ALAKEDISASTER
Schooner Nelson Founders on Grand
Maraias Island-Lives Lost.
The Schooner became Unmanageabls.
Threw Her Stern Into the Air and
Dove Straight for Bottom-.he
Sank in 300 Feet OF Water.

SAULT STE. MARIE Mich, May 15.-
The schooner Nelson. deeply laden
with a cargo of coal, foundered in
Lake Superior, off Grand Maraias,
Saturday evening, and carried down
all hands. So far as known here only
one man, Capt. IIaghney, escaped
from this, the first disaster Of the sea-
son. The crew consisted of the follow
ing:
Capt. Andrew lIaghney, of Toledo;
captains wife; two-year-old child of
Capt Haghney; Fred Hawes, sailor,
residence unknown; six sailors, names
unknown.
The Nelson, which is owned by the
Mitchell Trans nsportation Co., of Bay
City, was in tow of the steamer A.
Folsom, which also had the schooner
Mary Il. Mitchell as a consort. The
Folsom and Mitchell turned back and
arrived here Sunday afternoon with
out serious damage. Capt. Z. A. White,
master of the steamer, at once report
ed the disaster to the owners.
The Folsom and Mitchell and Nelson
were laden with coal. At the time of
the disaster the wind was blowing a
gale of 80 miles an hour and freezing
hard. The three boats were being
coated with ice, and this added to their
coal, made them ride very low in the
water. Seas broke aboard constantly
and the force of the gale was driving
them toward the beach.
The beach at Grand Maraias was but
seven lengths under the lee OF the
boats and Capt White determined to
try the dangerous expedicnt Of turn
ing the tow in the sea and running be-
fore the wind for White Fish point.
Before the turn was finished the Nell
son was seen to turn toward the shore
and it became evident that the line
had parted under the strain or had
been cut. Soon it became apparent
that she was sinking. There was no
chance Of rendering any assistance
however. In few minutes the Nelson
threw her stern into the air and dove
straight for the bottom. Where she
sank there is 300 feet Of water. The
crew had no time to even lower their
yawl boat, which hung on the davits
at the stern.

0ohisioa on the Philadelphia q Reading
kAsd-Hany Persons Were Killed
and Injured

READING, Pa, May ia collision
OF passenger trains occurred on the
Philadelphia & Reading railroad a,
Exeter, about six miles south of this
city Friday night and great number
OF people were killed and injured.
There Is no telegraph Office at Exeter
and details therefore are difficult to
obtain at this writing. The number
killed is variously stated to be from Is
to %. Fully so others are injured.
The regular express train from Potts
vile for Philadelphia Is connected at
the station in Reading with a train
from Harrisburg, which was crowded
with excursionists, who had been to
the state capital to witness the cere-
monies in connection with the unvcil-
ing of the Ilartranft monument
Many of the Harrisburg passengers
at Reading went aboard the Philadel-
phia express, but it being found that
all could not be accommodated it was
decided to send an extra train to Phila-
delphia to run as the second section of
the express. The extra train left 20
minutes later than the express. At
Exeter the express stopped for orders
and while standing still the extra
train crashed into it while moving at
great speed.
Three Of the rear cars of the express
were telescoped and the first car of the
extra train was also wrecked. The
passengers in these cars were terribly
mangled, many being killed outright,
while others had limbs and bodies
manned. Word was at once sent to
Reading and special train with ply
sicians and nurses was sent to the
scene as quickly as it could possibly be
put in readiness.
Exeter is flag station and has no
telephone communication 1t is stated
that the passengers on the second train
were mostly from Morristown, and that
several from the borough were killed
and many injured.
United States Senator Boies Pcnrose
and Gen. f. Burd Grubb we're passen-
gers on the wrecked train. The rear
end of the car in which they were rid

men, though badly shaken up, were

the rear cars were killed or injured,
but said when the train left the scene
those needing attention were being

residents OF the neighborhood.
He said he learned that several
were killed and many badly injured,
but as to the number he could not say.
A few Of those whose injuries were
slight came on the train to Philadel-
phia, but the train left soon after the
accident and the more seriously in
jured were left at the scene and were

The second relief train left Exeter
at $50 a. m. Saturday. 1t brought to
Reading 90 additional bodies The
names are not yet known. Most of
the seriously injured were brought
here on the first relief train. The rest
of the injured were taken to Potts
town and Morristown.
The northbound track has been clear
ed and the first train through to this
city from Philadelphia was the Buffalo
express which left Philadelphia at
