Three Dead and Others Badly Injured— Another Wreok Last Night Short Sketch of the Dead-Notes
About the Disaster.
Although gotten together

short
notice TUB JOURNAL'S two column account of the wreck yesterday was correct except as to a few minor details. Tho story condensod is aB follows:
The north bound mail train which left the Crawfordsville station 1. few minutes Inte started out at a pretty stiff rate, engineer Cowwell intending to make-up lost time. Just beyond the bridge over Sugar Creek there is a long and steep embankment and about thousand feet north of tho bridge a sharp curvo. On this curve the train while goinj at the rate of twenty-five miles an hour suddenly left tho track and bumped-along on the ties for two or three hundred yards. Then the train parted just behind the tender and tliideath and destruction began. Tho engine continued in its course a short distance and the enginoer and fireman were unhurt. The combination baggage anil mail car containing the baggage man, express messenger and mail clerks rolled down tho 60 foot embankment and the occupants were considerably disfigured. The next car was tho baggage car without a person in it and strangely enough remained on tho ties. The 6inoker rolled down, however, and took fire from the deadly car stove, burning up- The ladies'car suffer the worst. .It must have turned over several times on its way down the embankment and in it the most of the deail und wounded were found. It was almost literally brokod to splinters. The last car named the "Minerva," also went down tho hill, but being strongly built did not suffer beyond repair. A pair of trucks crashed through it and broke in two. but fortunately no one happened to ba sitting at that point. The porter, who was sitting in tho dish room suffered worse than any one else, all his ohina being broken over his head. The engineer and others hurried to town to give the alarm and on the way called to Martin's ico men, who were soon on the scene rendering valiant service. A little later citizens with all kinds of conveyances were on tho ground and the work of transportation to town began. Most of the victims were taken to tho Nutt House, but a few to other hotels and to and private houses.
THE WRECK AT NIGHT.
As soon as the injured had been carried into the city from the scene of the disaster last night, the officials of the road placed eight guards over the wreck to protect the scattered property from the ravages of vandals. All night the bon fires blazed away quite merrily and the guards stood, around stretched ou on car seats and discussed the horror. No one appeared to steal or pillage and early this morning tho baggage wagons appeared on the scene to carry back tho valises, overcoats, and other luggago which had been piled up promiscuously to await identification. The trains passed all night as the wrecking cro-.v worked hard and by the time the midnight mails wore duo the track was clear and repaired. The broken cars and trucks, not totally destroyed, will be hauled back to the company's shops for repairs. Tho car "Minerva" can be repaired although a pair of trucks crashed clear through it. The smoker was burned up entirely and the ladies' car smashed to dindling wood. The other car which loft the track, tho mail car, is but slightly injured and will need but few repairs. The other cars were left upon tho embankment and. of course, not injured much.
ANOTHKli ACCIDENT.
At about eleven thirty o'clock an alarm of fire sent everybody scurrying down to the Monon station whoro it was reported another wreck had occurred. The report was very true. Enginoer Werkoff, of through freight No. 72, came puffing around the curve at the McKeen mills at the time of the wreck and his hair atood on end when ho saw upon the track at the station tho wreckingjtrnin. Werkoff had 35 loaded cars behind him and although he had slowed up to stop he could not possibly do so in time to avert a roar end collision. Tho engine went into th« wrecker's caboose with a crash, throwing tho nino men who wore sleeping in it all over each other and the floor. A barrel of oil was very handily upset on the red hot stove and things in general were in a pretty mess. Werkoff could not back his engine out and could merely stand and utter cries of fire, while the nine gentlemen picked themselves up out of the burning oil and Vent flying about just as tho fire company opened up on them with two or three streams. Three cars and the station wero on fire, but. it WSB not long before what threatened to be a serious conflagration was under control. The old station reoeived a much needed washing and in tho confusion a number of Agent Watson's papers .were washed away. Tho money box was also mifsing but after a lively search was found. This wreck, after the other so serious one,

She wns a devout Catholic and Father Dinnen held mass over her remains this afternoon previous to her burial in Oak Hill cemetery. She was a pleanint lady and tho female members of the troupe shed bitter tears over the thought of her being buried so far from her foreign homo among strangers.

WerkotT throws the entire blame on-the Conductor Ivramor, who, WerkotI assorts, had no flagman out 'o warn him of tho position of the wrecking train. Kramer asserts that he did have a tlagman out and tnat Werkoff failed to see him. Tho issue therefore resolves itself into a question of veracity.

Mr. Cheek, conscious of his approaching death displayed a remarkable courage and fortitude and all in his |ower to comfort and encourage his weeping wife and child. Mr. Cheek was a prominent lumborman of great activity and business foresight, having a largo milling business at THin, 111. He was •12 years of age and an exemplary man in every way. Ho died from tho shock caused by having his log mashed off and from loss of blood. Tho remains accompanied by the sorrowing family loft for Greencastle this afternoon where the interment will take place.
Tho relatives of Ben Hauiberger. who was instantly killed and so horribly mangled, arrived from Cincinnati last night and, taking charge of tho body, left for his homo in Cincinnati, this afternoon. Ben Hauiberger has been traveling fifteen years through this section for Liebman .t Schloss and
