The dead may lie swelled to 1 .4, as sev eral were badly injured. The accident 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. hrTUe'fiagman has not been seen since the Sftrreck, and he is probably the only man ^who can give the real cause of the disas- Waycross Carriage Shop, S.

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.
