Dr. Hay , a Illocton physician , who at tended Gardner , one of the Injured survivors , telegraphs tonight the statement made li > Gardner as to the cause of the wreck. Gardner says when ho felt the cars leave the track he looked out and saw three savage looking men rushing from a hiding place down toward the water's edge , ami that after the wreek they went through the wreckage , robbing this dead and wounded , and then lied to the woods. They did their work < mlckly. and offered no assistance whatever In the way of rescuing the Im prisoned and Injured passengers. This story , however , has liot yet been corrobo rated , but other fuels tend to show that It was the work of train wrcrkcrs. An examination of the engine- shows that KiiKliipvr White had shut off steam ami re versed before the engine went down , Indi cating that he saw danger ahead as he np- proaehed thu bridge anil tried to stop his train. His charted bojy was found , with his hand on the throttle. Tint survivors all agree that the train left the track and bumped along the ties , nnd then , with a erash. plunged through the bridge , n.xpcrt engineers say that there Is every Indication that n rail was removed , which derailed the train and caused It to pull down the bridge. The cross ties show marks of the wheels. To add to this. Is the faet that three men tried to wreek a Southern railway train near Henryellen. fifteen miles east of hero , live days ago , by removing a rail on n trestle ninety feet high. The fast express left the track , but the engineer managed by superhuman efforts to stop It before It toro down the trestle. This was regarded cs n most remarkable escape. In this case three men were seen running from the place and a crowbar , with which the spikes had IK en withdrawn. wai : found.

OMAHA , Dee. 28. To the Editor of The Dee : Just nt this tlmo some agitation of the prison labor problem Is stewing In cor- t.iln quarters. It Is claimed that Governor llolcomb favors the abolition of Urn contract ny tcm , nml It Is probable that porno members of the legislature have a notion of auch a system of prison regulation that all the con victs will ho holy and only the guai-Js bo vile. It appears to mo that this matter hhouhl ho determined In the Interest of throe concerned , and who have rights In the premised the taxpayers , and thla Include ) all our people outside the criminal plaaaea whether wagoworkcrn , financiers , manufac turer or farmers. The crltnln.il lita no rights which society Is bound to respect , nay , none which society nhould respect In opposition to Ita own Interests , safety or con venience , whether dealing with depravity wo regard crime as a disease , an Insanity or a vice. The strong arm of the law Hhould protect the Inwabldlng citizen at whatever cost to the criminal , and .this mewling men tal dotage , miscalled sympathy , that looks with pitying eye on the murderer taken red-handed In hU crime , la both trying and dangerous. Our prKsuna hold men dan gerous to society , natures dwarfed by oln Into the horrible monstrosity of crime. They aie not refuged for unfortunates In life ; they are bulwarks for the protection of the thrifty , the pure , the gentle , the gooJ. Men arc sent there for punishment , and the regime Hhould do sufllclenily severs to make n return of the prisoner when hlj term ex pires , undesirable a thing to ho avoided , even nt the.cci.-it of remaining honest. Shorn of the halo that too often surroundj him , the criminal utamla confessed as ono who han ruthlessly tvikcn ftom others their property , their virtue , or their life , who has volunta rily put himself beyond the protection of the laws , and ewcet charity has too many needy gardens In which to plant IU beautiful llow- ers without condemning It to the blistering atmosphere of cuiulctcd vice. What shall wo do with our convicts , not In the Interest of the convicts , but of so ciety ? H Is everywhere admitted , nt all events by all people who may visit an In sane asylum with safety , that the state should hold Its prisoners nt the least cost to the public. Taxpayers ore too heavily burdened in the llrst costs of convicting criminals. At the very end of this year of grace. ISOfl , it took four able laywers. a learned Judge and twelve good men and true , not to mention court bailiffs , stenog raphers , etc. , ten days to convict a man who himself admitted that ho had brutally murdered his roommate and then robbed him , and who gave this precious assassin a Christmas present of a life sentence In the penitentiary , whither ho goes In the hope that some soft-hearted governor In the future will make him another Christmas present of a pardon. Meanwhile the worms are having n Christmas feasfon the body of his victim , erstwhile his friend and bene factor , whom his murderous hand Hem to ( hlH ) account , \\lth all ( his ) Imperfections on ( his ) head. And the taxpayers of Douglas county will foot the bill to the tune of thousands of dollars. Thcro Is no mistake about that. Juries may disagree , astute attorneys may quibble him out , the law's delay may release him , governors may pardon him , and n thousand and ono things may Intervene and the criminal go unwhlpped of Justice , hut thcro Is no escape for the taxpayer. Thrift must pay the penalty of Its virtue , that we may open every avenue of escape for society's assassins. Hut