Lydia Weeks, cf 413 Madi.on avenue, was the woman the most severely Injured, and It was thought she was suffering from concussion. She was unable to talk and rroaned constantly. Indicating by her actions great pain In her chest and head. She was placed in the wrecked car, on one of the cushion?, until the arrival of the City Hospital ambulance, when she wa3 taken home. After being taken home it was found that thiee ribs had been broken. One of them penetrated the lung. She was al?o badly bruld about the hips and her wrist was Epraine I. She recovered consciousness about 1 o'clock and paid that she was In the rear end of the car and when the crash came was thrown to the floor helpless, and while in that position was trampled upon by a dozen or more men who hurried to get out of the car. Her physician. Dr. Rose, eald this morning her Injuries ere dangerous, but such that the outcome could not be determined. Hattie Gurley, whose nose was mashed, ulso occupied a seat in the car until sufficiently recovered to go home In a carriage. GR CAT CROWD GATHERED. Outside the car a great crowd had gathered, and in the darkness, when the police and the ambulances arrived, it was difficult to find the injured. Eaton Barnes had by that time been placed on one of the car '-ushlons which lay between the tracks. He was unconscious and wa3 bleeding at the ears and from wounds on the head. He was evidently suffering ,from concussion. It was with difficulty that two ment kept him from crawling off the cushion and on to the ground. He was taken to the City Hospital, and had not recovered consciousness at a late hour. His Injuries were thought to be possibly fatal. A man nho was said by pome at the scene of the accident to be Archie Staff, of Jefferson avenue, was badly bruised and cut about the head and was unconscious. Many thought he was dead. He was taken to the City Hospital, and as his injuries were thought to be more dangerous than the ethers he was prepared for a trepaning operation. This was performed at an early hour, but he had not recovered sufficiently to determine whether or not the operation would be successful. At the hospital there was nothln? by which he could be Identified. A street-car conductor's report slip In his pocket bore the name of "Archie Staff, Jefferson avenue." Bert Baldwin, of 233 East St. Joseph street, was taken to the City Hospital, and was the only one last night to recover consciousness. He complained about a pain In the spine. He was unable to give any account of the accident. Dr. Brigham. of 1S20 East Twelfth street, was thrown between the seats and severely bruised about the head. He was unable for a short time to get out, being pinned down by the seat, which was torn loose. MOTO UMAX'S INJURIES. The injuries of the motorman were not learned. He was badly bruised, but the manner In which he was injured could not be ascertained, as he left at once and was taken to the Union Station on a train and then to his home in a carriage. The front platform of the tar was not badly damaged, though the front end of the car was almost torn out. Few of the passengers knew anything about how the collision occurred. The crash came &o suddenly that few had an opportunity to see the headlight of the switch engine. Conductor Krauss said he walked ahead of the car and seeing the headlight of the engine waited and did not give the signal to "come ahead' to the motorman. He in- . slsts that the motorman acted without orders. Edward Vest, who Jumped from the car

before the collision, said he saw the headlight from the rear end; that he was looking out at the side and did not see the conductor signal for the motorman to "come ahead." Harry Bolsar, the yardmaster, said nar row escapes from collisions at that cross ing were C almost nightly occurrence, on account of the carelessness of the motormen or conductors. To use his own words: "I've missed some of those fellows by from seven inches to a foot nearly every night for the last six months." One of the yard men said the conductor of a Erightwood car which was out-bound and had stopped on the west side of the crossing to wait for tLe passage of the Monon engine, signaled the motorman of the wrecked car to stop, after he had started over.

