GEORGE WHITEHEAD, Paducah,

There were 10 injuries not fatal, exc
cept few minor scratches. The wreck
was between extra freight No. 602,
west-bound. and the bridge train in
charge of Conductor Hill. Hill was out
with his train and expected to take
the siding just east of the tunnel. He
sent dagman ahead and was backing
up with boarding car in front. He
had followed the flagman too closely,
and just as he entered the tunnel Engi-
neer Jones with an extra freight
reached the other end, his train going
thirty miles an hour. He and his fire.
man saw the danger in time to jump.
The engine crashed into the boarding
car, in which were the six doomed men.
The car was smashed into splinters, and
the engine plowed almost through it,
choking up the tunnel with the debris.
Eleven fiat and box cars were piled to-
gether in the rear, making access to the
wreck almost impossible. Only one
MANS voice could be heard, that of John
Condrey, calling in the most pitiful
manner for help. None could reach
him, and short time afterwards his
cries were still and it was known that
he was dead. Doctors Miller and Nc!
Nary went to the wreck from this place
was put to work at both ends. and to-,
night the bodies were reached, with the
exception of that of Condrey.
They were brought here and
prepared for shipment to their,
homes. A singular circumstance
noted Is that all of the men had their
heads crushed and, with two exceptions,
were almost 1uninjured in any other
way. The survivors of the pile train
say that the flagman sent out by,
Conductor Hill had ample. time to
get to designated point, and,
in fact. should have been there half
an hour before the arrival of the extra
freight. of the coming of which none of
them knew. The flagman denies this.
and says Hill followed him before he
had time to get out of the tunnel, and
that he was. in it when the freight came
in. All the passengers of the main eX-
press trains have had to transfer over
the hill at the tunnel, which is about
500 yards. Freight traffic was sus-
pended until midnight.

MANKATo. Minn., May l9.-The an
nouncement through the Twin City

extent of $4,000 Mr.. Saulpaugh has
made answer to the complaint, but the
papers have not yet been filed. He has
retained B. D. Smith as attorney, and it
is believed he will fight to the bitter
end rather than settle with Mrs. Stein.

city prior to defendants marriage to
Miss Roma Allen, which occurred in
Minneapolis some months ago. Mr..
Saulpaugh was the only heir to his
fathers estate. which was valued at
upwards of 100000. Defendant has a
legion of friends who hope satisfac-
tory settlement may be made without
taking the case into the courts. Mr..
Saulpaugh says the case is one of black
mail, pure and simple, and will allow it
to go to trial.

The crew of the Schupe are all alive on
board. The schooner lies easy.
The tug Thompson left here at 2
O'Clock with the Sand Beach life-saving
crew in tow. She dropped the boat
about mile above the Shupe. The life
savers finally reached the wreck and
took off the crew. and landed them on
shore about o'clock. They were all
alive, but in greatly exhausted con-
dition, having been drifting at the.
mercy of the waves for forty-eight
hours. The bodies of the brave men
who attempted the rescue this morning
have not been found. In on interview.
Dan Lynn, the only one who was saved
alive from the lll-fated yawl. said that
the boat became caught in or under a
timber which projected from the side of
the schooner, and when the wave came

All of the men started to swim
to shore, but they disappeared
one by one. while large

of the Thompson, and to the life-saving
crew. The t thompson had made four
trips out Into til e lake in the attempt to
rescue the crew of the Shupe. The
waves were running mountain high,
driven by gale of forty miles an hour.

In view of the various disasters which
