FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1590. MR. BLAINE AND RECIPROCITY, The Secretary Busy Conferring With Spanish-American Diplomats. There are some significant signs in the air, which, while they do not altogether escape observation, are not at present attracting the attention which their importance warrants, Tue Stan bas already intimated that Mr. Blaine has not been distracted from his work on the reciprocity plan by the excitement of the election, and that he may give his party some things to comsider before the next session of Congress has ended which will relieve them somewhat from the depressing effect of lection just passed. To even the most casual observer it is evident that the republi- cans must have something more invigorating than the McKinley bill if they are to live an move aud havea being in 1892. There must be a market found for that bushel of wheat and broad Sade of pork which find no market under the McKinley bill i? the farmers are to become reconciled to their old love. It is believed that the reciprocity plant of Mr. Biaine’s, with a little hot-nouse treatment at this time, is going to bud and blossom and bear fruit, which will taste sweet in the mouths of the people and will prove a balm of Gilead to tho republican party, It is noted of . Blaine that when he takes hoid of athing he takes hold in earnest. He has a leeway from now until 92 for the nego- tiations with Spanish-American nations for reciprocity. But he is at work on these matters now as if they were things to be ac- complished atonce. He is secluding himseif from the public to a great extent and is devot- ing nearly all his time to the work on his groat plan, which it is said he believes will be the salvation of the party, and which will certainly make him the great’ man of the party if it is successful, He would pfobably prefer the fame of having developed our trade on the American continent and given a new impulse to our national prosperity to that of being President, DAILY CONFERENCES. Donbtless Mr. Blaine saw the cyclone coming and he devoted himself more earnestiy to his task of preparing meane of escape from lasting injury. Within the past two weeks he has ba the east dining room at his house fitted up as an office and consulting room, and many times a day ie ohas received visits there from the diplomatic representatives of the Spanish-American repub- lics. He bas denied himself to other callers and has devoted himself to conferences with these diplomats, and it may be assumed that these conferences have not been fruiticss, since all parties to them have had practically the same object in view. The presence at Washington of Mr. Pitkin, our minister to the Argentine Republic, and Mr, Conger, our minister to Brazil, are not without significance. There are reasons why negotiations with Argentine might be con- ducted at Buenos Ayres, and this makes it im- portant that our minister there should confer personally with the Secretary of State after having been in conference with the Argentine government. The negotiations with Brazil have probably advanced further than any others, Senhor Salvador de Mendonca, the special envoy ex- traordinary apd minister plenipotentiary to this country from Brazil, bas gone home, taking with him some important papers. He will be gone just about as long as it will take for him to get down there, have a treaty signed and get back again. Before Congress has been in session more than a month the Senate will probably have a treaty with Brazil to consider. The progress of friendship and association with l’cru and Colombia is satisfactory also, Wo may not be making as much progress with Chili. Chili is not as cordial in its love of the United States as are some of the other Spanish- American nations. CUBA ENTHUSIASTIC FOR RECIPROCITY. In Cuba there isa tremendous agitation of the question of reciprocity with the United States. Just what is the disposition dt Madnd is yet to be found out. There has beenachange of cabinet there and the now Spanish minister here was speseented to the cet weaee iT mil ir to ir, Grul Qn his oy to Bpal-Maving Pan teeeeetnd tae carpet bag. The governor general of Cuba has called the chairmen of the chamber of com- merce, the Economic Society, the union of cigar manufacturers and the of trade of Havana to the palace and con- veyed to them a communication from the government at Madrid asking them to send to Madrid, in union with the chamber of com- merce at Santiago de Cuba, a delegate repre- senting each body to give the foreign office their views on the subject of negotiations for reciprocity with the United States and to con- fer on the subject.

The third sec- tion of the western express came thundering along ata high rate of speed and crashed into the rear car of the section. This car is said to have been the Washington, D.C., sleeper, and was well filled with passengers. Most of the killed and injured were in this car, A spe- cial engine and car with several physicians on board were sent from this city to the scene of the wreck immediately aftor the report reached this city.

Second section of No. 9, western express, had stopped at New Florence for orders, A fiagman was sent back to warn the third section or the mail train, also coming from the east. A dense fog ob- seured everything and the mail train ran past the flagman and into the rear of the second section of No.9. It is reported that the sleep- ing car caught fire and was almost totally con- sumed. The locomotive and tw@ express cars were very badly smashed up. THE Foo TO BLAME. Later.—The accident was caused by the heavy fog, which prevented the engineer from seeing the first sectlon in time to stop his train. The first sectioh of the western express is made up of Pullman sleepers and day coaches. It left New York last evening and was due in at 745 o'oleok this known as train No, 9 At Washington sleeper was attached. ‘The second section is known as train No. 7, and is composed of baggage, express and mailcara, It runs im- mediately behind No. 9. The first section was due at New Florence at 546 am.. but it was 6:37 when the train reached that station. The fog was so dense ‘that the engincer did not notice the red signal in the tower till after he had passed. He then slowed up and went back for his orders, He then pulled ahead slowly. In the meantime the an of No. 9 had gone back to signal No. 7, He has not been heard from since and it is supposed he was not able to get back far enough to stop the second sec- tion, as the engine of No. 7 came crashing into the Washington sleeper “Biscay,” telescoping it to the distance of from ten to twelve feet. ‘The sleeper caught fire and was nearly de- stroyed. The “‘Achates.” the next sleeper, was thrown from the track, but not badly damaged. PASSENGERS PANIC STRICKEN. The scene following the collision was excit- ing in the extreme. The passengers became panic stricken, and in their efforts to get out broke the windows and crawled through. The horror and fright of the passengers in the “Biscay” as the engine plunged into them was added to by the fog, which was close in upon and made it near to impossible to see = er happened. The car caught fire speedily, but the passengers were removed be- tore their condition was made more horrible by burns, “The hiss of the escaping steam in the wreck- age of the car, the crackling of the flames, the mingling of the rank smoke with the fog,” said the porter of the Biscay, ‘made the most | awful combination you could imagine. There were the injured passengers screaming and groaning and those who were not hurt were rushing around half dressed, almost wild with fright. I don’t want to talk any more about it just pow.” RESCUING THE VICTIMS, As quickly as possible the passengers in the unfortunate “Biscay” were removed. It was found that two had been killed outright and eleven others more or less seriously injured. At least four of the injured, it is thought, will die, They were conveyed to houses in the vicinity and everything possible done to relieve their sufferings, The uninjured passengers arrived in this city shortly before noon, Singularly enough there was but one injured person on train No. 7. Fireman Pitcairn has a 8 serious cut on his head and his lips were split open, Engineer Menry McCormick was shaken up considerably, but was not hurt otherwise.
