Aid Leas. Fortunate People.
MADRID, June -28. Fourteen bodies and
BO Injured persons have been extricated
irom the wreck, of the Bilbao train -which
overturned at the CCejerilla River last
night.
According to official Information, 30 per
sons were killed and CO others seriously
Injured. Many of the latter will die. Of
the 300 passengers on the train, it Is stat
ed that only six escaped unhurt.
The train, which was composed of two
engines and 16 coaches, was crossing the
bridge, when the couplings between the
engines broke. The second engine left the
track and fell, followed by the entire
train. Into the bed of the river.. Fortun
ately, the water was low.
The nearest medical attendance was a
mile and a half distant, and those pas
sengers who were least Injured aided the
others and did all possible until the ar
rival of relief trains bringing nurses,
doctors and soldiers from Bilbao.
The train fell 50 feet from the bridge to
the river bed, the coaches piling up In a
mass of splintered wood and Iron-work.
Tho"scene is described as horrifying. Many
corpses were carried down the stream,
which was actually reddened with blood.
It was found impossible to extricate
numbers of the Injured who were pinioned
under the wreckage. A railway guard was
arrested In the act of robbing the dead
And narrowly escaped lynching.
It is believed that the official figures un
derestimate the number of killed, some
accounts giving the number of dead as 100.
The full extent of the catastrophe will be
known only when the wreckage has been
cleared away.
The latest dispatches from Earagossa,
near which place the catastrophe oc
curred, give the number of dead as 90
and the Injured as 100. The rescue of the
Injured from the debris is not yet com
pleted. CHINESE TREATY OX THE WAY.
England Expect Xo Trouble Front
Iiooaely Stated Clauses.
LONDON, June 29. The Times corre
spondent at Pekin says it is announced
that the ratification of- the commercial
treaty between China and Great Britain,
which was signed by Sir James Slackay
and the Chinese Commissioners at Shang
hai last September, is on its way,' to Pe
kin, and ratifications will be otehanged
after its arrival, although Chinahas not
vouchsafed a reply to the queries of the
British government regarding? her inten
tions as to the carrying Into effect of
some of the more loosely warded clauses
of the treaty. ,
Article eight of tte treaty provides for
the abolition of tUe likin Carriers, while
the native custonwiouses are retained.
The functions of the llkii barriers and
the custom-houfes are ' largely inter
changeable. Thfc treaty also provides
that Great Britain must be furnished with
a list of custom-houses, concerning the
number of whicjh there is great diversity
or opinion. I he treaty commissioners es
timated their l.umbor at from 18 to 25
only, while experts in the inland trade
sa" the customs stations number at pres
ent 1000.
If article eight becomes operative the
British officials in- China will require to
redouble their vigilance, but it will prob-.
ably not operate because Great Britain
will obtain the advantage in the American
treaty under the most favored nations
clause.

Is understood, advocate resolute action by
the Japanese government.

candidates for an indorsement of the
Pierce County Republican Convention, he
might have secured that support. As it
was Taylor did not have much of a fol
lowing. Taylor has some strength in the
"valley" district of this county, and is
a well-known Republican. But he would
not attempt again to make the race for
Congress.
These facts indicate that Cushman is
not endeavoring to find a real candidate
to succeed himself, but Is somewhat
anxious that men should be boomed who
would step aside in his favor, provided
the people did not shove them out of the
way. Cushman is apparently working
for a straw opposition to his renomlna

to him developing.

'The bushes behind which the murder

uiscusslon of the events of the last
week Is rapidly ending, although th
affair was the text of some clergymen
today. The preachers without exception
condemned the lynching, notwithstanding
tne ract that public sentiment Is over
whelmingly on the side of the lynchers.

case tne negro escaped speedy punish

nis congregation today when the follow
ing resolutions were read during the
services:
"We, the officers and members of the
Olivet Presbyterian Church, Wilmington.
Del., realizing the unjust criticism being
made of our beloved pastor. Rev. Robert
tawood, by a large proportion of the nub
11c press, do place ourselves on record in
tne following resolutions:
.t-irst We express our firm belief in
our pastor's honesty. intesrritv . And
Christian character: our anoreciatlon of
his ministerial labors In our com eea-

'Second We record our belief that his
massage of last Sunday evening was both

and In no wise can the actions of the
citizens on Monday night be chargeable to

"Third We order a copy of these reso

Wilmington remains quiet. The nollee

any further trouble will be started br
eitner wnues or tne blacks.
Rev. Montrose W. Thornton, colored.
pastor of the First African Methodist
t-hurch of this city, preached a sensa
tlonal sermon to his congregation toniKht.
He said in part:
"The white man in the face of his
boasted civilization stands before my eyes
tonight the demon of the world's races, a
monster Incarnate, and In so far as the
negro race Is concerned seems to give no
quarter. The white is a heathen, a fiend.
a monstrosity before God, and is equal to
any act in the category of crime, I would
sooner trust myself In a den of hyenas'
than in his arms. With a court, law and

negro can expect no mercy. Justice or pro

this country. He Is the open prey at all

"There is but one part left for the per

outrage to save yourself from torture at
the hands of the blood-seeking nubile.

