As to who is responsible for the open switch which was the cause of the wreck the railroad officlals are still un- certain. A careful examination of the switch to-day showed that it was in perfect condition. Detectives are working on the case. Trainmen are of the opinion that the crew of the Twentieth Century was de- ceived by a second white light one hun- dred feet beyond the switch which was speed were unable to gauge the distance and mistook the second light for the first one. WRECK NOT DUE TO SPEED. ‘W. H. Marshall, general manager of the Lake Shore, believes the speed of the train was not a contributory cause to the wreck. He said that other Lake Shore trains travel through Mentor at a speed equal to that attained by the Twentieth Century last night which was not, Mr. Marshall said, above the rate | of sixty miies an hour. The schedule for the train called for a speed of fifty-seven miles an hour at that point. The wreck had no effect on the sale of tickets for the same train-to-night, the full quota allotted to this city hav- ing been sold long before the time of the train’s departure. Coroner York of Lake County an- nounced this evening that the inquest would begin next Monday morning at 9 o'clock at the Courthouse in Painesville. He says he will summon officials of the railroad company to testify. A peculiar feature of the wreck is that all those who met death were either burned or scalded. R. C. Cordeaugh of New York City is only slightly hurt. Six bodles were taken from the wreck; three more were found in the wreckage to-day, and ten per- sons died in Cleveland hospitals. The only means of identifying the body of E. E. Naugle of Chicago was his ini- Communication with a tailoring-house established his identity. - Of the two unldentified bodies there is not the slightest means of identifica- tion. The family of I. A. Johnson, a prominent millinery goods manufacturer | of this city, stood before the two charred bodies in @ Morgue to-day trying to dis- cern something about the objects that might tell which of them is their hus- band and father. IDENTIFYING THE DEAD. The body of L. M. Efrick, manager of Kelth's Theater, was identified by the finding of his gold watch jmbedded in his charred body. The cases of the watch had been melted together. They were pried open and bis name was found en- graved upon the inside of the case. His wife saw the name and fell in a faint. The body of Mechling was identified by his eyeglasses. The first death to-day of the injured {of Mrs. was that of H. H. Wrignt of the G. M. Featherstone Foundry and Machinery Company, of Chicago. Other deaths fol- lowed at intervals of half an hour ‘or longer until noon, when the list of badly injured had been exhausted. Thirty pouches of mail were carried on the train, twenty from Chicago and ten from Cleveland. ‘Some of the bags were caught in the flames, but their contents were only partly burned, and much of the mail matter has been saved. It was resorted, repouched and sent east to-day by clerks from the Cleveland postoffice. The Twentieth Century Limited passed through Mentor at 9:24 to-night, on time with the schedule and running.at high | speed. A large crowd.was at the station to sea the train pass. —_—— . PASSENGER TRAIN DERAILED. Twenty-Nine Persons Are Injured in a “Wreck In Colorado. DEN R, June 22.—Westbound passen- ger train No. 5 on the Denver and Rlo Grande Railroad was wrecked to-day at Pinto, a small station about sixty miles west of Grand Junction, Colo., but no fatalities 'resulted. The accident was caused by a broken bolt in the frog of the switch. Four coaches were derailed and twenty-nine passengers were slightly injured. The following are among the in- Jured: Emil Richart, bruised on head and arm; Ottmar Richart, foot contused; Mrs. C. Ford, right hand bruised; R. Reynolds, right shoulder and wrist bruised; Matilda Jensen, hurt on head; Jacob Ferguson, right side bruised; John Gudgon, head, face and legs scratched; R. Orr, both wrists cut: H. C.

