PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Federal authorities said they are uncertain if anything struck the windshield of an Amtrak train before it derailed in Philadelphia last week, but they say it was not a gunshot that created a grapefruit-sized crack. The assistant conductor had said she heard the engineer of a regional train say he had been hit by a rock or shot at, and she thought the Amtrak engineer also said his train had been struck.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The State Department is proposing to release portions of 55,000 pages of emails from former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton by next January. The department made the proposal in a federal court filing last night, in a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit by Vice News. In the filing, a State Department official says a review will take until the end of the year. The disclosure that Democratic presidential candidate conducted State Department business on a private email account has been a controversy.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The founder of Alibaba Group is defending the e-commerce giant's stance against counterfeit goods and is expressing regret over a lawsuit filed by the owner of luxury brands Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent. Jack Ma says his company cooperates with brand owners to fight counterfeiting and has a large staff of employees dedicated to that. A lawsuit filed by France's Kering SA last week in a U.S. court accuses Alibaba of cooperating with and profiting from sales of counterfeit goods.
