FIVE KILLED IN A WRECK

Express and Passenger Train on Readin Road in Collision. Trenton, N. J., Dec. 25.—Two engineers and three firemen were killed in a collision between an express and local passenger train on the Reading railroad near Pennington, N. J. The accident was due to the failure of an interlocking switch to work on account of its being clogged with snow, throwing both trains onto one track, causing a head-on collision.
