Accident Occurs on the Sec- tion Known as Dead Man's Stretch. * e U Spectal Dispatch to The Call. SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. I18.—Dead Man's Stretch, as the section of country betweén Needles and Kingman on the main line of the Santa Fe has come to be known among railway operatives, has of fatalitles, making the third in a series of recent accidents where there has been loss of life. As in the two preceding instances the Santa Fe Limited is the sufferer. An accident occurred this morning and Engineer Fitch of the Limited was killed by the bursting of the locomotive boiler. According to advices that have reached the local office, the Limited east-bound that left here last evening had made the best part of the run through the stretch before the accident happened. McConicho was reached at 6:30 a. m. with Kingman but four miles beyond. The last named station is situated at the extreme east- ern end of the section that is held in dread by Santa Fe trainmen employed in piloting the Limited train, and is the sta- tion for the newly discovered Arizona gold fields. While the train was nearing McConicho the engine exploded, killing Engineer Fitch and injuring Fireman Bland so that his recovery is in doubt. None of the passengers were hurt. After the train had been held up two hours and a half it proceeded on its way. The engine is badly wrecked and the boller is a total loss. Fitch and Bland had been living at Needles. The last named is single and Engineer Fitch is believed to leave a ly.

The merchants refuse to recognize President Castro’s de- cree abolishing Ciudad Bolivar as a port of entry and decline to ship goods via Carupano. 1 The Venezuelan gunboat Miranda went to the district of Nutrias, exacting from the merchants forced contributions and fines amounting to another $50,00. The goods imported during the revolutionary regime were confiscated and doubled duties were imposed. It is reported that President Castro has threatened to anni- hilate the commerce and expel the foreign community of Guayana, on the Orinoco. A reign of terror prevails throughout the district, owing to the extortion, threats and barbarities of the party in power. The entire region of the Orinoco teems with products accumulated during the past two years for which there are no adequate shipping facilities. The native and German firms at Caracas appear to be seeking to control the entire Orinoco import trade. There is no money in the Orinoco country, and the distress {s very great. All the American river boats and interests up the Orinoco are at a stand- still, being unable to move in consequence of President Castro’'s determination to destroy the transshipment trade in Amer- ican and European goods between Trin- idad and Orinoco river country.
