Frantic People at the Station.
The scenes around the companys station
in this city were hardly less narrowing than
at the fatal trestle. Persons whose relatives
and friends were on the train were running
about in all directions, but no one could give
any information. As the train bearing the
wounded stopped at the station the crowd
became denser and more excited, and the po-
lice found it impossible to keep them from
boarding the car Frantic men attempted
to climb on the cars to look for missing
friends, but were pushed back. Women with
tear stained faces stood with clasped hands
and watched each injured person taken out
The Engineers Wound.
Engineer Swope, one of the oldest men on
the road, was taken to his home on Pine
street, suffering, it is feared with frac-
tured skull. A number of travelling men,
more or less hurt, were taken to the hotel in
carriages One fine-looking man had big
cash across his face that will disfigure him
for life Another carried his arm in a blood
stained sling One man, as he stepped from
the car, exclaimed: Thank God, escaped
without scratch; never mind me, look
after the others"
Heartrending Scenes.
When Conductor Angle with his pale face
| swathed in bandages was placed in a carriage
his daughter clasped him about the neck and
sobbed violently, applying all endearing
names to him. Another man. whose name
| could not be ascertained, fought his way
through the police guard and gazed at each
wounded person, moaning: "Oh, Eddie, Ed
die" He appeared to be searching for his
| son, and when friend assured him that the
boy was not on the train the father became
| almost frantic lest his boy was left among
the unidentified dead at Carmel
The bodies Of the dead were brought to
| this city at late hour last evening and are
| at kregler's morgue.
