The nearest medical ald was a mile and a half distant, and those persons who were least Injured aided the others and did all possible until the arrival of relief trains bringing nurses, doctors and sol- | aters from Bilboa. to the river bed, the coaches piling up in | a mass of splintered wood and iron work. | The scene is described as horrifying. Many corpses were carried down the | stream, which was actually reddened with blood. It was found impossible to extri- | cate numbers of the injured who were | pinioned under the wreckage. A railway | guard was arrested In the act of robbing the dead and narrowly escaped lynch- ing It is believed that the official figures un- der-estimate the number of killed.

BI-CENTENNIAL OF WESLEY’S BIRTH MARKED BY IMPRESSIVE SERVICES Commemorative Ceremonies Are Held in the Methodist Episcopal Churches and Able Discourses Are Delivered Upon the Life, |Queries Bearing on Com- Lessons and Teachings of the Great Founder of Their Faith HE two hundredth anniversary of the birth of John Wesley, the great scholar, evangelist and or- | | | ganizer, was celebrated yesterday | in every city, town and hamlet throughout the world where there are ad- herents of the Methodist Episcopal | church. Thirty-two milllon people now | belong to this faith, and a great portion of these listened yesterday to powerful | discourses upon his life and character and joined in singing the beautiful hymns | of his creation. The services in this city were of the | most impressive character. All the differ- ent churches of the denomination named were crowded. There were elaborate floral | decorations and in| all instances choirs | were augmented. | At the Central Church the Rev. Herbert | | F. Briggs chose [for his subject “Wesley | and His Work,” and gave a veny ex- | haustive talk on the subject.

The estate of Peter James Donahue is | a very rich one and includes many valu- | able properties in California, which he ‘abandonvd as his home some ycars ago when he went abroad. It represents a part of the fortunes which three hard working men created from their tofl in | the early days of California. Way back | in the '50’s Michael Donahue, a foundry- | man, father of James Peter Donahue, who is here from Davenport; James Don- ahue, a boiler-maker, father of Peter James Donahue, over whose guardianship | the relatives are now wrangling, and | Peter Donahue, a machinist, father of the | late Mervyne J. Donahue, founded what Ils now known as the Union Iron Works, or rather Michael created the institution and took into it as partners his two brothers. WEALTH GOES TO COUSINS. Michael Donahue in 1856 left the city and went to live in Davenport, where his son grew up in business and eventually became one of the leading men of that ! city. The three brothers finally passed away, willing their wealth and enter- | prises to their children. Some years ago Mervyne Donahue died, and his sister, Baroness von Schroeder, inherited the bulk of his fortune. It was these fatali- ties that brought the Baroness and her two cousins, Peter James and James Peter, into close business relations, and through interests inherited from their mother, sister of the late Peter Donahue, the children of Mrs. Burke also became | assoclated in a business way with the three cousins. It is simply in the interest of his chil- dren that Burke now figures in opposition | to the Baroness’ petition for guardianship | papers. James P. Donahue is sald to | have no particular interest in the trou- { bles of the opposing relatives other than to aid in assuring himself that the absent cousin’s affairs will be properly cared for and that Peter, if necessary, will have the attention to which he is entitled and can well afford to have, e e———— !

