that resulted in an appalling loss OF life,

ern road between Logan and Missouri

The trains were going at the rate OF
fifty miles an hour when they met three
miles west Of Logan. Engineer Mont

broken arm. The officials of the road
positively refuse to give any informa-
ton concerning the matter, stating it is
sJmething that con germs them and not
the public. They even refuse to handle
Western Union business, and all the
information secured comes by the Omaha

Sunday morning tins Union Pacific
pioneers picnic was taken out over the

and last night as the excursion tram,
loaded with 100 persons, all residing in
and about this city, WAS moving out Of
Logan it was struck By q fact train
going east. The two engines crashed
together and in an instant freight and
passenger coaches were piled one upon
the other. Word was at once sent to
this city, and in short time special,
With doctors and officers of the road on
board, was sent ont from Council Bluffs.

the train, but instead of allowing them
to accompany the train, they were
elected, with the remark that 1--WE don't
want any damned reporters" Late
information received at Iona was to the
effect that the dead and dying were
being piled along the tracks in the yards
at Logan like cordwood. There were
few doctors on the ground, but not
enough to give attention to one third Of
the suffering.
1t took much time to prepare the in |
jured for their journey to this city. 1t |
was necessary to transport them to q |
distance after the wounds |
were dressed. Owing to the number it |
took still more time for the phvsicians,
sven though they worked as hard and |
fast as they could, 10 adjust the band
ages and to tenderly dress the CHASTITY
that caused men and women
and children to scream in the loudest |
lone in their supreme agony.
Thus it Yves that hours elapsed after
he departure OF the fret section Of the
L. orning train which carried the unhurt,
before the second section was started.
The latter carried all the wounded whose
hurts were OF any magnitude. 1t had
.lso on board such friends OF the injur-
I'd as would not be tern away from or
orced to leave the sides of their suffer.
