Lamy branch train No. 126 which left

H. for Lamy, struck a broken rail four
miles east of the city and was ditched.
/ The accident occurred on a trestle
over an arroyo and tne engine plung-
ed into the arroyo, ramming the pilot
into a sand bank and turned over. AS
the engine turned over, Huffman, who
stuck to his post, was thrown half
out of the window and instantly
crushed to death, while his lower
limbs were cooked by escaping steam
and water. Thomas Collier, veter-
an fireman of the mountain division

OUTRAGES
ENGLAND SUBMITS STATEMENT TO THIS
GOVERNMENT THAT IF THE POPE WILL
GIVE HIS CONSENT, She WILL TRY TO
EXTEND MISSIONS IN The PERU RUB.
Der FIELDS.

Washington, D. c., July 27.--In the
hope of alleviating conditions among
the Peru Indians in the Putumayo
rubber country, the British govern
ment has concluded to aid the extern
sion of the Roman Catholic church in
that country
AS the laws of Peru forbid the oper-
alton of missionaries of any other de-
nomination the British view is that
only through that agency can the
welfare of the natives be safeguarded.
Overtures have been made to the
Pope and if he is willing to sanction
extension of Catholic missions in that
part of Peru, efforts will be made
soon to secure through popular SUD-
scription, sufficient funds.
Already the movement for public
support has attained considerable
proportions in England and the state
department today WAS informed of it
in the hope that similar movement
be undertaken in the United States.

"The so-called Independent refiners
who are denouncing the present cut

ever interest it may have in the dc
mestic industry, the interests Of tnt
trusts are identical with all othet re-

Senator Lodge appealed 70 congress
Sin the name of humanity not to
strike down the sugar industry Of
Louisiana" while the sugar growers
of that state were staggering beneath
the bow received from the terrible
| flood of the Mississippi.
An amendment offered by Senator
| Bristow was at once accepted by
Senator Lodge and adopted without
vote emphasizing the agreement be-
tween the regulars and progressiyes.
! The amendment was to reduce the
$1.S2 II rate of the Lodge bill to
$1.6O.
Senator Bristow said that with this
change the Lodge bill was acceptable
to him. Explained that in his origi.
nal bill the rate had been fixed at

ed to the existing law he said, ex'

Senator BristoW, fixes a duty o. CSC

dred pounds for each degree of purity
above that. The existing law adds
8 lac for each degree.
Il feel that the republican majority
has consented not only to take on
the Dutch standard and the differen
tial on refined sugar, but also to re

Washington. D. c., July 27.-An
agreement between the regular and
progressive republicans was reached
today for the passage of a sugar tariff
bill fixing a duty of $1.60 per one hum
dred pounds in place of the present
rate of $19O. The pact, which it vas
believed would hold throughout the
session, provided that the progressiveS
should stand with the regular republi-
cans, deserting their previous .ll,ance
with the democrats.
A bitter attack by Senator Lodge
upon American Cane Sugar Refineries
opened the sugar debate. He charged
the refners with attempting to strike
down their competitors, the beet
sugar producers, by fighting for free
or reduced duties on raw sugar.
Mr.. Lodge endorsed a subs ltute bill
he had reported from the finance com
mittee, which would abolish the Dutch
standard test and the tariff difie"en
t!als of the present law.
Senator Lodge declared that one
year after abolishing sugar duties
the domestic industry would be dead
and the consumer would be paying eX
orbitant prices.
so far as | have beel able tf
learn" said Senator Lodge, the move
nent for free sugar, outside Of con
gress, has come from one of the three
great sugar refiners of the country
and from that source alone. The Am

