Primitive FARMING In Spain.

In some parts of Spain, as In the
Seville district. there are many large
farms ranging from 1000 acres up
to 10000 or even more. In other parts
Of the country thousands OF peasants
till little plots OF from two acres to
five acres apiece. There the use Of
modern farm machinery makes very
slow progress.

SEVENTEEN DEAD
IN TRAIN CRASH
Limited Rammed by Express on
New Haven Road.
FIFTY PASSENGERS INJURED
Wooden Pullman Cars Crushed When
Gigantic Engine PIunses Through
coaches-Prominent Men
Among Victims

New haven, Conn.,, sept. 3.-SeVen-
teen dead and so injured was the
known record In the wreck on the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad in which the first section OF
the White Mountain Express rammed
the second section of the Bar Har-
Dor express near North Haven.
The federal interstate commerce
commission ordered rigid inquiry.
Commissioner McCord left Washing.
ton for New Haven as soon as he
heard of the disaster.
The wreck was caused either by the
thick fog. the carelessness of the en-
gineer of the White Mountain Express
or the Anticipated signal mechanism In
use. ~
Wooden cars caused a great loss Of
life. Eleven wooden cars composed
the Bar Harbor Express. Three Of
them were demolished by the powerful
Pacific type locomotive drawing the
first section of the White Mountain
Express. So
Prominent Men Among Dead.
Among the dead are:
AItschul, William, Norfolk, Va.
Avery. Harold, 694 Broadway, New
York; died while being taken to hos
pital. - 49,.
Green, Albert, New York.
Hotchkiss, r. A., son Of Leonard

Bodies Badly Mangled. .'s
The bodies of the dead were torn
and mangled in the wreckage or hurl-
ed into the air, many of them land
ing in a nearby watermelon patch. The
injured were scattered through the
wreckage or strewn along the tracks.
The Bar Harbor express, running an
hour and a half late, had stopped at
a banjo signal. Whether they sent out
a fiagman or set the torpedoes neces-
sary to stop the following train is a
question. The Bar Harbor trainmen
assert they did. Engineer A. B. Miller,
whose home is not far from the wreck.
and who was on the White Mountain
express, says he saw no fagman. or
heard no torpedoes, and in the dense
fog could see nothing until he sud
denly discovered the signal against
him and applied the emergency brakes,
but too late to prevent the crash,
which came almost instantly.
Seventeen Bodies Recovered.
The dead and injured we're removed
form the wreck by train hands and vol
unteers among the passengers, includ-
ing a number of newspaper men who
were travelling on the train. The dead
were laid along the track as fast as
they could be gathered together aft
err the wreck There were II bodies
removed, and they we're taken later by
a special trolley to the James street
trolley car barns in this city.