now nnd then wo do get him In the penitentiary , nnd then what shall wo do with him ? "Uefonn him , " shrieks the theorl.it. who often lacks but courage nnd opportunity to become a criminal himself , and so a "fellow feeling makes him wondrous kind. " "Pun ish him. " sajs common sense and If there I * anything In him worth reformlnc It will eomo out In the wash. It Is due the public that he be made self-sustaining. If practica ble. That his labor should come Into com petition aa llulo ns posslbln with hone. , ' . tc-11 oiitsldu goes without saying. It Is but fair that the burden of his keep. If burden It must be , should bo equally distributed amons all our citizens. He should not bo permitted to do In confinement what he did when at large , prey upon society. Hut lie muht bo engaged In some line of proHta'jlo labor , and there Is no legitimate senKnuiit In the matter. Which Is most prorttable to the atate , the contract system or direct em ployment ? This belne nnswered. the qu--s- tlon should bo settled. It Is urged In name iiunrtera that our convicts could bo profitably employed In the manufacture of clothlriz. shoes , etc. . for our state InstlluWoim nnd still not eomo Into competition with honest labor. I trust the people outslrto our state will no ! conclude from this argument of the screcchsrs that Nebraska's feeble mlmled. in - > m < paupers , etc. . In our public Institutions are permitted to go shoeless nor compelled to Hvo In a state of nature , nor to sleep on : ho S'aro iround uncovered. If such were tha case there would be meat In the ar u- ment , and the plan be both sensible and uimano. Where do the shoes , clothing. jcddlng , etc. , and the houses our unfor- : unatca live In come from ? With a bound- les belief In the wonderful productiveness of the soil of our beautiful state1 1 am still .mwllllng to believe that houses grow up rom our prairies nuc/lded. Nor la It prob- aMe that In the morning after a shower the attendants may go 10 the rain barrel nnd Ind there the needed stockings , ccats and all other wearing apparel , cut just to size and beautifully made up for each Inmate. I ) ellcvo in Divine Providence , but In the alucuro of evldenco to the contrary Iin - cllno to the opinion that all these thlnga are made by busy human hands. Where. hen , would be the advantage , so far as loncst labor Is concerned. In employing our convicts on state work ? Tue result would > o the same , with all the risk of loss to the stato. All these things tned : by the com- nonwealth in caring for its unfortunates , f manufactured oulslda the prison , give cm- iloymont to labor nnd If we make thorn by ) rlson labor wo deprive the worklngmcn and women who now manufacture them of ust that much employment.Vu somewhat hango the conditions , but not the result. < "Learn the convict a trade , that when ho comes out lie may have a chanco. " I Hie ho proposition still less , but granting Its itlllty how arc you going to do It. unlcsu you employ him ? It Is urged that by return- tig to primitive methods this might be one In such a way that his product would be so small that It would have little or no ( feet on outride labor. In the llrat place such n plan would bo unprofitable to the state , ami tl.nl Is quite enough to ilci'cat It. Hut from the hyttt-rlc.il view of "giving him a chance , " lin- much chance -Amild he have ? The stutc pays annually a large mm for publlo printing. Suppose the rute deoldtd to do this printing In the penlton- tlary. Let It buy Us type. etc. . In the old way. and not so W < ] , cither , and teach the murderers , the ravl'hcrc. the hotwchreakcrt , the pickpocket ? , the villains of every do- reriptlon confined there to wt typo and plill a Washington hand prcsi. It would have the effect of depriving honest printers ontbliliof that much employment they now receive. ; but m.vcr mind , we will give society's enemies a chanco. At the end of his term the convict KOCH Into the world prepared to print. Ho goes Into the- first priming otllce ho pecs , and l > unable to recognise It. The typesetting machine looks about 113 much like n printer's cnie ai a bothe does like n McCormlck elf binder. There are hundreds of llrst r.iFn ! prlntem. who flvo years and ICM ago , were earning iood ; wage * , who art * In other line * of labor became the machine has driven them out of the line they have npont a lifetime in per fecting. Tim convict Ii as bad off at > before nil the printers worse , for the labor they hnve lout , lint , suppose he Ii taught a useful tr.-iJi-i Li that fair to the outside inrvlianlci ? The ox-convict comes Into com petition with him now with a vengeance lie Ivas the alternative of taking thU re leased Jail bird , with his foul prison morality , Into the union or risking chance * of his scabbing him out of his job , and the more thoroughly the convict has learned his trade the greater the datmer. The felon can work cheaper than an hone.it man , for what he don't earn by day he steals by night. In any c.ino honest labor loses by the transaction as well as the state nt largo. Wo hove had some trifling experience Nebraska In the matter of purchasing peni tentiary tools nnd the result was not happy , though less disastrous than might have been expected. We purchased some asthmatic en gines , a few well worn flies nnd sundry other tools and things nt a cost of about $3r.MO , II my memory serves me. It Is reasonably cer tain the seller received their value. 