A seri ous street-car collision occBr ' ed ahout noon today, in which nsarly oo people were injur ed, eight of tb-m beiug seriously hurt. The accident was at the point where th- Ha'ght-street cable cars cro&s the F 11 more tl-ietric car line tra-ks. To e-1 ision wan part ly due to tbe Uiit-uodersU nding of new ruieH m-e-itly promu. gut-d by the Ui'hed Railway Coayiiny n garding ri&ht of way at the crow ing. ! .,' The Haight-street ca-, in charge of Gripman Diehl, was going west ward at the, tinae, enr-ying .tally loo people, many f tbem o teir way to the cemeteries to d vr.tii graves.

Fifteen buudred miles of tel-graph line put out of business, 15 000 milos of ' wire grounde ) , 60.000 polls chop ped down and $750,000 worth of telegraph property destroyed is the , record of today's developments io the Pennsylvania-Western Union fight. z-::ZZ History shows no record Of one corporation striking another a blow B tremendous as that dealt today to the Western Union by the Penrij svlvania. It f was deliberately planned and mercilf s-dy deliyertd, In one fell swoop came this eensa . tionally drastic culmination to the fight A. J. Cassatt began more than a year ago to retaliate on George J. Gould, who had dared to invade Pennsylvania territory by pushing the Wabash railroad into Pennsyl vania. ' . The blow fell almost simultane ously in six states Pennsylvania, New York, Virginia and ..West Vir ginia. Fully 8,000 men - distribut ed along nearly 2,500 miles of rail road, were in the work of destruc tion. New axes were stored at con venient points. : When the order came every section gang turned in to demolish the Western Union property.' Thus tbe work was cut up into sections1 averaging about j two miles of railroad. , Special orders were giveu con cerning the important Western Un f ion line to New York. It was to be broken directly west of Delaware -Kiver image. At Jtr-tu me wors or destruction was started. "Steve" Jones, section foreman, was in charge. Five poles in a bunch fell at 1:37, and the tnrougn jy-wire Bne of the Westera Union went out of business for good. - By tomorrow night the Pennsyl : vania officers expect to have every Western Union pole and wire down every mile of railroad to which to rlav'a nrdnr annlied The tweire an poles will be loaded on constraiond trains and carried away. Then a bill will be rendered the Western Union for tbe cost of removing its poles and wires. , The cost of tearing away this tel egraph system is $50,000, which the l ail road expects to recover later. An expert estimates that the value of fie system i8 from $700,0n0 to $81)0.000 It is doubtful if the juDk r .n be e 1 1 to real ze the cost of clearing it up. Lis A-Yge'e. May 29.

The doc tor insisted on an operation as -the only way to get well. I, however strongly objected to an operation. My husband felt disheartened as well as I, for home with a sick woman is a disconsolate place at best. A friendly druggist advised him to get a bottle of Wine of Cardui or me to try, and he did so. I began to improve in a few days and my recovery was very rapid. Wi th in eighteen weeks I was another being." . :.'.. " v - ; (LMxs.
