STORING BAD EGGS
PRODUCE WRITER MAKES SEN
SATIONAL ATTACK ON TRUST.
Spoiled Eggs by Thousands of Dozens
Are Being Stored for Future
Consumption.

Chicago.-Under the direction Of an
alleged butter and egg trust, thou
sands of cases of bad eggs are being
placed in Chicago storage houses for
future human consumption. The stock
of good eggs in storage is being con-
stantly increased, while new laid eggs,
which cost the commission man II
cents a dozen, go to the housewife for
25 to 80 cents.
Statements to this effect published
by the Chicago Produce Bulletin
known in the trades as the Green
Sheet''-nearly caused the author to
be suspended from the Chicago but
ter and egg board. He was charged
with "uncommercial conduct"
One of the "uncommercial" things
which Isaac Tuck, publisher and ed
itor of the bulletin, did was to predict
coming break" in the price of eggs
and butter. His other "uncommerctaP
offenses were to decry the storage and
sale of No. eggs.
In the face of an unprecedented pro-
duction, Mr.. Tuck said in his paper,
the prices of eggs and butter remain
exorbitant. Furthermore, he limited at
the responsible parties.

50 DEAD IN WRECK.
MANY G. A. r. MEN KILLED
WHEN LEHIGH TRAIN
LEAVES RAILS.
SIXTY PERSONS ARE HURT
Disaster Occurs Near Manchester, N.
Y.-Most of Passengers Were Re-
turning From Veterans Meet at
Rochester-Soldier Saves Many.

Rochester, n. Y.-The Chicago, Buff
high Valley railroad, loaded with
Grand Army men returning from the
Rochester encampment, was wrecked
at Manchester Thirty-eight persons
lost their lives and 60 were injured.
The disaster was caused by spreading
rails. Two engines and two cars
passed over the rails in safety. The
third and fourth cars plunged over the
bridge so feet below.
The disaster was due to spreading
rails. The locomotives and the bag
gage car had passed over the trestle
when the tracks gave way. A dining
car filled with passengers at luncheon
was the first to plunge headlong into
the water. Two coaches followed, one
standing on end in the water with
all its passengers hurled into a heap,
which completely filled two-thirds of
the car, crushing and manning all
who were underneath.
Had 1t not been for the almost
miraculous presence of mind of Vet
eran Frank J. Primer, in charge OF the
U. S. Grant post, G.. A. r., of Philadel-
phia, the nine remaining coaches
would also have plunged into the
lake. Quick as a flash when he heard
the first crash Mr. Primer leaped up
and pulled the emergency brake. 1t
brought the coaches to stop culver
ing at the edge of the shattered
trest1e.
Before they could reach victims in
the partially submerged dining car
rescuers were obliged to build foot
bridge into the outlet of the lake.
A scene almost unprecedented in
railroad wrecks greeted the passen-
gers who poured out of the undam-
aged coaches. Victims with blood
streaming from head and arm and
limb were creeping and being dragged
through the shattered glass in the
windows, only to plunge into the
water.
