Chicago, Sept. 2L Four persons
were killed, two are dying and fivo
are seriously wounded, as the result
of somebody's carelessness at Doug
lass Park btatiou. This evening
shortly after 7 o'clock a train of ihe
Illinois Central railway stopped at
Keuzio avenue. It was the last of
four sections which wero taking home
a crowd of excursion ihts, who had
gone out to Addison to enjoy them
selves. At Cljde the train was
switched onto tho Burlington
track and at Douglass Park
station it came to a stop. As
it backed towards the west the
Downer Grove express, of the Bur
lington road, came thundering aloug,
and before the breaks could bo set, or
an alarm given, the pilot of the Bur
lington engine wont crashing into tho
rear of tho picnic train. The second
car was a light suburban one.
The ono behind aud tho one
ahead 01 it were regular passen
ger coaches, aud a great deal hoavier.
Wh en the Burlington train struck the
rear coach of the other train it rose
from the tracks and plowed over the
tender box iu its way for ten feet. It
was completely telescoped as though
it was an ens shell, and hum 111 beings
in its way wero ground to de.it h or
cruelly injured.
Four persons were instantly kilk-.l,
and seven othors were injured, two or
whom will die. Many others wore
slightly hurl, and all abo ird the pic

severely shaken up.

Had the Burlington train been run

No sooner had tho accident hap

who have been gradually driven into

Special by The Uxithd Pkess. v
Sax Fbaxosco, Sept. 21. 1 has
been reported that a bitter feeling ex
ists between tho Southern Pacific and
the Union Paoific companies. This
report appears to have no foundation
whatever. The comparatively recent
expressions of Charles Francis Adams,
-t l ,, -n - y-i i !
President of the Umon Pacific, and of
tbo officials ot tho Southern Pacific
company, as well as the harmony that
nas always existed, show on the con-
trary the existence of cordial rela
tions. Many small differences havo nat
urally arisen, and some -have existed
for a good while, but the relations
now are understood to bo wholly satisfactory-
One of these differences
wa3 in tho division of rates on through
business, and especially on business to.
JUenver and Montana, on which tho
Union Pacific demanded and secured
a proposition of the whole rate, practi
cally amounting to their own local
rate.
It was learned yesterday that not
long ago the Union Pacific made con
cessions in these cases, and anew di
vision was agreed upon, in which tho
Union Pacific received as its share bnt
little more than .1 pro rata based, on
mileage.
A dispatch from Chicago states that
tho details of a gigantic railroad
combination woro just coming
to light. Tho deal was said
to consist in tho establishment
of close relations among the Southern

THE LAtfGSTON ELECTION CASE.
Bepublicans Determined to. Push It

Special by The Uniteo Pjress.
'"Washington, Sept. 21. The Senate
this week will-continue to work on
the unfinished program outlined by
the Kepnblican caucus, and finish the
consideration of Senator Evarts' bill
for the relief of the Supreme Court,
which could come up as unfinished
business to-morrow. This and Sena
tor Edmunds' private land claims
court bill, which, was laid aside tem
porarily last week, will probably en
gage the attention of the Senate most
of the week, and the bill to transfer
the revenue marine from the treasury
to the navy department and several
labor bills next on tho program will
be more than enough to keep tho
Senate busy during the entire week.
The conference reports ou the gen
eral deficiency bill nnd the tariff bill,
which are likely to come in by tho
middle of tho week, may displace tho
labor bills untill next week. The
work of the Senate during the week,
as tho time for adjournment about
October 1st, approaches, bids fair to
become interesting if not exciting.
Republicans in the House have de
termined that tho Langston-Venable
contested election case shall be put
through this week, and that Langston
will bo seated boforo any other
business comes before the House.
They expected to accomplish
it this week, but the balance of the
quorum of the Bepnblican members
prevented tho action. As it is now
almost certain that a snfficient num
ber of tho Republican members pro
vented the action, it is now al&o cer
tain that a sufficient number of Re
publican absentees will be present to

and Mahone claimed that he repelled

pers are having their effect there, and
nearly a solid Republican vote will be
cast to seat Langston, although his
case is one of the weakest that has
been reported from the committee.

to-morrow there will not only be a

Drowned in the Attempt.
Special to The Astorian.1
Portland, Sept 21. Geo. Easall,
a laborer in the employ of W. G.
Alexander, while attempting to swim
the "Willamette river this evening, was
seized with cramps and was drowned.
He was aged 38 years and single. He
was a native of New York, and has
relatives living in "Wisconsin. His
body was not recovered.
A Silo In Thirty Seconds.
A mile in thirty seconds was the
rate at which a party of newspaper
men were whirled along the Boston
bicycle railway from Gravesend to
Cony Island. A single bicycle pas
senger car was used. The car itself
was a double decker, in each deck
being six doubled and one single com
partment, each compartment being
by itself and entered from the side
of the car. Each is less in width
than half of tho standard gauge track,
so that two cars can pass each other
when they run on opposite rails. The
wheels of the car are directly under
tho center, a double ilango grasping
the rail. The car is prevented from
toppling over by double wheels at
tached to the top of the car and
running one on each side of a con
tinuous beam held up by frame-work
on either side ot the track. The
engiuo is a bicycle one also. The car
is run on the principle of a hoop in
motion which the faster it goes the
less likely it is to wobble or fall over.
Some engineering papers have al
ready declared it is destined to
revolutionize the present system of
passenger transportation. Boynten
says he can carry 1000 passengers at
tho rate of twenty miles an hour
continuously, or 600 passengers nt the
rate of 100 miles an hour.
Distinction is what we crave. The
degree is unimportant. If we can't
break the bank or run off with a
friend's wife, we can eat quails on a
wager or talk like Sam Jones.

He Purnished the Conspirators With

After the Wreck.
Special by The United Pbess.
New Yobk, Sept. 21. The Sun has
a special from Troy saying that full
confessions of the men implicated in
the recent train wrecking outrage on
the New York Central, have been ob
tained for publication, and that they
contain many damaging statements.
One of the most interesting features
is the implicating of a leader of the
Anights of Labor in the strike, Mas
ter "Workman Edward J. Lee. The
conspirators personally furnished
them with money to leave the country
after they wrecked the express. They
describe his conferences with the men
who were leaders in the plot. The
dispatch also assers that information
regarding the identity of the conspira
tors came to the railroad people from
the upper councils of the Knights,
and that since the strike began the
railroad company has had in its pay
men high in the order, who have con
stantly furnished information.

The supreme importance of -purifying

An early religious education is not
to be despised. I know a Christian
