Most of the passengers were asleep when th e crash came. The Cincinnati limited plunged suddenly out of the darkness and before it could be brought to a stop, struck the standing train telescoping three sleepers and derailing a fourth. Hardly a passenger on those cars, according to reports received »>it headquarters here, escaped without at least some minor hurt. There were screams for help and confusion as the! passengers struggled to free themselves from the wreckage. A relief train was soon speeding to the scene from Pittsburgh. In the meantime, uninjured passengers, largely from the Cincinnati train, ami those of the trainmen who were tinj hurt, bent to the work of rescuing I the victims . Five bodies were removed from the car not long after the wrbck. Other dead were found in the wreckage of other cars or were members of the train crew. Eleven as the known dead were passengers and four were trainmen. None of the passengers killed were

on the Pittsburgh-Washington express. Members of the train crew reported, according to the railroad company. that the fuse of the signal flare set by the Pittsburgh-Washing-ton express wh°n it stopped was still burning after the wreck, which was considered as evidence that the Cincinnati train had run past the signal. —o To Probe Gary Blast Gary, Ind..
