HORROR AT. GARRISON
Slow Progress in the Search
for Dead Bodies.
DEBRIS OF CARS ON ALL SIDES
No More Corpses Have Been Removed
Today Cause of the Wreck
Not Determined.
Garrison, N. Y Oct. 25. The gray
dawn, 24 hours after the frightful hap
pening of yesterday, broke upon a ecene
of greater litter and property destruc
tion than yesterday's sun, and last
night's torchlight displayed weary gangs
of wreckers, wbo were relieved this
morning by fresh ones.
When -the wreckers brought the tackle
on the sleeping car Glen Alpine to drag
. her up, there was much excitement and
speculation, as it was believed there
must surely be some bodies in this car,
the most deeply submerged of the lot.
When the car had been placed on a
scow and the water run out of it, a
seaching party went through, and to
the surprise of the railroad officials, not
a body was discovered. r Some curious
things were found, however, which tends
to make the escape ot the passengers
in this car almost miraculouB. It is be
lieved that all in this car escaped, and
as there were a full score of handbags
and satchels in the car, there may have
been that number of passengers.
Colonel Cole, president of the state
railway commission, who is making an
investigation of the wreck, said that
while the bank may have given away,
it was possible that the driving rod of
the engine had broken and caused the
disaster.
If there are many more bodies in the
wreck they are believed to be in the day
coach, "which lies in the water up to its
roof. Passengers who escaped from this
car, and the crew, say that at least 12
persons perished in the day coach.
Roadmaster Otis, one of the most ex
pert track builders in the country, told
an Associated Press representative that
the sinking of the roadbed was due to
some almost unaccountable action of
the water on the bank. The sand and
gravel had been waehed away, leaving a
crust under the track which collapsed
with the weight of the train.
Revised list of the dead is as follows:
Thos. Reilly, St. Louis.
W. H. G. Myers, Passaic, N. J.
E. A. Green", Chicago.
G. Paduano, New York.
Samuel Williams, Buffalo.
A. G. Mackay, private secretary of
General Superintendent Van Allen.
John Boyle, East Albany.
John O. Tampkins, fireman,' East Al
bany. Two unidentified women.
Wong Jim, Hop Sing and six other
Chinamen, unidentified.
The injured number 13, but none are
expected to die.
.The engine was located by a diver this
afternoon, but no bodies were dis
covered. The engine is about thirty feet from
the shore, and under about sixty feet of
water.

AP PROVISO AT WASHINGTON.
MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.
Spain's New Cuban Policy Is Regarded
with favor. .
Washington, Oct. 25. Developements
in Cuba within the next thirty days will
definitely determine President McKin
ley's attitude on the Spanish question,
but he expects no trouble. The admin
istration looks with favor on Spain's
change of policy, and believes that the
ministry is sincere in its endeavor to
bring about a speedy termination of the
strife in Cuba by granting substantial
reforms.
While not fully advised as to Spain's
reply to Secretary Sherman's note, pre
sented by Minister Woodford in Sep
tember, its general character is known
here, and it is not anticipated by tbe
president that any friction will arise
between tbe two countries as a result of
the exchange of notes.
The prime object the president had in
view when General Woodford went to
Madrid was bringing about an improved
condition of affairs in Cuba before con
gress reassembled. Spain's policy and
her instructions to the new captain-general
of Cuba will show an advanced step
in that direction.
But the administration is more con
cerned about the rapid change of policy
than it is about the character of Spain's
reply to Minister Woodford's represen
tations. The government has no reason
to fear that Spain will take an aggress
ive 6tand against, the United States.
On the contrary, it is sure of a note
friendly and conciliatory in tone. The
president realizes, however, the danger
of further a gitation . by congress and a
further disturbance of our interests if
something more substantial than theie
mere promises of Spain to grant gen
uine autonomy cannot be furnished
when the new session begins.
It can hardly be expected that Gen
eral Blanco within a month after his
arrival will be able to end the war, but
if it can be shown that an advance step
has been taken in that direction, Pres
ident McKinley may, by forwarding the
conversation that has passed and calling
attention to an improved condition in
Cuba, be able to pacify congress long
enough to allow Spain to become thor
oughly established in her new reforms.
Henca it appears that tbe wording
of the president's forthcoming message
depends mainly npon, the immediate
effects of General Blanco's arrival in
Havana, the promulgation of an amnes
ty proclamation, of new autonomist re
forms and the abandonment of the re
concentrado policy. t. v

Trimmed skirts increase in favor as
the season advances. .
Mousseline brilliante is a new gauzy
textile much, used by Eaudnitz, Beers
and Paquin for draping evening toilets.
it has a very silky surface, and. is re
markably dainty and beautiful.
most oi tne new tucked evening
gowns of gauzy material have rows of
handsome Venetian lace insertion on
bodice and skirt. Other toilets are made
with Gainsborough fichus of tulle or
mousseline de soie crossed over the cor
sage, passed under the arms, and tied at
the back.
Accordion-plaited skirts of black silk
grenadine, canvas tulle, black Swiss
muslin dotted in silk, fancy French and
Russian nets, and similar diaphanous
textiles.are made up over gored founda

yellow satin. Portions of the bodice
and sleeves are likewise plaited and
finished with elegant decorations in cut
jet.
Gros de Tours is one of the pouular
silks this summer and has a soft fin
ished corded surface, slightly heavier
in quality than taffeta, but less jjlossy,
It is used in the pale tints fcr evening
toilets, and in browns, grays and
greens for church, visiting, etc. Some
of the grounds are striped with satin
in bronze or black, then figured with
small leaves or flowers or quaint old
fashioned figures. These'patterns make
charming fancy waists. -
