VANCOUVER, B. c., Oct M.-{Special. i
By collision of freight trains on the
Canadian Pacific railroad, between Kelly
and Brandon yesterday, a caboose was
crushed and two men were killed and one
badly injured. The killed are:
W. JoLL, of Durham county, On tario.
JAMES BELL of Vancouver, B. c.
The injured man is:
ID. BUNTING, of Rosenfelt, Manitoba:
badly burned and leg crushed.
The story of the collision, as told by
passenger on the overland train, which
did not arrive until last midnight, being
detained twelve hours until the wreck had
been cleared away, is as follows:
While the locomotive of freight train
in charge of Conductor Chester was pull
ing IN some cars on switch, second
train came tearing along at the rate of
twenty-fivemiles an hour and dashed into
that portion OF Conductor Chester's train
which was standing on the main line.
Conductor Chester ran up the line to sig
mai the coming train, but it appears that
Engineer Rogers, who was pulling the
second train, although he had his en-
gine reversed, could not hold her back
coming down the grade. He and his fire.
man, Holder, jumped few moments be-
fore the collision.
In the caboose, at the rear end Of the
first train, were the following passengers:
w. Joll, D. Bunting, James Bell, w. Nc
Lehman, c. r. Fessender and James Ben
nett. On noticing the approaching train
some rods away they rushed for the door.
McLennan, Bennett and Fessender sue
ceeded in jumping free of the vaeck, but
Bunting was caught. He was taken from
the wreck badly burned and with the loss
of one leg. Joll was killed outright, hav.
ing been taken from the wreck shortly af.
ter badly mangled. Bell is supposed to be
killed also, but as yet his body has not
been taken from the debris. D. Bunting
is young married man about 25 years old.
James Bell was member of the firm of
Bell Bros, carpenters, of this city. De-
ceased was a most promising man, who
was rapidly becoming one of the city's
leading business men. He was returning
from Griswold, where he had been attend
ing to some business. 1t is not likely that
any inquest will be held, as instructions
have been received from Winnipeg not to
