Coal Found Near Denver
DENVEU Colo Sept 19Suecial tle
grain to THE HERALD The Eureka Oil
and Gas company which recently com
menced boring on its property at the inter
section of Plum creek and Platte river
about fifteen miles south of this city has
struck a vein of coal at the depth of only
100 feet The coal is described as being
hard burns freely with a clear white ash
and is thought t be superior in quality to
the lignite coals of northern Colorado The
vein is 5 feet thick and its proximity to the
city will add immensely to its value All
toe railroad lines south from the city pass
within a short distance of the present bor
ing and i extensive mines can be opened
there coal can be cheaply marketed as rap
idly as i reaches the surface Great se
crecy attends the borings of the Denver
Gas and Oil company at Morrison It is
learned however that drilling is being
prosecuted very carefully to avoid the pos
sibility of crooked bering The depth of
nearly 1900 has been reached the lat et
portion of which is through very hard
rock With indications that when the pres
ent stratum is pierced oil may be expected
4 Goulds Meal Railroad Association I I
OMAHA Nob Sept 19Special tele
gram to Tim KEIULD The rumor sent
out last night from Chicago that Jay
Gould had formed an ideal railroad associa
tion its title being the Southwestern
Railway and Steamship association caused
a profound surprise in railroad circles in
Omaha and according to the latest details
all the lines south of Kansas City and west
of the Missouri river have long felt the
need of a strong association None of the
existing agreements suited and Jay Gould
has quietly been working for a year over
the formation of an agreement which will
be strong enough to compel every line to
dos it should A fortnight ago the presi
dents of all the roads interested met in
New York and signed a cast iron agree
ment which absolutely prevents disastrous
rate wars
General Freight Manager Whitney of
the Union Pacific when asked about this
latest move on the part of Gould said the
plan bad been attempted several times be
fore and was a big thing I would have
considerable influence on railroad business
in this section as there would have to be a
concert of action en through business be
tween the southern roads and those in this
section Mr Whitney was of the opinion
that beforetho matter went much further
there would be several more roads in
eluded in the association

READING Penna 19 Onejof the worst
wrecks ever known in this section occurred
tonight on the Reading railroad seven
teen miles tom here Near Shoemaker
vie there is a curve where the railroad is
about eighteen or twenty feet higher than
the Schuylkill river Here shortly before
0 oclock a freight train ran into a coal
train throwing several cars on to tho
opposite track Before the train
hands had any time to warn any
approaching train of the danger the
Pottsville express carrying about a hun
dred and fifty passengers came round tho
curve at the rate of forty miles an hour
and ran into the wrecked coal cars The
engine went down tho embankment fol
lowed by the entire train with the human
freight The scene was one of great hor
ror The cries of the imprisoned passengers
were heartrending Some of tho passengers
managed to crawl out of the prison and
aroused the neighborhood Word was tele
graphed to this city and surgeons and a
lorce of 300 workmen were taken to the
spot The work was slow and the dead
and dying were taken out with great
difficultly Up t 10 oclock tonight
six dead and thirty wounded had been
taken out Of the latter some werebrought

The wrecked train is still lying at the t
bottom of the river The exact number on I 1
the passenger list is not known and
lst a re 1
porter who is still on the ground telephones
he believes there are still twentyfive or
more bodies underneath the wreck or who
were carried away by the current
Later 1180 The Associated Press
agency has just had direct communication
with a representative at the wreck who
says a conservative estimate places the
number of killed at forty to fifty I is I
almost impossible to estimate the exact
number and the full horror of the situa
tion will not be known until a later
hour At 1 oclock Mail Agent
reenwalds body was taken out
followed by the horribly mangled
bodies of two Mahoney City firemen on
their way homo from Chester
At midnight thirteen bodies had been re
covered The names of those known are
already given Five bodies are exposed to

