of an-
Chicago, Xov. 13. The officials the Baltimore and Ohio railway
nounce that they have received positive news from the wreck at Suman, and it is known that out of 13o people on the train, forty were killed, thirtyfive were injured, while sixty escaped unhurt. Chicago, Xov. 13. A west-bound immigrant train and a Chicago-New York east-bound freight train, on the Baltimore and Ohio railway, met in a headon collision at Suman, Ind., causing death and injury of many, passengers
and great property damage. Three freight cars and six passenger coaches were destroyed. The engines were thrown to one side by the impact, while several cars of the immigrant train were tossed down a ten-foot enmbankment, w here the ruins caught fire. The
flames spread with great rapidity. Many Killed in Their Sleep. The immigrant train was the second section of the regular express, and the first section did not carry any signal to indicate that the second was following. The freight train pulled out on the main track, and met the immigrant train on the curve. The engineers and firemen saved themselves by jumping, though the engineer on the passenger train was scalded by escaping steam. The passengers were asleep at the time of the collision, and many were killed. Horror Is Increased by Fire. The scenes that followed were heartrending, for the wrecked cars took fire and many were pinned underneath the wrck and were unable to release themselves before the flames reached them. The cries of the dying filled the air, and those who were not disabled tried to save the others, but they were not successful. Most of the injured passengers, together with those who escaped hurt, were brought to Chicago on a
! i special train. For the most part the ! Immigrants consisted of Russian Jews, Servians and T'oles on tjie way to Chi
cago and the northwest.
