The carnage occurred in a collision on the tracks of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad between Chicago Heights and Glenwood, twenty-five miles from Chicago. The day was the annual picnic of the Sunday school, and as in former years hundreds of the children with their parents and friends had gone to the picnic grounds at Mornence, lit, for the day. The plcnle was over, and the train was on the return to Chicago when the accident occurred. The children in the first coach of the train were singing as it passed through Chicago Heights, twenty-seven miles form Chicago. Two miles further the train went on ,and then the singing was hushed in death for above a score, and cries of pain and horror for sixtyeight others. Two accidents combined to make the disaster. The first was" the break Ine down of a freight train on the north bound track on which the x cursion train should have proceeded after leaving Chicago Heights, and the other was the breaking of a coupling on a second freight train- Because the first train had blocked the rightful track the excursion train was switched to the south-bound track to run four miles, until it should have passed the station of Glenwood, just north of Chi cago Heights. ,As it tore along the track at the rate of forty miles an hour it rounded sharp curve and came full upon the second train, which was backing up on the south-bound track in order to take up its lost cars, and rying at the same time to keep out of the way f the coming picnic train, which it be lieved was on the north-bound track. There was no time for more than the setting of the brakes when with . unslackened speed the train with Its lead of 500 men, women and children crashed at full epeed Into the freight. There was a shock, a shriek and over twenty souls were in" eternity. The people in the first car were thrown up against th front of their car, which plunged up against the end of the baggage car just ahead, the Z2ZZ3 of people vras hurled aairrt the vrreck of the barrar car, and r.cbody

in the dense pack of people In the for

ward end of that first coach escaped death or serious injury äThe full list of Injured is sixty-eight The dead are twenty-one. ; . ' ; ' ; - Fl P.ST CAtt WAS A TOMB - , (There All the Deaths Occurred Help la Hurried Forward. The engine and baggage car of the passenger train went clear through the freight, and were piled up in a heap of wreckage on the farther side of the switch on which the freight was crossing from one track to the other. The first coach of the picnic train plunged straight into the wreckage, and bnried itself, a mass of kind ling wood, under the demolished baggage car. Nearly all of the passengers in the first coach were caught beneath the mass of debris, and it was here that the loss of life occurred. The people in the rear coaches were hurled from their seats, and many of them were badly shaken up and bruised; but all of the serious casualties occurred in the first car. The uninjured passengers and. the train men at once hastened to the relief of those who were pinned down under the wreckage, who were shrieking piteously for aid. The scene of the wreck was two miles from anywhere, and much delay ensued before some of the "Injured who Were held down by heavy timbers could be extricated. , Nothing could be done for. them until lifting machinery came from Chi cago Heights. Men were sent running along the tracks to both Chicago Heights and Glenwood, asking for aid, and In a short time trains bearing physicians and supplies for the wounded were on their way from both stations. . FRIENDS AWAIT TUE TRAIX Frantic with Anxiety as to the Fate of Loved Ones. It was nearly 10 o'clock when the ast of the wounded had been taken rom the wreckage; half and hour ater than that time when the tempo rary dressing had been applied to the ast wound, and the train carrying its woeful burden started for the city. When news of the wreck was sent to the vicinity of the church hundreds of the relatives and friends of the ex cursionists hastened to the station rom which the train left in the mornng. By 10 p. m. more than 2,000 anxious persons had gathered there, and their excitement was so great that many of them were uncontrolla ble. A squad of twenty policemen was sent to the station to keep order, but their efforts were practically un availing. The train bearing the uninjured from the wreck did not enter the city until after 1 o'clock, and meanwhile their frantic relatives were almost in sane with anxiety and desire of ob taining news of them. It was pearly o'clock before the bodies of the dead were brought to the city and an accurate list of them obtained.