Accident to Flyer Causes Change in the Running Time. NEW YORK, June 22.—President Newmann of the New York Central and Lake Shote ml;oldéalam to-day that the twhr ty-ndir $eiiddile’of the Twen- tieth Century Limited; train. on the New York Central and Lake Shore will be restored at ‘once in place of the eighteen-hour schedule, on which the train had been running for only a few davs. President Newmahn sald: _ “Since the sad accident which has oc- curred on the Lake Shore I have had a consultation with the operating offi- cials, who have explained that the ac- cident was caused by a misplaced switch and was not due to the speed of the train, and they assure me that the present schedule can be safely and easily maintained. While I agree with the operatifig officials that there‘is no physical reason why the schedule should not be continued, nevertheless in my ‘judgment the time of the Twen- tieth Century Limited ‘should be re- stored to the twenty hours, and it will be done at once. Until the new sched-, ule can be arranged’ the Twentieth Century Limited train will leave New York at 3:30 p. m. and Chicago at 2:30 p. m., as at present, but will run on a twenty-hour schedule, arriving at either terminal two hours later than at present.” Seventeen of the ~passengers 'who were on board th Twentieth Century Limited train wrecked last night at Mentor, Ohio, arrived here this after- noon. L. J. Kennedy of San Francisco was a member of the party. YOTERS OF SONOMA WANT NEW CITY HALL Town to Be Bonded for the Money Needed to Build Structure. Special Dispatch to The Call. " SBONOMA, June 22.—The historic old town of Sonoma is wild with excitement to-night as the result of the elction to- day. Citizens voted to issue '$10,00 in bonds to build a new City fall to cost §16,300, the amount now on hand for that purpose being $6300. The proposition car- ried by a vote of 125 to 1T Bonfires were lighted, anvils roared and the Sonoma brass band, with a crowd of elated citizens, paraded about the his- toric plaza and bear flagpole. The new municipal building’ will be an imposing two-story structure of gray basalt trimmed_with red basalt. FINDS BLOODY KNIFE NEAR SCENE OF CRIME 4 Sheriff Thinks He Has Clew to Murderers of Woman and Grandson. - STOCKTON, June 22.—A young man named William Crail this morning found near the place where the' body of Chester Maker was discovered: last Wednesday a bloody knife on which are initials cor- responding with those of the man who it 1s sald directed Sherift Norman to the body of the murdered boy. The Amador Sheriff is now looking for the man.

TWO ARMIES - NOW EQUAL IN STRENGTH Oyama, Having Cleared His Immediate Front of the Russians, Is Now Ready for a General Attack TEMPORARY LULL IN'THE OPERATIONS |Retirement .of Lineviteh’s Advance Guards to Main Line of . Intrenchments | Is Somewhat Hurried | ST. PETERSBURG, June 2.—News | from the battlefield is extremely meager. A press telegram of Tuesday's date speaks: of a ‘“rear guard action,” and there are rumors in the city that the i’ Russian army is retreating, but thelatest dispatches recelved from Lieutenant Gen- eral Linevitch, bearing ‘the same date, declared briefly that the Japanese ad- vance had paused. A dispatch from Gunshu Pass of Wed- nesday’s date says that the operations of the Japanese apparently ended after the | last fight and they appeared to be merely ciearing thelr ‘immediate front. It is probable that the Russlan advance lines- are-crossing- the railroad-and will continue their retirement more or less hurriedly in order to avold being flanked and pocketed until the positions at Sip- inghal are reached. The main forces seemingly are not'yet in collision. Colonel Lodygensky, one of the corre- spendents of the Assoclated Press, has | died in Harbin of blood poisoning. GUNSHU PASS, Manchuria, Wednes- day, June 21.—The operations of the Jap- | anese during the last five days, which at first were thought to be portentous, ap- parently ended after the last fight. The Japanese appear to be merely clearing their immediate front. There is now no. reason for any further delay in_beginning the great battle, as the opposing armies are essentially equal. The Russian troops are under the im- pression ~that -an -advance.is .about to be ordered. Correspondents are not allowed to refer to the séntiments of the army concerning the peace proposals. The heads of the various armies have adopted a bellicose attitude; espectally since the opening of peace riegotiations were reported hege. SR SR WITTE MAY YET BE ¥AMED. Count Cassini Will Not Be One of the Russian ‘Plenipotertiaries. §T. PETERSBURG, June 22.