    SCENES OF HORROR
Dead Piled Up Amid Darning Cars
in Train Wreck.
TRAINS COLLIDE IN DIG SWAMP
Injured Ones Lie With Dozen Corpses
Along the Track Heroic
Work by Women.
Now Orleans, Nov. 12 Elovcn poi
sons are known to bo dead and a scoro
or moro aro injured as n result of a
wreck yesterday morning on the New
Orleans & Northeastern railroad at Lit
tlo Woods, 12 miles from New Orloans.
Botween Slidell and Now Orloans tho
tracks of tho New Orleans & North
eastern aro usod bv tho Great Northorn
and it was a suburban train of this road
from Covington that crashed into tho
rear of a local Northeastern train from
Hatticsburg, Miss., telescoping tho four
roar coaches.
Littlo Woods is so surrounded by
swamp that tho only access to tho acono
is by way of the railroad. When tho
roscuo party reached Little Woods tho
uccno was one of terror, desolation and
death. Tho wreck had caught fire and
tho first efforts of tho loungers around
tho -enrnns wont toward subduing tho
flames. In this thoy had been partiallyl
successful, but muo succor naa rjeon
given to tho badly injured and several
of theso died while lying around tho
amouldoring debris. Budo bandages had
been bound about their wounds in an
effort to stop tho flow of blood and In
many instances the later investigation
of tho surgeon discovered that moro
than ono life had been saved in this
manner. None worked harder than tho
women passengers in thii crude surgery.
MAY BE ANDRE.
Skipper Finds Remains Under Cross
Bearing Explorer's Name.
Copenhagen, Nov. 12. There is rea
son to beliovo that tho body of Pro
fessor S. S. Andro, tho Arctic exploror,
tvLo, in 1905, mado an attempt to reach
tho north polo in a balloon, has been
found on tho coast of Labrador.
A letter received from the captain of
the Danish steamer Inca, dated Labra
dor. September 30, reports that Captain
Chatker. skipper of the American
schooner Pelops, of Conception Bay, N
P.. discovered in northern Labrador i
cross bearing the name "Andre," and
that benoath this cross Tio found a body
and a box of documents.
Ho dug under the cross and found
human remains and a box containing
papers. Captain Chatker said that ho
romovod tho cross, but he refused to
say whether or not the papers wore in
his possession. Tho Inga's captain
asked how tho name "Andre" was
spelled. On being told, he took a piece
of paper from nis pocket, on which was
-written the name as it appeared on tho
cross. It was "Andreo."
Tho place where the cross was dis
covered is an absolute desert and if
rarelv visited, even by the Eskimos,
What becamo of Andrs's two compau
ions, if tho discovered remains prove to
bo his. is a problem, but tho light prob
ably will bo thrown upon their fate by
an examination of tho papers.

WAR AGAIN POSSIBLE.
All Depends on Note to the Powers
From Austria.
St. Petersburg, Nov. 13. Although
an air of outward calm is maintained
at tho Russian foreign offico, tho
Balkan situation has now reached an
acute- stage, where everything depends
upon tho nature of tho note which is
expected from Vienna today and tho
outcome of the mediation which Rub
sia, .Franco and Urcat Untain havo un
dortaken at Belgrade, at Austro-Hun
gary's request, with a view to limiting
the belligerent activity of Scrvia.
If mediation is not successful, war is
recognized as a possibility in autnori
tativo circles. The Austro liungarjan
Servian relations aro too strained, it is
boheved, to permit present conditions
to continue indefinitely.
Tho Austrian note will definitely out
lino the attitudo of that government re
garding discussion of the annexation of
Bosnia and Herzegovina and possible
compensation to Bervia and Monteno
gro, and tho nature of tho noto will do
tormino whether or not an international
congress can bo held.

WaR ON SHEEP PEST.
Wool Growers Will Urge Legislature
to Incroaso Coyote Bounty.
Pondloton. Hoavy pressuro will bo
brought to boar on tho legislature when
it convenes this winter by tlio snoop
mon of eastern Oregon and the Wilmm
otto valloy to sccuro a bounty of from
$1 to $1.50 per covoto. Tho pest is al
ready raynging flocks in tho westorn
part of tho stato and its depredations
will exceed thoso of any former years
on nccount of its increasing numbers.
It is estimated that tho coyotes dur
ing tho past yoar havo dono over $1,
000,000 dnmngo to tho flocks of tho
stato, and tho sheepmen beliovo that
tho only way to oxtorminato tho pest
Is to provide, a bounty to inako their
killing worth whilo.
In. order to got tho mnttor boforo tho
legislature tho Oregon sheep commis
sion in its nnnunl report will embrace
a recommendation of a bounty of $1.50
to bo paid for each animal killed. It
will 'point to tho success with which
that plan combattod tho ovil Bomo yenrs
ago. Tho shcopmon of tho stato will
also urgo through thoir organization
that such a bounty bo given.
Olio-half of tho sum paid, according
to tho plan now under ndvisoment, will
bo paid by tho sheopmon through n
special tax loviod upon them for that
purpose This is in lino with tho old
law.
Until about six years ago Oregon paid
a bounty of $2 por coyote. Under that
system, according to Socrotnry Dan P.
Smytho of tho Oregon shoop commis
sion, tho coyotes woro practically exter
minated, and just at tho timo tho boun
ty hnd ceased to bo an expense of any
importance tho law was ropealod. As
tho result tho animal's havo incrensed
until thoy aro a plaguo groator than
over boforo in tho stato.
For tho first time in many years tho
valley woolgrowors aro with the men of
eastern Oregon in this matter.
Tho need of tho coyoto bounty law
will bo discussed in this city Saturday
at tho meeting of tho County "Wool
growers' association, and will also come
up noxt week at tho Ileppnor meeting.
It is also probable that at the latter
place the sheepmen will adopt tho plan
of organized fight against tho beasts
during the month of January, as during
tho past year when some 20,000 coyotes
are estimated to have been killed in
the one month.

NORTH DAKOTA LAUNCHED.
First of American Drcadnaught Class
of Battleships.
Ouincv. Mass.. Nov. II. The brittle
ship North Dakota, the first American
war vessel of the Drcadnaught class,
was launched at the yards of the Fore
River Shipbuilding company, at
Quincy Point, at 12:27 P..M. yester
dav in the presence of more than 10,
ono people, including representatives
of two states and of the national gov
ernment at the yards to witness the
launching.
This American Drcadnaught. when
she has received the additional groom
ing due her after she is afloat, will he
bigger and swifter and deadlier by lar
than the British vessel that inspired
her. and wilt be an improvement on
that vessel by so many features o
Yankee ingenuity that there will be
no comparison between the two. In
nothing that Great Britain is building
for herself are the many advantages
of the American ship utilized and her
. , , , . . i t.
virtues arc lorcsiiauowco in uic cran
of the immediate future only in those
vessels that Brazil is having made in
kneland under contract.
The launching of this ship is held
bv authorities to mark an era in the
advancement of the navy No such
single stride has been made in naval
construction since the days when ar
mor plate was first used on the Mnui
tnr and the Mcrriinnc, for the policy
embodied in the htiildinir of the North
Dakota is as far from that of the other
vessels recently built as her size is
greater than theirs.