CAUSE OF THE WRECK

Egregious Blunder Brought cn the Terrible Disaster on the C. :and E. I. Road . FREIGHT2TRAIN CREW BLAMED On a Track Where They Had Absolutely No Right To Be Correct List of the Dead. Chicago, July July 13. The wreck n the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, in which a Sunday school excursion train collided with a freight train, killed eighteen persons, principally boys and gilrs. As far as now known it was the result of a blunder committed by the crew of the freight train a blunder so egregious that if the coroner finds it as it is now stated the law is likely to come down heavily on those responsible therefor. By this blunder a train load more than COO of men, women and children was dashed against a heavy freight train and with a hymn on their lips eighteen persons were:' hurried to 'eternity, and more than 10O woundedof whom two-thirds suffered broken limbs and' I other serious injuries. . Official la Test Iat Ion Made. ' An official investigation has been made by Division Superintendent Russ and Assistant Roadmaster Buchanan, of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, and this Is the story it tells: "Extra No. 144, in charge of Conductor Coop er ena iSiiaineer lioxey, was nprtnbonnd and consisted of a train of about fifty cars. Going up an incline near Chicago Heights the trajn parted, a knuckle or drawbar lelng out of order or defective. This permitted fifteen coal cars to drop behind while the engine and forward or head end of the train 'went on, with the crew unaware of the accident. When it was disco veredelt was top late for the engine to back up as there was a steep ncllne. Where the Blonder Was Committed. "Hoxey pulled his train Into Thorn ton, 111., five miles north of Chicago Heights, where the cars on the head end should have been set out Here is where the blunder was committed.' Hoxey had Conductor Cooper with him and Brakeman "Wright Under the circumstances as we find them Cooper must share equally with lioxey the blame, noxey was on the east track which is used for north-bound trains. Here he should have remained,' for his rights under- the rules gave him sole possession of that track clear to his lost cars, and air trains would have been forced to wait for him. In stead Hoxey sent his engine and the head-end of the train which he should have set out at Thornton over onto the west track, which is used by th south-bonnd trains and started hl train back from Thornton to Chicago Heights for his lost cars. BAD MO BIGHT Olf THAT Til At K Should Never Hare Left Theratoa WICs out Orders. Says the Report. The statement then proceeds: "Hoxey should.' never have left Thornton without orders and1 under no circumstances should . he have taken the south-bound track, as he had abso lutely no right or authority on that track. This act made it well-nigh impossible for Conductor Cooper to sig nal for him to stop, as the signal could not be properly given. At Crete, m., the dispatcher notified the con ductor on the north-bound excursion train of the broken coal train at Chicago Heights, and as the broken -train was on the north-bound track,whichwas for trains bound for Chicago, the dis patcher's order was for the excursion train to cross over to the west tracks,, used by the trains bound out of Chicago. "Engineer Downey, on the excursion train, obeyed the order and as he did so his train pulled into the arms of death as dealt by Engineer Hoxey's mistake or neglect Meanwhile Station Agent Smoot at Glenwood, who is the operator also and who was not on duty at the time, heard the message go through his ticker for the excursion train to leave the north-bound track for the south-bound. A minute later he heard a rumble from the north and looking up the track be saw Hoxey8 engine with its broken train of coal cars leave the north-bound track and cross over to the track the excursion train was ordered on.The danger of the passengers on the picnic train flashed through his brain instantly and for a moment he was almost paralyzed. Then he shook off the feeling of dread, and copying the message as be heard it ran to the platform and tried to signal Hoxey 's tram, The coal train went' past him at a good clip and only the brakeman seemed to understand that Smoot was signaling to stop. - He gave the signal to Hoxey and Smoot ran up screaming to him to back up his en gine. Just then the excursion train hove in sight and Hoxey reversed his engine just - is he reached the curve south of Glenwood. This was too late, however, for En gineer Downey to stop the excursion train, as hi? view of Hoxey's coal train -was hidden by trees inside the curve. Just as Hoxey's coal train started to back the engine pulling the excursion train hit the rear coal car. That tells the story. What will be done with Hoxey and Cooper rests with the coroner's jury. Following s a correct list of those who lost thei. lives in the crash: John Bierllnger. 10 Tears old: Mrs. G. Geringer; Walter Geringer, 12 years old; Baby Geringer, 2 years old; Lena Hipelius, 14 years old; Andrew Kra mer; Mrs. Ellen Lander; Mrs. Emma Palmer; Leilene Palmer, 12 years old; Mrs. Mary Cherry; Mrs. Harvey Per ry; William M. Meyer, 12 years old; Charles Frobata, 11 years old; Mamie Probata, 3 years old; Thomas Volks torf; Thomas Sevecik; unknown man and unknown boy. Of these last two only the mangled arms and legs are left and it is thought that they may belong to some of the identified bodies, which would reduce. the number of dead to sixteen.

