their bodies have not been recovered.

city, doing as we'll as could be expected,
with good chances for recovery.
Three or four cars loaded with
freight followed the engine and cab If
the declivity and in an exceedingly
short space of time the whole was a
mass OF flames, the fire catching frt Ii
the engine. Eating its way backward
the consuming element burned ten cars
in which two tramps are thought to
have been confined. and burned to
death, and only the timely arrival of a
complete wrecking force from Yuma,
with water cars, force pump and an
abundance Of hose, prevented the
whole train from being destroyed.
The fire was put out and the work OF
ssarc hing for tine bodies was at once
begun, but no hope remained tkat
ther tho conduc or fireman could
still be alive. One body burned hey ond
recognition has been recovered, but
whether it is that of Dovey or one of
the 'tramps is not known. 1t is known
to not be that of Courtney.
The POSITION of the track ut II e
