loss OF lie, and made more terrible by
tho SELF murder OF one OF the terrified

morning on the Santa Fc road, two
miles north OF this station. Seven dead
bodies have been recovered from the
wreck and Il Is feared other victims
are buried beneath the debris. The
wrecked train was the east bound pas
sengcr. No >, the same that had such a
thrilling experience with bandits In
New Mexico on Friday night last. The
wreck was caused by the explosion OF
the boiler OF the locomotive. The engi-
uccr should have stopped for water at
Usage City, but being behind time he
endcavdred td run to the next tank.
The engineer and fireman both met
death in the wreck. The train had pro-
cecled but two miles beyond this place,
when two terrific explosions We're
heard. one following close after the
other.

tered. The express. baggage and pas
senger coaches came crashing upon
the wrecked engine and the coaches
tina. were ahead were piled up IN one
heap OF wreckaGe. The coaches In the
rear We're all dsrailed, but tho paSsen-
gers riding In the rear. escaped serious
injury.
The wreck was marked by scenes Of
the widest confusion among the terri
fled passengers. The nerves " many
were at IL high pitch as n resHlt Of their
experience with the road agents In New

the train had been attacked again by
robbers, one passenger. william
Becker. o. Los Angeles. California. en-

reason entirely. When the crash came
he drew Il pistol from his pocket and,
IN the presence Of Il car full OF terrified
passengers. took his own life. Becker
had hrcn drinking heavily,
Owing 10 the excitement and confus-
lon. llt;le could BE- done 10 rescue th,.

REV. DR.. SPENCER HERE.
Former Well.known Scrantonian
breaches Twice Yesterday.

Railroad Y. NJ. c. A. Hall could
not hold the throng that went there
yesterday afternoon to hear Rev.
David Spencer, d. D.. Of Dover, N. j.,
who conducted the weekly service, by
invitation of Secretary Pearsall. Mr..
Spencer, 1t is scarcely necessary to say,
was formerly pastor of Penn Avenue
Baptist church. where he spent over nine
Of the best years of his ,,ie. making the
church one of the largest and most in
fiuential in the city, and incidentally
aiding In no mean way in the upbuild-
ing of the electric city" name which
he gave Scranton and by which 1t is now
known the world over.
At present he Is editor of the Morris
County Journal, leading newspaper
OF central New Jersey, and in addition
to this fills the pulpit Of a little country
church at Ledgewood, preaching on
Sundays from the pulpit and the other
days of the week from the sanctum.
Yesterdays attendance was made up
almost entirely of former Pensioners
and on this account DR.. Spencer devoted
good portion of the time taken up
by his talk to touching references to his
labors here and the many and diversi-
fled memories, which their faces brought
back to him. The sermon proper was on
the text: Unto you. young man, be-
cause ye are strong" John 14:2, and was
one of those same eloquent strong SER
mons that were wont to fill Penn Ave-
nue. Baptist church, Sunday after Sum
day, when he was pastor there. Many
Of those who formerly enjoyed his
preaching, were not content with hear
ing him yesterday afternoon but went to
the West Side again in the evening,
where he filled the pulpit of the Jack
son Street Baptist church, which upon
hearing that he was in the city extended
him an invitation to conduct the evening
service.
After the service there was an in
formal reception and DR.. Spencer was
kept until nearly o'clock shaking
hands.
