SLIGHT WRECK
OCCURRED NEAR
|. & n. DEPOT
TWO CARS WERE DERAILED AT
THE CORNER OF HAYNE AND
WRIGHT AS TRAIN NO. I ON p. &
A. DIVISION WAS LEAVING CITY
YESTERDAY.

AS train No. 1 on the P. & A. di-
vision was leaving the city yesterday
afternoon at SIS o'clock wreck oc-
Cured at the corner of Hayne and
Wright streets, resulting in the bag
gage and express cars being derailed
and turned almost completely over.
Nobody was hurt and none of the
other cars of the train were derailed,
nor was the engine. The train was
gotten out by means of the side tracks
and the baggage and express trans
ferred and proceeded after a short de-
lay, but at late hour last night q
crew of workmen were still busy clear
ing the tracks at the scene Of the
wreck.
The wreck was caused by the open
ing of the switch and occurred in a
rather peculiar manner, as the engine
had already crossed the switch before
it opend. 1t seems that the switch
was blocked in some way and that
after the engine had passed over the
blocks were Jared out of place in some
manner and the two cars were derailed
before the train could be brought to a
standstill.
It is not thought that either of the
cars are seriously damaged, although it
will take an examination to tell how
badly they may have been wrenched
by the strain.

designated as head of the relief work
also, made an earnest appeal to the
miners late yesterday afternoon 20
volunteer for the task of grave digging.
Some difficulty had been experienced
in obtaining men for this work, the
brave miners preferring to risk their
own lives in entering the mine in quest
of the missing. Instantly, however,
Mr.. Chambers appeal brought forth
a ready response and more than suf-
ficient number of men volunteered for
the work
1t is necessary to have many open
graves ready as the bodies are buried
as fast as they are removed from the
mine. Decomposition has set in.
Farm wagons, hacks and other i'm
provised hearses silently march away
from the morgue as fast as the bodies
are prepared. Seated upon a white
pine box containing the coffin and
lifeless form may be seen the widow
and children and other loved ones.
Three ministers here are kept busy
burying the dead and Offering Divine
consolation to the living. The field is
fertile for much work of this character
by many more men of the gospel.
Widows and orphans and others de-
pendent upon the men whose lives are
lost are appreciative of the generous
charities of the outside world. The
appeal of President Taft, Governor
Hooper and others for relief funds are
well founded. Hundreds of famished
mouths begged piteously for bread in
the distribution of the first charity
shipment received here yesterday af-
ternoon and the appeals for provisions
given out this morning was even more
heart-rending.
The people are in need of all the as
sistance possible. not only for their
present needs, but in anticipation of
the future, when so many little ones
will be absolutely dependent

Church HOLDS

ANOTHER ATTEMPT TO ESTAB-

New York, Dec. 12-Another at
tempt to establish a claim to part of
the real estate holdings of the Trinity
Episcopal church holdings here now
borhood of $4,000 900 failed last week.
Part of the property sought to be re
deemed is occupied by the church
edifice on Broadway facing Wall street
and covers the adjoining cemetery, in
which are buried the remains of Alex
ander Hamilton, first secretary of the
treasury of the United States; Robert
Fulton, inventor and builder of the
first steamboat to ply American wa
tiers, and other famous men Of the
eighteenth and nineteenth century.
The property held by the church cor
poration against which the claims for
a part interest was dismissed by the
decided to it by Queen Anne in 1905.
It's history stretches way back to
the days of the Dutch governors of the
island of Manhattan, when New York
was officially known as New Amster-
dam.
Poeloff Jams. the first husband of
Aneke, obtained grant of land from
the Dutch governor, Van Twiller. On
his death his widow married Domino
Everardus Bogardus. and the land was
confirmed to her by Peter Stuyevsant
in 1854. The farm was sold by her
children to the English governor
Frances Lovelace, who held it as
crown property. Queen Anne in 1705
gave the land to Trinity parish, which
had been incorporated under a royal
charter in 1897.
Recently one of the heirs of Aneke
Jams Bogardus living in Illinois got
notion to set aside Queen Anne's grant
to the church corporation, and brought
suit to that end with the result stated.
The case was called before Justice
Blanchard and a jury, but was dis
missed as soon as the attorney for the
plaintiff outlined what he expected to
prove. The plaintiff was required to
pay the costs. The case of the Bo-
gardus heirs against the Trinity Cor
poration was thought to have been
settled in 1860. The New York Mer-
curry of Oct. q of that year gave an
account of a long trial of a suit brought
by a family by the name of Brewer
The case lasted twenty years. Since
that decision all claims of the Bo-
gardus heirs have not been considered

