LAPORTE, Sept. 22 Special. rrobably the worst wreck which has ever occurred ia this part of the state took place at 5:45 o'clock this morning at Kingsbury, six miles south of this city, on the New "Wabash extension road. It was a head-end collision between a fast west-bound passenger and an east-bound freight. The passenser, an exfra, running as a second section of No. 55, left the depot last night at 10 o'clock, heavily loaded with passengers. It is due at Kingsbury at 5:30 a. m., but owing to the heavy trafHc was this morning fifteen minutes late. Freight No. 92, east-bound, arrived at Kingsbury and there received orders to side-track and allow the two sections of the passenger train to pass. The engineer complied with the order and the first section of the passenger passed in safety, tut through some misunderstanding about the approach of the other section Freight Iirakeman Herbert Thompson of Ashley, this state, was ordered forward to throw the switch that the freight night pull out on the main track and proceed eastward. The Switch Warn Opened. Suddenly, after throwing the switch and before the freight had gotten into motion, the second section of No. 5 loomed up ahead, running at the rate of forty-five miles an hour. Before the switch could be thrown back into position the engine of the on-coming train struck the switch, ran into the side track and with a mighty roar and thug, crashed into the engine of the freight. The engine telescoped the smoker and one day coach, tearing and cutting the sleeping cargo of human beings in an awful and heart-sickening manner. The second day coach was twirled lengthwise across the track and was balanced on top of the debris of the forward cars. There were two sleepers attached. The head one crashed into the forward coach and for the length of three berths was torn to atoms. The sleeping passengers, six in number, in that portion of the car were all badly injured, but none killed outright. In the sJeeper and the first day coach took place scenes which would have moved even the coldest hearts. Persona who were asleep were only awakened to bo caught by the cruel timbers of the doomed train and the life crushed out of them. Others were thrown forward by the shock and quickly caught and crushed backward by the demolished end of the car. Dead and Injured. Those who met death were: J. II. HcKENNA, butcher, Hyde Park, Mass. HENRY FRENCH, boy, London, England. CHARLES BIRBE, teamster, San Francisco. Misa ALICE II. REED. East Boston. 21 a? a. Miss NELLIE B. TUCKER, Newton, Mass. J. E.

" The Work of Relief. It Is estimated that fully thirty persona were .hurt, aside from those who were killed. The crew of the freight train was the first to offer assistance of any kind to the imprisoned passengers. Fire started from the engines, but the freight crew soon extinguished it. Issuing from the debris came groans and moans of agony. - The freight crew and the passengers from the rear sleepers worked heroically to extricate the victims who were pinioned under the wreckage. The bodies as. fast as they wer removed were taken to the station, a distance of seventy-five rods, where they were laid out in a row, presenting a weird sight. The Injured were removed to the interior of the depot where the hastily summoned physicians from about the near country worked faithfully to relieve the pain and suffering of the victims. A display of true heroism was shown on the part of Conductor Coultas of the passenger train, who was pinned under the wreckage. When relief arrived he told his would-be rescuers to let him alone, he was all right, but to help get out the others. He lived a short time after having been removed. Such men are a credit .to our country. A Hero and Heroine. A telegram received here early this morning called for four or five physicians to go to the scene of the wreck. Dr. C. W. Sparhawk of West Roxburj't Mass., was the hero and Miss Fairbanks the heroine of the hour. The latter is a trained nurse and her knowledge of surgery came Into good play. She followed the doctor in his directions and rendered indlspensible assistance to their traveling companions. A troupe known as Dr. Barnado's musical boys, who were to have given an exhibition this evening in the Epworth rooms, just outside the fair gates, were aboard the train. The manager, J. B. Wookey, was badly Injured. One of the boys, aged twelve years, was killed and two others received serious Injuries. They were in the fated smoker which wa3 torn into kindling wood. Mayor E. Warden and wife of Waltham, Mass., were aboard the train, but were not injured. A Marvelon Kncape. A young married couple tell of their most startling escape. They were in the first day coach and immediately after feeling the crash they slid on to the floor, which was the only thing which saved their lives as the telescoped end of the forward car was pushed back, taking the top of the seat which they had occupied. If they had remained In their seats their heads would have been torn from their bodies. "lliam Seidel of San Francisco was one of the only two who escaped from Jthe fated smoker without receiving serious Injuries. He does not know how it