miliar with the scene and the manner In

which the collision occurred blamed the conductor. It was impossible for them to conceive how he could stand alongside the track and not see the engine, which had a bright white headlight and red lights on the rear end. It was thought that he looked only In the direction from which the Monon engine came and did not turn so that he could see the L. I. & W. engine as it approached. After the passing of the Monon engine any movement of the arms might. It was sug gested, have been construed by the motorman as a signal to cross, and the I. E. & W. engine was hid from view to him by a string of cars standing on a track between him and the track upon which the L. E. & W. engine was running. The situation was such that the motorman would be unable to see the L. E. & W. engine until it passed the street line. Passengers corroborated the statement of the engineer as to the speed of the engine. Inquiry at the City Hospital at 3 o'clock this morning as to the condition of the in jured who were taken there showed there was little change In the condition of the three men, and the physicians were unable to say whether or not death would result In any of the cases. EXGI.NEEIl HEPLEYS STORY. Saym He XVnn Running; Slorrly, Other wise All Won Id Hare Been Killed. The engine which struck the car was switch engine Xo. C4, of the Lake Erie & Western. It was running backward and was manned by Engineer John Bepley, 206 Xorth Davidson street; Fireman Ed Fultz. 717 East Market street, and Brakeman Harry Bolser, 132 South Xoble street, and J. E. Bennett. Engineer Bepley told the following story of the accident: "I was backing down, coming from the north, and could not see the car. It ran right In front of me, and. although I reversed my engine and put on the brakes, I was too close and could not stop. When I struck the car It raised It into the air, the engine pushed it around and then shoved it over to on side. I was running slowly, and had I been coming with any speed the car would have been knocked into the side of the street and everybody in it would have been killed. The engine is a very heavy one, and how so many escaped and what prevented the car from ding demolished I cannot understand. "It seems strange to me how the conductor or motorman failed to see my engine. A train on the Monon had Just gone up and I suppofe their attention was attracted that way and they did not see me coming. There is a cut of. cars on each side of our track, and it was impossible for mc to see ahead. The steam bell was ringing, as It always does when the engine is in motion, and the headlight was burning, and It seems that we should have been noticed. I stopped my engine In almost twice its length after it struck the car, which shows that I was not running fast." Aewnpaper 31 nn 'a J arrow Escape. II. P. Brunaugh, a Journal reporter who was returning from the Overstreet meeting at Brightwood, had a most miraculous escape from sudden death in the wreck. He was sitting in the middle of the car with his back to the approaching engine and when the crash came he was hurled forward and through the opposite window. When picked up he was bleeding from several wounds about the face and hands. He reported at the office and was sent home. He was examined by Dr. Laycock. his father-in-law, and it was found that he was severely cut near the left eye and several stitches were necessary. The left cheek was badly bruised. His hands were lacerated by the glass from the window and the cinders on which he fell. He was alio shaken up by the shock, and it will be several days before he will be able to leave his house.

POPE LEO IS SATISFIED

UK PREFERS AMERICANS TO CON TROL THE PHILIPPINES. Yrchbishop Ireland Relate nn Interview He Had with the Head of the Catholic Church. XEW YORK, Oct. 19. Archbishop Ire land, in conversation to-day touching the sentimental attitude towards the Catholic Church In the Philippines and Cuba, remarked that he felt quite willing to repeat what was recently said to him in Rome on the subject. He said he did so the more readily that the eminent persons with whom he had the honor of conversing showed themselves to be in no way unwilling to have the statements made by them become public. The archbishop said: "In one of the audiences which he graciously granted me the Pope said; 'We are well pleased with the relations of the American government to tho church in Cuba and the Philippine Islands. The American government gives proof of good will, and exhibits in Its acts a spirit of justice and respect for the liberty and rights of the church. The reports we receive from bishops and others indicate this. Difficulties of detail occur as a consequence of war and of newness of complexions. But we understand such things. We have confidence in the intelligence and the spirit of justice of the American government, and believe that the future will not lead us to a change of sentiment towards it. Under the American government there will be due respect for rights of property and of conscience. You will thank, in my name, the President of the Republic for what is being done." "The cardinal sec 'etary of state, Rampolla, on my telling him of my conversation with the Pope, said the statements made to me by the Tope were such as he, from his own personal knowledge and belief, was ready to repeat, and that I was at liberty to make them known to the American people at large. The cardinal said, furthermore, that on no less than three different occasions petitions were pent to the Vatican, in the name of the Philippine leaders, to have opened between them and the Vatican direct official relations, but that the Vatican always refused to listen to such petitions out of consideration for the American government. 