01 course we Inspected thorn. If n btulnesa man or a farmer should buy a pluco of ma chinery he would consult aome ore familiar with thai machine- give him Information about It. Hut In hU superior wisdom the governor appointed toInspect steam en- rlnes and mcchatilrs' tools a farmer , and , trailing the same line of policy , If we turned our prison Into an Immense farm would doubtless appoint n mechanic to su perintend the croi growing. This Is not so much the fault of the governor as of the system. The Idea that n public olllclal , hrcauso he 'Is ' a nuccessful politician , may therefore successfully manage a business about which he Icnuurf nothing , or a series of diversified businesses , la th ? false founda tion on which the whole fabric of the plan of dlrc-et employment rests. If the peonlo could bo absolutely sure that every olllclal to be connected with the prison In future would bo absolutely Incorruptible , still the plan has 'In It. the Inherent weakness of Im practicability. Prom tha constant changes in administration , even If wo did find one that know It all , how would wo bo able to know of the future ? In any event , what Ii Iho slate to gain from embarlilng iiiun the uncertain sea of speculative manufactur ing ? M H appears clear to mo that the only safe and businesslike policy for the state Is to get the greatest per diem cut of each Indi vidual convict. The contractor thus takc.3 all the chances of business conditions , and he Is pretty sure to bo a man who knows more about the businers than any state olllccr we could elect , and since ho under stands how to get the money out of It , can pay the state more than It could rerllzo In any other way. A reasonable nuir acr of hours could be agreed iipon , and certain lines of manufacture which Interfered with Nebraska enterprise be tabooed. If favorit ism among the prisoners vrcrc then shown It would bo at the expense of the contractor or the Individual , It certainly would not comu out of the pockets of the taxpayers of the state. That the product of his labor will to some extent go Into competition with that of the honest toiler Is unfortunate , but I have seen no plan advanced as yet to prevent that. It may be reduced to a minimum , so far as Nebraska worklngmcn are concerned nt least , and under the con tract system better than any other. Prison product Is notoi-lously Inferior to frco labor's output , ami this will continue to have Its commercial bearing. * * * Prom any point of view the problem Is vexatious and unsatisfactory. It Is an out rage that honest worklngmen must conic Into the market against the labor of felons , but it Is very much bettor so than that they should bo compelled to associate with the felon himself , and no solution has yet been reached or suggested by which this competition may bo avoided entirely. One way might be to make the name of the prison a terror evil-doers by the severity of Its rule ? , thus keeping the number of prisoners to the minimum , and then If jiiiles would send convicted murderers to the gallows Instead of to the penitentiary to continue to be a post that would also help.

When on hla recent trip to the south Victor Roscwater saw the steamer Three Krlends , which has acquired so much no toriety through Its filibustering trips to Cuba. "I was ou board the vessel whllo It lay at the dock at Jacksonville. " Bald Mr. Rose- water. "It was at that time laying up under going repairs on ono of Its boilers. It Is a small screw steamer , and In appearance looks like an ordinary tug boat. H resem bles the ships of the United States navy In one respect the hull Is painted white. "Tho Three Krlends had been suspected of being engaged In the business of carrying arms , munitions of war and men to Cuba to aid the cause of the Insurgents on that Island , and nt that tlmo thcro were three revenue cutters lying In the harbor watching the diminutive craft to prevent the loadIng - Ing of any of the contraband articles or Its clearing port If they were loaded. The revenue cutters were finally ordered to some other point to watch some of the numerous craft which arc engaged In the same busi ness , and they were linrdly out of sight of Jacksonville before the news was tclc- srnphcd out over the country that the Three [ 'rlend.s had started on another expedition. This was the trip which has caused so much Fuss , and during which It was reported nt one time that the boat had had an armed encounter with a Spanish war vessel. "The captain of the Three Krlends Is named Lewlu. He Is a young man , not over "C or 27 years cf ago. He Is of medium height , slender , and I'.us a small , brown moustache. The vessel Is owned principally by the sheriff of Duval county , Florida , In which the city of Jacksonville Is locate'i. Everybody In that section sympathizes with the Cubans In their struggle and aid them In every way possible , making It easy for the vessels engaged In the filibustering business - iness to get cargoes aboard and get away without trouble. "In addition to their sympathy the pcoplo engaged In this business manage to mnko a neat little sum out of carrying arms , am munition and men to Cuba. It Is currently reported that for every cargo landed on the Island the owners of the vessel receive n bonus of $5,000.
