Two hundred persons were in the court room when the educator and banker was brought from his cell. He was accompanied by his son Ralph, an officer, and Attorney W. T. Irwin. The attorney addressed the court, saying that his client had turned over all his property, together with power of attorney, to Irwin. He said that the estate would be settled with all expe­ dition, and that the proceeds would more than cover the defalcation in the school funds. His client admit­ ted, he said, that he had been careless and indiscreet in the handling of school funds, and that he now was willing to take his punishment* ' Judge Is Brief. Judge Worthington replied as fol­ lows: "I find it necessary to send him to the penitentiary as the law provides. It will be a severe punishment. In count No. 200 the sentence will be con­ finement in the pentitentiary at Jol- iet, 111;, for an indeterminate term, not less than one year or more than four­ teen years, solitary confinement. "In counts 21, 240, 243 and 244 the same sentence. That is all." 1 While the judge was speaking Dougherty looked straight ahead of him and did not move a muscle. He said nothing when the sentence was pronounced and was taken back to jail. The return of indictments against Dougherty early in October and his subsequent arrest caused a profound sensation in Peoria, where for nearly thirty years the banker-schoolmaster, one of the foremost educators of the country, had been regarded as hon­ est Falls From High Position. For over a quarter of a century he had been prominently identified with state and national educational organi­ zations, his prominence leading to his election in 1896 as president of the National Educational association. He had been president of the Illinois Teachers association and in 1901 served as Illinois commission^ at the Paris exposition.

Washington dispatch.--Herbert J. Hagerman of Roswell, N. M., has been appointed governor of New Mexico, to take effect on the expiration of Gov Otero's present term, Jan. 22, 1906. Cleveland, Ohio, dffepatch: Max S. Hayes, prominent in union labor cir­ cles and a delegate to the Pittsburg convention of the American Federation of Labor, has sent to the Cleveland* Leader a resume of the coal strike situation. Hayes is a close friend of President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America and has obtained from him the first definite statement the miners' leader has made regarding the plans of the coming battle with the coal operators. "Will there," Hayes asks, "be a great national strike and lockout in the coal-mining districts next spring, Involving upward of 500,000 and re­ sulting in the paralysis of the entire industry and the hastening of a busi­ ness crisis? "This question, which has been up­ permost in the minds of those who have watched industrial develpments during the last few months, was an­ swered partly by those who are regard­ ed as the spokesmen of' the miners, and it remains for the operators to supply the balance of the information necessary to clear the situation. Looks for Great Strike. "My personal opinion iB, after carefully considering the details inci­ dent to our trade, that there will be a national suspension in the mining, industry next spring. I don't see how it can be averted if the operators of the anthracite and Bituminous coal fields attempt to enforce their threats of reducing wages and ignoring our union." These words were spoken by Vice President Tom Lewis of the United Mine Workers of America in discuss­ ing the mining situation. Mr. Lewis added that the miners were making every preparation to meet the Issue and battle for the life of their organ­ ization and to maintain the wage scale they now have and better the same if possible. "President Mitchell was inclined to agree in the main with the prediction of his chief lieutenant. Depends on Operators. " 'If the mining operators insist upon a further reduction of wages for min­ ing coal it simply means fight,' he de­ clared with emphasis. 'Not only will our members not accept a cut in wages, but they will in all probability demand a restoration of the 5% per cent reduction agreed to In the bitu­ minous field' last year ,as well as a raise for the poorest paid men In and about the mines in the anthracite dis- trict.' 'We are now in a position where we can take the public into our confi­ dence,' said he. 'After the great strike of 1903 thousands of anthracite min­ ers, knowing that they had secured a three years' agreement, unfortunately left the union, feeling themselves se­ cure for the time being. This made the outlook discouraging, but my ef­ forts during the last few months, as­ sisted by a corps of organizers which has been utilized to. bring the • men Mbnks Are Killed. Vienna cablegram: Thirteen monks were killed during an earthquake at Mount Athos by the fall of rock, which crushed them. Several others, who were in a boat, were drowned by a sea wave caused by the earthquake/' back into the fold, have been success­ ful. At the end of this month 100,000 hard* coal miners will be paying dues into our national union. Will Demand Old Rate. " *We have done our share to keep the coal industry in working condi­ tion. Our miners are compelled to work just, as hard to mine coal at 85 cents a ton as when they received 90 cents and they not only refuse to ac­ cept a further redaction, but demand a restoration of the 5 cents clipped from every ton of cofil mined. " 'My belief is that at the January convention of the United Mine Work­ ers of America this question will be settled definitely on the lines indicated, namely: That our members will ac­ cept no further reduction and will stand for no advance and fight for it if necessary.' Miners Have $3,000,000. "According to Secretary W. B. Wil­ son if a strike is ordered in the bitu­ minous fields* either against a reduc­ tion or for an advance in wages, up­ wards of 300,000 men will respond to the call. The various districts have more than $3,000,000 in their treasur­ ies. The Illinois miners alone, who are raising the shotfiring law as an issue, have $1,000,000 to draw upoD for the support of their members while on strike. Ohio, Indiana, Michi­ gan, Iowa and several other districts farther south and west are solidly or­ ganized. The only dark spot, from the miners' viewpoint, are portions of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. In the former state there are about 30,- 000. But the miners' officials live in hope that the men in the unorganized subdistrlcts 'will make common cause with those organized laborers if a struggle is precipitated." CALL8 JAPANESE A DESERTER.

