Ati.antic Citv, N J., Aug. 3.—There Is now little question that the respon sibility for the collision near here Thursday night, in which forty-four excursionists were killed and forty three others injured, rests U|K>n the deud engineer, hid ward Farr. There is no dispute that tha signal to come ahead was given to the West Jersey excursion train, and if so, the danger signal must necessarily have been given to the Reading track bv an automatic arrangement. The signals then become locked and can not be released until both traius have cleared the point. Before the signals are manipulated the red signal is con stantly displayed to both tracks, indi cating to all engineers that they must slow up on approaching the crossing. There is strong evidence that Farr did not slow up and could not do so In time when he saw the West train ap proaching. It is said that he had been laid off for two weeks not long ago for not making good time, and it is supposed that he was trying to make m for this by running at a high rate of speed. STRIKE RENEWED.

The Prohibition Candidate. BlV timoiik, Md., July 3o.—Joshua Levering of this city was last evening officially notified of his nomination for the Presidency of the United Btates by the Prohibition party. Prior to the notification, tile Maryland Pro hibitionists held their state conven tion and nominated electors in the various Maryland districts. They also paraded the streets of the city with banners and music, the line of march terminal ing at the Lyceum theater, where the notification meeting was held.' O. W (Stewart of Illinois, as chair man of the committee on notification, delivered the address informing Lev ering of his nomination. The latter read from manuscript his letter of ac ceptance, which is, in part, as follows: "Much an honor is worthy the am bition of any citizen of this great na tion, but to my mind it is to be doubly appreciated when tendered by the only political party which has had the eourage to stand openly for the pro tection of the home, the womanhood and the children of our country agalnat the terrible ravages and de struction of the legalized liquor traffic. The Prohibition party, conscloua of the Integrity of its motives and pur poses, and firm In its belief that the question of a moral character should take precedence over those purely economics!, has stood firm for a score or more of years against all attnexs of ridicule, misrepresentation and abuse made agulust it; increasing its numbers and gaining the esteem and Confidence of those who are not yet willing to be enrolled under the ban ner of 'Protection to the Home.’ “During nil the years it has steadily pursued its way in educating tlie'peo ple to the constantly increasing en croachment of the liquor trufHc, knowing how it is undermining our fiolitical and social life and interfer ng with the free expression of the will of the people it the ballot box, controlling to a large extent the legis lative bodies of the country, adding heavily to the burdens of the already overburdened taxpayers, and, above all, bringing suffering, sorrow, pov erty and death to many of our fellow citizens. "The platform adopted by the con vention meets my hearty approval, and, though based on the single issue, Is, in reality, sufficiently broad to allow all to stand on it who are op posed to the saloon and its consequent evils, regardless of their views on any public questions of the day. ‘I do not underestimate the fact that there are other questions of f'rave importance over which the pub ic mind is seriously agitated, and which are being pressed for speedy settlement. There Is the question of a stable and at the same time elastic eurrency, equal to the demands of business for every section of the coun try, and yet every dollar of which should be of equal value and the whole based on a standard equal to the best interest in the world. The United Status cannot afford, without dishonor, to have money bearing its stamp in ferior to that of any other country on the globe. “Again, a proper adjustment of the tariff' so that labor can have Us iust protection withoi'i at the same time ?'iving undue pro’eclion to the m-inu acturing interest at the expense of the great consuming portion of our people, is of profound importance and demands early solution.” Prior to the notification meeting, Mr. Levering, in an interview, said: “I do not see any necessity for the sound money Democrats who do not wish to vote for McKinley to nominate a third ticket Let them vote the Prohibition ticket. We shall have electoral tickets in every state and those Democrats and others who can not conscientiously vote for either Bryan or McKinley can vote for our ticket. My views on the money ques tion and on Die tariff question are also in accord with the views of these peo ple in general and are decidedly definite. ” TURKEY PROTESTS.

Gibbs, national Republican commit teeman from this state, was one of tiie few favored guests at a meeting of the Kastern managers with Na tional Ih&trman Hanna to-day. Whether Mr, Hanna looked upon Mr. Gibba as a personal representative of Mr. Platt or not, the fact Is patent that Mr. Gibbs does represent that taction of the Republican party ia New York. Mr. Hanna said: “Mr. Platt was not invited to the meeting simply because he la not a member of the committee Mr. Gibbs, the New York state national commitlecmun, was invited by me to attend so that tie rnay be kept in touch with the plsns that may be formulated Mr. Gibbs is New York's national commit teeman, and is responsible in a large measure, by virtue of bis position, for the result in this state, j feel confi dent that the Republican party In New York state will work harmoni ously for Mr. McKinley’s election " John Wanatnaker of Philadelphia, ex-President Harrison and Mr. ilanna met at the Fifth Avenue hotel last night. Mr. Hanna declined to go in to details as to the questions discussed bv the trio, but said: “Mr. Harrison will give us all tne assistance we may require of him. ” The most Important question to be discussed will be us to the lines upon which the campaign will be con ducted. Frank 8. Withcrbee and a delegation representing the American Protective League will argue in favor of making the fight upon the tariff 1 in... ..,1.11.. U.I.III. ll’ l>, ...II. others of the financial and corpora tion world wilt ask that the tinsneial question be kept uppermost. It is en tirely probable that Mr. Hanna’s ad vice to the committee will be for working on both these platforms aa closely bound to each other. Mr. Hanna said to-uay: “The financial J and tariff questions cannot, in my ^ judgment, be divorced. Our financial depression or prosperity is duo in the greatest measure to our tariff condi tion*. Mr. McKinley Shares this view with me ” In carrying out this view Mr Hanna will suggest that ttie Tan If league prosecute the tight vigorously on its own lines, and that those interested in the financial question do similar work, the national committee giving assistance. It is planned that an im mense amount of literature will be distributed. Mr. Quay was in consultation with Mr. Hanna for about an hour, but neither would say what the especial subject of their consultation was. The nominee for vice president, Garrett A. Hobart, arrived subse quently and was closeted with Mr. Hanna for some time. At the con clusion of the interview Mr Hobart said: "I have told Mr. llanna that 1 intend staying In New Jersey during the campaign, frequently coming over to New York headquarters. I had plenty of experience in campaign work a* a national committeemail and Mr. Hanna thinks I can assist in New York headquarters.” IOWA PATENT OFFICE REPORT. I)KS MoINBS.
