R SUMMIT, Jan. 2L.—There was a bad freight wreck in tunnel No. 11 on the Southern Pacific line near here early tht morning. Fourteen cars were derailed and several of them were badly demol- | ished. No one was Injured. The train, which was east bound, was | going at moderate speed when the fourth car from the engine left the rails. The remainder of the train followed it. The engine was stopped as soon as possible Truckee for a It arrived at daybreak. The work of clearing the track was slow. owing to the limited amount of working space in the tunnel. Superintendent Jones and Resident En- gineer Robinson made a careful investi- gatlon to determine the cause of the acci- dent. The track was found in good con- dition; the tie was plated and the rail not | worn.” The gauge was all right. In the opinion of the superintendent the derail- ment undoubtedly was due to a defect in the car first leaving the tracks. The car belonged to-the Cudahy Company. The tunnel was cleared at § o clock to- night, when the three belated passenger trains were allowed to go through, FINDS HIS MOTHER AFTER MANY YEARS Ray King, Separated From His Par- ents When a Child, Finally Locates Her.

MANTLA, Jan. 21.—The act establishing | the Department of Public Instruction was | Unanimously passed by the Philippine Commission to-day, after a debate be- | tween Commissioner Moses and Judge Taft over the section permitting religlous instruction in schoolhouses. The Commissioners were lrz‘ (m‘oll' :{o;‘: iginally, but Commissione SO s 2onvinced 1t was not wise and to-day he offered an amendment pro- hibiting the teaching of religious doctrines in school buildings. He declares the com- mission would disregard its instructions concerning the separation of church and state If the “questionable provision’” were enacted. The Commissioner characterized as groundless the fears that Catholic children would not attend the public Schools unless religious instruction were permitted. He claimed the experience with the Philippine schools had already demonstrated this. Referrin to argu- ments of the Central Catholics in favor of Catholic instructors exclusively, Com- missioner Moses insisted that a compfo- Mise was inadvisable when one of the par- ties was predisposed against a compro- mise. Judge Taft offered a substitute permit- ting teaching thrice weekly by priests and ministers to pupils whose parents desired that their children receive such instruc- tion and prescribing the dismissal of s who attempt to influence pupils suspension of the privi- | isters whose teach- teacher: religiously and the leges of priests and min ings create dlsloyalty or disorder. Goncerning the alieged dlsobedience of the administration’s Instructions, Judge Taft said the aquestion would be whether | such use of school bufldings would involve | 2 tax on the people. He cited the facts that the school bufldings in use were being used for political and religious purposes, notwithstanding the opposing attitude of the Federal party Isaders. The Judge said he did not believe a majority of the party | or of the people were opposed to it. He believed the opposition was caused chiefly by fear of ecclesiastical control. The Judge did not belleve the hierarchy of the church would approve of the radteal pronositions of the Central Catholles. TIf experience proved the wisdom of repeal- ing the section it would at least be after the Government had shown that it is neither Protestant nor pro-CatRolic. Commissioner Ide voted with Commis- sloner Moses against Judge Taft on the substitute, explaining that he questioned Wwhether the substitute would accomplish the purpose sought. After the adoption of Commissioner Moses’ amendment the bill was unani- mously passed. Duck-Hunter Is Serlously Injured Near Winters.