'The church,' said the cardinal, needs In Cuba and the Philippines the cooperation of the American government for the protection of its rights and liberties, as, indeed, the American government needs the co-operation of the church for the pacilication of those countries.' "Cardinal Gotti before his elevation to the cardinalate had been superior general of the Carmelite monks and had established in Cuba antecedently to the American occupation three houses of the order. He said to me: 'I received a few days ago letters from the several Carmelite houses in Cuba. The fathers tell me they enjoy under the present administration of the island full liberty, that they have undisturbed possession of all their property, and that they were never In better position to labor for the progress of religion and the salvation of souls.' "The authorities in Rome," added Archbishop Ireland, "are informed to a degree that both astonish and please me about matters religious and political in the Philippines and in Cuba; and as they have the Interests of the church in those coun tries most deeply at heart and know far better than we In America could know what best suits them. Americans, Catholics and others, may safely accept their Judgment of things and not give themselves further and needless trouble about the religious conditions of the Philippines or Cuba. As a plain matter of fact the only safety which the Catholic Church at the present time has in the Philippines for the possession of her properties and for the lives of her priests, is the protection afforded by the American flag, and all this Is fully understood and fully recognized In Rome." TRUSTS AGAIN. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) business under a Republican administra tion, but forbids them doing business under a Democratic administration." Entering then into a discussion of the general trust question, Mr. Bryan said: "I believe the time has come when the corporation should be compelled to keep Its hands out of politics and attend to its own business, for which it was organized. I am not willing that the Independence of the citizens should be destroyed, and if it is right for this company to coerce its em ployes it must be on the theory that a man who stands at the head of a corporation has a right to the votes of its employes, and if he had that, let us have a law enabling Mr. Metcalf to vote as many times as he has employes, so that none of the employes will get away from him. But if the vote belongs to the citizens, then let us have a law that will make it a penitentiary offense for a man to try to rob another man of his ctlzenshlp because he works for him. I want you who labor to understand that when you work you give to the man who employs you full recom pense for what he pays you, for if you did not ho would not employ you. They go on the theory that a man who works for another man ought to be under great obligations for a job. Why, my friends, Mr. Metcalf would not employ one single man if that man could not make enough to make his own wages and something besides for Mr. Metcalf to pay him for employing him. Then, if you give a full return for ftll that you get, why should you not have your citizenship as your own, and why don t you resent this damnable Insult that Is becom ing too common in American politics?" HANNA CRITICISED. In his Auburn speech Mr. Bryan dwelt at considerable length upon his theory that the Republican party is manifesting a ten dency towards a change of our form of government, and In this connection he said: "Mr. Hanna said tho other day that you ought not to swap horses while crossing a stream. What sacrilege for him to quote any word that Abraham Lincoln ever ut tered. But Mr. Hanna in applying Lin coin's remark to-day has mistaken the body of water. We are not crossing a stream. The Republican party Is trying to cross an ocean and get back on to Euro pean ground, where its ideas originated." Mr. Bryan also quoted an extract from a local Republican paper, telling of a farm w hich had been sold for $6.50 an acre, while it had been assessed for 916 an acre. Com menting upon this extract, Mr. Bryan said derisively: "Farmers now vote to keep present conditions, irey are so satlsfac tory that you cannot sell your land for half what It is assessed for for taxes. Go out and find out what percentage of taxes Is levied on your railroads. Go out and find out what percentage of taxes is levied on your large factories and see If they are assessed tor more than twice what they are worth if sold at public auction. If these conditions are satisfactory let every one who believes it vote the Republican ticket, because all Republicans tell you they will maintain present conditions." At Ithaca Mr. Bryan was given a hearty welcome. When he appeared on the speakers' stand he was met by a solid mass of students from Cornell University, who greeted him with the college yell. The speaking took place in front of the High School building. Judge Bulger was the tirst speaker, and while he was talking girls in tho High School building window. 1m mediately over the speakers' stand, low ered a picture of President McKinley. After the picture had hung out for about live nr-lnt'tes the young women were prevailed upon by persuasion and threats to remove the picture. While Mr. Bryan was talking another picture of the President was hung out from the window. This bore the inscription: "McKinley was right." The appearance of the poster called forth renewed shouts. both of derision and or approval, but Mr. Bryan said he had no objection to the poster. It was evident from the beginning of the meeting that the college students meant to at least relieve that meeting from all charges of monotony. Mr. Bryan was received with cheers and shouts, and he was scarcely given an opportunity to express his appreciation of the gratification he felt In being able to speak to tho .-tu1 ids, when one of them broke In with the query: "How about Xorth Carolina?" Mr. Bryan responded to thi question by ayins; "I