New York dispatch: Charging that her husband, a Japanese valet, had abandoned her and their four children, Mrs. Sassa appeared in court and de­ scribed how she had married the de­ fendant in Japanese form.

Uncoln, Mass., Nov. 27.--Eighteen flirsons were killed outright, burned to death, or suffocated; twenty-five were seriously injured, and a score of others cut and bruised when the Mont­ real express crashed into the rear end of a local train at Baker's Bridge sta­ tion, on the Fitchburg division of the, Boston and Maine Sunday evening. The local train left Boston at 7:15 o'clock with four cars filled with pas­ sengers bound for Concord, West Ac­ ton, Maynard, Hudson, Marlboro, and smaller towns in the Assabet valley. The Montreal express, comprising two locomotives, two milk cars, two bag­ gage cars, a mail car, three coaches, and a Pullman sleeper, started at 7:45 o'clock. The latter is a through train, and, after passing Waltham, ordinarily does not stop until it reaches Concord, two miles west of Baker's Bridge ac­ tion. Local Is Behind Time. Owing to heavy traffic the local was behind time when it reached Baker'* Bridge. The night was unusually dark, and a dense mist which came up the Sud­ bury river obscured the signals of the tiain in front. . The red fire torch had not been set more than a minute before the roar of a-heavy train around a curve a short distance east of the depot was heard. Within a few seconds the headlight of an ^nrushing locomotive showed through the mist, and before a hand could be lifted to warn the passengers in the waiting train the two ponder­ ous engines, traveling at a speed of thirty-five miles an hour crashed into it. The impact was terrific, and in­ stantly there was an indescribable scene of death and ruin. The leading locomotive telescoped the rear car of the Marlboro train, and the second engine forced this mass against the third car of the lo­ cal and completely wrecked it. In these two cars all but two of the fa­ talities occurred and practically all of the injuries. List of the Dead. The names of those who have been identified follow: William J. Harris,, and 81-year-old child, Maynard, Mass. > May Campbell, Maynard, Mass. Anna Hillbridge, aged 5 years, Ac­ ton, Masg, - Lyons/ --fireman on Montreal train. •:* '. Daniel Weatherbee, Acton, Mass. May Collins, Concord Junction. Nellie Sweeney, Concord. Maganao, , Concord.* Seven unidentified persona. The collision destroyed the forward locomotive of the Montreal train, and the engine following, although consid­ erably damaged, did not leave the rails. None of the cars of the ex­ press was thrown from the track, and the Impact apparently had little effect upon those in them. Passengers Are Incinerated. Fire added to the horrors, flames almost immediately communicating to the wreckage of the passenger coaches, and a number of passengers who had been pinned down by broken seats were incinerated. Some . of them, however, had evidently been killed instantly. The second car of the local train remained standing on the rails and was not greatly dam­ aged. There were thirteen corpses taken from the wreck, and three died Soon after being removed. Three of the bodies were headless. Two skulls w-^re found at 2 a. m., and twenty minutes later a man's head with a full beard was picked up. It is difficult to fix the exact number of those who perished, but it is thought it will not exceed eighteen. Passengers from both trains, rail- A A«Mn1/\iTA0 on/I o e%9 tHl. iviau VUipiV^VU) «* MMMAWV* V* * lagers rushed to the wrecked cars and assisted many persons to escape. The flames made it difficult to reach some who were alive, but who had been unable to free themselves from the mass. For the time it was nec­ essary to lay injured persons side by vside with the bodies of the dead, un­ til every effort possible had been made to rescue other victims. The working force was small, as Baker's Bridge is in a sparsely set­ tled district. Many of the uninjured women passengers became Impromptu nurses and all of the men joined in searching the debris for bodies. Football Girls Defeat Boya.
