jumping.
Seaboard Air Lino passenger trnin
No. 2, northbound from Jacksonville
to Washington, jumped the track half
u mile from Dixiana^ Lexington coun-1
ty, at 5:30 o'clock yesterday after- j
noon, lesulting in the death of Engi.1
neer John W. Preacher of Savannah!
and injuries to Dave Stephens, negro (
fireman, and Mrs. J. S. McDaniel of;
Jacksonville, a passenger. Neither
of the last named are thought to be
seriously hurt. .T. H. Walters of Hamlet,
a passenger, was scalded about the
feet while helping get the engineer
cut of the wreck.
The engine turned over, burying itself
halfway in the ground; the tender
was thrown crosswise of the road-.
bed; the mail car, fir9t behind the
tender, shot off to the left, hitting a
ban, and the express car, which was!
next, dhshed to the right, ramming1
the rear end of the half buried engine.'
A combination car, baggage and negro
day ccach, was partly derailed
The track was demolished for about
three car lengths, the rails being bent j
also into a horseshoe. The train was
of eight cars. The remaining live,
held firmly to the rails.
Early this morning the wreck had,
not been cleared, but a wrecking train j
was on the way from Savannah, according
to H. L. Lewis, night yard-'
master at Cayce. Mr. l^wis said bethought
the wreck would be cleared
by 7 o'clock this morning or a little
luter.
Striking shopmen of the Seaboard
refused to assist in clearing the1
wreck, Mr. Lewis said last night. The!
strikers offered their assistance ii
lives were at stake or if the dead were
train from Columbia, while the
through passengers on the Pullmans
were moved back to Denmark and
brought in over the Southern tracks.
The five cars were moved shortly after
1 o'ciwrk this morning, Mr. Lnwis
said.
The Seaboard's southbound passenger
train due here shortly after midnight
was transferred over the Southern
to Denmark and then back on the
Seaboard tracks, officii)Is announced.
Sand on the track at a point where
the Charleston highway crosses the
railroad caused the accident, according
to opinion expressed by many persons.
The railroad approaches the
dirt road on a curve and the highway
likewise crosses the railroad on an
acute bend. The constant traffic of
automobiles across the railroad track
is thought to have been the cause of
the accumulation of sand, and the
curve on which the train struck is be-j
lieved to have accentuated the trouble.
The increased automobile traffic on
Sundry and the decreased train traffic,
it. is thought, would combine to
make the sand heavier on a Sunday
fifternoon than at any other time during
the week.
Some of those discussing the wreck
last night suggested the possibility
that some undiscovered defect in
equipm nt might have caused the derailment.
The railroad commission
will endeavor in its investigaton to
ascertan the cause or causes.
Marks on crossties showed that a
truck, thought to be of the engine
rather than the tender, left the rails
just as the train passed over the dirt
road. The trail of the truck could be
followed to where the engine and cars
left the track.
"It looks as if the engine truck was
derailed at the road crossing, about
'2(W yards from the scene of the
smash, and ran on the ties until the
truck was demolished and this derailed
the engine," said II. H. Thomas,
yard wester, when ^sked about the
wreck.
J. I). I.ane, veteran conductor, who
was in charge of the train, said that
the speed was probably 40 miles an
hour. He, too, though:, that the trouble
was caused by a truck derailing at the
crossing. The train carried about 75
passengers, he said, and was running
on time. Mr. Lane was in the com-1
bination car. which was partly de-|
railed, but sutieied no niiUi.es.
Dixiana is al>out nine miles from'
Columbia and automobiles began to go
to the scene as soon as the news became
known. Until a late hour last;
night there was a constant stream of
traffic. This added another casualty
to the list. Willie Wiggins, a negro
living on Lady street, was knocked
down by an automobile while he was
on his way to church near Dixiana. I
He was carried to the Good Samaritan'
hospital by persons occupying the machine
which struck him, but they did