The PRESIDENT SEEKS PEAGE AND QUIET Few Callers Will Be Re- ceived at Oyster Bay. OYSTER BAY, L. I, June 28.—President Roosevelt passed a quiet SBunday with his family at his Sagamore Hill home. Dur- ing the afternoon some relatives and per- sonal friends called to extend their greet- ings to the President and his family. The President, accompanied by Mrs. Roose- velt and their children, attended service this morning in Christ C.urch, of which Mrs. Roosevelt is a member. At the con- clusion of the service the members of the parish paid their respects to the chief ex- ecutive. It is announced by Secretary Loeb that the President will recelve few callers at “ons for the sake of prejudicy well as the laity. | incited by Sagamore Hill this summer, and those Bible was his handbook and was memorized from childhood. What is to become of our children if we let them grow up without God, without reverenc without devotion, without churchly habits? We are face to face with a problem of irreverense and the absence of moral standard In young Wesley whs a man of strong cofi- victions and absolufely the courage of them. Reared in the prejudices of a high churchman and maintaining all their follles with the tenacity worthy of a better cause, he read Lord King on the primitive church and verified his- torical references, and from that moment he gave up his high church presudices, declaring that the position was untenable; it never had been vroven and never could be’ proved. When Thomas Maxwell turned preacher and Wesley had himself heard him, he at once ac- cepted the call of .this uneducated, unordained man as of God. Why do we hold on to opin- or consistency. falsely so-called, when we have better light upon them? Wesley had the courage to at- tempt the impossible. Every one was fast fall- ing from the light and life of the reformation Wesley dared undertake to turn back the awful flood of unspirituality, skeptielsm and immorality which largely infected the clergy as DRIVEN FROM CHURCHES. He was driven from the churches and subject- ed to violence everywhere at the hands of mobs his brother clergymen. But none of these things moved him, and to the work of this young man (a small man physically, for he never weighed more than 125 pounds In his life, but mighty In his intellect. his nhallrr‘ ship, his spirituality and in his high purposes) look at the results to-day. Thirty-two million | Methodists in the world stand as a monument to_his great work. In 1865 our church. school and publishing | property amounted to $35,000,000.° To-day it is | 00,060, and If the next general conference | ill give us ten new Bishops of the strongest | men in Methodism, who are not over 45 yenri. of age, and elect them for eight years instead of tor life, before the end of their term we will reach an imcrease of 50 per cent on our | present number. We want manly, colossal leadership to achieve our mission. who hope to see him will be obliged to| make engagements through Loeb in ad- | vance of their arrival at Oyster Bay. The | President will devote his mornings to the | transaction of executive business and his | afternoons to recreation and rest. During | the afternoons, too, he will receive such | callers as may have engagements with | him, or those whom he may summon to | Sagamore Hill. | The executive offices selected for Secre- | taries Loeb and Barnes and the clerical force this vear are muchwmore commodi- ous and convenient than those occupied last year. They consist of six rooms in the second story of the Moore block and are well arranged and admirably adapted to the purposes of the executive staff. The | desks and other furnitupe of the offices are chiefly those which were used in the executlve offices of the old White House. | —_——— Pastor Leaves the Ministry. SEATTLE, June 28.—The Rev.

The treaty also provides that Great Britain must be fu nished with a list of custom-houses, co: great diversity of opinion. The treaty commissioners estimated their number at from eighteen to twenty-five, while ex- perts in the inland trade say the customs stations number at present a thousand. If article 8 becomes operative the British officials in China will require to redouble their vigilance, but it will probably not operate, because Great Britain will obtain the advantages in the American treaty under the most favored nation clause. —————————— | FOUND WITH A BULLET HOLE IN HIS TEMPLE Tennessee Lumber Man Commits Sui- cide in ‘the Smoking Car of a Railway Train.

June 28.—One of the pleasure parties of which officers of the French cruiser Protet have formed a part during their days of pleasure here came near ending fatally to at least one of the officers to as well as to thé Consular agent of the French Government here and his son to-day. A party of the French officers wers guests of A. Blochman, the Consular agent, and of his sén, L. A. Blochman, both bankers, at dinner at the latter's home on Florence Helghts, ahd were .to nclude the dinner with a drive to Point Loma, where they were to ipspect the homestead and grounds of the Theosophi- cal Society of America by invitation of Mrs. Katherine Tingley. The party was in -a tally-ho and was composed of Commodore Adigard of the French Pacific squadron, Lieutenants Ta- dic and Moysan, Ensigns Vircent and Ta- batier, Paymaster Ducorps and Midship- man Patit of the cruiser, A. Blochman and wife. L. A. Blochman and wife and Miss Goldtree On the way to Point Loma the road passed over the Old Town flats and the roadway Is not as wide as it might be, beside which the ground on either side is exceedingly seft. At the narrowest part of the road the party was met by am auto- mobile. The tally-ho was driven. to one side to permit the machine to pass, but the wheels sank into the soft earth and the big carryall was overturned. There was no one In the party who escaped Injury, but while most of them were only slightly bruised, Lieutenant Moysan and the two Blochmans,” father and son, were seriously hurt. L. A. Bloech- man was caught beneath the vehicle, and besides being badly brulsed about the face and body, had his right lég broken in four places, both bones being fracturéd be- tween the ankle and knee about four inches apart. The eider Blochman had both arms sptained and his left shoulder hurt | Lieutenant Moysan had his -kiies wrenched. and almost unjointed, so that he fainted with pain and was not brought back to consclousness until he had been taken- to the wharf and carried aboard the cruiser. The automobile, which had in part been responsible for the accident, stoed by and brought the injured péople to .the eity, later returning for the others, for the tal- ly-ho was entirely out of commission for the time being.