will come to that in a moment, but If you will not hide down there I will stop now

and telt you about lt. I will tell you that If you will examine the conditions prescribed by your administration for a voter in Porto Rico, you will lind that S3 per cent, of the colored men of voting age cannot vote in Porto Rico under this administration s qxialltlcatlons." This answer brought forth great ap plause, and one enthusiastic man remarked in a loud tone to the questioner; "I guess that will hold you for a while. Mr. Bryan continued: "I do not want you to hold me responsible for what Is done in Xorth Carolina while ycu shirk responsibility for what your own President has done in Porto Rico." THE COTTOX BA4.E TRUST. Mr. Bryan then expressed a willingness to answer any questions that any student might want to ask, providing his questioner would stand up and let him see him. He had scarcely begun his discussion of the trust question when some one made an inquiry about the cotton bale trust. Mr. Bryan replied to the effect that the cotton bale company owned a patent for baling cotton and that it did not bale one-twentieth of the cotton produced in this country. "And yet," he said, "men who how! about a patent that does not bale onetwentieth of the cotton will vote for a party that allows a salt trust to control 93 per cent, of the salt of the United States. I want to ask whether the man who wor ries, about the cotton bale and does not worry about salt is ignorant or dishonest?" Having replied to this inquiry Mr. Bryan himself volunteered to take up the ice trust question. He said: "Now I will stop long enough for the ice trust man to ask his question. I want to tell you that every director of that trust is a Republican. Why don't you complain about that? I want to tell you that the Governor of the State is a Republican, that the Legislature is Re publican, and if the Governor and Legisla ture would do their duty you would not have any ice trust in the State of Xew York." Here there was an interruption from the crowd and a voice in the outskirts called out: "How about Croker?" Mr. Bryan turned sharply and said: "Mr. Croker has no stock in the ice trust. But why are you worried about Croker when you are not afraid of Piatt?" He had not finished his reply to the question about the ice trust when a young man who appeared to be a student made an inquiry about the free coinage of silver, eliciting from Mr. Bryan the following: "Well, my friend, I stand to-day where William McKinley used to stand before he bowed to the dictation of Wall street, and if you will defend him for changing his opinion I will defend myself for not changing my opinion. But let me proceed." From the same voice: "Answer the question." Mr. Bryan: "I have replied to you, sir. You do not have to ask questions. Look in our platform and you will find our position on every question. You dare not state yours in a platform or on the stump. Our platform is our views on every question." GOT NO DIRECT ANSWER. The young man Insisted upon a. further response and repeated several times, "Answer, answer." Mr. Bryan responded; "I have answered you, sir. I can't give you understanding; I can simply give you an answer." There was then a let-up in the questions here and Mr. Bryan was permitted to go on with his speech. He attempted to show that the Republican pafty was making an inconsistent record, and in doing so spoke of the Porto Rico bill. Soon afterwards there was a miscellaneous assortment of questions hurled at Mr. Bryan in indistinct tones of voice. Taking cognizance of them he said: "Do you think it is fair to interrupt me with questions on a subject that I am not discussing when I am going to give you a chance when I come to it? Haven't I been fair with you? Haven't I sought to answer all your questions? Don't you think you can wait until I reach a subject and then ask me questions concerning it?" Continuing his speech Mr. Bryan said: "I want to say to yon that the Republican party has no plank In this campaign on any subjects that it is prepared to defend before the American people." A voice in the crowd: "Wait till November." Mr. Bryan: "That Is no argument at all to say: 'Wait till November.' The question Is, are you willing to think now? Why wait till Xovember to do something that you ought to do now? Why don't you think now and not wait until after the election to think?" It was here that the McKinley poster, bearing the inscription, "McKinley Was Right," was lowered from a window above Mr. Bryan's head and then let fall to the ground. Seeing the picture floating out Into the air, an old gentleman in the crowd exclaimed. "That is the way he will fall in Xovember!" Mr. Bryan took notice of the incident, saying: "I do not object to that poster being put out. It says that McKinley was right, but the question is, when was he right? He has been on both sides of every question. Xow, which side was he on when he was right?" He proceeded for some time without any Interruption, but at last a young man standing in the audience, but separated from the mass of students In front of Mr. Bryan, asked him for an explanation of his attitude in the matter of the ratification of the Paris treaty. Mr. Bryan replied: "You have asked a question. I want to ask you one. I am going to answer yours. Will you answer mine? What is your plan?" Mhe young man: "I have not got any. I am down here open to conviction. You are talking to all of us. You came here especially to convince us." Mr. Bryan: "Yes; and I am mighty glad I have found a man open to conviction, and I hope you are not like the Scotch woman who said she was open to conviction, but added, I would like to see the man who can convince me.' " Mr. Bryan then gave his customary reason for supporting the treaty and continued his speech without further Interruption. At Binghamton, where Mr. Bryan had the largest and most enthusiastic audience of the day, he took special notice of the fact that some of the manufacturing plants of that town were closed, saying: "It is strange to me that it Is necessary for you people to have an empty and silent tannery and match factory in a town In order to know what a trust means and will do." Bryan Accept Silver Nomination. ROCHESTER, W Y., Oct. 19.