THE MANOR WREOK. A Defective Truck or a. Broken Frog Ro- sponslble For the Accident. PITTSBURG, Oct. 11.‘-—George Van Zandt and-H. Kunklo, who sustained serious in- juries in the wreck of the mail express on the Pennsylvania at Manor station last evening, are resting easy at the West Penn hospital and may recover. Mr. Van Zandt is a commercial traveler and resides in New York. He is badly cut and bruis- ed about the head , and should rs, and the physicians at the West Penn hospital say his skull is fractured. Kunkle lives at Johnstown, but is employed as a black- smith in the railroad shops hero. The body of John Miller, the conductor, who was killed, was taken to Derrick, where his family resides. He was 40 years of age and had been employed on the road for many years. So far as could be learned, the other injured victims are in afair way to recov- cry. The cause of the accident has not been definitely determined yet. A defective truck on the first car, which left the track, or a broken frog, is the cause prominently - assigned. The wreck has been cleared away, and trains are running as ‘usual. Superin- tendent Robert Pitcairn and Assistant Superintendent Trump were in charge of the relief train, and they superintended the clearing up of the wreck and the ban- dling of the injured persons. They made a partial investigation into the cause of the accident, but Were unable to find any defects in the track. The investigation will be continued until the cause is learned. . DEATH BEFORE DISGRAOE. A Result of the Railroad Transfer Bob- berlos In Kansas City. KANSAS CITY, Oct. 11.—-The dead body of H. C. Litchfield, who was manager and part owner of the Railroad Transfer com- pany. and who was worth $100,000, was found in his office. He had shot himself with a. revolver and left a note stating that he could not stand the disgrace that attached to his company. Thomas Noland, the company’s foreman, and others were recently arrested for systematically rob- bing the local railroads of freight in trans- it. In a confession Noland implicated Litchfield, and some of the stolen goods Were found in thchfield's house. Litch- field had been in business here for more than 20 years and bore a good reputation.

THREE COMMANDERS. MEN WHO WOULD LEAD EUROPEAN ARMIES IN CASE OF WAR. An Englishman Who Thinks It Would Be Profitable to Make a' Technical Compar- ison Between Viscount Wolseley and a Russian and French General. I ‘ sometimes his progress is stopped by a I do not know the new commander in chief of the English land forces. I saw him once or twice in my life, but this is many years ago, and in military matters of the magnitude involved in the supreme command of .a great army I am afraid I should prove an incompe-" tent critic. But I believe to a great ex- tent in physiognomy, and if Viscount Wolseley be not a very clever man he ought to bring an action for libel against his face, for he looks decidedly clever. If there were any doubt in my mind about his ability, it would be set at rest by the not very enthusiastic remarks in connection with his appointment I read in one or two French newspapers. “You are an irritable people, envious, jealous and proud to a degree,” said Bismarck to General de Wimpfien on Sept. 1, 1870. “You are an irritable people, en- vious, jealous and proud to a degree,” be repeated. “You were under the im- pression that victory is an appendage which was exclusively reserved to you. ” Has the quarter of a century gone by since those words were uttered made a difference in that respect in the French people? I Should not like to say. It may not be altogether uninterest- ing to look at the two men against whom the English commander in chief will be pitted if a quarrel should ever unhappily break forth in Europe. I am alluding to the commanders in chief of the Russian and the French forces. The Russian army contains several men of unquestionable capacity; never- theless, there appears to be a conscnSus of opinion that, in the event of war, with no matter whom, the supreme command would virtually devolve upon General Obroutchefi', to the exclusion even of General Kouropatkine. I say virtual command, for, nominally, young Nicholas would be at the head of his legions. Having declared myself at the outset incapable of judging the English com- mander in chief from a military point of view, I am not going to stultify my- self by endeavoring to do this in the case of Obroutcheif. I only repeat what I have heard. Until very recently the chief of Vannowski’s staff and Aid-de- camp General Obroutcheif was, in spite of his recognized talents, looked askance at in Russian military circles. The epithet “red” was invariably tacked to his name as late as 15 years ago, and the third section of the imperial chan- celleric, without troubling to inquire into the matter, placed him on the list of ”dangerous” men “to be watched very closely. ” .A note like that from the Russian police becomes practically indelible, and, aid-de—camp general though he was, not the slightest attempt was made to efface his name from the list. After his exploits on the Danube Loris Melikoff drew the attention of Alexander II to this apparently flagrant injustice, to this permanent insult. The name was maintained on the list for ‘all that, but the epithet was changed from “red” into “well meaning.” . Obroutcheff has married a French- woman, and is a declared partisan—or . I supposed to be—of' an alliance with France. His views in that respect date from 1870, when he was an Obscure general. I repeat, about his abilities there is little or no doubt. After the first checks in the Turko~Russian cam- paign he was sent in hot haste to the Danube. and he is credited with’havin'g saved the Russian army from total de— struction. Before that, though, he had already become the intimate friend of the heir to the throne, and the friend- ship underwent no diminution during Alexander III’S reign. Wherever the scene of the next Eu- ropean campaign of the French may be laid, General