—The Russ says it is authorized~té say thgt Count, Cassiny, the retizing Russian Ent bassador at Washington, will nét par. ticipate in_the peace negotiations, but Will leave the-United ‘States” fmmediate- 1y on.the arrival gof Bayon Rosen, his successor. > The chancellories .of St. Petersburg ‘and Pokio are occupled with the: sélec- tion “of the plenipotentiaries. It can now be regarded as settled that -they will nymber three on each side. An im- portant consideration requiring adjust- ment is the desire of each country to appoint negotiators of equal rank, and this increases the probabllity that Witte, President of the Committee of Ministers, will be one of the Russian plenipotentiaries if Japan names “the Marquis Ito, President of the Japanese Privy Council. It is possible that Nelidoff, the Rus- sian Embassador at Paris, may not go to Washington. As dean of the Russian diplomatic corps he was the first choice of the Foreign Office, but he is of ad- vanced age and his health is not robust. Besldes, Nelidoff is an exceedingly bad saflor and it is still an open question whether he may not ask to be relieved of his mission. In such an event it is considered certain that Baron Rosen ‘would be appointed. W d ‘WASHINTON, June 22.—Count Cas- sini, the Russian Embassador, announced at the time of the appointment of Baron Rosen as his successor that he would sail for Europe soon after the arrival of Baron Rosen, about July 5. Coéunt Cassinf's plans have never.been changed since then. He has not yet fixed finally the exact date for his.departure, but ex- pects to get away probably.thesweek fol- lowing Baron Rosen's arriyal, unless Anstructions arrive:in the.meantime. il v sy HEAVY -LOSSES OF-RUSSIANS. Dr. Schaefer, German Army Surgeon, Reports His Observations. BERLIN, June 22.—Dr. Schaefer, who went to Manchuria in 1904 in behalf of the German military medical authorities, has made a report-to the general staff, which Chief Surgeon von Leuthold has Just communicated to the German Surgi- cal Soclety. Dr. Schaefer reports that the percentage of Russian losses was un- cent of their fighting sirength. A large proportion ‘of the wounds were in the head, owing to the detefisive fighting be- hind breastworks. The proportion of the dead to the wounded ranged from one to four to one to six. Mosp of the deaths were due to ‘the heavy artillery firing. An unusual number of siege guns of the largest caliver ‘and ship guns evidently were_employed by the Japanese, includ- ing the captured Russian'guns. The great number of. the Russian wounded, especially during the retreats, caused the surgeons to be heavily over- worked, they often operating two and three days without rest or sleep.

HARD FIGHT PROMISED. It was also admitted yesterday shat while the direct line of the Western Pa- are already sufveying for branch lines, 'with a view. of reaching the timber belts of the north and the fruit districts of the .scuth as. far as Fresno. It s no longer a secret that wherever there is a chance of invading . Southern Pacific territory with assuring results in the way of traffic the Western Paclfic proposes to build a/ fline. Ay 3 » o It was learned from a reliable New York source yesterday.tnat for many months E. H:. Harriman and George Gould were holding conferences in . that city in an effort to arrive at some un- derstanding wherein the Goulds would abandon the Western rallroad project, but these meetings are said to have re- sulted only in the widening of the breach between the two magnates, who finally adjourned their conference muttering bit- ter threats against each other’s enter- prises. Within a mohth it is expected that-a general manager, a purchasing agent and other necessary officials for the new road will be chosen and new office : quarters rented in San Francisco. President Jeffery will probably. not come to San Francisco until George Gould re- tdrns from Europe, when a general sur- vey of the situation will be made. ‘With the possibility of a war between Harriman and Gould becoming a cer- tainty railroad men throughout this coun- try look forward to a time in the mnear future when the Goulds will have a Pa- cific Ocean steamship service competing with the Pacific Mail and the Occldental and Oriental lines and operating in con- junetion . with the Gould overland route from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Vice President Barnett said last night that- the beginning of the construction work would begin very soon. The new mortgage will be executed by President Jeffery in New York and will be filed for record in a few days. Interim bonds have been authorized and will be im- mediately issued. The executive com- mittee of the road, which is composed of President Jeffery, General Counsel Bartnett, J. F. Vaile, A. H. Calef and Jesse White, will hold its future meet- ings in New York City. B. M. Bradford will act as secretary of the, railroad corporation at this end of the line, and L. R. Bush has been ap- pointed assistant secretary, with head- quarters in New York.
