track Oh the east end of this division. Both trains
were going at a high rate of speed, and came To-
gether with a terrible crash The engines remained
on the track and crashed each other To the smoke
stacks but the heavy tenders were thrown INTO the
air and fell the freight tender upon the engine, and
the gravel train tender back upon the first ear be-
hind it. This car was the scene of death. In it six
men were killed outright, and four Others, who
were fastened down by broken timbers, were
roasted TO DEATH the car catching fire from the
overturned stove, aud burning up before the stu
pefed survivors could comprehend the awful situa-
tion of their shrieking companions. Three men cs-
caped from the car and one of them said that the
fire could have been extnguished if water had been
appned IN time. The wreck itself was Il ghastly
