EIGHTEEN LOSE LIFE
In Frightful Rear-End Collision
of Trains in California.
VICTIMS CRUSHED IN DlBRIS
Twenty-Seven Injured Taken to Hos¬
pital in San Francisco—Cause
i of Wreck an Unexplained
Mystery.
r *
A special from Byron, Cal., says;
Eighteen persons were killed and twen
ty-seven injured In a collision Satur¬
day night between the southbound Los
Angeles “Owl” train and the Stockton
flyer about 70 miles out from Sail Fran
cisco. It was a rear-end collision, the
engine of the local plowing its way
into the last coaches of ihe Owl, which
was filled with Fresno people. The pas
eengerB who escaped death were hurl
ed to the fore part of tho coach,
crushed <n between the mass of do
bris, their sufferings and danger inten
sifted a. hundred fold by the clouds of
scalding steam that poured out upon
the mfrom the shattered boiled of tho
Stockton engine.
After the Owl left the Oakland mole
It. was noted that there was a leak in
the flue of the engine. Thin increased
to such an extent, that. It was deemed
advisable to stop at Byron to take up
a freight engine for relief. Tbe train
officials knew that, the Stockton local
train wars following a half hour behind
nnd a flagman was sent back to give
warning ” of the presence of the Owl.
It is said , that the Stockton , train, , In
charge Of Engineer McGuire nnd Fire
man Joyce, got the warning signal in
time, and gave the usual response with
whistle blasts. Why the incoming
train wail not checked, however, lias
not. tliuii far boon explained,-the men
who could give the facts being num
tiered among the badly Injured. On
came the train, with apparently no
diminution of speed, anti the Fresno
coach was completely telescoped.
It seems miraculous that the horror
of fire was not added to the dire
ful disaster, but the ponnC'! up victims
wore, with seemingly Providential in
terventlon, spared from flame, for the
oil burners were extlngushed when tho
crawlt came.
Later advices state that there are
fears that the total will roach twenty.
Most of the wounded passengers, who
were too severely injured to be taken

VENEZUELA APPROVES MOVE
Roosevelt Suggested Submission of
Trouble to Hague, But Powers
Demurred and Made the
Counter Proposition,
A Washington special says: Presi¬
dent Roosevelt has proposed to the al
lied powers that the Venezuelan dis
pute be submitted to the arbitration of
The Hague tribunal. The powers have
replied with a counter proposal that
President Roosevelt himself arbitrate
the issues,
These were the developments of Sat¬
urday night in the Venezuelan matter
and they seem to justify the prediction
made in prevous dispatches that the
critical point had been passed.
The president was reluctant to ac¬
cept the proposition, but judging from
private American advices which have
been received in London, President.
Roosevelt as arbitrator would be fa¬
vorably disposed toward the temporary
adoption rf some such method as was
arranged with (he Venezuelan secret
mission and communicated to the
state department by Isaac l.igman •
With President Roosevelt acting as ar
bitrator, the serious objections In the ;
mutter of guarantees, which frequent¬
ly have be( n mentioned at the foreign «
office and in press dispatches, would j

This was understood to mean that

ASSISTANT SENT TO BOWEN.
-
Navy Department Wires Dewey ta
Dispatch Executive Officer of
Gunboat Marietta to Caracas.
The following cablegram was gent
Wednesday by the navy department
to Admiral Dewey, in command of the
combined fleets, addressed to San
Juan:
"Send competent officer with dis¬
patch in torpedo boat destroyer or oth¬
er vessel to Caracas as assistant to
American minister.’’
The following cablegram also was
sent to Commander Diehl, of the Mari¬
etta, now lying at LaGuira:
"Send Van Dusen (executive officer
of the Marietta), assistant to American
minister temporarily.”
The officer from Dewey's fleet will
relieve Lieutenant Commander Van
Dusen who is only an hour distant
from Caracas, when he arrives upon
the scene. While no explanation is
given for the above orders it is be
lieved these measures arc being taken
to guard against, an Interruption in the
cable connecting Mr. Bowen with bis
home government.
1 was stated at the navy department
that one reason for sending the officers
to Caracas was the fact, that Mr. Bow¬
en Is almost overwhelmed with the
work imposed upon him by his many
charges. He has nearly all of the
English residents in Caracas domiciled
In the American legation and is 1 ced¬
ing them from his own table. As for
the torpedo boat destroyer, it is point¬
ed out that it will serve as a dispatch
boat to keep Mr. Bowen in touch with
the nearest cable station to La Guay
ra which can be relied upon to trans
mit messages to Washington in case
the La Guayra cable is cut. as an inci¬
dent to the blockade. No further or
ders than that noted above went for
ward to Admiral Dewey
The stale department has received
no response thus far to the message
,f,nt to the European foreign office i
relative to the arbitration proposition,
lt lR not know,, h,, rB whether Presi
dent Castro will consent to apologize
as a condition precedent to arbitration
but it Is hoped that Minister Bowen
can Induce him to do so, if 1111 will
he sufficient to meet the demands of
Ibe allies. [I Is pointed out here, how
ever, that the further proseeuti -n of
attacks on \ enezuelan forts wt i make
an adjustment Just that much more
difficult. If apologies * are tendered
and accepted, , . then the . critical .... phase
tho tiitUftiioti Will be removed and
some time may lift spoilt in an arrange
ment of the basis upon which the arbi¬
tration should be conducted. Tills
wlil be a difficult problem, for it is
anticipated that the allies will base
their acceptance of the arbitration on
an agreement by Venezuela to Instruct
the arbitrators to accept certain prill
cl plea in advance which would com
mit Venezuela to a recognition of an
indebtedness of about ItS.oon.ftOO.
Arbitration Seems Assured.
A special from Caracas under Wed¬
nesday’s date says: it ha* been de¬
cided that the Venezuelan difficulty
shall be arbitrated, ami the discussion
of terms of settlement is now going on.
United States Minister Bowen un¬
doubtedly will be one of the arbitra¬
tors. The government fears that coer
ctve measures will follow the estab¬
lishment of the blockade.

Fluid Used to Kill Hyacinths in Flor¬
