FArAl REAR-END COLLISION

Escanaba, Mich, Feb. 8. - Later
particulars from the wreck Of the Chi
cago g. Northwestern passenger train at
Ford River switch, last night show
that nine persons were killed, three are
missing and five were seriously and
four slightly injured. The bodies Of
the three missing passengers are be-
lieved to be under the burning wreck
age. III.
The accident was due to rear-end
collision. A last freight train was
making about 90 miles an hour when
it passed Narenta for Ford River switch.
The engine was forging ahead through
a binding snowstorm. which made it
impossible to see signal lights hut a
short distance ahead. When within 100
yards of the switch at Ford River,
Engineer Green saw the rear lights of a
train directly ahead and, with warn
ing cry to his fireman, jumped. The
next instant the heavy freight train
struck the passenger coach of the &C
commodation, and telesooped it and the
baggage car. ahead. The dozen OF
more passengers in the car had not q
moments warning before the crash.
Relief trains left this city for the
scene, and returned with the injured.