happened, but he was awakened from a sound slumber by violently striking the ground. Upon opening his eyes he found himself lying upon the bank by the side of the track, fully seventy-five feet from where the car he had shortly before occupied, lay torn In atoms. He received slight scratches and cuts. The passengers who were uninjured were conveyed to the farm houses round about where they were fed and given all the comfort which hospitable home." could offer. Both engines are total wrecks. The one attached to the freight was backed up Into a freight car, completely demolishing It. The boiler of the freight engine telescoped that of the passenger engine. A pair of wheels from the passenger engine were thrown a distance of fully seventy rods into a field. A relief train arrived from Chicago about 12 o'clock and conveyed the injured and uninjured passengers into that city. Who I to ISInmef Who Is to blame for this most horrible butchery cannot as yet be determined. The accident occurred Just at daylight. The first section of the train carried signals and why they were not seen by the freight crew has not as yet been made known. The brakeman who opened the switch cannot be wholly blamed as he was acting under orders, but he can be censured for not closing the switch as he must have been aware of the approach of the passenger train in time to avert the accident. At the Morgur. When the undertakers arrived the bodies were removed to Masonic hall in the village. This was the morgue, and here friends and bereaved ones wept over bodies which had been cruelly mangled. Here lay, side by side, the engineer and conductor of the ill-fated train. Strong men wept as they looked upon the long line of bodies outside the building. An Immense crowd surged back and forth, the silence being broken only by the muffled sobs and the cries of those whose souls had been tortured by the dread visitation of death. At the depot far different scenes were enacted. The wounded, those not able to help themselves, were being tenderly cared for. Bedclothlng had been brought from housts near at hand, and one end of the platform waa noon covered with beds. Dispatches to Chicago brought a relief train, and shortly before noon the uninjured and thiwe able to be removed were taken Into the city, where better attention was given them. Arrival of the Special. For several hours before the arrival of the Wabash special train bearing the survivor of the Kingsbury wreck a large crowd of anxious friends crowded about the gate, importuning Information. When finally the train pulled in there was a rush for the gates, which the guards kept back only with the greatest difficulty. William Allen of Charlestown, Mass., waa a passenger who had a miraculous escape. "I was in the forward sleeper," said he. "I had Just awakened and was about to turn over for another nap. There was a sudden stop, which lasted a fraction of a second, then an awful Jump forward and a crash. Then I felt something strike my head and then my berth grave way under me. Three feet more and I guess I would have been in the happy hunting grounds. The thing that hit me waa a splinter. I jerked on my clothes and then found that two ladles in the berth ahead of me had been killed by the shock. I don't believe they knew what struck them, as they must have died instantly. "I would not take the world's fair to pass through another such experience," said Mias Maggie English of Maiden, Mae., who, with Miss Km ma Scully and George A. McConr.Ick of the same place, wa an occupant of the first leerer. "I beard the crash and felt

It was for an instant only, and then everything about me seemed to give way. I was thrown from one side cf the berth to th? other, and then all was quiet. It was but a second or two, but it seemed an age. Then I heard the cries of passengers. Most of the people in our car were thrown out of their berths. Ths passengers who were unhurt were soon outside the broken cars and hurried t j the wreck. I saw one man, the side of whose face was almost torn away, who was the bravest one In all the crowd. He would not stop to have his wounds dressed. He said it was not dangerous and others needed attention, and with that bloody, mangled face, he was the foremost of the rescuing party, and worked until the last one had been drawn out and then be fell exhausted. The saddest thing was the agony of Miss Burbank of New Orleans, over her mother's broken and bruised body. Mrs. Burbank's Jaw was broken, hr body cut and bruised in half a dozen places and one of her 13 was broken. Her daughter was uninjured, and it wa3 pitiful to hear her cries when recovering from the effects of the shook. She sought her mother and found her pinioned under the heavy Iron washstand and water tank of th? ladies' dressingroom. The mother was conscious, and bravely bore her terrible ptin, as she endeavored to sooth her daughter in affectionate tones." Three ."More Ileporled Dead. Coroner N. Z. Cole of Michigan City imiMintled a jury and heard the testimony of witnesses to identify the remains and then adjourned until tomorrow, after having issued permits for the removal of the body of Engineer Green to his home.

