HOW THE HORROR OCCURRED.

narrowing Scenes After the Trains Col
lided-Statements of Scott and Wooley.
The orders to the engineer and conductor
of the Raymond and Whtcomb train
we're explicit, could not have been misun-
derstood and were not. Both Engineer
Henry Wooley and Conductor Scott admit
this. Wooley says the conductor told him
at the time his engine was coupled to the
train that No. had gone by-that he was
sure of il. Woolty says he can prove that
by his fireman. Scott says he said nothing
of the kind; that be knew the orders and
knew that No. had not gone by and could
not have said what Wooley says he did.
The orders were for the Raymond train to
wait for the Pacific to pass at the siding
at Nichols Wooley ignored the order and
went right along on the main track. Both
men were arrested and Wooley is in Jail
in default OF bond.
When the trains met the Raymond train
was at a stnEdstill or the loss of life would
have been greater. WOolcy was ON his
engine and had his side hurt. The first
four coaches of the Pacific telescoped.
The passengers were caught in their seats
and the general mass of ruins, and to add
to their agony the burning lamps explod-
ed and il moment the four cars were a
sheet of fame. The Battle Creek fire de-
partment got chemical engine to the
scene by hauling it there 10y hand, the
ground being impract.cdble for horses,
and it is due to its efforts that anything is
left of the dead except ashes.
To show the terrible havoc of the flames
it may be stated that the best preserved
body was that of boy and the upper
part of his head had been burned of, and
the fact that ne had no other wounds leads
| to the inference that he died by inches
nearly heartrending. Some Of the
| bodies were headless, some armless, and
| all were shrivelled and disfgured beyond
| resemblance to human beings. According
| to theI present outlook +. II. Smith, Il
| years old, is tee only one of the wounded
| who will die. The others will all recover.
They were reported out of danger at mid
| night, and all are receiving in the most
careful and experienced attention.
| Tie wreck was a carnival of death,
| holocaust Of the most ghastly description.
| Nothing SO horrible has been known any
! where in the country for years. AS the
| charTed remains were dragged from the
wreck they were piled in unrecognizable
| heaps in box cars. Ev,ry few moments
| the ghastiy store was increased. In some
instances It was only an armfun of bones;
in others charred flesh in shapeless masses.
Spectators were forced to turn aside, sick
| and faint from the awful spectacle. Words
are wholly inadequate to depict the horror
of the situation. The cars were all burned
like tinder, most of the passengers being
| pinioned in the wreck and utterly unable
TO escape the flames.

away. AS the Dlaze caught ner arms and
as she fought wildly to keep the flames
from her face she told her name and ad-
dress and left messages Of love to her hus-
band and family. The closing minute was
pathetic struggle against the inevitable,
but it was the flesh that fought and not
the spirit The white face of the woman
gazed heavenward and her lips moved in
prayer. Even the fury OF the flames that
wreathed her limbs and blistered and
curled the white flesh of her arms were
powerless to provoke scream.
Suddenly there was a swaying and surg
ing of burning timbers above and around
her. A wild groan burst simultaneously
from the lips Of the spectators, and strong
men wept. Through their tears they saw
the fiames.sweep around the face of the
martyred woman and her hair burned
wildly for moment. The head dropped
to one side as the victim inhaled the flames,
The praying lips were stilled and the sopl
of Mrs. Van Dusen had passed beyond the
fury of the elements of earth. An hour
later the husband, for whom she had left
a loving message, joined her in the world
to come.

never knew the frightful fate of his wife.
She was pinned in the telescoped cars
and at first had no doubt of her escape.
AS she looked out of the window and
awaited her rescuers the alarm of fire was
suddenly given. Hurry up; please hurry
up" she said, as the fear crossed her mind
that perhaps she was possibly in danger
of burning. A minute later, while strong
men were strainlng to eXtricate her, this
possibility became probability, and the
flames crept rapidly toward the impris-
oned woman. "YOu shan't burn; we'll get
you out" cried the men heroically, as
they wrestled franticalIy with the splin-
tered timbers. There was a lull of speech
for five minutes. The rescuers had be-
come giants in strength and desperation
and they struggled wildly with the tan
gled mass of wood and iron.
The woman was silent and gazed i'm
ploringly and inquiringly into the faces Of
the firemen MY God, Oh My God, ;" sud
denly burst from the lips of one of the he

and then her woman's weakness gave way
to her martyrs strength. Il can die oh,
yes, can die, if ! must" she said sooth-
ingly to the strong men who were weeping
in their impotent strength. Again they
struggled breathlessly TO rescue but the
flames were encircling the party and the
blaze claimed the victim that the crash
had spared. Il am a Christian" 4" she said.
resignedly, and moment later her voice
was raised in prayer.

helpless victim and the men were driven
