100 KILLED. 100 HURT
Express Hits Train Filled With
Munitions Workers.
Most of Dead Are Negroes Coming to
Work at Powder Plant-ln One
Car Every Person Is Killed.

Nashvile.-At least 100 persons,
most Of them negroes, were killed ana
the same number injured in head-on
collision of two passenger trains on
the Nashville Chattanooga and St
Louis railway at Dutchmans Bend,
five miles from this city.
Most of the killed and injured were
on a local train from Nashville which
carried several coaches full of work
men going to n powder plant. The
other train was an express from Mem
phis.
AS the crews of both locomotives
were killed the causes Of the accident
may never lie established. The express
train was running late and one theory
advanced was that the engineer of the
accommodation train may have disre-
garded signals and tried to make .
switch before the Memphis train ar
rived.
Investigations were begun by Off.
cials Of the road, the state officials ano
the railroad administration.
Among the dead were several sol
diers and sailors, including Private
John p. Hussey of Uhlian, ILL.,; Wilson
S. Harris Of the Naval Reserves, whose
address was not known, and q member
Of the Marine Corps named Alexander.

SENATE VOTES DRY
immediate Prohibition Wins on
Test 36 to SO.
Garfield Rules No Fuel VIII Go to
MaItstcrs When Supplies on
Hand Are Gone.

Washington.-The drys won two VIC
tories in Washington on the same day.
The senate, by vote Of 36 to 80,
decided that the drastic prohibition
amendment was germane to the Sli,-
100000 emergency agricultural bill
This means that the amendment, which
prohibits the sale of all alcoholic bev-
erages-except for export-after De-
cember 81 and which forbids the use
Of food or fruits for the making or
wine or beer after the 1st Of NoVem-
Der, will almost certainly become law
unless President Wilson vetoes it.
Later in the day the fuel administra-
ton announced that breWeries could
not count on a supply of coal after
their present stocks of materials are
exhausted This would close the brew
cries down in less than eight months
il was estimated here, whether Prcsl-
dent Wilson should veto the bone dry
agricultural stimulation bill or not.
The coal shortage is the sole reason
given for the fuel administrations ac-
tion. Officials of the fuel adminiStra'
tion estimate that there Is eight
months supply of malt now stored IN
this country. This will mean that I'M
less the fuel administration order is
rescinded all brewers and manufacture
ers of "near beers will suspend opera
tions within that time.
Fuel administration officials esti-
mate that the brewing industry in the
United States consumes about 3,lOO,-
600 tons of coal annually. The indus
trv is listed as the third largest fuel
consumer in the nonWar class, only
the building trades and the paper in
dustry being larger.
The order issued takes precedence
over the order of July 3, which limited
fuel consumption in the brewing indus
trv to so per cent of normal. The
new order placing total prohibition
on fuel used by the brewers at the
end of the eight months period bears
the Endorsement Of, Chairman Baruch
of the War Industries Board, Vance
Mccormick, head Of the War Trade
Board, and Food Administrator Her
bert C. Hoover. Before its final pro-
mitigation it. further received the per
sonal Endorsement of President Will
son.
It is understood that Senator Sim
mons, chairman of the Senate Finance
Committee, will object to prohibition
on the ground that it will cut govern
ment war revenues to a huge extent.
