Ing meal-when an autoist who had followed In a machine close to the car which was wrecked, came to the farm house and arfked for assistance. Mr. Kellman hurried to the scene. More than a half mile to the north he saw the red tail lights of the Hoosler Limited. The train had gone that far before the engineer could bring It to a stop. At the foot of the embank-' ment half hidden In the dark and among the weeds he saw two figures stumbling about. He himself came upon two dead bodies. Finds Wife And Son Dead. "For God's sake, where Is my wife," he heard Leo Rubin say. Unnerved by the shock of seeing Mrs. Rubin dead he fell back upon the embankment !n a faint, but roused himself Immediately to continue the ghastly work of as sembling the arrangements of bodies. This morning there were still plenty of evidences of the slaughter. Remains of a lunch that the party had stowed away In the car was scattered over the ground. A shred of the baby's clothing hung on a weed. Nearby was a torn copy of Thb Lake Cot'wrr Times of an old date, showing headline of an accident on the Wabash railroad. The weeds were trampled down by scores of passengers from the Limited who hearing of the accident had left the coaches. Mr. Keilman was on the scene again this morning. His eyes showed signs ot a sleepless night, and he admitted that after seeing the sights of last night that sleep was Impossible. The dead were placed in a combination car of the train and of the in jured Schiller and Miss Kahn who are engaged were separated. Schiller continued to beg that his fiancee be attended until given opiates to quiet him. Dr. J. S. Holloway of Knightstown, Ind., was located by the train crew and attended the injured. Two women passengers were volunteer nurses. Engineer's First Accident. "I've been on the Monon eighteen years," said Engineer Balanger, "and this Is the first accident I ever had. The automobile approached from the fireman's side and we did not see it until too late." He was particularly overcome at the sight of the two dead children, who were hurled the farthest from the scene of the accident. , At South Hammond the conductor telegraphed to Chicago to arrange for ambulances and physicians to care for the victims. The injured were taken to St. Bernard's Hospital at Yale avenue and West Sixty-fourth street and the dead to the. Western Casket and Undertaking Company rooms. The Englewood police took charge of the bodies. Tragedy Ends Day's Outing. The machine was a small Ford, owned by Isadore Schiller. He is a close friend of the Rubins and invited them for a tour during the day. With seven passengers besides the driver the machine left the Schiller residence about noon.- They drove south at a lively clip. Driver Tells of Accident. Schiller, who drove the car, was able to tell of the accident after reaching the hospital. "I was driving along at about eighteen miles an hour," he said. "We. wore our Way home from Cedar Lake. I didn't hear any train coming and bolieved there was no chance of danger when I drove up the- embankment to cross the track. "The tracks are about fifteen feet above the level of the road, and I put on more power to make the grade. Just as the front wheels of our car reached the level of the track bed T saw the train approaching at a rapid rate. There was no chance to back down. I couldn't stop without being right in the path of the train. I opened the throttle in the hope I might drive the machine across the track ahead of the engine. But I failed. The engine struck th rear ot tne macnine, ana xnax b bdoui all I remember of the accident." Passeng:r- Aid Train Crew. All the mothers and children must have been killed instantly when the rushing engine crashed into the macine. . Grief-strloken, the survivors continued the search, until the body of Alexander Ruben was found. He also is believed to have met his death instant!--. The crew of the train and many passengers aided in placing the dead and injured on board the trairu after it had been backed up to the scene and the trai- rushed to Chicago. When Miss Kahn was lifted into the baggage car she was placed next to the bodies of the two women. Brie was revived for a moment, gazed wildly about her, and as her look fell upon the mutilated bodies she shrieked and swooned again. For a time physicians, who were on the train, thought that she, too, would succumb. The pilot of the engine was wrecked by the impact. The members of the train crew all reside in Indianapolis. They are: W. S. Balanger, engineer; Charlts B. Quinn, fireman; Robert B. Strong, conductor; Michael Gallagher, baggageman, and R. J. Hedrick, brakeman. The Hoosler Limited is due about seven o'clock in St. John. Eemora Bodies Without Permission. The removal of the dead bodies from the county without the permission of the county coroner might be cause for ft legal prosecution, although Coroner Frank Smith of Gary indicated this morning that no legal steps need be taljen if those concerned in the inquest work with him Instead of aganst him In acertaining the facts.

-i TRIES IR IKE HIS ESCAPE Everybody knows about the aacent of Elijah of Bible times, but Indiana Harbor has come to the front with another Elijah, whose story is worth recording, and who Instead of ascending, descended. Incidentally If Officer John Lazaar and several others present their cleaners bill for which the said descent was responsible, to the city. the administration will have reason to remember the sad occasion of the descene or .iijan Kocnesia.

This particular Elijah, was brought shooting of Mra. Herbert Church, who Into the station by OITlcer O'Connell w,s wounded by two bullets carelesslast night. He was full. Yea, that iy flred by Lemert at at wedding celehomely phrase describes his condition bratlon in Miller last week, better than any other form of words. Shot t Seare Woman.

When locked up In his cell he refused : to give his name and was booked under the simple style and title of John Doe. Officer Lasaar who was on desk duty after locking his prisoner up, returned to his desk to ruminate over the mutlfarious duties of the night. the jail being full of prisoners In a condition similar to that of the latest catch. I While thus ruminating he was startled by muffled shouts which emanated from well. Officer Lazaar could scarcely determine whether the source of the noise was rrom the bowels of the earth, or from overhead. It might be an earth quake and again it might be a cloud burst. Shouts of prisoners were added to the strange disturbance and. the acting sergeant made a bee-line for the Jail. "Let me out, out, out!" came in muffled uproar similar to the uound that had first interrupted Officer Lazaar's reflections. The sound led to a ventilator shaft communicating with the cell In which when Lazaar had last been there, he had left "John Doe," as he supposed, securely locked. John was missing. An iron grating which had partly enclosed the ventilator opening, stood upon the floor, having been torn from its fastenings and leaving a sooty gap in the wall. Officer Lazaar put his head Into the opening. When he withdrew it. he closely resembled Williams and Walker in their very best makeup. His brief inspection however left no doubt that there was a man In the depths of the ventilator stack. If allowed to remain there more than a ?ew minutes, he would surely suffocate ' A prisoner volunteered to go Into the opening and bring up the man within the stack if a chain of officers! and other prisoners would hold him by the feet. The volunteer was accordingly suspended, head down. Into the shaft and Elijah, alias John Doe was brought up. Elijah waa a sorry looking spectacle and so was everybody concerned In the rescue, after this had been accomplishej. His features were unrecognizable by reason of the soot which covered them, and his eloths were a sight. He began to wash up at four this morning and was still at It at ten. Officer Lazaar did likewise. The prisoners formed themselves into a bucket brigade to furnish thf changes of water necessary for this interesting operation. After his rescue the prisoner gave up his real name and when asked wr.y he had refused last night said: "I saw that ventilator and thought I would
