two coal gondolas was rushed to Metz.
In charge of John E. Ktnville. con
ductor; William Foster. engineer;
Arthur Lee. fireman, and William Bart
lett, brakeman. As rapidly as possible
the people and their goods were loaded
Into the cars. Some refused to aban

have left earlier and have reached
Alpena In safety. When the train
finally started there were about 100
frightened people aboard.
The flames were already sweeping;
through the village.
Foster started his train for Alpena.
Nearlng Nowlckl crossing, he saw
biasing piles of cedar ties on both
sides of the track. Opening wide the
throttle he tried to dash through at
full speed, but the heat had loosened

Bartlett sprang into the water tank be
hind the engine, only to be literally boiled
to death as the flames swept over It.

through the fire and smoke and were the
first to ' reach the village of Posen and
they reported the wreck and asked for
assistance from here.
Behind them straggled a burned and
wounded procession of refugees from the
wrecked train. It was a fearful march
over the hot ties with the flames from
the burning woods on either side of tlie
track roaring and snapping In their

Foster was terribly burned about the
head and face, but It Is thought that he

MRS. TUCKER" WILL WAIT
Determined to Prosecute Husband
as Soon as He Recovers.
CHICAGO. Oct 16. States Attorney
Healy today stated, following a con
ference with Haynie R. Pearson, at
torney for Mrs. William F. Tucker,
that no action would be taken against
Colonel Tucker In the courts, pending
the result of the latter's Illness. Mr.
Pearson said that the charge of wife
abandonment was withdrawn yester
day by Mrs. 'Tucker to clear the way
for an Indictment by the grand Jury
and subsequent extradition proceed
ings. "Since then," Mr. Pearson said. "I
have received a.copy of the War De
partment order directing Colonel
Tucker to proceed to the Government
Hospital at Hot Springs. I am also
Informed that the patient's condition
is critical and hence agree with Mr.
Healy that this Is not the time for an
Indictment. This course meets with
the approval of Mrs. Tucker, who,
however. Is anxious to vindicate her
self of any misapprehensions which
may have found lodgment in the pub
lic mind."

Sure Taft Is Labor's Friend.
"The White House. Washington. Oct.
15. My Dear Mr. Dolan: I have your
letter of the 13th Instant and am much
pleased with the copy of the article
for your Journal which you Inclosed.
Indeed, you may rest assured that. If
I did not believe that Taft would oc
cupy Just the position toward organ
ized labor that I have tried to occupy
and in which you and I believe, then,
fond though I am of him. I would not
back him. As you know, I have never
for one moment hesitated to oppose
organized labor on any point where 1
thought organized labor was wrong;
but Just as little do I hesitate to stand
up for organized labor when I think It
Is right.
"The administration can well afford to
stand on its record of positive accom
plishment for organized, labor, and, as'
regards the Isthmus of Panama, where
we have much to do with organized labor,
that record Is Taft's. You yourself know
well what the United States Government
has done as regards the workingmen of
the Isthmus; thanks largely to Mr. Taft.
the record of the Government at Panama
Is that of a model employer, both as re
gards wages and hours and as regards
the housing and care of employes .
Labor Would Suffer Most.

Governmental Attempt to Keep Up
Price of Staple Costs Tax
payers $1,000,000.
NEW YORK. Oct. 16. (Special.)
After having sustained -a loss of
$1,003,000, Brazil has abandoned its at
tempt to-corner the worjd's coffee mar
ket. For two years the government of
Sao Paulo, the chief state of Brazil,
has been purchasing coffee from its
planters to keep up the price, now
having on its hands 8,000,000 bags of
coffee. " According to advices received
today in New York, a loan of $75,000,
000, which is necessary to take care of
the present huge accumulation, is soon
to be offered for public subscription.
This corner is regarded as one of the
most interesting, but foolhardy finan
cial experiments ever attempted.
Bumper crops .have followed one an
other, and in 1905 the harvest returned
20,000,000 bags, a surplus over the en
tire world's requirements of 2.000,000
bags. Then the scheme of cornering
the market was planned. In two years
Sao Paulo had purchased from planters
8.000,000 bags, at an average cost of
$10 a bag, which was more than double
the market price.
Money thus spent was borrowed in
the United States at high interest. Now
the various loans are to be consolidated
into one' of $75,000,000.