-Mr. Bryan to-day mailed a letter to the notification committee of the Silver Republican part), accepting that party's nomination for the presidency. He announces that he stands on its platform, whose chief plank is 16 to 1 silver. He also says: "I Inclose the following documents and make them a part of this letter: "First My speech at Indianapolis In reply to the Democratic notification committee, dealing with imperialism, militarism and the resolution expressing sympathy for the Boers. "Second-My letter formallj accepting the Democratic nomination, covering other planks of the platform. "Third My speech accepting the Topullst nomination, dealing with .those issues upon which the Democrats and Populists occupy common ground. "Fourth My speech delivered at St. Louis, Sept. 15, on the trust question." Ilrynn Aenin A pot h eo I sen Croker. ROCHESTER, X. Y.. Oct. 13. Mr. Bryan's attention was called to-night to a statement to the effect that Governor Roosevelt had in a speech to-day quoted him as saying that "Mr. Croker was the greatest man in the world," and had made a speech In which he had used this ns a text. After reading the statement Mr. Bryan said: "I would not have been guilty of offending Governor Roosevelt and Senator Hanna and Senator Piatt by making such a comparison. At the last meeting Tuesday night in New York I said: 'This Is the fourth great meeting of the series of Tammany ratification meetings, and in view of the immense attendance I am prepared to say, "Great Is Tammany, and Croker Is its prophet." ' Do you we anything in that to justify the statement submitted?'

The secretary of state for India, Lord George Hamilton, has received the following from Major General Campbell, dated Wang-Chia-Fou. Oct. 1C: "Arrived here without opposition. Two thousand Chinese cavalry retreated southward.-. Lieutenant King sent with a communication to French general officer, left We-Nan-Sian at 2 p. m., yesterday, and returned here at 5 p. m. to-day with orders, having ridden eighty miles on one horse. Gaselee 1 at Sung-LIn-Tien, six rrnies southwards of Che-Chow. The Chinese regulars are retreating. The local governments appear to be trying to eup press the Boxers. Thirteen heads of Boxers were hanging on the gate of Che-Cho when we entered., The foregoing dispatch relates to the Fao-Ting-Fu expedition. Reliable unofficial reports from TienTsin say the advance guard of the allied forces entered Pao-Ting-Fu on "Wednesday, Oct. 17. The city, it Is added, was practically deserted and offered no resistance. The British column captured seventeen Imperial soldiers at We-Nan-Sien, Oct. 10. who were part of the force of two thousand men sent to disperse the Boxers in that region. The captives assert that they killed two hundred Boxers and were returning . to Pa-Chow when they were fired upon and dispersed by the French. The British confiscated their arms and horses and released the iniicrial soldiers. Runners report that many Chinese are returning to the villages in the path of the German and French column. The Cabinet Meeting. WASHINGTON. Oct. 13. The Cabinet meeting to-day was"Uevoted principally to the consideration of the Chinese situation. After the meeting the members seemed impressed with the favorable turn matters had taken and the prospect of a satisfactory adjustment. The government has received the proposals of LI Hung Chang and Prince Chlng, offering indemnity and guarantees for the future, and they have been accepted In good faith. The Cabinet considered that the Chinese government, in admitting that it had been wrong and in offering to make proper reparation, as well as offering to provide against a repetition of disorders, had placed itself in the proper position and had opened the way to negotiations for a complete settlement. For th present the negotiations will proceed through Minister Conger. The Chinese government his made- a request on Secretary Hay that negotiations begin to-morrow at Peking looking to a settlement of the Chinese question. It is said at the State Department that Minister Conger's instructions are surllcient In breadth to enable him to proceed with ne gotlations to-morrow without further orders from the department. The ChlnK-LI Note .ot S t lafaclory. BERLIN, Oct. 13. The Joint note of LI Hung Chang and Prince Chlng has not made a good impre.hion in government circles here. The general comment Is that the note reads more like conditions imposed on the conqurrd than the revers. Ir. Mumm Von Schwat tzens-tein, German minister to China, will arrive In Peking in the course of a few days. Ll Hung Chang and Prince Chlng a111 be informed formally of the conditions upon which the powers have agreed. CJermany takes the view, however, that such a declaration by the powers could not be considered tho commencement of negotiations, as Mich a step as negotiating for ix-ace would only Ik possible after the removal of all doubt that LI Hung Chang und l'rin Chin are fully empowered by the Chinese Imperial court.