Felix Gustave Saussier, the present military governor of Paris, is beforehand designated as the leader. . Saussier is close upon 70. In spite of his large size he is very active, but for that size he would give one the idea of a mousquetaire of the Louis XIV period dressed in modern uniform. There is no doubt about his value as a soldier, which does not always mean an equal value as a supreme commanderfi‘but it is fair to state that in the battles around Metz, a quarter of a century ago, he distinguished himself most signally. The famous infantry charge at St. Pri- vat, which practically barred the prog- ress of the Germans on that side, was led by him. Saussierwas one of the oficers who signed the protest against the surrender ' of Meta. Having refused to pledge him- self not to serve again during the cam- paign, he was sent as prisonerof war to Cologne. Nor would he give his prom- ise not to escape, consequently he was transported to a, small town on the Vis- tula (Grandenz, I believe), and abso- lutely sequestrated—wtthout eflect, for he made his escape after all. He allowed Gambetta to remain ig- norant of all this, as well as of his re- publican origin, and the “great trib- une, ” whose infallible instinct has been vaunted so much, only looked upon _ Saussier as a colonel of the.empire and ' treated him as such. After that Saus- sier went once more to Algeria. Saus- sier, I should say, has had more fight- ing than any genera? in the Ranch ar- my, but it Would be rash to say that this made him a strategist. A bril— liant soldier he was and is still, in spite of his age, and as he was barely 40 when France suffered her reverses he may have'profited by them. To many in France herself he is an unknown quantity. These are the two men‘ a com- parison with whom and Viscount Wolse- ley it would be profitable to establish, but I mean a technical comparison.— London Illustrated News.

Under Dimcultien- The traffic in Tangier is large and continuous. There is no footpath proper, and the foot passenger has often to pick his way among heavily laden donkeys and camels. Sometimes he'is jostled by Jews in dark blue jelabs andskullcaps, the distinctive badges of their race; burly negro slave, all in white or faded yellow, bearing on his head a tray of bread from the public bakehouse; some- times he is swept into a miry corner by half a dozen of the sultan’s cavalry, whose richly caparisoned steeds, flow- ing robes. flintlccks or spears, make up altogether an imposing spectacle. Per- haps also he may find himself confront- ed by a huge packing case home down the street on the back of a donkey and supported on each side by men of color, who alarm the neighborhood with shouts of “balak. ” The most- interesting sight in Tangier —at least, from an artistic point of view —is the SOk, or large market place for country products. It lies immediately outside the wall in the upper part of the town and is approached through the old slave market, now converted into a. shoeing forge. In the forenoon it- is too crowded to be interesting, but in the afternoon, when business has some- what slackened, scenes of varied inter- est may be observed. Yonder is a water carrier, with large goatskin bag slung over his shoulder, kle of a bell to the refreshing draft he offers. Here is a gaunt Arab from the Riff mountains, bareheadod, blank- et draped and flashing eyed, interview- ing with fierce and threatening gestures . an obdurate looking Jew, who is evi-I dently demanding his pound of flesh. Near them is a country woman seated behind a small semicircle of milk jars. Her shriveled, wornout features can be discerned through ‘the folds of her coarse haik, which she holds carelessly together with her left hand, while with her right she lifts the lid from one of the jars—Good Words. ' ANIMAL CURIOSITIES. Tree Climbing Rabbits, Sheep Eating Par- rots and Sheep That Love Snails. It seems almost a stretch of the im- agination to think of rabbits climbing trees. Yet in Australia many rabbits have somehow acquired the tree climb- ing habit, having been forced, on ac- count of the persecutions of dogs and other animals, to drop burrowing and imitate squirrels. An Australian sent on to England recently the two front feet of a. rabbit that had been killed on an acacia, three yards from the ground, and he wrote in his letter that this was not at all a remarkable thing, andhe had often f: and them, or'at least the traces of their claws, on the, bark of trees four, five and six yards high. For a par: st to eat sheep is another, remarkable thing, and yet the hen of New Zealand'has become a sheep eater. having changed to this article of food from a purely vegetable diet. The kea has proved a serious source of annoy- ance to the New Zealand herdsmcn, and methods have been taken for the destruc- tion of the Species. ' These gay colored little birds will out almost any kind of meat, but it is sheep that they prefer. They have been known to kill- as many as 200 in a single night and have done serious harm‘to the flocks. The tradition of the island is that at one time these parrots were unable to ob- tain their usual supply of vegetable food and that in desperation they invad- ed the “drying rooms” and ate whatev- er came to hand, finding sheep meat agreeable. In Iceland almost all the horses are fish eaters, for the reason that the grain is scarce there and fish is plentiful. In England sheep are known who delight in snails. The observation of this fact is not new; it dates back 150 years. It is well known that a large number of insectivorous birds become grain eat- erswhen‘ever they find that they cannot . procure their ordinary diet of insects.