Mexico City, August 1s-The Cath- lie party tonight indorsed the candi- dacy of Francisco l. Madero for tho presidency in an executive session of the convention.
 Certain delegates had talked of nomi- hating Francisco Leon De La Barra, tho provisional president. but his state- ment that he would not accept the nom- nation had the expected result

MANY INJURED IN
 B|G FOUR WRECK
G. T. HOag of Birmingham and Ralph Johnson Are
 Reported Injured

Columbus, O., August fs.-More than half hundred persons were injured. only one of whom may die. when Big Four train No. 46, the fast Cincinnati-New York special, was wrecked just west of this city today.
 The train was running at about 40 miles an hour coming into Columbus. As it rounded the curve the second day coach was derailed. It pulled other coaches off the track. The two front day cars topr,ed over a 1o-foot embank- ment while two of the Pulmans were thrown broadside across the track
 That no one was killed outright was re- markable. The cars were well filled and the passengers were thrown in heaps in aicles and over seats. Most of those in- jured received head and body bruises, and several suffered broken limbs
 The most seriously injured is Mabel Heminger, aged :. of Mount Carmel, Ill., whose left arm was torn off and her head badly bruised. Her mother, sister and two brothers also were badly cut and bruised.
 Columbus, O.. August 1S.-{special) c. T, Hoag of Birmingham and T. Ralph Johnson, living between that city and Montgomery, were bndly in iured today when Big Four train No. 46 left the tracks few miles out of Columbus. Mrs. ]. J. Morris of Chat tanooga was cut and bruised and Don aid Mclaughlin of Nashville is so bad ly hurt that physicians doubt his abil- ity to recover. MT. Hoag and MT. John son had reservations in the Pullman cars. These two coaches were the only ones not to oyerturn, so that their ina juries consist only of bruises and a few scratches. All the southern peo- pie were going to New York and gou aboard the train before it left Cin- cinnati early this morning.
 The switch over which 1t was run ming, at the intersection of the Big Four and T. A. and O. C. tracks, split and caused the train to leave the tracks. It was running at rate of ap- proXimately 40 miles an hour. Five of the coaches were overturned into the ditch. More than 50people were taken to the local hospitals for treatment, though none have as yet died.
