WABASH DEATH LIST IS rs.
Of the Victims Were ItaI-
ian lmmiqrants.

Detroit, Nov. 30.-An interview
with Thomas E. Moran, deputy GUS
toms collector at this port, practically
verifles the estimate that at least Is
lives were lost in Wednesday nights
collision and awful holocaust on the
Wabash railroad near Seneca.
The two immigrant cars, in which
the greatest loss of life occurred and
in which SO many of the wreck vic
tins were roasted to death, were part
of train No. 13, which crossed Detroit
river from Canada on the ferryboat
Great Western Wednesday and Col
lector Moran inspected the baggage
of the passengers. He says there
were at least 100 Italians in the two
cars. In addition to these there were
ten more in the smoking car, which
was ahead of the two immigrant cars
Official advices to Superintendent
Burns of this division of the Wabash
say that of the Italians in the wreck
20 escaped unhurt and were taken to
st. Louis, Is are in the company's
hospital at Peru, Ind, six others are
in Peru and two are near Adrian, In
jured. Subtracting these 43 frsm the
11O immigrants Deputy Moran says
were aboard the train, leaves a loss
among the Italians alone of 81. In
addition eight other bodies were re
covered and identified, which makes 8
total of rs dead.