One of the passengers who escaped with
slight inujries said to an Associated Press
reporter at midnight When the crash
came I was hurled from my seat One end
of the car splashed into the river and I
was thrown against the side of the car
with a force that partially stunned me I
quickly recovered myself and managed to
climb upon the seats on that side of
the car which lay against the embankment
I was a prisoner in the car and while I was
nursing my sprained ankle and wrist out of
joint I realized I was in a scene of veritable
horror Around and about me were human
beings struggling in the water screaming 1
in fright and some almost dragged me back
into the water again A few saved them
selves a I did and the romainderstruggled
in the water and then quietly sank out of
sight
Professor Mitchell of Lehigh university
Bethlehem is amongthe injured at the
Reading hospital Lawrence Barnes of
Philadelphia had his arm dislocated Tho
body of John L Milner of Cresson was
taken out at midnight
At 3 oclock this morning 303 men are
still at work but making slow progress
Fifteen bodies have been taken out None
of the bodies have been taken from the
scene of the disaster
Kahn McDonohugh JacU Noll and
William Johnson of Shenandoah
andL I John Strauss of Schuylkill
Haven are among the latest Injured re
ported It is still believed that twenty or
more bodies are beneath the wreck Noth
ing definite will be known until the wreck
is raised which will probably be tomorrow
night
No more names can bo secured The
telephone office has closed and that was the
only means of getting news The only re
porter to get to the scene was one or the
Eagle men and he telephoned down nearly
all that was secured to the Reading papers

The House bill to reduce the amount of
United States bonds required of national
banks und restore to tho channels of trade
the excessive accumulations of lawful
money in the treasury having been reached
on the calendar Plumb said he believed its
passage xvould tend much to quiet even the
present agitation in the money market
Undoubtedly tho effect of tho bill
would be not only to prolong
but encourage the national bank system
Plumb feared the bill would finally result
in a contraction of the currency While
he agreed that the national banking system
as a system of discount and deposit was
wise and ought to be continued it was
plain to be fen it was not long t be a
system hair relation to the currency
The banks themselves wanted to et out of
that business Congress could not afford
to let the national bank currency disappear
without supplying a currency in its place
He believed the business of tho country in
greater peril than for years from the lack
of a sufficient circulating medium
Power moved to strike out the first sec
tion reducing t 1010 the deposit of
bonds to return charters After further
discussion the bill went over till tomor

Clayton in tho immense building at Con
gress hal which is one of the Salvation
armys metropolitan barracks For hours
before the appointed time bands of Salva
ionists were streaming towards the hall
from every side Some came in gorgeous
uniforms with bands and waving banners
thousands of men and women wore only
their every day garments making up in
fervor what they lacked style The en
thusiasm passed all bounds At last the
leader appeared leading the bride and
groom Those who had handkerchiefs par
asols newspapers or canes to wave waved
them shouting the while those who were
emptyhanded shouted louder if possible
Finally the tumult wore itself out and the
general began the marriage service after
the Salvationist fashion The bride xvas
simply dressed in the usual serge bonnet
and gold She was then interrogated by
the general remarking playfully that it was
not yet too late to retreat Finally amid
wild hurrahs the general clasped their
hands and said Those whom God has
joined together let no man or devil pub
asunder
Ai this point the scene on the platform
somewhat resembled the culminating poinv
of a grand spectacular ballet The back
ground was dense with the blue and scarlet
uniforms of the excited Salvationists
wdile the venerable general with his beard
and hair in picturesque disorder held over
the heads of the newly made couple a ban
ner bearing the words blood and fire
The young wife not t bit embarrassed
gazed lovingly into her husbands eyes
showing as she turned a red white and blue
sash hung over her shoulder and bearing
the words Evermore Gods
The musicians blew themselves black in
the face and the crowd became frantic
Here was a proper time for a collection
whica was large and then the bridegroom
sang a song composefi by the bride who in
turn sang one composed by the bridegroom
After this both made rousing speeches and
seemed to become so absorbed in their sub
jects as to forget the occasion of their
presence The bride showed herself a
woman however by coquetishly remark
lug pointing to her husband I wont say
much that is complimentary about you it
is not good for any woman think woman
has a special responsibility to keep a man
humble
