Long Island City. L. L. August 27.—
An accident that ooat the lives of four
teen people occurred shortly after mid
night this morning in the village of
Berlin in the township of Newton. The
Long Island train that left Manhattan
-beach at 1:15 o’clock waa overtaken by
the train that left Rockaway beach
flfta-n minutes earlier, in one u«iu<i»
collision that ensued the two rear tars
of the five that made up the Manhattan
beach train were demolished and the
middli car was overturned. Hardly
one of the passengers aboard ttx-ee three
car* reaped unhurt.
Following is a list of th« dead:
Col. E. A. Buck. 55 years of age. edi
tor Spirit of the Times.
Oscar Dictzel ,40 years of age. No. 1-2
East Fourteenth street.
Mrs. Maggie Dictzel, his wife. 29 year*
hurt. All were shaken up severely and
some badly bruised, but all were able
to get to their homes without assist
ance.
All day long both Newton and Long
Island City have been besieged by
anxious seekers for misslug members
of their families. The scenes of some
of the people were heartrending on
finding those who for the last time
they were seeking. Many did not find
those for whom they weye seeking and
went away in a sharp contrast with
those who found loved ones dead and
mangled.
Removing the Wreckage.
At the scene of the accident wrecking
trains and a big force of ranlroad em
ployes have been working all day to
obliterate the painful evidence of the
disaster. The smashed ears wore piled
up and burned. The -twisted rails and
broken switches wore xepaierd and the
blood pools hidden under shovolfull* of
General Manager E. R. Reynolds and
Superintendent W. H. Blood were at
the scena They stated that, the c-ause
of the accident was still unknown; that
ift was a question of vsracity between
the tower switchman. Nutt, and En
gineer Concrite of the Rocksuway train.
The latter had reported that a heavy
fog prevailed alt ihe time which was
dense. He declared that the signals
v.<re set at safety, indicating a clear
toad, and he want ahead without re
ducing speed. Suddenly Fireman Price*,
his companion, exclaimed: “My God,
man, there is a train ahead!“
Looking ahead h? saw through the
mist the two red lights that always
hang a>t the rear end of a train, and
declares that he immediately reversed
his« eugin-i* ana put cn steam brakes.
Then he and Fireman Price Jumped for
their lives. When the wrecked engine
was examined this morning his state
ment as to the revensed lever and
brakes wore found to be tmi.\ The on
ly* remaining question was, to whether
he or Nutt were right about the dang tr
signal. This morning It was set at
danger and Nutt inested it had re
mained no ever since fa? set it to warn
Engineer Concrite. General Manager
Reynolds and Superintendent Blood
aook all those statement* and will hold
a rigid examination tomorrow.
Theodoro Gray, the engineer who was
severely injured, died this afternoon.

The accident happened at half an
hour after midnight. It w over an
hour before any news of It reserv'd
any outside point. It came by a mes
senger who walked Into Done Island
CVty. The railroad evwnpauy imme
diately dispatched a relief train with
all the physicians obtainable, consisting
of Dr. Valentine, the nurgeon of the
read, and Dr*. H jlkecn. Kennedy.Dcyle
and McKowen. They found an appall
ing Mato of affairs. The Manhattan
besoh train bad been standing In the
block to allow an extra train to set at
a safe distance. The Rocks way beach
train dashed along behind in the mama
block and crashed into the rear of the
Manhattan beach train. Both were
crowded with excarxiontsts and both
wire the last trains from their respec
tive resort. There were five car, on
the Manhattan beach train, in all ten
can. The Rockaway beach train
plungvd tn and pioushed its way com
plete! through the two rear ears, partly
wrecking the third. Passengers In the
three resr ears wer» maimed and man
gled horribly and their shri-ka of prayer
were awful. The Rockaway engine was
anecked; its smokestack waa carried

Chicago Fighting for a Cash Oasis fn
the West.
St. Louis, Aug. 27.—All the St Louis
banks have received a letter from the
First National Bank of Chicago which
Is accepted ns a declaration of war be
tween that metropolis and New York.
It comes tn the form of an explanation
that Chicago cannot accept checks on
New York and other Eastern points
and credit them at nar. The most sig
nificant reason advocated 4s as follows;
Chicago banks are paying currency.
The banks in New York and Borne of
the other large Eastern cities are prac
tically paying no currency now, but
checks on them, when presented nt.
their counters are certitled "Good
through clearing house only.” In the
clearing house balances arc settled In
’certificates." Money In Nfw York
commands a premium over bank
checks of from 1-2 to to 2 per cent.,
and ns high ns 3 per cent, lias li.-cu
paid. li is therefore evident that un
less Chicago can sell drafts on New
York at a discount about equal to ’ho
premium paid on money there nobody
will buy them. On the contrary, par
ties here having targe remittances or
payments to make there will draw cash
and send It to New York and sell it at
a premium is bank checks, which
serve the purpose in New York of gen
eral payment. It being In order to
forestall such action, Chicago banks
arc trying to sell their New York ex
change at a discount about equal, as
ulrcady explained, to the premium paid
In Now York on currency. The house
being obliged to sell at a discount. It
is manifest that however we might
like to accommodate our correspon
dents by continuing ..to credit Eastern
exchange ot par, we cannot do so
while the condition explained above
prevails. . .
The letter winds tip by asking the
co-operation of Western banks goner-