A nrakeman on the Train Trith Ills Shotgun Proves Too 31 ach for the GaBR-The Wounded Hand it's Confession GlvlDK the Details of the Plot What They AVere to Do with the Sirng-Tbe Reported "Hold Up" a Fake. CENTRALIA. 111., Sept. 21. The train robbing epidemic reached this place shortly before 12 o'clock last night with far different results, however, than the recent robberies on the Lake Shore & Michigan Southern at Kessler, Ind., and Mineral Range road at Hancock, Mich. The attempted robbery here for the bandits went away empty-handed occurred on the Illinois Central at the coal chute, just south of the city. The train which was attacked by the outlaws was the Chicago-New Orleans limited which left Chicago at 7 o'clock. The train was a heavy one and could not keep up to schedule tlnie, arriving here about two and a half hours late. Yesterday afternoon three strangers were noticed lounging around the Illinois Central depot, but nothing was thought of it at the time, the belief being that they were waiting for a passenger train to go out of the city. It is supposed that these were the would-be robbers. It is believed that when the limited pulled up here the robbers got on the front end of the express car, and when the coal chute was reached, where coal was taken on, they climbed over the tender ready to carry out their plans of deviltry. As the train was about to start after coaling, two of the outlaws confronted Engineer Young and Fireman McDonough and commanded them to stop. "Don't move for your life," hissed one of the robbers, but the engineer and fireman paid no heed to the command and made a spring for the intruders. They were met with the shots from the revolvers in the hands of the robbers which laid them low for the time being. Engineer Yonng Shot. Engineer Young 'was seriously wounded. He was shot twice, one of the bullets entering the shoulder and plowing" through the arm down to the elbow, where it made Its exit, and the other penetrating the bnek and lodging in the left hip. The fireman received a shot in the head and one in the leg. Two robbers then proceeded to the express tar where "they demanded admittance, but were met with a volley from the express " messenger and the conductor of the train, Odum, who had gone to the express enr to see the mcsserger. Volley after volley was fired by oth the besieged and the besiege.-, v.ntil the door was shot full of holes. Finally the bandits secured a sledge hammer and broke in the door and then began another battle between the trainmen and the robbers. The former had erected a barricade of boxes and express packages and a regular fusillade commenced. In the meantime one of the brakemen had gone to the rear and groused the passengers and asked those who had tirerrms to come to the assistance of the trainmen. Among the passengers was an old time brakeman named Jake Sanders, of Duquoln. He had boen hunting and had a shotgun with hint. He immediately proceeded to the express car, shotgun in hand, and on arriving there commenced firing on the robbers in the car, who were slowly but surely gaining the supremacy over Conductor Odum and the express messenger. One of Sanders's shots took effect on one of the robbers and he sank to the floor of the car bleeding profusely. While Sanders was . doing yeoman service the third robber, who had kept In the shade up to this time, came out and commenced firing at Sanders frcm the shadows of the coal chute. His aim was bad, however, and Sanders escaped unhurt. When the wounded man fell to the floor the other two, seeing that the game was up, started on a run and disappeared in. the darkness. After the Robbers. As soon as the outlaws had taken their dparture one of the train hands went back to Centralia and aroused the marshal, who immediately organized searching parties. These are now scouring the country. When the facts became known generally, excitement was at a high pitch, and there was considerable talk of lynching; but, fortunately for the wounded man, the cooler heads In the party controlled, and he was taken to Jail, where a physican dressed his wounds. It is not thought he can survive. "While the shooting waa going on in the express car Conductor Odum was slightly wounded in the hand. The wounded robber, it - is said, is known as P. L. Jones. He carries a card from the Order cf railway trainmen, issued by one of the Chicago lodges, and he also has a switchman's card from the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe at Kansas City, '"he limited always carried a lot of valuable express matter. While the express people will not talk on the subject of the robbery, positively declining to state the amount which was on the train, it is learned from reliable sources that one of the safes contained fully $50,000 In currency. It Is believed" that the would-be robbers had received information as to the am, mt of money in the car, and it was their intention to blow open the safe with dynamite. As soon as the passengers on the train had been notified that robbers were attacking the train, they hurriedly secreted their valuables as best they could, and stood about the cars almost terror-stricken. If the posse capture the other two robbers, it will probably go hard with -them as excitement Is at a high pitch. Some KoTel Tactics. The robbers Introduced some novel tactics in their work. When the men in the express car had emptied their revolvers and were reloading them, the robbers tried a plan for which they had prepared. They had grappling hooks. These they fastened on the top of the express car, and, with ropes, lowered themselves to the door. This was dona to avoid being a target for the bullets that soon commenced to pour through the side of the coach from the inside. The railroad men were aiming low, while serenely above them the two robbers were wielding a heavy sledge. The door did not . withstand the assault, 1 and soon an opening: lartre enough for the robbers to enter showed Itself. Through jthia they leaned, and, revolv

