Cincinnati, O., November 25. A
special to the Commercial Tribune
from Charleston, W. Va., says. ,
"It ia reported here, that a Chesa
peake and Ohio, railway train went
through the Greenbrier river bridge,
which had been damaged by the pre
vailing floods. It ia supposed that
there were about 200 people on the
train and that all were lost All wires
are down at and near the crossing of
this river, and it is impossible to set
any sort of confirmation of the dis
aster. Even the railway officials are
, unable to secure communication with
points on either aide of the river.'.' ;
PAEKKRSBURa, W. VA,, Nov. 26.
The passenger train reported wrecked
on the Chesapeake and Ohio, said to
have been ' west bound, consisted of
seven passenger coaches, baf ease, ex-
, press and mail can. i It. is Baid that
among the passengers were ex-Qov.

Richmond,' Va., Nov. 27. The
Chesapeake and Ohio officials here pos
itively deny the story of a passenger
tram wreck at Greenbrier river bridge,
and all atories of any loss of life on the
line4. .
The Dispatch had a special after
midnight from, Roncerverte, which is
within a few miles ,of every point at
which the Chesapeake and Ohiocrosses
the Greenbrier. The special reports a
freight wreck, with no loss pf life, at
Alleghany, and mentions delay . of
passenger trains in such a way as to
discredit entirely the passenger wreck
port At 1 A. ML, the Chesapeake
and Ohio was working direct to Hin
tori and reaffirmed their denial.
Cincinnati, p., Nov. 26. There
has been great" apprehension to night
over a report about a Chesapeake, and
Ohio train going through the
brier river bridge near Hintoo. W.
Va. All through wires on that line
are down and it is impossible to reach
Greenbrier river or any point near it
Messages have been sent to New York
and elsewhere, and that place cannot
be reached from either the east or the
west. Many messages have been sent
by those who have had friends on that
road to day. It was not known what
. train, if any, went through the bridge,
but no response to any messages have
been-reeeived, but they are accepted
subject to delay. Charles EL Bryan,
asssitant general passenger agent of
the C. &. 0., is here to night and he
discredits the story entirely. He said
there was a very bad landslide
neir one of the Greenbrier river
bridges not far from White Sulphur
Springs, and it has compelled them to
transfer - passengers during the day.
Owing to the higher water in the
river, no attempt to transfer passengers
was made to night and two trains that
left here to-day are being held over at
Anderson, west of White 8ulphur
Springs, and it is quite likely that
trains are being held on the other side
of White Sulphur Springs. There
are three bridges over the Green
brier river and the reports do
not indicate at which bridge the ac
cident occurred, so that it is quite
likely , that the reports were
started i because of the landslide
near White Sulphur Springs and the
fact that trains that were due both
east and west of that point were not
heard from on account of the wires
being down. The trains have been
arriving and departing in Cincinnati
on time, with the single exception of
the Eastern express, due this evening
at 6 o'clock, which did not arrive until
8 P. M., as it did not attempt the usual
fast time. It is said that the express
due here at 8 o'clock to morrow morn
ing is still on the other side of Green
brier river.
Washington, ' November 26. The
. Post has received a message from the
railroad telegrapher at Hinton. saying
that there is no foundation for the
story of a wreck on the Chesapeake
and Ohio near that place.

50 and 51 cents he unloaded 200.000
bushels, his total sales for the day
being 240,000 bushels. As he is sell

transactions netted him a profit better

inse to mane public at this time. The
letter, which is - illegibly signed, is as
follows: . , i
"Sir Having almost thoroughly as
sured myself of an Anarchist plot
against His Excellency, McKinley, 1
consider it my duty to advise you of

"My statement can be verified on

By Telegraph to the Morning star. ; " '
New Yobk, November 27. A gath
ering of business men resulted from
the call for a conference at the Cham

of the meeting were the practical , re
tirement of Bishop Potter from the

dress by Abram 8V Hewitt in which
he said that the responsibility for the

the unanimous adoption of the follow

"The limit of public abuse has been
reached. Some of the men on the

our sympathy, but more to our com

they will strike a fatal blow at Tam

never have been appointed. 'The re

with the mayor." , -
Mr. Hewett told how he treated im
morality when he was mayor.
"I sent for Chief of Police Murray,"
he said, "and told him that if he could
not close up evil resorts to at least
cover them up. I told him the places
must be closed. I asked Chief Murray
if he were a rich man. He said he was
worth $300,000, and never bad any
business but that of policeman. I
asked him where he got it He said
he had friends in Wall street who
gave him opportunities.
' I had the president of the police

about the corruption. He told me to
let it alone I'd only stir up a hornet's

told me the truth about that

Bishop Potter, said:
"I know of men and women on the

Washington, Nov. 27. The cabinet
meeting to day was occupied mainly
with a discussion of Chinese affairs,
and the . reading: of portions of the
President's forthcoming: message to
Congress The result of the discus
sion r.f te last phases of the Chinese
problem va a thorough approval of
every pi-iui of the policy of Secretary
Hay, and espwially of the last instruc
tions to Mr. Conger, which were for
warded just a week ago.
While Mr. Conger has fall plenipo
tentiary powers, and consequently by
his acta at Pekin. can finally commit
the government, of the United States
to an agreement, it is understood by
the officials here that ao far he has
not signed any protocol or preliminary
treaty. Bo, regardless of Mr. Conger's
disposition toward the agreement
reached by the ministerial council, the
government of the United States still
stands uncommitted, and therefore,
is in a position to endeavor to bring
about changes in the arrangement as
are deemed indispensable.
Mr. White, our ambassador at Ber
lin, has not yet communicated to the
State Bepartment the reception ac
corded by the Qerman government to
the copy of the instructions supplied
"by our State Department to Minister
Conger. It is stated that these instruc
tions not being in the form of a direct
address; would not necessarily call for
a formal response. -
Private advices received here indi
cate that the suggestions of this gov
ernment, as embodied in the instruc
tions to Minister . Conger, meet with
general favor abroad. -The
New Army Bill.
The House Committee on Military
Affairs to-day met for the purpose of
considering the new army bill. The
business was mostly of a preliminary
character, the discussion being quite
general on army affairs. ' The Repub
lican members of the committee ap
parently are in favor of giving the
President such an army as he may re
quire.' The draft of a bill already pre
pared .by Chairman Hull will be the
basis of the measure which the com
mittee will consider. This bill pro
vides for an army of the maximum
strength of 100,000 men, with a mini
mum of 50,000 and general officers at
the rate of one brigadier general for
each 4,000 men, with major generals
in proportion. Chairman Hull states
that there will be but one bill prepared
and if any staff changes are contem
plated, they will be incorporated in
that measure.
