PENNSY'S I8 HOUR TRAIN
 LEAVES TRACK
Steel Cars Stood up Under Shock and Passengers Escaped With Bumped Heads
Especial from United Press,


 Upper sandusky. O., March 4-Whfls speeding westward at 65 miles an hour, the Pennsylvania's New York Chicago IS hour train was wrecked to- day at Glenville, between Bucyrus and Upper Sandusky. None of the crew of passengers was killed, the worst any suffered being bruises.
 The wreck today completed series of three, which superstitious trainmen believe to be the inevitable after the first one has happened. Recently. Train No. on the Pennsylvania lines was ditched in Indiana and Train No was derai'ed in Pennsylvania, both with loss of life.
 The IS hour limited was about 25 minutes late when it left Bucyrus to. day, as a double-header. The trucks of the forward engine broke and jump ed the rails at the Glenvil1e sid ng The engineer of the second locomotive brakes the moment he felt the jar This Iessened the speed of the train considerably before the second locomo- tive and two succeeding coaches jump ed the track The steel constructed cars withstood the jar firmly. Nearly all of the passengers were still in their berths and many are nursing bumps on their heads, caused by striking the top of their compartments.
 An engine from Bucyrus hauled the coaches that stayed on the track rack to that city. Wrecking trains from Crestlfne and Fort Wayne faced an all day job in clearing up the debris and opening up traffic again.

New York. March 1.-The Evening Sun prints, this afternoon, what it states is the full text of the letter, a portion of which was given out from Taft headquarters in Washington, last night. and in which Colonel Roosevelt was said to have written that he would not be candidate for the Pres idency, this year. When the excerpt, last night, was shown the Colonel, at his Oyster Bay home, he said

 The letter. as printed by the Sun, is as follows:
 June 27. 1911.
 My Dear Van Valkenburg-I am really obliged to you. Now will you copy of this letter that I am writing to you and also send copy of this letter to MT. Frank B. Moves? MT. McClatchy states that MT. Moves in- formed him, anent the story sent out by the Associated Press, that MT. Roosevelt had pledged himself to sup port MT. Taft for a second term that he (Mr. Noyes) had the same irforma- tion from sources entirely independent of those from which the Associated Press received the story. Mir Moves states that Ee understood that I did so express myself to member of the Cabinet and also to an insurgent Sen ator, and also says that he believes that President Taft thinks he has as- surances of support from me. MT. Moves adds that he explains my denial on the theory that I had explained my attitude confidentially and felt entitled to deny it when it was given public, 1 ity