Five of the injured may die, and many

have two limbs broken. " BRYAN AND THE PLATFORM Ue Enumerates the Plaafcs That He Thinks Worthy of Approval Good ns a Whole. Lincoln, Nel., July' 15. William J. Bryan has made public a statement relating to the Democratic platform adopted at St. Ixuis. He says that "The plank on imperialism is positive, strong and satisfactory to the entire party, and this question becomes the paramount Issue of the campa!gn.kThe tariff plank is good, but it was made so on a close vote in the committee and largely against the opposition of Mr. Parker's adherents. The anti-trust plank is a goodone. The plank Is infinitely, superior to the Republican plank, and With a president who desired to destroy the trusts would be a sufficient plank. 'The labor plank is all that could be desired. On the whole the platform. Is good. From a westera standpoint, its great defect is that is makes no mention of the money question. An attempt was made to secure a plank opposing the melting of the silver dollar, opposing the asset currency and branch banks, and expressing a preference' for tbo United States note (ordinarily known as the greenback) . over the bank note but hawing refused to put In a gold plank the committee was not willing to have any phase of the money question al luded to. . - r While the motion to reaffirm the Kansas City platform wasyoted down. there was a considerable vote in fa vor of Its reaffirmation and the west ern members of the committee, togeth er with a few from the south, stood togctherand secured enough changes In the platform to make it a presentable document and worthy of the support of union men.- , ID BILL'S" ARREST Has No Bearing on the Hunt for a Solution to the Starbuck Mystery. DOCTOR'S VIEWS NOT POPULAR Politician Drops Politics to IiOok Aft er a Waif-Miss Vandeveier Released Items.' Greensboro, Ind., July 15. "Old UiH oLckridge. of this place, was taken to Newcastle by Sheriff Pritch ard. When anything is done here "Old Bill" has to hustle around for evidence that be did not do it A considerable part of Bill's time is spent In the coun ty Jail for drunks and misdemeanors He never pays his fine, and, for that reason. Is not a desirable . prisoner, There is no connection between the arrest of "Bill and the death of Mollie Starbuck and her babe. He was taken In on an old commitment for falling to pay his fine that he had agreed to settle some time ago. Mast Took "Old BUI A Ion The sheriff thought perhaps. Id Bill' might know. .something, and, as Le waa going down to towcs he just took -Old Bill along. That is all there is In the latest arrest- In this mys terious case. The 'understanding Is that there is another character, in Greensboro . who will be arrested. The people here are satisfied with the ac tlvity of the sheriff, and hope that in making another arrest he will strike something that will point out a clew, but up to this time the officers, and every one else are making no head way. They have discovered nothing that will throw any light on"the crime if a crime was committed. Doctor "a Theory Not Believed. The theory of acute mania, as de scribed by Dr. E. A.' Smith, of Knlghtstown, is not believed by those who know the young woman. : Nor do they bejieve that it was deliberate suicide. or that the act was the result of the hallucination of a disordered mind The ending. In the opinion of the doc tor, was the result of a sudden frenry There was nothing In her life, so far as known, that would cause her delib erately to commit suicide.' , Tflll Not Stand for This. There is one thing that the people of the community will not stand for, and that is tl.e intimation that the young husband had anything to do with the death of hls'wlfe and child Some cossipers tried to connect his name , with the crime, but that soon came to an end. , TAKES INTEREST IN A TVAIF Boouvtlle Politician Who Has Palled la foltttes On Ing to a Baby Girl's Arrlvat . Evansvllie, Ind., July 15. Judge C W. Armstrong, a well-known attorney of Boonville, Ind., who has been men tioned as a possible candidate for congress on the Democratic ticket in the First Indiana district is just now taking more Interest in a -little waif than the game of politics. Four weeks ago strangers left a baby at an old coal mine In Boonville. It Was placed in the orphans'' home and has been named Eldora Boon in honor of Boonville, the name Eldora coming from Eldorado, signifying mine. Judge Armstrong is one of the trustees of the home and takes a deep interest In the little walf. He visits the home dally and says he will see that the little child does not want for anything. His only regret Is that the child is a girl, for if It were a boy,' he says. It could help elect a Democratic representative from this district in a few years. "Sfad Aathony" Wayys Tljtory. Nyack, N. Y. ' July 16. The 125th anniversary of the capture of Stony Point by General Anthony Wayne, in the revolutionary war, was celebrated by the state Scenic and Historical society. - Darts Goes to Neir York. Eikins, W. Va., July 10. Ex-Sentaor Davis left Eikins today for New York, to join a conference of Democratic leaders.

