The real subject of discussion the
present week has been the probable
contests in both parties for the NOM
ination for the seat in the Senate of
the United States, now held by Joseph
l. France. The action of Governor
Richie, in bringing to trial DR.. ]. HUI

both Republicans and Democrats, in
the question as to whom shall be nam

BALTIMORE LETTER
Hotel Rennert,
Baltimore, June 18th, 1922.

Baltimore, June 2Jth, lJzZ.
The strenuous efforts of certain
very influential leaders to secure a
new candidate for the Democratic
nomination for the United States Sen
ate, seems to be on the rocks at lhe
present time. There are two able and
forceful Democrats already in the neld
either one of whom would be credll
to MARYLAND in the Upper House al
Washington. State Senator William l.
Norris, and Ex-Congressman David j.
Lewis, so far as their personal char-
acter and qualifications for puDllc
life are concerned, are far superior 10
any of the distinguished gentlemen
who are being impOrtuned to become
candidates for the nomination. II Is
true these two able men have Doth
served in public positions with honor
and credit to themselves and the state,
hut neither one of them Is Dlesseu
with a Well-filled barrel, While the
men who are being importuned TO en-
Ter the fight, even if they possess no
other qualifications, have barrels OF
ample size, and that fact, IN the eyes
of the politicians who are adopts at
the game, is the only qualification alb
solutely necessary for a candidate Tor
the Senate at the present time. lhe
man NAV be stupid, illiterate, and IN
other ways unrepresentable, but If he
has wealth in abundance, and will
snend If literally, he has all the up-to-
date qualifications for seat in the
Senate-and at the present time, that
body is full of examples of just such
~,
in a great degree of the party in pow
er, and in a less degree of the mlnorl-
ty. Maryland has been singularly free
from Senatorial auctions-wlth very
few exceptions, the Senators from TINS
State have won their places by their
merits, and not by the lavish use of
money-and the party nominees have
usually won their nominations with
ont the expenditure of large corrup-
ton funds, and there is no reason to
except that this year will prove any eX-
ception to the time-honored rule, and
that men of the character and ability
of Messrs Norris and Lewis will be
turned down for mere bag of money.
One of the surprising features of the
present political situation is the COM
plete disappearance of Major BROOKE
Lee from the stage. After the young
and popular soldier had retired from
the COMPREHENSIVE in January, he
remained at the State House during
the entire session of the General AS
sembly and directed the State Admin
fstration forces, and it was largely
due to his skill and popularity that

Twenty Engines Make a Train

The Southern Pacific has given the
Baldwin Locomotive works, of Phila-
delphia. an order for 80 large oil
burning locomotives. Recently 20 were
started Westward in one train, each
with a competent engineer, making a
train nearly a half mile long. Each
engine is nearly 100 feet long and
weighs 81 tons. They expected to
reach East st. Louis, June 5th. 1t is
the largest train of locomotives ever
run over any road, and, it is said is
sign of the prosperity that is COM
ing.

Seven persons were killed and 6S
injured. number OF them very badly
when the Readings Midnight Filler"
from Philadelphia to Atlantic City ran
into IL open switch, leaped frum the
rails md plunged down a 30-foot en-
bankmrnt $50 yards below VIII low
Junction. y. j., at 1924 o'clock Satur-
day morning.
AS the locomotive left the track it
shot through the air as if on wings for
about 100 yards before it turned on
it's side, crashing into another en-
bankment of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, where it came to a full stop. One
Pullman car and four steel coaches in
which there were in all SO passengers
followed the locomotive in its nose
dive and piled up on top of it, mass
of tangled wreckage.
1t is considered almost a miracle
that only seven were killed. Despite
the fact that all the coaches were
steel, they were twisted, torn and rent
by the terrific force of the crash. The
train was going at the rate of between
20 and so miles an hour when it tum-
bled over the embankment. The fact
that the coaches were steel, however
prevented the wreck from being fol.
lowed by a fire, which would have
burned the injured alive.
| Nearly everyone on the train was
either killed or injured. The few who
were only slightly hurt quickly sum
moned aid and men in the signal tow
er nearby had trains rushed from
! both Camden and Atlantic City to give
medical aid to the injured. Practically
all of the injured were moved to the
Atlantic City Hospital within two
hours after the wreck.
/ According to an official statement OF
the Philadelphia & Reading Railway
two men are responsible for the ca
taStrope. One is John DeWalt, 60
year-old towerman at Winslow juno
ton, who was placed under technical
arrest, charged with manslaughter
but who was not taken to cell be-
cause he suffered a nervous collapse
and the other is Wescott, the dead en-
gineer.
Thinking the express had passed
/ DeWalt. set the switches for another
train of empty coaches, which was
destined to be switched to a cutoff
connecting with the Cape May branch.
