, on the Western express
train, No. 23, ran past precautionary
signals and dashed into the rear OF
the standing train. The signals
Superintendent Everett declares, are
In excellent working order
Crashed During Fog.
Conditions near dawn were those
which railroad men fear the most,
and which make the handling OF
trains almost a hazard at best. A
heavy fog hung over everything and
drizzling rain, which at times in
creased to a smart shower, was
turned to ice the moment It touched
anything. The windows of engines
and coaches were Opaque and the
rails were covered with a coating of
ice, which reformed almost imme-
diately after each passing train.
Train No 40 arrived at Syracuse
ahead of No. 23 and thus took pre-
cedence on the Western division be-
tween there and Buffalo. 1t was
ahead of time at Batavia and was
awaiting the signal from the conduc-
tor to start on time. Train No. 23
followed closely behind.
Jumped For Their Lives.
Engineer Lydell admits that he
saw cautionary light 1000 feet
east of the station and, the railroad
officials say, he also admits having
passed a signal set against him.
When Lydell saw the tail lights OF
the express through the fog it was
too late to prevent disaster. He
!ammed Oh the brakes, reversed, and
with cry of warning to his fireman
leaped for his life.
The flying train, with scarcely APP
preciable check, owing to the icy
rails, plowed into the Pullman coach,
the last car on the standing train.
The heavy coach was telescoped and
tossed to one side, the engine con-
tinuing on through the wreckage to
the next car, day coach. There il
reared high in the air and toppled
over on the wrecked Pullman.
The work of rescue was quickly
organized. The local firemen and
police, railroad men and volunteers
worked heroically among the wreck
age and Kissing steam from the shat
tered engine to rescue those pinned
In the debris, to whom immediate
succor meant life. Vans and cabs
were used as ambulances to carry
the injured to the hospital.

James Oliver Scott and Montgomery
Scott were the names she gave the
little chaps. James was three years
old and his brother fifteen months.
Her own name she refused to divulge.
The woman was well dressed and
seemingly refined. Kissing the chill
dren an affectionate good-by she left
the asylum and for seventeen years
nothing was heard of her. AS far as
officials of the institution knew the
boys were forgotten, and efforts to
locate the woman were without avail.
Three years ago she appeared at the
asylum and asked for the boys. They
had long since gone and she left the
institution without a word of eXplana-
ton of her long desertion- James was
adopted by a Western farmer and
given a good home, but the younger
boy met with a more unfortunate fate.

The Tenth legislature passed a
law for the publication of the
digest of laws in two papers in
each county Immediately follow
ing each legislature for the infor-
nation of the public. The Elev-
enth Legislature passed the esti-
mate of required running expen-
ses made by State Auditor Gift
ford, which included $1,000 for
the publishing of the digest of
laws. Gov. Hawley vetoed this
item of expense with the slurring
remark; II know of no good
to be accomplished by such pub
LEGATION, unless it is a good thing
to donate that amount to two par
tisan papers in each county of
the state, without any benefit to
be gained in return" The
Eastern Idaho Press club decid-
ed at a recent meeting not to let
Gov. Hawley's insulting remarks
or his peremptory veto pass un-
roticed, but will accept the chal-
lenge made and will take the
matter into court for adjudica-
ton. The failure to publish a di-
gest of the new laws enacted
by the last legislature is said to
have complicated matters in both
the Mcdowell murder case at
Standpoint, and also the feed
yard murder case at Lewiston,
owing to the fact that neither
the judge or jury knew that un-
der the Potts law the jury has
the right to fix the life imprison-
ment or death penalty in MUIR
der case. The jury found each
man guilty as charged but did
not fix the sentence. This is
said to be ground for new trial.
Still the governor cannot see
where the public is to benefit by
the publication of a digest of
newly enacted laws. Great head
on this governor of ours, with
his penny wise and proud foolish
policy.

The Government is determined
that the sale of bleached flour
must stop and l have sent out
notices telling the manufactures
that they have until October 1s
to get all bleached flour off OF
the market. In the event / fine
bleached flour for sale in this

will follow. The bleaching il
done by a chemical process which
injects nitrates into the flour ant
these are detrimental to the di

can be digested in just one-hal
the time that the bleached flou
can and the harm is apparent. !"

The Globe is not inclined to ag
itate division sentiment, or to
lightly tap any entering wedge

ton of the state expects to get

migration Commissioner Samuel
Rich, all things consideredY Mr..
Rich hasn't any binding ties up
here and he has some very strong
ones, both financial and other
wise, in the southern portion of
the state along the Oregon Short
Line, in which his church and
brethren are said to be the heavi-
est investors. Mr.. Rich, no doubt
has the same yearnings after an
abundance of the good things of
this life, that most of those who
tarry in this fleshly tabernacle
have, and like Dives, would not
turn down an opportunity to
adorn himself "in fine linen and
fare sumptuously every day.
and possibly does so. But wheth'
err he does or not, the yearning is
there; which is not saying thai
r Mr.. Rich is bad man; but il
points the argument intended t.
|. be made, which is, that while tn,
north may be in the Jackpot, :
and has frequently been called
upon to ante red against whit,
chips, in the exploitation of thi
, immigration proposition, it doe
not seem as yet to have ever re
ally gotten into the game" will
a show of even winning back it
ante. Now that is not saying an
thing very bad about Mr.. Rich
or any of the southern people
but it is very suggestive of TIL
8 belief that under present condl
: tons the north is getting little d
nothing for it's money. A meas
! ure to remedy this condition was
through certain Vaccinations
brought to naught during th
: last legislature, following whicl
6 there was talk of legislating tn
= office out of existence, which
: looking at it from its own self III
terest, would have been bette
, for the northern section. If thi
9 office is to be continued, ther
should be two commissioners on
from each end of the state. Bn
. there is no doubt a better wa.
than that to make the scales o
Justice balance.
