The dead may lie swelled to 1 .4, as sev

happened in this way:
The Illinois Central passenger train
had stopped to water at the tank, a quar
ter of a mile north of Mantino.
The first section of No. 45 came to a
stop, but it is said no flagman was sent
back to flag the second section. It is a
straight track for two or three miles,and
if a flagman had been sent back the en
gineer of the second section could not
nave failed to have seen him.
On the other hand, it is said that the
engineer on the second train was asleep
and that the fireman was throwing coal
into the firebox. Both the engineer and
the fireman saw the train ahead of them
just in time to jump. They had a nar
row escape for their lives.
^ From Another Source.
Another account from Manteno says:
Last night the second section of the
Big Foul* passenger train crashed into
the rear of the first section that had
•topped unexpectedly at a point 10 miles
ttotu another tana, telescoping the
weeper and two coaches and killing and
seriously injuring a large number of peo
ple. Noneof tho first train's hands were
left alive to account for the wreck.
It is said that a man was sent back
fropi the first section of the train as soon
a# .a stop was made necessary by some
defective machinery in the locomotive.

WILL RICHARD RETIRE?
llansflrld Ha* Announced That He Will
I^ave the Stage.
Cleveland, O., Sept. 20.—“I shall
never return to Cleveland again, and I
have told my wife that I would quit the
stage at the end of the present year. If
I do not, 1 sh ill be in an asylum sooner
or later.”
This is the language which Mr. Rich
ard Mansfield is credited with using
here. All his stage properties were at
tached immediately after.the perform
ance at Euclid Avenue Opera house.
Manager A. F. Hartz had sued out an
attachment against him for $1,500,
charging that he had violated his con
tract by refusing to appear after the
first act of “Tne scarlet Letter” Wednes
day night.
Mr. Mansfield says he was threatened
with an attack of nervous prostration,
while the mauager asserts that the actor
was in a huff simply because the curtain
fell on the act three seconds late.
Bond was secured and the properties
released soou enough to catch a midnight
train for Boston. Mr. Mansfield declares
he will figjii the case to the bitter end.

excel the dry, hot climate of Calirornia in the production of fine fruits ; but to do
