CHICAGO, July 31.-The relatives OF the
late Thomas Hoyne, who was killed in the
accident on the Rome, Watertown & Og-
densburg railway, give deplorable recita I
of the condition of affairs in and about the
wreck. The son of Hoyne relates the train
men refused to allow the coffin to be opened
to guard against the possibility of a mis-
take in the identity, and was unable by any
process to reach the scene of the disaster by
making an application to the railway auth
critics.
The daughter OF Mr.. Toyne relates that
no attention was paid to the dead after the
accident, and that the bodies were lying on
the side OF the road, exposed to view four
teen hours after the disaster. 1t is further
declared that parties were opening valises
and searching the bodies of the dead while
the employees of the road were engaged in
removing the debris. Mr.. Hoyne had
large sum OF money with him. but his rela-
tions state that his watch and all other
valuables were missing. tits thought
that portion may be in the custody of the
coroner.