ft Packers at Chicasro and Their Employes Swap Arbitration Propositions. TWO SCHEMES ARE REJECTED Strikers Attack Policemen and a Riot er Stops a Bullet Violence IS Frequent. Chicago, July 13.1 The strike which has demorliized the packing industry throughout the country has not been settled, but here are hopes that It will soon, end by the adjustment of the dif ficulties by arbitration. After a conference which lasted all of the afternoon between repxesentatives of the paekers and the officials of the unions the em ployers are waiting for an answer to a counter proposition which they submitted to Michael J. Donnelly in reply to a statement of the terms upon which he would be willing to make a settlement Donnelly says the counter proposition of the packers will be rejected. Two 11 Itches Are Discovered. One hitqh in the negotiations is. over the reinstatement. of the strikers. The union demands that every man who went on strike shall be given his old place before an agreement to arbitrate will be considered. The packers declare they will retain the men they have em ployed since the strike, and will take back the old men in the order ln which they apply for their old position. Another hitch is a clause of the' strik ers' proposition providing that the de cision of -the arbitrators must not in clude a reduction of wages. This the employers object to. They said the strikeis could present any question they desired f ction upon to the arbi t ration board, but must not put any limitations on the board's actions. Preparations for the Worst. While the peace negotiations are In progress additional preparations are be ing made by the packers at the yards for a long siege. The packeers, hearing that efforts were being made to Induce the railroad men who are members of unions to refuse to handle supplies where the men are on strike, are. busy putting in great stocks of coal to meet an attempt to stop their supp'y. Situation at Other Points. At Omaha the plants are working short-handed, but employing -men ev ery day; at Kansas City, a similar sit uatlon obtains, and in a greater degree; at St. Taul about 200 men have been put at work and both cattle and hogs are being slaughtered; at Sioux City, la.. 400 new men have been employed. STRIKKRS ATTACK TBE POLICE Several Officers Hurt and One of the Riot er Shot. There has been more or less threats of violence ever since the strike broke ont and some actual outbreaks, but It became more apparent last night A party of strikers met a detachment of ixrllea under, the command of Lieu-te-uanf .Moore, on Paulina street near Forty. fifth street . Oneof the. crowd burled a stone at the officers, and was at once placed under arrest The po lice started toward the 'station with their prisoner, when his companions attacked them with stones. Several voileys of these had been thrown when the police drew their revolvers and fired several shots at the crowd. Al fonse. Andrulius fell with a bullet through his shoulder and bis compao ions fled. . . Andrulius and the man first ar rested were taken by the police to the police station, which in a few min utes was surrounded by a crowd of several hundred then, women and boys. The temper of the crowd was ugly. and for a time it looked as though they would attempt to storm the sta tion. Calls were sent for reinforce ments, and in a short time several patrol wagons filled with officers from other stations came upon the scene. The crowd refused to give way, and the Officers were compelled to fijjht their way through to the station doors. Several riots occurred along Marshfleld avenue, where mobs attacked squads of policemen with bricks. Lieutenant Prim, of the Stock Yards station, was badly Injured by a large dog while attempting to arrests a rioter who had fled into the saloon of Tony Ezrskes, at 4531 Hermitage av enue, .When the oEcer stepped inside the saloon the proprietor urged a large doz to attack him. Leiuteuant Prim struck at the dog with his club, but missen lt. and the animal lacerated hi leg severely before he could beat It off. The proprletor and several other men in the place were taken into custody! The following officers were Injured during the fighting in the yards: Detective Beaden, jaw fractured by a brick; Sergeant 1'oehne, chic deeply cut by a stone; Policeman John Flynn, tsnrtnn rf lfft foot (Mit bv A Stone. I The following members of the mob were hurt: Anton Yetlack. cut in head and neck; Peter- Maslin. scalp wounds; Stephen Gesheld, head cut. Effect of a Home-SIade Skyrocket, - ' Sciplo, Ind., July 15.

The mVStery surrounding the whereabouts of Rev.'Elwood O. Ellis, who disappeared a week ago has not been solved and there is absolutely no clue. The police have abandoned the theories of suicide or foul play, however, and feel certain the minister planned his departure. Various motives are ascribed, but nothing is substantiated.
