destroyed by volcano.
The warning is given in all serious
ness by the government through the

Increasing temperatures. sulphurous
fumes escaping from assures torn in
the city streets by the Quakes and

heart of Guadalajara.
Government papers have been re-
moved from the palace to Mexico City

Lawrence Conspiracy.
ARREST CAUSES A SENSATION
Action Follows Suicide Of Prominent
Builder Of Andover, Mass, Whose
Admissions Resulted In In
quiry by Grand Jury.

Boston, Sept. 3.-William M. Wood
of Boston, president of the American
Wooden company, was arrested Friday
on an Indictment warrant charging
him with conspiring to distribute dyna-
mite in Lawrence during the general
strike there last winter. President
Wood surrendered himself to the au-
thorities and furnished cash ball Of
$4,000. II is understood he will be for
mally arraigned in superior court

Wood was the most prominent Of
four men indicted by special Suf-
folk county grand jury in connection
with the planting of the dynamite In
Lawrence. He lives with his wife
and three children at Andover. His
Boston offices are at Devonshire
street.
The Indictment OF Wood and the
three other men, two Of whom are
prominent In the textile world, fol-
lowed the suicide of e. w. Pitman.
a big mill builder and an Andover
neighbor Of Wood, who was also IN
the dynamite conspiracy. 1t is de-
clared, and whose admissions to Dis
trict Attorney Pelletier led to the
grand jury investigation.
Rather than appear before the grand
Jury in response to summons and
tell what he knew about Wood and
his other friends In the conspiracy,
Pitman ended his life by firing bull
let into his brain.
Dennis Collins of Cambridge, who
was arrested on a charge Of unlaw-
fully having placed dynamite in Il
railroad passenger train for trans
portation. is in jail In default Of 81 800
bail for hearing next Tuesday. The
name of third man indicted has not
been announced.
The discovery Of dynamite in a
Syrian lodging house, cobbler's shop
and a cemetery in Lawrence last
January, while the textile strike was
at it's height, caused sensation. The
strike leaders denied that they had
any intention of using an explosive to
further their plans and charged that
the dynamite had been planted" for
the purpose Of discrediting labor
lnions.

of the rest OF us are to avoid being
overwhelmed by the rising tide OF do
nestle prices. We are told that prices
are rising the world over but II you

Ashland limited train No. 112, south
bound, of the Chicago G. Northwest

Heroic work by passengers and
surviving members of the train crew
under great difficulties saved many
lives, and heavy downpour Of rain
prevented the wreckage from being
consumed by fire. Relief and wreck
ing trains were sent from Green Bay
and Amigo and the dead and in
jured were removed to hispitals in
Green Bay.
The train consisted OF a smoker,
mail car, baggage car, three Pullman
sleepers and day coaches and was
bowling along at a rate of thirty
miles an hour when it struck a wash
out caused by a cloudburst. which
had carried away a considerable sec
ton of the track.
The engine was thrown on it's side
as 1t plowed with terrific force
through the roadbed. The baggage
car next was telescoped, pinioning
four of those killed under the de-
bris. The mail and a smoking car
tipped over. Although the other
cars were derailed, they remained
upright.
Among the injured are members
Of the Wausau baseball club of the
Observation-Disclosures league, who were
enroute to Green Bay. A number OF
them were severely injured.
Those who escaped uninjured
quickly recovered from the shock
and turmoil and worked heroically
to rescue trainmen who were pin
Toned under the wreckage. The
bodies of the conductor, expressman,
baggageman and brakeman were
found under debris of the baggage
car. They had been killed instantly.
Alex. Schools, mail clerk, was alive
when aid reached him and for FIVE
hours he WAS held under the wreck
age while the rescuers struggled to
release him. He was badly crushed,
but may survive his injuries.
The scene of the wreck is In an
Isolated spot and in a thickly wooded
section. Before news OF the wreck
could be communicated to Green
Bay, It was necessary for Herbert
Huelsbeck, news agent, to run to the
nearest depot, mile and a half dis