People often say, “There is aright w&y

is a great mistake. There, may be but
one right way, but <t»are are very many
wrong ways. Airtt the more artistic a

there are to do it.
I find also that the persons who go oft*
encstto the Art palace havo their own
definition of art. It does not mean paint
ing or sculpture only. It means anything*
In which thought or a sense of beauty is
fixed in a visible form, and so they class
all sorts of things in gold, silver, bronze,
leather, wood, glass, and oven butter, tal
low and lard, as works of art. There is a
lard hog in one of the exhibits to which &
friend called my attention as a curious
work of art. Says I, “Do you call that
art. To me it is almost repulsive.” Says
he, “That’s the beauty of the hog—it is
artistically ugly.” I had not thought of
that In the same class I snppose belongs
tho ivory “Ganesa” in the Hindoo exhibit
It looks to me like a fat woman with an
elephant’s head on her, but they say it is
art. But to return to tho Art palace.
All the cultured onea I know say that
this exhibit shows how modern painters
are rapidly coming to care less about mere
beauty than the expression of truth and
that as this goes on painting is popular
ized. Sculpture moves much more slowly
in the‘same direction. Pursuant to advice
e£ a cultured friend I attempted to see and
understand all tho pictures of the Virgin,
and when I got through with it the only
really clear idea I had about them was
that expressed once by Mark Twain—that
the painter had invariably made her a
Dutch, a French, an English or woman of
some other people according to his own
nationality, but not one had ever made
her what she waa—a Jewess. The ques
tion at onco rose in my mind—it It the
same with the pictures of Christ? I ex
amined many more carefully and fourd
that several painters had given Him a
really Jewish cast of face, somewhat ideal
ized of course; but why this distinction be
tween the Christ and the Virgin I cannot
imagine. It is of course absurd to sup
pose that Mary looked like a stout, blonde
Flemish woman, but ths is so represented
in several pictures here.
on a throne, over him a lotus leaf canopy.
Ho Is pouring oil on tho head of a boy and
the attendant priests are conducting the
religious ceremonies. The action is Hin
doo, but the faces ll*o Greek. Another
figure, unearthed by H. C. Thomson Just
after Surgeon Stonoy’s discovery had
caused a general search, represents an
orator. It is pure Greek throughout, face,
form and costume and ir so much like the
famous statue of Demosthenes at Athens
that some think it represents that orator.
As the find was in tho Peshawer district
which Alexander conquered in 830 B. C.,
this is not entirely Improbable, though
from their political relations I cannot see
why the conqueror should have had that
orator commemorated there.
Buddhism is always to bo spoken of
with profound respect because it is the
faith of one-third of the human race, but
it. certainly is not a very artistic faith.
And looking on this odd combination of
the art of one nation with the faith of an
other I am again impressed with tho old,
old problem: How did it happen that a
faith so lightly held, if indeed it could bo
called a faith, as the mythology of the an
cient Greeks, gave form to the most beau
tiful and most enduring of all develop
ments of art? With a sort of rude humor
the exhibitors have surrounded thise
beautiful and curious figures with the
queerest array of unsightly gods in the
whole building. There are gods of stone,
wood, bone, shells and feathers, and some
that look like sun-baked mud, from the
south sens and Alaska, from the Maoris
of New Zealand and the'.Gaboon in Africa.
They are classed, however, as objects of
superstition, not of art.

TITK BIO TREE IN GOVERNMENT BUILDING,
taught and the most cultured and the sec
tion of the great Sequoia which stands in
the rotunda of the Government building
always has a great crowd about it, gazing
in silent wonder. It is thirty feet in
length, with a diameter at tho baso of
twenty-eix feet and a circumference of
elghty-ono and a half feet. The tree was
800 feet high and thissectlon was cut from
it at twenty feet from the ground. It is a
curious fact in giant botany that on every
part of that greAt mountain range, that is
on the western slope, and at about the
same elevation, big timber grows, from
for down in California to far up in British
Columbia.
In tho northern part of California I once
journeyed seventy miles through a forest
where, so far at I could see, noaxohad
ever been used. The trees ranged from
one to ten feet in diameter, with a few
much larger; they rose about 100 foet with
out a limb and their spreading tops were
so thickly joined that xor an hour’* travel
at a time one never fonnd tho sun's rays
striking tho earth. Far abovo tho sighing
of the wind was heard and tho higher
branches could be seen swaying before it,
bat down among tho mammoth trunk*
there was a dead calm. Now vast strip*
of that wonderful region bear nothing but
stumps, but the figures In the \Y**hlng-
ton building still claim 23,000,000 acres ot
unbroken forest for that state, uti winch
are still standing tho raw materials of
410,000,000,000 feet of sound inch lumber,
worth as it stand* 9200,000,000. “And,”
flrasahtbitor with grim humor, “your
goll demed congress can’t demonetize
that.”
Mrs. Mary Miller, who own* a generous
tract of this tall timber, selected the
*traightest and prettiest “stick’’ she could
find on her land for a flagstaff for the
Washington building. It is straight os
an arrow and was 228 feet long, but lu
bringing it down to the railroad twenty-
three feet wa* broken off, so, a* they say,
“our state ho* to put up with a little weed
of a flagstaff only 205 feet high.’’ More
than one-fourth the entire population of
tho state depend* on tttb lumber Industrie*
for labor And business, but as 1,000,000
acres of splendid coal lands aro already
located and opened enough to prove them,
and there in much more, that interest
must eventually be greater. The big trees
of California are shown In many places
and the whole Forestry building is itself
an exhibit, being composed of every kind
of logs and bark from every state in tho
Union. It illustrates the forestry wealth
of the world iu a general way and of the
United States in complete detail.