LET MEN CEASE BRUTAL CRIMES.
Then There Will Be No Canse for
Lynching, Says Rev. Dr. Bartlett.
CHICAGO, June 23. "I am no advocate
of lynching or of mob law, but I had
rather see a community wrought to the
highest pitch over crimes that would
seem Impossible this side of hell than to
remain apathetic," was the declaration
of Rev. Dr. Bartlett at the First Congre
gational Church today in a prelude on
"Lynching From Another Point of View.
Dr. Bartlett said:
"I have seen so many sermons, edi
torials and resolutions denouncing lynch
ing and mob law that one gets -the im
prcssion that the citizens who hang or
bum the destroyers of life, home and all
that Is held sacred by womanhood, are
tne offenders rather than the monster
whom they destroy.
"We seem to be so absorbed with the
majesty of this vague term law that
the notion appears to prevail that the
real criminals are those who do not wait
for legal processes, and the violator of
womanhood is the abused party.
"We shudder at the torture of the
criminal who is burned, but apparently
forget to shudder for the Innocent girl
whose mental and spiritual agony is ten
fold greater than that of the fire. This
is not a race problem, except so far as
one race are the offenders. The white
man who commits the same crime Is Just
as guilty.
"The Indignant uprising of a communi
ty, and some of the best meri in It. to
avenge a wrong of such awful magnitude
may be technically lawless, but the spirit
which causes the uprising Is the reflec
tion of a higher civilization. There are
crimes so dreadful that the pure and the
chivalrous and the strong find It well-
nigh Impossible to endure the thought
tnat sucn a degenerate should pollute the
earth by his presence. It Is easy to the
orize about the anarchy of mob law. but
the same hand which penned the calm edi
torial might be the first to grasp the
torch If It was a mother, wife or daugh
ter who was the Victim.
"I say that when you look at a lynch
ing from another viewpoint It Is simply
tne Dursung xortn or an indignation and
loathing that will not "be checked. In the
Old Testament days they made short work
of such an offender.
"Lynching is certainly a bad method
and forms a habit of disorder and makes
men bloodthirsty. But If it is to be avoid
ed there certainly is called for a more
sure and speedy trial of these wretches
who often brazenly deny crime amid red
tape of legal processes, but confess ab
jectly when confronted with determined
men. It is useless to bring to trial good

M'CANX BODY EXHUMED.
Positively Identified by His Wife
Harrington Charged "With Harder.
ST. LOUIS. June-38. A warraat-'was
sworn out today by Mrs.. James P. Mc
Cann, charging F. Seymour Barrlngton
with the murder of her husband, James
P. McCann. As the alleged crime was
committed In St. Louis County, the city
authorities today gave Barrlngton over
into tne custody of Sheriff Hankon, and
the prisoner was taken to Clayton and
placed In jail.
The body of the man supposed to be
McCann, which was buried soon after be
ing discovered several days ago at Bon
flls, was exhumed today and an Inquest
held by Coroner Koch, of St. Louis Coun
ty. Th body was in a terrible state of
decomposition, and the features were
gone, owing to the ravages of vermin.
Notwithstanding. Mrs. McCann positively
identified the body as that of her husband,
partially basing tho identification upon a
gold tooth. Others who knew McCann
intimately also identified the body.
Coroner Koch made a rigid investiga
tion ana returned a verdict that two bul
let holes 'were found in the dead man's
head, and the bullets were extracted, cor
responding in character with the caliber
of the revolver in Barrington's trunk at
the Union Station here last night. He
also found a deep gash in the throat and
a cut In the palm of the right hand, lead
ing to the assumption that the man had
been attacked first with a knife and In
defending himself had seized the blade,
which cut deeply in his hand; that finally
his throat had been cut. and that ha wm
ultimately shot twice in the head.
Barrlngton maintains his innocence.

Mrs. Eddy's letter was as follows
"My beloved brethren: I have a secret
to tell thee and a question to ask. Do
you know how much I love you, and the
nature of this love? No? Then, my sa
cred secret Is incommunicable, and we
live apart. But, yes and this inmost
something becomes articulate and my
dook is not all you know of me, but
your knowledge with Its magnitude of
meaning uncovers my life and your
heart has discovered It. The spirit be-
speaKs our temporal history. Difficulty.

world, the flesh and evil, tell my long

"The unprecedented progress of Chris

not be too grateful nor too humble for
this. Inasmuch as our dally lives serve

Mr. Armstrong tonight made It nlaln
that Messrs. Thompson and Eaton will

If their positions were misrepresented
with their consent and approval they will
be liable to removal from office.
Treasury officials express decided ob
jection to persons employed in the cus
toms service engaging at the same timo
in some other business, and intend to
break up this practice as far as possible,
holding that It is detrimental to tho best
interests of the service. There are many
occasions, officials point out, where the
Government needs the service of an em
ploye in the customs department outside
M"u' J" tiuaioras ueparunent outside
0' "gular office hours, and if they happen
to be engaged in business which Inter
feres with this, then the Government Is
the sufferer. For this and other rea

employes not engaging- in other busi
ness. So Additional Midshipmen.