JACK Ryan, last year of the
Jersey City team, and who was do
posed by Owner Lillis recently, is a be-
lever that catchers of experience are
the o valuable men in the game to-
day.
And for that reason continued
Ryan, IT am looking for another job,
though I am 40 years of age and have
been playing ball for twenty years of
my life. I think 1 have a couple OF
good years left in me yet and know
that I could more than make good
with a club that has a lot OF young
pitchers Inc no veteran catchers."
Ryan also pointed out the fact that
no club that did not have a veteran
catcher on its staff had ever won the
worlds championship, calling attention
to Lou Criger, of Boston; Johnny
Killing, of Chicago; Ira Thomas, of the
Athletics. and Roger Bresnahan, of
the Giants, in 1905, when they beat the
Athletics. only to have the tables
turned by the latter club last fall.
Former Director-General of Public
Works of Ecuador ''Jim" Hallock, now
deputy engineer OF Newark, is thank
ing his stars, these days that q comic
opera revolution made him quit the
warm climes OF South America some
time ago. I'D rather be a deputy en-
gineer on earth than a director-gen-
eral below It," says Mr.. Hallock.
It's not often that one policeman is
called upon to quiet another who Is
disturbing the peace but such was
the unusual situation the other night
in a Bergen street residence. Patrol
man John McHugh. of the First pre-
cinct, is a member of the newly-organ-
ized p~atrolmen's band, and started the
proceedings with his baritone.
He chose to do his practising in the
home of a relative on Bergen street,
and so engrossed was he in his occu-
patton he did not notice that several
of the neighbors were unappreciative.
In fact, they called loudly for him to
stop initiating a flock of wildcats, but
still he did not hear.
Finally an appeal was made to the
police of the Sixth precinct, and Patrol
man Emanuel Scheffner was dispatched
to quell the riot. When the two minions
of the law met it did not take them
long to come to an understanding. Nc
Hugh and his baritone departed.

OFFENDED ITALIAN SENTIMENT.

FUDGE PALMIERl, president of the Italian Civic Alliance, of
CD New York city, comes out in indignant defense of his ma
stionaity in the United States against the assertion by Gov
ernor Wilson, as a historian, that the Italian immigrant is unde-
sirable and of inferior quality to the Chinese, who would bring to
this country a better moral and intellectual value. Says President
Palmieri: "His attack was not the outburst of a man in the heat
or anger, but was calm, deliberate and premeditated. What he
wrote was an outward sign of his inward feelings. If Governor
Wilson should be a candidate every Italian who is armed with the
ballot should remember this attack upon their countrymen and
rebuke it in a fitting manner" The Italian American citizen who
resentsi the aspersion upon himself and his nationality should reflect
that when DR.. Wilson delivered himself of the diatribein question
he was not a candidate for the presidential nomination. He was
only then expressing his candid views. 1t is quite possible that
the view which now gives such ofense will be disayowed. But of
course the words uttered cannot be. They were written down and
are in print.

cATSKLL WATER FOR THE METROPOLIS.

NV EW YORK city has seen its last peril of water famine, en-
AN gineers say. They promise that early next year Father
Kniekerbooker will be drinking without limit the pure
huid from the Catskill Mountains, brought 120 miles at an expense
OF $751;, 100000. The Ashokan reservoir will be the largest in the
world and the water which it will hold would cover all Manhattan
Island to a depth of twenty eight feet. Seven villages will be sub
merged and a population of 1000 souls displaced. 1t will be one of
the worlds wonders, beside which the famous aqueducts of ancient
Rome will be insignificant. When a blast of dynamite tomorrow
noon 1,100 feet under the surface of the Hudson at Storm King
Mountain FORCES the last link in the stupendous chain and Mayor
Gaynor and other city officials walk in through the 5000 feet of the
tunnel from shore to shore, they will celebrate the triumph of an
engineering tssk that in it's problems makes the building of the
Panama canal comparatively simple. An army of $4,000 men is EN-
ployed upon the many details of this vast work, including the tunnel
itself, fourteen feet in diameter; the $50 miles of aqueduct, the
great reservoir, the halfdozen sub reseryoirs and the many miles of
piping under the metropolis. If there are 10 100000 inhabitants in
1880, as estimated, this system will then supply plenty of water
and it's capacity can be doubled by additional dams in the Catskils
requiring less than a year for construction.
