It entered the long train shed running at a moacrate rate of speed. The en-| gineer had slowed up just previous to entering the shed and was run-~ ning along as usual, so as to place the pilot of the engine up against the bumpers before stopping. When the engire ran to the bum- per the air brakes were applied, but would aot work and the momentum of the heavy .rain drove the engine against the bumper, which was knocked down, Ploughed Through ‘whe engine then plowed into the Masonry. | masonry and the fron fence sepa- rating the train shed from the wait- dng rooms.

Women screamed, chil'ren began crying and. ft required -cod work by the police to prevent the people from crushing each other in their efforts to get out of the narrow doors. The force of the collision was so Great that nassengers in the train | ‘were thrown from their seats, against | the sides of the -.r and to the aisles. | Many of the pasengers were standing | fm the aisles preparatory to leaving tht train and these were jammed at the door. Besides the three serlous!y injured, several women were burt in the crush. | The Boston Express is one of the) heaviest trains entering the station, To-day it consisted of ten cars, be- sides baggage and dining cars, and was drawn by engine No. 408, oom and there was a| 500 Passengers o1 Train, | The engineer is unable to explain|many special guards nas necessitated | garter the fullure of the brakes to work, He tried the air shortly before en-| tering the station and found it to} be all right.

H OPERATORS TO STARVE OUT MINERS Policy of the Coal Barons Is to Keep on Waiting Until Hunger Breaks the Back of the Strike. Despite the tremendous suffering and loss inflicted upon the people by the refusal of the operators to sub- mit the coal strike troubles to arbi- tration, and notwithstanding the uni- versal demand to end the struggle, the coal kings are still defiant. They have decided to starve their miserable employees into submission no matter how badly the people of the United States may suffer during the process, This view was tersely expressed to- day by President Truesdale. President Truesdale, of the Dela- ware, Lackawanna & Western Rail- road, representing the coal opera- tors, said: “Our position has in no way changed. It is simply that we are still - waiting, “We will continue to wait until such time as the men are ready to return to work.’’ —_——. NON-UNION MINERS QUIT UNDER FIRE, WILKESBARRE, Pa., Aug. 2.—The Butler washery and the Dodge colliery of the D. L. & W. Company, in which operations had recently been resumed, were closed to-day by striking miners. At the Butler washery the men marched out in @ body.

SARATOGA RACE TRACK, Aug. 2.— George Wheelock, President of the Met- ropolltan Turf Association, sald this afternoon that he regretted that the association could not take any action in the braw! which happened between Leo Meyer and Joe Ullman on Broad- way last night. Mr. Wheelock sald the affair was disgraceful, but It had oc- curred outside the race course and the association has no jurisdiction. There is a great deal of feeling against Uliman In the ring. It is not so much against Uliman personally as against the Western capital that has been dumped Into the ring. The Eastern layers, most of whom back on individual capital, resent the intrusion of the Westerners. Ullman handles most of the big money in the ring. He stands ready to take a com- miasion of any size, and when a jump of $10,000 or $15,000 goes to him the others get no business, Racing went on over a heavy track again this afternoon, and as a conse- quence the flelds were cut down consid- jerably.

Right, in this case, is unquestionably with the men, who are battling for living wages.

It delayed the Superbas several hours nd they had just time enough to throw in a hasty meal and jump into their uniforms. "Hanlon did not bring Catcher Delsel with him from Redtown, although he was very sweet on the amateur, who gertainly helped Ned out in a bad pinch. Joe Wall, let out by McGraw a week ago, reported to Hanlon this morning and was pressed Into service behind the bat to recelve the benders of Frank Kitson, whose turn i¢ was to do slab duty. ‘Tho letting out of Jack O'Connor Is the talk of Smoketown, Barney Dreyfuss hut his gates on his old backstop to- t nobody should ccept a ticket from him if he paid for out with a statement all wrong, and that he will get his salary for the rest of the season. Charley Bbbets joined the Trolley- Dodgers this morning. He had nothing to say about players for next year ex- cept that everything was satisfactory. This would indicate that he had cor- raled a few stars while he was under cover. The Superbas put a poor team in the field to cope with the Champions, and their chances of taking a game here were mighty thin Tan 1 and Doheny, paws in Fred Clarke's twirlers, warmed up for the first game.

The proprietor fire and the lives of 2,000 children were in danger. of the Herbert Hotel, directly across the street, re- Porteu that the fire had gained such headway that the cupola of the building had fallen in. He stated that he believed all the children had been gotten out in safety. The fire started shortly before 5 o'clock and was thought by the officers of the institution to have been gotten under control. ‘There was a strong wind blowing and the blaze spread through the corridors, enveloping every- thing in smoke. TWO ALARMS SENT IN. Two alarms were immediately sent in and after the engines arrived spe- cial alarms were sent from the Unionport and West Farms roads calling out extra engines. . The building is a four-story brick structure and covers a large area. It is built as an “1,” and people in the neighborhood say that plenty of time was afforded the children to escape from the blaze. ‘The Catholic Protectory consists of two departments, the male and te- male. Each is a considerable distance from the other and it {s not believed the fire can be communicated to the female department, ‘The firemen worked heroically to contine the blaze to the main portion of the building. Immediately on the arrival of the engine companies men were despatched to search the dormitories to arouse any sleeping children, ILL CHILDREN REMOVED, The chiJdren who were in the hospital il] were quickly removed from the building and were made comfortable in the outbuildings surrounding the place. Four alarms have been turned in up to 6 o'clock, The police and fire- men report that all the children have been safely gotten out. Patrol wagons have been sent to the Protectory to take the obildren to other institutions. Since the three large fires in the industrial buildings of the Protectory, it is now one of the largest Institutions of its kind in the country. The boys’ department contains upward of 2,000 members and the girls’ about 1,500, The boys and girls’ quarters are separated by the lower end of the main street of Westchester, and except at the religious ceremonies and on such FEE AT Lal were present with Lawyer Lamb while Power was correcting his testi- mony, sald they had no further ques- Uons to ask Mr. Power and agreed that he should be released, “Of cow T am agreeable to bis °," said Lawyer Lamb, smiling- ly, turning to Marshal Henkel. “All right, Peter; guess I haven't anything more to do with you,” said Marshal Henkel, | ‘The lawyers present understood that Judge Lacombe had purged Pow- er of contempt and that he would not again be brought before the court, The End tw Not Yet, The “Vanishing Plain- tiff” inthe Northern - The end of the famous litigation. | wivich took a sensational turn with the | Pacific Merger Case exposure of the parties back of tho | suits by Attorney Lamb and his plaintift Is Purged of Con- has not been reached, W. ‘ke Cockran, Banker Edward R. »nas and the members of the broker- firm yntent & Company, who | were mentioned by Lamb as parties ta- terested in the HUgation, will doubtless Power, the “vanishing” plain | be at naed by Lawyer Guthrie for tempt of Court.
