When the country has so many vital

When the country has so many vital questions, national and international, before it, when it needs all its thought and energy to adapt itself to the new financial and commercial situation made by the war, when the extension of it's trade and banking demands the wariest attention, when tariff changes new taxation and the momentuos issue of military and naval preparedness are discussed in every hamlet, when everybody waits for the revived gen eral domestic prosperity which mighty crops and mighty export trade are sure to bring, what place has woman suffrage in the immediate program of politics New York Times.
 Although extraordinary efforts are already put forth to induce the people of New York to ratify this Constitu- tion, the World believes that the more it is studied the graver and the more numerous the objections to 1t will appear. It is unthinkable that an instructed and an informed public sentiment will consent to put the lib- critics, the institutions, the laws and the government of the greatest state of the Union into a straight-jacket for the next twenty years, and make all political progress impossible during more than half the lifetime of a gen. eration.-New York World.
 The United States should have no desire to become the guardian or pro- tector of the West Indian republics, but 1t is important to it's interests, especially since the opening of Pan anna Canal, that they should be free from any disturbances that would in- vite or justify intervention bJ any European power.-New York Journal of Commerce.
 Chicago's elevated railway proposes to run so-called fresh-air cars, win dowless and unheated, for the benefit of passengers who are out of door de- voices This in in line with modern progress on the golf links and in the open air sleeping porches and schools. The people who patronize these fresh air cars will know what to expect, and will be clothed accordingly. It means the introduction into the peoples cars of the advantages which automobile owners can enjoy if they will. It would seem to be very clear that there will be patrons ready for these open-a cars, which will not harbor the bad air that Is one of the evils lamented under the old order. Surely there will be national interest in this Chicago de- ! parture.-Springfiel Republican.

Three Trains Come Together
at Carlisle, England,
Fire Following.
WOUNDED ARE BURNED
Fifty Two Out of 500 Troops
Answer Roll Call After
the Accident.

Carlisle. Eng, May 22.-No fewer
than 300 persons we're killed this morn
ing on the CaIedoniau railway at Gret-
ma. near this city, when three trains
collided.
The final list of dead may be consid-
earbIy greater than first estimates, for
it is believed many persons received
fatal injuries The total casualties
probably will reach four hundred. as
the list of more or less seriously in
jured is very numerous.
One of the three trains was a troop
train. another was a local and the
third was the express from London TO
Glasgow.
Fire broke out among the wreckage
and added appallingly to the horror of
the scene.
Assistance arrived quickly. The fire
force was called out and after getting
the flames under control the firemen
joined in extricating the dead and
wounded.
The adjoining fields soon had the
appearance of an immense mortuary.
with the dead. the dying and the in
jured laid out in ranks.
The dead mostly are soldiers. The
troop train collided first with local
from Carlisle and before the occupants
were able TO get clear of the wreck
age of this accident, the express from
London to Glasgow crashed into them,
and locomotives and cars. shattered
and spIintered, were hurled about in
confusin.
Fire broke out and spread rapidly
through the wreckage. II was soon
burning so fiercely that rescuers were
driven back to wait for the fire bri-
gades.
These were brought up with all
speed, but before the fire was put out
many of those pinned under the debris
burned to death.
Five hundred men of one regiment
were on the troop train. When the
roll was called after the wreck only
50 officers and men responded. Num-
bers of others, however. were engaged
in caring for their wounded comrades.
Some of the victims were so
mangled that their rescue was impos-
sible. Several who were extricated
died soon after.
idfC
Doctors performed heroic services,
Drawing the flames in their efforts to
help those pinned in the wreckage.
Dr. Edwards responded to the appeals
of two soldiers fastened by the legs.
Facing the flames, he amputated both
legs of one soldier and one leg OF the
other, as this method offered their on
ly hope of escape. One of the soldiers
died from the shock.
By 5 o'clock this afternoon 73 bodies
had been recovered from the wreck
age.
An added hazard for the rescuers
was the explosion OF cartridges in
the belts of soldiers imprisoned in the
burning wreckage, which caused bull
lets to fly about Ammunition wagons
on the rear of the train were olsen
gagged barely in time to prevent their
being blown up.
