Other Bodies Resurrected From the
Debris-The Company's Statement.
CINCINNATI, o., Jan. "a special from
Greenwood says: "The fear grows hourly
that the most terrible part Of the story TO
Saturdays wreck remains to be told. As
time wears on and the wreck Is being
cleared away the presence Of more victims
In the debris becomes apparent
"When the wreck occurred a number Of
passengers who were in the ladies' coach
and smoking-car, on the north bound
train, succeeding in making their escape
from the cans with trining injuries. Just
who Is not known. Last night the horri-
BILE mistake was discovered when the
bones OF two unfonunates were found, re.
duced almost TO ashes, buried with the
burned ear.
"There is absolutely nothing by which
they can be identified, and II is not GER
tain whether the bones are those male
or female, or both. Mr.. @. G. Gillespie, OF
Beaver, small settlement near the place,
visited the wreck last night. While dig.
ing In the wreck, he discovered the hair
attached 10 tho scalp Of a woman. The
flesh, OF course, was burned away. but the
long locks were in good state Of preser-
yuuUn. Almost in the same spot where
the hair WIS found, Mr.. GILLESPIE found a
child's shoe. The other shoe has not yet
been found, neither has any account been
given Of lost child. A little deeper In
the debris, In the same spot where the
hair and shoe were found, Gillespie picked
up letter. II was written In a good.
piain feminine hand, dated at ST. Angus
tine, Fla, addressed % Dear Lula, and
signed 'Bena.' There is nothing In the
letter TO give any clew 10 the name Of the
writer or receiver, and the envelope can
not be found.
"Aflcr ihcaccideni search was made for
an unknown man who was seen 10 enter
the toilct-room Of the ladies' coach on the
north bound train an instant before the
crash came. lie was never seen again,
and all efforts to locate him prove futile.
II IL believed that he was unable 10 get out
OF the little apartment and was burned
to death In the car. IL Is believed that
the bonr found last night are those Of the
man and woman. The child was proba.
bly, with III mother and died with her,

suspicion grows that there are more people
buried In the wreck than were extricatod.' "
