The accident was' caused by a broken rail. The engine passed over the break in safety, but the six cars fol- lowing left the rails, and one of them, the rear Pullman, rolled over on its side and slid down a twenty-five foot embank- ment. Of the forty or more persons in the train not one escaped injury, twelve being severely hurt, some of whom will probably die. The railroad officlals were very prompt in securing surgical aid and in a short time special trains bearing surgeons were hurrying to the scene of the wreck from every available point in Nonhe‘;n Indiana. Lake Shore Mcials also made up a relief train and carried doctors to the relief of the injured. The little hotels at Millersburg and Ben- ton, several miles from the scene of the wreck, were turned into hospitals. No deaths are thus far reported, but some of the injured are in a eritical condition.

It pro- vides for the division of lands in Okla- homa into countles, for the establishment of county seats, for the erection of court- -houses and for the appointment of tem- porary county officials. The resolution of Morgan, coming over from yesterday, declaring the Nicaragua canal ‘bill the unfinished business of tha | Senate, was called up. After Morgan had made a brief statement regarding the e e R ) Safe Insurance. In these days when there is with many companies no attempt to sell lfe insur- ance as such, but speculative insurance in its stead, it is gratifying to those who be- lieve in life insurance to see such a healthy showing as is made by the Con- necticut Mutual Life Insurance Company. Its assets of $66,000,000 have Increased by nearly $11,000,000 since 1385, surplus has Erown from $4,500,000 to over $7,000,000, and | the total amount of insurance in force among its 68,161 policy holders has reached over §161,500,000. During the same fifteen K:ll‘l dividends amounting to $17,200,000 ve been paid to policy holders.
