Three Fatally Injured In a Michigan Central Disaster. - ' - TOLEDO, Nov. 10.—Michigan Central train No. 310, from Toledo to Detroit, was ditched by the spreading of rails be- tween Alexis and Vienna, Mich, about 8 o’clock last night. The accident was the result of a delib- erate piece of work by unknown train wreckers’ and happened at a point just bevond a short trestle. _ wo freight trains had passed over the 'road in safety a short time before. W'here ,the rails were spread it was found that the bolts that held the fishplates had been unscrewed. ' - The nuts were lying on the ties, and the threads of the bolts were not marred in any way. A couple of big wrenches, such as section hands use, were found lying beside the track, indicating how the rails had been loosened. Three people were fatally injured. They are: John McKay, Indianapolis, rib broken, cut about face and head by glass; \John O’Neil, Detroit, fireman, cut about head and arms, and William Hamilton, engineer, bruised and probably internally injured. A dozen passengers were seriously in- jured, and 15 or 20 others were bruised and shaken up, some of them 'u'cceiving slight wounds. The early, reports “of 'the-wwreck were alarming, and the railroad company sum- moned every available physician from Toledo and elsewhere. A special hospital train was ordered from Detroit, and the injured will be taken there. Some of the less seriously hurt were brought to Tole- do on a Lake Shore train, which arrived shortly before midnight. ' ‘ LUDLOW AT HOME.’ The Military Governor of Havana Talks of Cuban Aflairs. NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—General Wil- liam Ludlow, military governor of Ha- vana, reached his home in Flushing yes- terday after being detained in quarantine until the danger of any outbreak of ye]- low fever had passed. He said he was glad to get back for a short rest and would probably remain at home as long as possible. tired after the hard work of the last few months. General Ludlow talked at length upon the condition of affairs in Cuba. He con— sidered the greatest drawback to the im- provement of the people their great illit- eracy. Among other things he said: “The condition of the people is some- thing awful in that respect. Eighty per cent of the people are illiterate. The Spanish for 300 years had an elaborate system of schools and academics. The theory of these was splendid, and had they done the work they were supposed to do things would have been different from what we found, but unfortunately Spanish theory and Spanish performance were radically difierent.” CON DENSED DISPATCHES.

McLean and a rebuke to the in- famous policy of the administration, I feel it has not been in vain.” Mayor Jones then says of imperialism: “I be- licve the nonpartisan vote of Ohio may he recorded as favoring a Christian poli- cy toward the Philippines. Personally I believe the Filipinos have a right 'to be free as well as the Americans, and I have frankly said so whenever the question was raised, but I have no thought what- ever of trying to represent any other man as believing as I do. I want all men to be free to speak for themselves.” Equal Wage Union. KANSAS CITY, Nov. 10.—The supreme council of the American Equal Wage union, recently incorporated under the laws of Missouri, with headquarters in Kansas City, has issued an address to the wage workers of the United States.
