. fh ‘ | ; west vs TWENTY-THREE DEAD, NINE HURT PASSENGER TRAIN DASHES INTO A FREIGHT STANDING ON 2 “MAIN LINE. FAULT OF FREIGHT ENGINEER 4 epee 3, OVERSTAYED HIS TIME FOR SOME REASON NOT YET EXPLAINED. Washington, July 8. — Twenty-four persons were killed and nine persons injured in a head-on collision on the Virginia Midland division of the South- ern railway at Rockfish, Va., yester- day afternoon. A passenger train dashed into a local freight standing on the main line of the road at that point, wrecking both engines and, the baggage car and express cars of the passenger train. The baggage car and the second-class passenger coach immediately following it telescoped. The coach was occupied mostly by colored people, nineteen of whom were killed. The freight train was in charge of Conductor Burbeck and Engineer Hale, and at the time of the accident was on the return run from Lynch- burg to Charlottesville. Rockfish sta- tion is midway between the two points and the track there is a single one. Engineer Hale had orders to get out of the way of the fast passenger train, but for some reason which has not yet been explained, he had overstayed his time six minutes. The trains came together with a terrible crash and a fearful scene of panic ensued when the occupants of the. cars realized what had occurred. It is estimated here that there were in all probably 120 passengers on the train, including those from Boston and intermediate points. THEY WOULD KEEP COCKRAN.

SCARE FOR LEGATION. Another Outbreak Feared in Chinese Capital. Cologne, July 8. — A dispatch from St. Petersburg to the Cologne Gazette says that the Gouvernements Zeitung; published at Vlago- yostchensk, published the following dispatch from Pekin, which should be taken with’all reserve: $ “The legations have again taken precautions for eventualities. Quanti- ties of provisions have been hurriedly stored in the legation buildings and the guards have been reinforced. The European governments have received disquieting information.” The same paper says it is uncredi- bly reported that the American lega- tion at Pekin has urgently asked as- sistance from Washington. Popular 4eeling in China is once more assum- ing a highly dangerous character and a fatal explosion may result at any time. EDITORS GATHER AT.OMAHA.

Des Mcines, Iowa, July 8. — Ab- stracts of assessments from ninety- one of the ninety-nine counties show the assessment of Iowa farm lands for’ 1903 is over $190,000,000 higher than in 1902. The-average»per county ex- ceeds $2,000,000 and the increase will be $200,000,000 for thesstate. There is great diserepancy in the valuation of lands. In counties that adjoin in somo instances the assessed actual value per acre in one is nearly twice what it is in another. The state board of review, when it meets this month, is expected to correct these’ differences. The increased farm land assessment points to.a heavy increase in the rail- road assessment. It will have to be at least $10,000,000 to keep pace with the increase on lands. SEVERE HAILSTORMS. Standing Grain Has Probably Been Damaged Considerably.

Butte, Mont., July 8—Miss Kather- ine Atwood, a society leader of this city, has had a thrilling battle with a race horse owned by herself. The an- imal was ugly when the woman ap- peared at his stall. He had been al- lowed to go hungry several hours, and he took no pains to conceal his resent- ment. As Miss Atwood entered the stall the horse made a rush at her and bit her severely on the right arm. The woman, instead of fainting, procured a pitchfork and returned to the at- tack. For ten minutes the battle raged. At last the woman struck the horse a heavy blow over the eyes, af- ter which he ceased fighting and gave in to his mistress. The woman is bad- ly bitten. After her wounds had been dressed she saddled the horse and in- sisted on putting him through his paces out on the track, making a half- mile in :52.

Depredations of Horse Thieves Calls for Vigorous Action.

The men living near Dawson, Two Dot, Castle and Allen’s have been the heaviest losers, and the ranchers are threaten- ing to hang the horse thieves to the nearest tree in case they can be cap- tured. One of the peculiarities of the band is that it has two advance agents who do nothing except travel around the countfy spotting the fine horses. RAILROAD GIVES UP. The Sing Hole Is Too Near Like 'the Bottomless Pit. Superior, Wis., July 8—The Hines logging road sinkhole has been given up as a bad job. It is probably one of the largest sinkholes ever found on any railroad line in any part of the country. It is located in the soft ground near Aminicon lake, south of Superior, and is in the neighborhood of fifty-eight feet in depth, as far as can be learned, and 200 feet each way. The train. that started to cross the track over the sinkhole never got across. So much gravel was put in without result that it was given up as a bad job and the lumber road will go | around the hole instead of over it. CAMPERS POISONED.

Blinded by Blow Snake. Augusta, Wis., July 8.—Eugene Her- rell, a farmer living four miles from Augusta saw a snake, which he killed. In a few minutes his head felt so bad he went the house and telephoned for the doctor, but by the time the lat- ter arrived, which was less than half an hour, Herrell was raving insane and blind. He was quieted and is able to recognize these around him py their voice, but cannot see yet. The snake was a blow snake, ee Extortion Charged. Des Moines, Iowa, July 8.—The le- gal status of the fees received by the state auditor for the examination of insurance companies will be made the subject of an inquiry by the attorney general in view of the report which has been made to the state executive council indicating that the fees re ceived for insurance examinations the past four or five years have been in many cases extortionate. — Engineer Killed. _ Detroit, Minn., July 8—The North Coast limited was wrecked ,here and Engineer Mason was killed.
