Bridgeport, Conn., Aug. 7.—Nearly 40 persona were killed by an accident on the Stratford extension of the Shelton Street Hallway Company Sunday, when a lmide 1 trolley car went oil the trestle over Peck's mill jKind at Oronoque, about six miles north of Bridgeport and sank in Hie Hats 40 feet below. Thus far lib persons are known to be dead and several more injured. Only two persons are known to have escaped unharmed, lt is believed there were 43 passengers on the car, but the indicator was removed by the conductor of another ear and spirited away, so that nt present it is impos*ible to state accurately the number aboard. The seene of the accident is midway between Shelton and Bridgeport. The car was northbound running toward Shelton. lt was in charge of conductor John Carroll of Bridgeport, who was among the killed, and Mntorman Hamilton of Bridge* port, who escaped by jumping. The trestle is 440 feat long, made of iron, with stone foundations and was not protected by guard rails. South of the trestle for about 10 feet the trucks left the rails, then the car contined on the ties about 75 feet, when it went oil* thc trestle and dropped into thc pond below, overturning completely and upending. < rusli.-.l hy the Motor. When the car struck the four-ton motor and the heavy trucks crushed into it, instantly killing many of the passengers. Three physicians who were passengers on a car a short distance behind, arrived quickly on the scene and rendered all possible assistance to lhe injured. Word was sent to Bridgeport nnd three ambulances and a police wagon were hurried to the scene and the injured were taken to the Bridgeport general hospital. A morgue was improvised in the main room of the town hall at Str.ttf r.l, nnd in a very short time 2.1 b diis were laid out awaiting identification. President Andrew Randell of the railroad company stated that it was impossible for him to account for the accident. Immediately after his arrival at the scene he made a thorough inspection of the tracks and trestle and could see nothing wrong, and cars were running over the trestle as usual soon afterwards. He denied that the ears were run at a high rate of'.speed, and claimed every possible precaution had been taken to prevent accidents. One theory advanced is thnt faulty connection was responsible for thc accident, At the point where lhe cars leave the road for the trestle it is alleged that the rails had sunk a little, and though the forward trucks took the rails all right, thc rear trucks did not connect and jumped the track, which caused the forward trucks to also leave thc iron, lt is believed that if the proper' guard rails had been placed alongside the track the car would not have toppled over. Karaite,! hy .l.i.i.pii.K. William Kelly of Bridgeport, in company with Miss Kartell, escaped death by jumping from the enr as it swayed to the lints below. Soon afterwards the car toppled over. He sustained a severe shock, but was otherwise uninjured. lie stated that the cars were not running unusually fast but the car was swaying considerably when it struck the trestle and he realized the danger and knew his only safety was in jumping. All the bodies of the Bridgeport dead and the unidentified were taken to the morgue at Bridgeport. It has been ascertained that 40 fares were registered and these, with the young children that did not have to pay, the motorman and conductor and an extra niotorniaii, who was being taught, make the probable number on the car 47.

There are indications that Spokane mining men are about to Investigate more earnestly than ever before the remarkable mineral showings in the hills around Newport, Wash. While rich ore is being shipped every week from that prosperous camp and lt is known that propertiee are being opened with showings unsurpassed In the northwest, there has been a lack of Interest In the camp due to the fact that those who were there were not as good at booming the camp as were the men Interested In others which have lately como to the front. .URE YOURSELFt Um BlgO for unnatur*, dlacharfr-pi, JuflammatJoai, irritation! or ulctration* of mncoDi m.-_bran«t.

ED1T6RUL OUTCROPPIXGS. I It seems an astounding fact, but a fact it is nevertheless, that a fe** mine managers have taken it upon themselves to dictate to the .sovereign people of British Columbia as to whether a law, enacted by their representatives in Parliament, should be allowed a fair trial or not. If these woul d-be dictators had tried the eight hcur system, then taken their preset t stand it would not have looked so bad. But to £ay "we know all about it ond will not tjive it a trial," is their policy, when, as a fact, it ia well known that some ot these mis-managers of mines in British Columbia acquired most of their mining experience On the cricket fi' Ul and lawn tennis courts of the old country, and owe their present positions, not to their knowledge of mining, but to their pull with the company's board of directors. When Buch men as W. A. Clark, James K. Pardee and R C. Chambers, successful mine managers with world wide, reputations and who, speaking from experience, endorse the eight hour system, is it not time for some of the pin heads in this country to cease making themselves ridiculous on this subject, and at least give the system a fair trial. Easter n stockholders of our various mines will learn in time no doubt, and at considerable expense, that a pair of yellow leggings is not the main necessity for a mine manager. The Opposition press haa the Senilin government in about the same position that Otis has Aguinaldo. That is, beaten and bro-*,eti up but with effrontery enough to bob up the next day apparently none the worse for wear.
