durinc the seven davs' cnnpai.ru in Austria

on that day in l; 1 when the KninTir and his
laurel-crow n.il - .Idiers re-entered the Hraii'l- :
enburiT pat's, at Berlin, with Bisniark and
Mohke at his side, the monarch publicly
showed his appreciation "f his chief n: start".
With the suui of money equal to half a nullum

d. bt pai 1 by Frunze, he U.uu'ht the estate of

The intrinsic nobility and lofty unselrish- t

was the only wrreat man "who knew how to

had not ijrow n to le a doughty man of war he ,

MR. BLAIR REJECTED.
China Does not Consider Him
'Pe rsona
tirHtft" ms rt Minister.
The Chinese Government has notified the
Government of the I'niteil States, through the
I icpart incut of State, of its unwillingness to
receive Hon. Henry M. Blair as our minister
T'I hill!) .
This js all the information that could be
' laiii'sl at Washington. Secretary Blaine
w oild let talk upon tin- subject, and the
i hiiicse Minister sent down word to callers
that be had retired and hi. interpreter was
not in the house. Mr. Blair's son expressed
surprise when informed of the action of the
Chinese Government. It was, he said, the
first that anv of the family had heard of it.
His father he felt sure, was not aware of the
sit nation.
It is well underst'Mid here that the objection
to Mr. Blair is based upon his utterances con
cerning the Chinese question, and that the re
publication of extracts from his speeches pro
duced a-deep impression upon The minds of
prominent Chinese officials, w hich finally re
sulted in the notification received by the Iie
partment of State this evening.
The objection of the Chinese Government
to Mr. Blair caused no excitement in XA'ash
inglon, as this Government recognizes the
right of a foreign power to express its un
w illingness to receive a minister who i not
entirely acceptable.

pi f.-.s as M'ltiiin a sh'irt
saw the treiglit tram on his traek us soon ns
iie rounded the curve, and ut once reversed
his engine an 1 applied the air brake. The
; momentum of the train was too great to be
-.-hecked in such a short distance, and n
! moment later his train crashed into the freight
I without its sp.-'-d being perceptibly cheeked,
i At the place ot'eolli.-ion there was a smaller
curve, which prevented the two engines from
meeting squarely, and the blow was a .side one.
As the enginescame together the crash could
have been heard a long distance. The passen
ger engine reeled to the right and fell on the
i -ide ot the track, while the freight engine was
j thrown over on the left side. Following the
the shock the baggage and postal oars lett the
: track, and a ncno'iit latter the two cars were
1 in flames, having caught lire I'roni the engines,
I and not long afterward were completely- de
1 stroyed, as were aK two treight cars, one
loaded with hay and th other w ith lime.

I express ordered a wrecking crew from Rock
j ville, and began to clear the track, while an
i extra engine was attached to the passenger
' "nadies and all of the passengers were sent
back to Washington an I thence West via the
Main J.inc.
The work of ex r ricaiing the wounded was
! made difficult by the heat from the burning
, cars. TircMiau Miller was found lying
I against an embankment alongside the traek,
; badly cut and burnt on the head and with
several bones brok n. He was taken to the
Providence Hospital in Washington. Postal
Clerk Peacock was discovered beneath the
broken timbers ot' the postal ear, and was
rescued ju-t in time to prevent hia being burnt
, to death. Ills head was severely cut and ue
was injured internally. Kngineer Grott' was
found serious! y hu. ; near his engine. Postal
, Clerk Burd.-ne was also pulled out of the de
bris ot' the postal car. He had probably been
killed instantly. i ll" bodies of Kngineman
Klliott and Fireman Murphy were buried
beneath the wreck, so that they could not be
' -ecu, and for a long time the heat from the fire
j made search for them impossi ble. Only two
; mail bags and three or four pieces of baggage
I were saved, while ne arly all the express mat
ter, including two safes containing money, are
! said to have ij.-.-n lost. The heat was so in
i tense thai tin- iron axles of the cars and the
iron of the en gi lies glowed white hot. and with