ers in hand, faced tho conductor and messenger, both similarly equipped. Then followed the battle royal, the issue of which was in doubt until the timely appearance of Brakeman I'. J. Sanders and his trusty shotgun. - The wounded bandit in custody was threatened with lynching unless he made a full confession. Jones is a catholic, and a priest was introduced, and Jones then gave the names of the gang, whom he claimed were named O'Dwyer, Harding and Nichols. He also Implicated a man by the name of Martin, from Duquoln, who he claimed was not with the gang at the time of the robtxry. 0'Dwyers home is in this city, and his house was immediately surrounded and his surrender demanded. His mother refused admission to the searching party, and they kept guard over the house until daylight, when O'Dwyer gave himself up, and is now in Jail with Jones. One of the escaped men, was badly wounded by a shot from the hunter's gun, fired into the car where Conductor Odum was accidently shot O'Dwyer is uninjured, and is a resident of this city and bears a hard reputation. The latest reports have it that Jones's injuries were chiefly at the hands of Fireman Charles McCullough, who. during the struggle on the engine, 6truck Jones on the head with a monkey-wrench, knocking the robber clear out of the cab. Jones, the principal of the robbers, was Interviewed In the jail. He said: "My home is in Oxford Mills, Ia. I have a father .ar,d two brothers living there. I came from St. Louis to Centralia Monday with James Harding of Danville, 111., and Charles O'Dwyer of this place, and ascertained that the Chicago limited would be the most profitable 'hold up of any of the trains coming Into this city. Arrangements were made to meet at the home of O'Dwyer, in his city, after the robbery and divide the spoils." Jones continuing, said his own portion was intended for his father, who is in distressed circumstances. The Prisoners In the Toil. The excitement over the "hold-up" of the Illnois Central limited at this place last night by three masked men and the shooting of the engineer and fireman has run high all day and little else was discussed. Squads of railroad men and merchants were to be seen at all hours of the day in all quarters of the business portion of the city and around the railroad shops and lynching was openly discussed by the more hot-headed of the various crowds. Very little attention was paid to the matter until about 4 p. m. when MaJ. Renson was notified that there was a deliberate move on foot to swing the bandits to a lamp-post Immediately after sunset. The parties who conveyed the news were sworn members of the mob, and after maturer reflection were anxious to evade the Issue. The names of the parties who were to lead the mob were given and they proved to be men of resolution and determination. In consequence of this information the authorities determined to move the prisoners secretly to Salem, the county seat, fifteen miles away. The three men are In custody and the authorities are on the alert to prevent violence. The wounded engineer and fireman are getting along nicely.

The Superstition of It. ST. LOUIS, Sept. 21. The home of the unsuccessful Centralia train robbers has for the past two years been In this city and. If superstition counts, they had no right to expect success. Jones roomed at 1313 Chouteau-ave., Harlin at 1310, and O'Dwyer at Thirteenth and Chouteau, all taking their meals at 1313. During the two years they have lived in that vicinity, they have worked for varlosu railroads, and though out of work the past few months, only left a few days ago, probably after, having perfected. their plans for their imperfect hold-up. Jones left his baggage, showing an intention to return. Their residence here has been marked by no untoward act, and while detectives and others today made every effort to obtain clues, etc., nothing was revealed which gave the men anything other than a respectable record. Officers here are on the lookout for Harlin, who is supposed to be headed this way. Gnve to Cle". MILWAUKEE, Wis.. Sept. 21. Detectives of the American express company have been in Milwaukee for several days following a clue to the express robbers at Kendalhille, Ind. Three women were overhauled on the the Lake Shore a few days since reading a letter apparently written by one of the robbers. Afterward one of the women dug up a package from the sand. The detectives were unable after three days hard work to locate the women and they gave up the clue. MOB ATTACKS THE A. P. A. iiLoonsiinn at kansis city die TO Tiin BITTER. FEELI.VG. Clnnu Hetween Catholics nnd Members of the Organisation, and Bat for the Police Might Have Resulted More Seriously A Regular Iluttle. KANSAS CITY. Sept. 22. A meeting of the American protective association, the antl-cathollc society, tonight terminated in a riot, and but for the presence of the polioe might have resulted seriously. As it was blood was spilled and several persons were injured. The organization of the A. P. A. In this city has been attended with much bitter feeling and on" several occasions the catholics have attempted to break up the meetings. A meeting was advertised for this evening in a hall at the corner of Twenty-first and Bellevue-sts., and the members of the society, apprehending trouble. ' went to the meeting armed. Many carried revolvers and some marched to the hall with shotguns and rifles on their shoulders. The police had been notified that a riot was probable and a squad of twenty patrolmen were sent to preserve the peace. A mob gathered outside the hall while the meeting was in progress, but the police made no effort to disperse it. When the meeting came to an end the mob attacked the members of the A. P. A. as they filed out of the hall throwing rocks and brick bats. The police-made several arrests among them being an A. P. A. man, a railroad detective named Brown. He showed his badge to the police and waa let go. The mob did not like that and took aft?r Brown, who started to run. A shower of sticks and stones followed him and he turned and drawing a revolver prepared to defend himself. One of the mob, a man named Brown opened fire simultaneously and O'Connor also drew a revolver. He and each fired two shots. O'Connor received one bullet in tho thumb. Brown made his escape unhurt. In the meantime the police had made many arrests the prisoners being about equally divided between the members of the A. P. A. and the mob. Then the mob dispersed. I Car hcrTonieii mod Coaitipatlom.

