Passengers on the Lake Shore Twentieth Century Lim ited thought they w-crc taking break fat in a wreck a the tender trucks of the giant locomotive hauling the fast tram left the tracks a half mile west of Gary at 8 A. M yesterday. For a mile the wheels of the tender bumped over the ties, whiie the en gineer sought to halt the flyer, speed ing to Chicago at the rate of CO miles an hour, i lie dining car and the smoker also left the raits. For what seemed to the passengers three or four minutes the train dashed ahead, but with slackening speed. Af ter about a mile it was brought to a stop and it was found that no one was injured. At the point where the ac cident occurred the tracks of the Lake Shore are elevated so that an embank ment of eight or ten feet descending on either side promised a dangerous plunge if the bouncing cars left the raits. The airbrake on the diner, loosened from its fastenings, fell to the ground This derailed the diner, the smoker and Hie tender. An angle-bar of the track was uprooted and tore through the floor of the diner, causing a panic among the passengers at breakfast. WRIGHTS LATEST WONDER. Beats World's Record With Passenger on Board.

GERMANY TO BACK AUSTRIA. Favors Annexation Scheme Advise Turkey Against War. Berlin, Oct. 0. The foreign office to day declared that Germany would sup port Austria-Hungary in the event of the annexation of Bosnia and Herze govina. Tho Associated Press is authorized to state that Germany associates her self with the mediation proposals sub mitted by Great Britain to the Turkish and Bulgarian governments.