DEATH CLAIMS
NOTED PUBLISHED
London, Aug, 14.?ViBaoupt North
cliffe, noted British publisher, died a
10:12 o'olpek this morning. 'Hi
end was perfectly peaceful, his doe
tors said.
Viscount Northdiffe, bom ii
Chipclizod, Ireland, July 15, 1805, th
son of an Irish barrister, became ai
editor at 17 years, owner and publish
er of the London Times and Dailj
Mail, the moulder of public opinion
a man of powerful influence in th'
making and unmaking of British cab
inets and, who with David Lloyi
George, contributed in a great me is
ure to arousing England to more vig
orous action in the war.
He was created Baron of the Isl<
of Thanet in 1905 and made a Vis
count in 1917 after he had servei
with distinction as head of the Britisl
Mission to the United States to con
solidate British interests here during
the war.
Through his newspapers and peri
odicals. Lord Northcliffe had demand
cd a more vigorous prosecution of th
war. He attacked the governmen
for its failure in the Gallipoli cam
paign and in Mespotamia. He de
manaea tnat conscription be put int<
effect. Next he turned his journalis
tic guns upon Premier H. H. Asquith
dencunced the General War commit
tee as a "town meeting" and de
manded a compact war cabinet. Hi
supported Lloyd George in a domnn'
for a small and efficient cabinet o
which Asquith should not be a mem
ber. Mr. Asquith resigned and Lloy<
George succeeded him.
In no country, it has been asserted
did a man in civil life so constantl.
as Lord Northcliffe occupy the publi
eye, or labor so consistently for hi
country and its allies and to brinj
confusion and defeat upon the Ger
mans. Of the attitude of the Britisl
indifferent to him.*'
not leave their names. He is no
thought to be seriously hurt.
Dave Stephens, the fireman, see
at the Good Samaritan hospital las
night, said that he was coaling who
he suddenly felt joking and jarring
He realized something was wrong am
looking over at the engineer, saw Mi
Preacher reaching for his throttle o
emergency brake. Stephens the
jumped to the left and landed jus
as the engine turned over on its rigli
side. He fell on his knees and rolle
over a time or two. The next thin
he remembered was some one pickin
him up. He had not looked at hi
vatch since the train left Savanna
but was of the opinion that No.
was running about on time. His onl
pain last night was in the right sih?
but he was considerably jarred by th
jump.
J. II. Walters of Hamlet, N. C., wh
was scalded when he attempted to re:
cue Engineer Preacher, said last nigl:
at the Baptist hospital that he ran t
the engine as soon as the train sfop
ped, realizing that the wreck was sevi
ous. He said he looked out of th
vestibule cf the day coach in whic
he was riding and saw the engine i
the ditch. He was scalded when h
stepped in a pool of hot water an
by escaping steam from the engine
Mr. Walters made a close inspectio
of the engineer's cab in an effort t
locale ivir. rreacner. ivrr. waiters w:i
brought to Columbia on the secon
relief train several hours after th
wreck. His feet ?"<i legs are scaldo
u little above his ankles. Mr. Walter
was on his way from Savannah t

injured in the wreck, was placed i
the Baptist hospital for treatmen

was brought to Columbia shortly al
terwards. His death was duo to scald

A passenger who was among th
first to reach the overturned Income
tive said that Mr. Preacher, in hi
opinion, had ample time to jump ha
he desired to do so, but from th
position in which ho was found h
had evidently stuck to the last, tryin
to save the train from being wreokei

Wednesday. Mr. Lewis replied, "Your
vitalion commendable and augurs|
well for the success of the confer1

he outcome of the soft coal confer- (
^ once here saying he expected an end
' by tomorrow evening. Some operator.-;
forecast the opening of the mine?
j Wednesday.
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 13 t Uy tin-'
Associated Press).?President -John L.
Lewis of the United Mine Workers.1
' l? dared here tonight that "impottant
developments" occurred today in the
' anthracite coal strike, and predicted a
1 conference would be held with operators
"in a few days" to reopen wage,
? iiogot-iatiens.
Mr. Lewis refused to el;.leu ale his1
statement as to "important developments"
but it was learned that he had
h en in long distance e> e.enu.ication
today with anthraeit opera1.ovs in
Philadelphia.
"Important developments with re-'
0 spect to the anthracite strike" said
" Mr. Lewis," were taking place today,
' and I feel that a joint conl'ci mce of
" the operators and United Mine Work-'
" ers will be arranged, and actually
B take* place in a few days."
' Port settlement of the soft coal
* strike within 48 hours was said by
" ?ir. Lewis to be probable, and YV. A.I
' llaskins, secretary of the Northern
Ohio Operators' association, co lcurred
l> in this opinion, predicting that some
)' m-nes w uld resume productio i Wed-'
c resday.
3 No progress, however, had been
? made toward settling the one disputed
- point of compulsory arbitration be-'
h tween JYIr. Lawis and Michael Gnl1
lagher, heading the operators, the two
1 njfcn having been empowered to agree
" ...t 'ji h p... . to Inf presented to.ndrrow'
to the joint subscale committee <?f'
" miners and operators. Mr. Gallagher's'
t position favoring compulsory arbitration
for future settlements in the soft
a coal industry was understood, as also
t Mr. Lewis' opposite position. A final
l e inform* , between the two had been
f. arranged for tomorrow, preliminary,
I, io the meeting of the joint subscale
r. committee.
r "I am optimistic that it may be- pos-'
a hie," declared Mr. Lawis, "to reach
t an agre; r.icnt in the next 48 hours. I
1 am hopeful that the conference tomord
row will develop something dc.'i.iitc
4; along i hi line. Developments of tin.
g last 12 hours have been gratifying and
portend an end to the strike that is
h now entering its 20th week."
2 The nature of the developments in
v the soft coal situation were withheld
by Mr. Lewis, but his conference that
e had been scheduled today with Mr.
Gallagher was postp >ned until tomor-'