— New York World. What Victoria Could Do. As a matter of fact, our sovereigns have rarely taken any active part .in politics since George III’S time, but they could still do some very astonish- ing things if they chose. The queen could dismiss every Tommy Atkins in our army, from the commander in chief to the youngest drummer boy. She could disband the navy in the same way, and sell all our ships, stores and arse- nals to the firstcustomer that came along. Acting entirely on her own rc- sponsibilit y. ’she could declare war against any foreign country, or make a present to any foreign power of any part of the empire. She could make ev- ery man, woman and child in the coun- try a‘peer of the realm, with the right, in‘he case of ma es who sire of age, to a seat in the house of lords. With a single word she could dismiss any government that happened to be in power, and could, it is believed, pardon and liberate all the criminals in our jails. These are a few of the things the queen "'could do if she liked, but it is not necessary to say that her ni’ajesty never acts in matters of state except on the advice of the government for the “'hat She "Wonld Do. “Johnnie, dear, ” said his mother, who was in. mg to inculcate a lesson in industry, “what. do you suppose mamma would do for you if you should come to her some day and tell her that you loved your studies?” “Lick me for tell- ing a falsehood,” said dear little John- nie, with the frankness of youth.~--—Pitts- burg Bulletin.

Station Immediately After They find Boon Removed-Panic In a Tenement House. NEW YORK, “Oct. 11.—The five story brick building, 334 and 336 East Twenty- third street, was. burned today. At the fire there was a scene of panic and confu- sionwhich put the police at their wits’ end. Men, women and children were hurried from adjoining tenements, and many per- sons had . narrow escapes from being crushed by falling walls. No watchman was in the building at the time the fire broke out, so that no ex~ planation as to how the blaze started is forthcoming. Together with the cost of the machinery the damage is set down by the police at fully $60,000. The first floor of the building was occu- pied by the owner, Michael Leonard, with his marble works. Overhead were the headquarters of a detachment of the Sal- vation Army—seven men, in charge of Captain Hermansen, and all of them Swedes. The third floor was occupied by an adjustable folding chair company, the fourth floor by the N ew York Gas Tubing company and the top floor by the Auto- matic Vending company. All of these firms lost everything. The blaze was first discovered by Patrolman Henry Horan of the East Twenty-second Street station, which is back of the Leonard building. Noticing a. glare. which was reflected in the windows of Second avenue houses, on his post, be rushed around the corner. Dense volumes of smoke and flame poured from the rear windows on the third floor, occupied by the adjustable chair com- pany. Instantly turning in an alarm, he hur- ried around to the station house, and the reserves were out in short order. A few seconds later Battalion Chief Walsh, with half a dozen truck companies, arrived, and second and third alarms were sent out. Salvationists In Prayer. Although the flames were leaping from every window at the time there was not a sign from the Salvationists, all of whom were wrapped in profound slumber. Half a dozen policemen rushed up the stairs, and, smashing -in the door, drove the sol— diers out (in a most unceremonious man- ner. Once in the street the soldiers, un- der orders from their captain, began to sing and pray. Almost in less time than it takes to tell it, the flames had eaten their way clear up to the roof as well as down to the low or floor. It became a difficult matter to get the streams of water working. In or- der to do so the firemen had to use the elevated railroad structure, as well as the roofs of surrounding houses. Three lines of hose were also laid from the roof of the police station in the rear. A In the police station all was confusion, caused by the terror of lodgers and prison- ers.» There were three of the latter and seven men and three women who had asked for shelter. All were confined in a two story exten- sion. They were first half drowned with water. Then when the station house it- self was found to be in danger, Sergeant Snyder, who was at the desk, decided to remove them. They had scarcely been taken under guard to the street when the rear wall of the Leonard building fell with a. crash on the station house prison, crushing it completely. Had the sergeant delayed two minutes later it is certain that 13 lives would have been lost. Two Firemen Injured. Next to the building on Twenty-third street is a five story tenement, the base- ment of which is used as the Galileo mis- sion with a restaurant attached. Over- head lived four families, all of whom were asleep when the fire broke out. All of these were also driven into the street in their night clothes, as well as the in- mates of a men’s lodging house adjoining on the east side. The block was soon crowded with men, women and children, and the wildest. kind of stories were afloat rs to loss of life. Those, hOcher, prover groundless. No one was injured save two firemen, John Leddy, who jumped 18 feet fromarear extension when the wall was falling in, 'spraining his right ankle, but saving his life, and George Halloran of engine 25, who was badly injured by himself and three others losing control of the hose. While the flames lasted the “L” road was blocked to Harlem on the up town side. Trains on the down track, however, were switched at Forty-second street. When the firemen got the flames under control, the building and its contents were a total loss, what was not destroyed by fire being ruined by water. The loss is fully covered by insurance. Part of Missouri Penitentiary Burned. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Oct. 11.—The Missouri penitentiary has been partly burned. Fire was discovered in the Strauss harness shop. The main part of the building was so quickly enveloped that scarcely any stock could be removed and no machinery. The Jefierson Shoe company’s premises were flooded. An esti- mate places the loss at $155, 000. The Wreck at Atlantic City. ATLANTM CITY, Oct. 11.—-'I‘he two masted schooner H. B.

