Engineer and Fireman Were Kill
ed Last Night
AS TRAIN STRUCK A ROCK
Connecticut and Passumpsic Division of
Boston & Maine Railroad Blocked
With Debris for Many Hours
During the Night.

Wells River, Dec. l3-The engineer
and the fireman on northbound freight
train on the Connecticut and Passumpsie
division OF the Boston & Maine railroad
We're killed at a point south OF here last
night, when their locomotive struck a
large rock that had been dislodged by a
blast and thrown on the track.
The Dead:
William Joyce. the engineer.
Jack CardeT, the fireman
The accident happened at a point on
the road which is known as Jack Leon
ards ledge. Section men had been blast
ing along the side of the railroad, and n
rock was dismantled after the section
men had quit work for the day. The
freight, which was bound from White
River Junction to this place, was a heavy
train and struck the obstruction with
much force. The engine and four or five
freight cars were derailed in the impact,
crushing the two trainmen to death. No
one else on the train was injured.
The traffic was blocked for many
hours, as the wreckage was piled high.
A wrecking train was sent from White
River Junction and soon began the work
OF clearing away the debris.
OF the victims, Joyce, the engineer,
was unmarried and came from Randolph,
and Carder, the fireman, who leaves his
wife and one child, was a Lyndonyille
man.

How Prince Ito Solved Problem.
When Nine. sada tMacc6, the ID,
nous Japanese actress, received the
news of the assassination of Prince
Ito at N1ito, where she was playing
with her troupe, she burst into tears.
"1n my frequent quarrels with my
husband" said the actress, 1--WE some
times asked Prince Ito to judge be-
tween us. One day, when we had a
more than usually violent dispute at
Chigasaki, the prince came in unex-
pectedly, and asked him to decide on
the question.
He declined, while proposing the
following solution: Go down into the
garden, both of you, and fight it out
like wrestlers. The one that wins
will naturally be the one who is in the
right

SENATOR PURCELL WOULD
FORCE VOTE ON REPORT.
Declares He viii Press Resolution to
Have Findings Of investigating
Committee BaIloted On.

Washington, Jan. 17.-Renewal Of
the fight on Richard A. Ballinger, sec.
retary of the interior. is contem-
plated in resolution introduced By
Senator Purcell of North Dakota.
The resolution seeks to force out
into the open the report of the Joint
congressional committee that inyesti-
gated the charges made against the
cabinet officer by Clifford Pinchot, for
mer chief forester. The report has
been in the possession Of both the
senate and house for some time. but
no action has been taken on 1t, both
branches apparently being willing to
let the matter remain as 1t is.
The resolution in part reads:
1T is the sense of the senate that
the findings and conclusions reported
by certain members of said commit
tee to the effect that Richard A. Bal
linger. secretary of the interior, has
not been true to the trust reposed in
him as such secretary, that his ad-
ministration Of that Office has been
marked by lack of fidelity to the
public interests and that he is not
deserving of public confidence and
should no longer be retained in that
office. are based upon and in substan-
tial conformity with the evidence re-
ported by the committee"
Senator Purcell is member of the
Ballinger-Pinchot investigating com.
mittee and in response to an inquiry
he said that 1t was his purpose to
press the resolution to a vote II DOS
sible.

HOPE GIVEN UP

mission Beyond That Of
Present Body.

Washington, Jan. 17.-Hope of pass;
ing a tariff commission bill at this
session Of congress has been virtual
ly abandoned by It's friends. The leg
islative situation in the senate, which
is perhaps the worst that body has
seen In decade, is the principal rea-
son ascribed for the belief that the
measure is doomed.
This fact has not served, however,
to lessen the contest in the house be-
tween the Longworth and Dalzell tar
ID commission bills. It is the impress
sion among house members that thel
body will pass one of these bills, c,r
. compromise measure. before ed
journment.
House TO Act Anyway.
That the house of representatives
should pass bill regardless Of. the
situation In the senate was one t,f the
decisions at the conference Of mem
bers Of the committee on ways and
means with the president at the
White House last night. 1t is not un-
derstood, however, that definite agree
ment was made as to the form OF the
house bill although the pre- sident is
on record as indorsing the Longworth
draft, which provides commission to
meet the hopes of the mosa ardent ad-
vocates Of such body.
The Dalzell bill. which, has the sup
port Of Representatives Dalzell Of
Pennsylvania and Ford.ney of Michi-
gan, both members 6f tn, committee
on ways and means, and Of Speaker
Cannon, goes no further in practice
than the present law establishing the
tariff board, except that 1t practically
assures Its permauency. It does not
increase its powers or the scope Of
its activities. The stand pat element
In congress is believed to be united
behind this measure. Both In the
house and in the senate the stand
patters believe that II they can stain
OF q full-fiedged tariff commission at
this session no such body will be
formed by the Democrats during tho
next two years, when they will control
the house.
viii Appeal for Tariff Board.
~ SAO Lung WOalu Ulll 6Oob uOWu "
defeat congress will be asked by the
administration to appropriate $780,.
600 for the work of the tariff board,
which would assure money enough to-
continue the board during the life Of
the Democratic house Of representa-
tves. This item alone would arouse
considerable debate. especially in the
senate.
In that body only six weeks Of the
present session remain, six days of
which will be consumed by eulogies.
Nearly all Of the appropriation bills
remain to be passed and much debate
will be heard on the proposal to for,
tify the Panama canal. the Lorimer
election case. ship subsidy and the di-
rect election of United States sena-
tors. It is evident, therefore, that II
general legislation of any kind passes
that body 1t must have almost unani-
nous support.
