Tramps Die In Wreck.

At lease five tramps were burned to death in a wreck near Nebraska City, Neb., when a Missouri freight train was wrecked. Two carlods of bullion for the Omaha Smelter melted as a result of the intense heat caused by the exploding and burning of the contents of ten oil tanks, including five of gasoline. The heat made the rescue of the imprisoned men impossible. The bullion ran into, a field near by.