Special to The journal.

Mariana, Dec. 13.-The jury rem
dered verdict today of murder in the
first degree without recommendation
of mercy against Sam Mathis and his
son, Ollie Mathis, who killed Rufus
Wester, a prominent farmer living
near Grand Ridge.
The town is full of people as the
trial was of great interest, all parties
being prominent in their neighborhood.
1t appears that the people in Jackson
county have begun to realize that
crime must be punished. 1t will not
be an easy thing to escape the pun
ishment of the law in the future.
Mr.. Sam Mathis is an old man and
considered before this as a very good
citizen. 1t was a surprise to the COM
munity when he and his son killed Mr.
Wester, who was also a good citizen.

the men who are running wild in their
underground prison.
Miners were standing about the en-
trance to the channel talking, pleading
that they be allowed to go under the
earth and join in the man hunt, but
officials objected.
A graphic story is told by Arthur
Scott, one of the survivors who was
removed last night from the Cross
Mountain mine. While relating the
story of his experience to a CORE
spondent of the Associated Press, Scott
became so weak that he could not con-
tinue. He said:
TT was about 1920 o'clock Saturday
morning when the explosion occurred.
We were in left entry No. Is at the
time. Smoke Immediately followed
the explosion, but very little coal dust
appeared. The explosion sounded like
a death kneIl. John Duff came to me
and said that we must leave the mine
as there had been an explosion. Then
all of us went to left cross entry No.
16 and remained there until rescued.
Towards the last bad air was ter
rible and the last hour was the worst.
Dora Irish and myself had very little
light most of the time. We built two
bratticeS. We could tell that during
part of the last hours the air was u
little better, but the last hour was the
worst. We found a little water in the
mine which we drank. I had food but
did not eat it. | had lain down to die
while we were behind the brattices
and all did was to think about my
past life"
AT this point Scott became so weak
that he could not talk further. Scott
is married and has a small son. Both
wife and son were overjoyed with the
knowledge that their husband and
father was safe. Since being rescued.
Scott has been given a small sup of
water every ten minutes. Raw eggs is
the only nourishment that he has
taken.
OFFER OF PRESIDENT.
Upon the rescue of the five living
men from the Inflated mine last night,
T. /. Stephenson, president of the
Knoxville Iron Company, which oper-
ates the mine, announced to the
families of the rescued party that the
men could be removed to any hospital
in the United States for care during
their convalescence and that the COM
pany stood ready to bear all expenses
This announcement brought generous
words of appreciation from the
families.
Mr.. Stephenson spent the entire
night at the mine. A telephone had
been placed in the main channel, back
about two miles, and the latest infor-
nation as to the findings of the rescue
party is being conveyed to him over
this wire.
Plans have been made for great care
to be taken of men found alive in the
mine, so that no danger will result
from bringing them into the open air
after their long Imprisonment. When
about 200 feet from the mines mouth
blankets were wrapped around their

their faces by the physicians who
stood ready to administer to them.
The men rescued last night, however
protested against such precautions
declaring they were able to take care
of themselves.

Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. by electing

first time two federal senators and one

full sovereignty of a commonwealth.
The Democrats hope to elect Mark
