While Heavens soothing numbers

HERE'S LOOKING FOR YOU,

You really can't mean what you say

Quit Joking. now, and serious be-
You must, for goodness sake"
But still the teardrops in his eyes
Welled over round and big;
He shook his head: " can't attend

"But tell me now, do insist
Why can't this thing be done"
He gulped sob then sadly said

"Ho! hol" roared, and is that ALP"
Why, bless me- this is great,

FIVE COACHES PLUNGED
Relays Of Men Removing the
Scores Of Injured From
the Wreck.

CITY OF MEXICO, via Galveston,
March LIT is now known that 200
people were killed and injured in the
terrible wreck on the Ipter-Oceanic
railroad yesterday afternoon. 1t is
impossible to say as yet how many
of this number are dead as the
wreck has not yet all been cleared
away and reports are very con-
f1icting. 1t is feared, however, that
over 100 are dead. The train was
an excursion, carrying nearly 1,200
passengers returning from the pill
grimage annually made to the Sacre
Monteshrine. Near Pedra Blanca
there is a sharp curve, and at this
point, for some reason not yet def
nitely learned, five coaches jumped
the track and went down the side
of the mountain. Three of them were
smashed completely into kindling
wood.
AS soon as word was received in
this city a relief train was sent out
with surgeons and a wrecking force,
and the work of rescuing the wound
greSsed since. AS fast as possible
the wounded were brought to this
city. President Diaz having ordered
the military hospital with it's staff
to care for survivors.
A gendarme who returned on one
of the relief trains says he saw four
teen dead bodies taken from one
al,
in the most shocking manner; some
of them were in
FRAGMENTS AND LIMBS,
heads and bodies were mixed up in
such manner as to make Identification
almost impossible.
The scene about the wreck was most
sickening, as well as sorrowful. Rela-
tives were searching for missing mem
bers of their families, and women and
children who had lost husbands and
fathers were crying and moaning. in a
heart-rending manner.
Further details from the scene of the
wreck are expected later this evening,
but the telegraphic service is unsa tis-
factory
This is the most serous wreck in
Mexico since 1881, when a train load of
soldiers went through bridge 400 men
being killed
The most careful inquiries in this city
and of the railroad people indicate that
there were no Americans on the train
the passengers,so far as can be learned,
all being natives.
The train crew are Americans, and.
in accordance with the Mexican GUS
tom, such of them as were not killed
will be arrested at once, the Mexican
laws concerning the responsibility of
trainmen for such affairs being very
stringent.
