Henry Hoerath, St. Louis, driver of tiie Public Service Company bus. was among the critically injured. Witnesses said Hoerath, who started working for the company yesterday morning, stopped the bus at the crossing, near the city limits, waited for a train to pass, and pulled directly in front of the oncoming Detroit to St. Louis flier of the Wabash lim*. The bus was sheared in half by the train and dragged a block before the flier could stop. The bus caught fire nnd observers said its fuel tank ex-
plod eel.
Some of the 30 passengers were thrown clear by the impact and others escaped through windows af-
ter the bus caught fire.
Bystanders and slightly wounded passengers fought the flames with dirt and tried to beat out the fire with coats. Firemen, arriving at the scene a few minutes later, quelled the blaze and removed five charred
I dies from the wreckage.
Two other bodies were found near the crossing, and the eighth victim died at the St. Louis hospital at | Clayton, Mo., shortly after arriving. The train’s engineer, F. L. Dolson of Decatur, 111., said he had seen Cie bus pull into the path of the flier “an instant before we hit it, but it
was too late to stop.”
An 11-year-old boy, Gilbert Barnes, a passenger on the bus, said he and several other passengers saw the headlights of the oncoming train be-
fore it hit the bus.
“Everyone started screaming,” he said. The boy jumped from the bus after tin train ground to a stop, and helped his 16-year-old brother crawl out of a window. Both were slightly
injured.