' HOT SPRINGS LIKES IT T00. The Date Remains Unchanged — It Is Thought That Governor Clark Will Not Interfere—Methodist Min- isters Meet and Protest. DALLAS, Oct. 11.—All the members of the Florida Athletic club at this place Here completing their arrangements to- I‘ay to leave town at once and transfer ' their headquarters to Hot Springs, where it is now settled thaa‘unless something unforeseen happens, the big fight between Corbett and Fitzsimmons will take place on Oct. 31. .Word comes from Hot Springs that Mayor Waters and the other officers of that place are heartily in favor of the con- test being held there, as are also all the business men of the place. Although Governor Clark is opposed to the fight, dispatches from Little Rock say he be- lieves he cannot prevent the contest, but must rely upon the Hot Springs authori- ties. ‘ Prize fighting in Arkansas is a misde-' meanor and punishable only by a fine. For this reason it is not thought likely that a special session of the legislature will be called to stop the fight. Sporting M on Jubilant. LITTLE ROCK, Oct. 11.—The sporting fraternity of this place were jubilant over the news that the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight will take place at Hot Springs. It is believed here that Governor Clark will throw no obstacle in the way. He was notified ofiicially that Hot Springs had been 'agreed upon by the principals and their managers and replied by saying that he I - did not know how he could prevent it. He seems to rely entirely upon the local authori- t i e s O f H o t Springs. . “About every other man who comes in to this of- fice, ” said the governor, “h a s v something to say 3.1“" about the fight. I GOVERNOR CLARK, could stop the fight by taking a shotgun. Any citizen could do that. We have a law which says prize fights are misdemeanors, and I believe that if an attempt is made to pull the fight off in Arkansas the peace officers will do their duty and arrest the participants. I cannot go' beyond what the law says. ” It is not likely that Governor Clark will interfere. Hot Springs People Pleased. HOT SPRINGS, Oct. 11.—When the an- nounce'ment came' that the Corbett-Fitz- simmons fight was to take place here, the people went wild with excitement and elation. Dan Stuart and other represent: atives of the Florida Athletic club, to- gether with the Hot Springs committee, Mayor Waters and City Attorney Will H. Martin, are expected to arrive from Dallas tomorrow. The Methodist pastors met here and passed resolutions of protest against the mill taking place here. ' The arena will be constructed in Whittlngton park, on the outskirts of the city. . The Daily News of this city came out strongly against the contest. The Daily Sentinel as strongly favors it. Nineteen- twentieths of the people are gratified and want the fight to take place here. “It would be a shame and outrage on the name of the state should this fight be permitted, ” said Attorney General Kins- worthy. “The contention made by some that as it is a misdemeanor, punishable only by a fine, it cannot be prevented if the fine is paid is not in accordance with the spirit of the law. “It is the duty of all peace officers to prevent any contemplated violation of the law when it comes to their attention. No arrangement can be made to pay the fine and proceed with the fight any more than a man could threaten to kill anoth~ er and after the deed was committed de- liver himself up to be hanged. “I am not in a position to say how far the governor can go. I will say this, however. I would have officers on the train and arrest the men before they could reach Hot Springs or the point where they propose to fight. It is all stuff to say the governor cannot stop the fight, be— cause he has as much right to prevent the commission of a misdemeanor as he has to punish the violators after it is done. No more law is necessary. “Governor Culberson sought to main- tain the honor of his state in the absence of specific law,and when he could not do so caused . a law to be made. Governor Clark already has a law. It would be a disgrace to dump this affair on Arkansas after it has been refused entry into the Indian Territory.” ‘ - Louis Stern’s Family at Home. NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—Amcng the pas- . sengers arriving today on the Spree were G. A. von Lingen, imperial German con- sul at Baltimore; Mr. and Mrs. Seymore Hicks, Albert T. Plummer, Dr. George A.