WILL BE A FIGHT SURE.

IWLESS JACK M'AILIFFE IS VERY 51 ten MISTAKE. He Says Corbett and Mitchell Will Certainly Come Together He Looks . for the Englishman to Prove a Winner Bürge Backs Doits, NEW YORK, Sept. 21. Jack McAuliffe, the lightweight pugilist, who returned home yesterday in company with Charles Mitchell, the English champion, was asfced today by an Associated Press reporter to state frankly if he went to England for the purpose of making a match. McAuliffe winked both eyes and replied: "For publication it was not; as a matter of fact it was." Being pressed, to explain, McAuliffe said that he crossed the ocean on a suppositious pleasure trip In order to lead Jem Carney or Dick. Bürge Into the belief that he was not in condition and then Induce one or both of them to challenge him. He went away feeling tolerably well, and on the steamer going over worked like a good fellow In order to land in shape that would materially assist him in getting into shape for a challenge to have been issued while he was on the water. , Unfortunately his little scheme failed. He found on his arrival that his old antagonist, Carney, was making money as a bookmaker on the race-tracks and preferred to let the dead past bury his once-blossoming grudge against the American rather than relinquish the gathering In of sure shillings. Burge's friends made a bluff to the limit by offering to make a match for $23,000 at cratch weights, hard gloves, in private; but when Charley Mitchell went down next day to post a forfeit on McAuliffe although he knew that Bürge would not scale less than 143 pounds in condition he was treated to a "lay down." Therefore, McAuliffe was compelled to come home wjfiiout a match. xL Speaking of the Corbett-Mltchell match, McAuliffe said: "I do not intend to toot Mitchell's horn, but I have been in the Englishman's company for three months, and I think I know his mind. He has said that he would not fight Corbett if the latter Insists that Coney Island shall be the place. Now, Mitchell is a rich man and very Independent in spirit. He made that remark because he wanted to show that he would submit to no arbitrary dictation from Corbett, whom he personally dislikes. But mark my words. Mitchell will fight Corbett anywhere If it comes to a fine point. He has J10.000 up as a stake and Is confident that he can only get It by winning It in the ring. I'll tell you this: If that money should be transferred to me I'd guarantee that neither man got a cent of it unless there was a fight and a winner. There will be no draw In this case, and I believe that the men will fife-ht." COXEY ISLAND MAY GET IT. Mitchell and Corbett Likely to Fiht There. NEW YORK, Sept. 21. Charles Mitchell and Judge Newton, representing the Coney Island athletic club, and a party of friends, met at a quiet resort on Flfthave. tonight. The object of the meeting was to settle the matter as to whether Mitchell would or would not fight Corbett at Coney Island. Both Newton and Mitchell were In a pleasant humor and It was evident from the start that Mitchell would come to terms, providing the Judge acted in a manner satisfactory to the English pugilist. After considerable general talk of an explanatory character the judge and Mitchell retired to a private room and held a long, earnest conference. When they returned to the room where the rest of the party were waiting Judge Newton's face was covered with smiles and Mitchell looked serene and happy. One of the party boldly asked Newton what had been decided upon at the private conference. "Oh, everything is lovely," iaid the judge. "I stated the facts to Mirchell as they are and he says they are p-Tfectly satisfactory to him." "Yes," spoke up Mitchell, "everything is all right. The judge has given me a copy of the articles that Corbett signed, which I will examine carefully, perhaps making a few scratchu-s. Tomorrow I will telegraph Newton where I will meet him on Saturday in order that I may sign them. I hardly expect to do much scratching as I came here to fight."
