THE AMERICAN RAILWAY DISASTER

HARRISBURG, May 11.-Twenty persons are known to be dead and more than 100 were injured in a railroad wreck and dynamite explosion which occurred early to-day on the Pennsylvania Railtosi, in, the southern part of this city. That no inore persons were killed is considered remarkable by the Pennsylvania officials as a full-box car of dynamite exploded directly at the middle of the heavy express train.

The train carried a number of prominent persons, and most of them escaped with only slight injuries. The wrecked train was the section of the Cleveland and Cin cinnati Express, leaving Philadelphia last night. It consisted of a combination, baggage, and smoking car, one day condi, and six sleepers.

There are various stories of how the wreck occurred, but the official version is as follows:-About 1.40 o'clock the engine? on an oast-bound freight train was

,,-,,

by the crew of a shifting engine

the same track. The engineer quickly put 1376 on his air brakes, and the train, an ux- usually long one, came to a sudden stop. The strain on the air valves was sovore, and a connecting air hose in the middle of the train blew out. This caused the middle of the train to buckle,' and the damaged

Just as this happoned the Cloveland Express came thundering up and side swiped the wreck. The express was stop-

TRAGIC DEATH OF A WELL THE OWL, GRILL & OYSTER

KNOWN ACTOR.

The dinner at the Savage Club on Satur. day night to the Association of Foreign Journalists, was marked by a tragic event in the sudden death of Mr Charles Arnold, the well-known actor and vocalist, Mr Arnold was ons amongst the band of on- tertainers who had volunteered to afford amusement for the guests of the evening, He was called upon by the chairman to sing, and having rendered *Down where

tho Pilsener flows' received a very cordial encore. In responsa Mr Arnold took his place in front of the piano, and explained to the audience that he would give chom an international song, 'We take off out bats to the King. In cach verse the singor imitates the mannerism of the country who is supposed to be singing, ending up with a lift of the hat: at the worls, We take off our hate to the King." He began with a German verso, and follow- od this with a Scotch worse and a French verse, Then he commenced to sing the American verse, and as he was abouj-to- break into the chores, and paised his hand

to lift Lis hat, he staggered slightly, The

The first union to stop work was' the garment workers, who sought for shorter hours and the abolition of the so-called ewenting shops. These works number at least four thousand and include hundrede of women and children. The teamsters union voted to strike for an eight-hour day, and the States Föderation decided to lend financial assistance. Since then, four more trades are at a stand still owing to a decision of the City Labour Council to begin at once a number of sympathetic strikes to compel the employers to grant the demands of the garment workers and tonmeters.-The-strikers-remain firm-in
