CoMPANY's ESTIMATE.
Places Dead at Not Over 20 and In
jured at 80.


Joseph Ramsey, of the Wabash. when
seen at the headquarters of that rail-
road here today, said that he had re-
ceived but few details of the wreck
near Seneca.
''The reports we have received, how
ever said Mr.. Ramsey, "show that no
more than 20 persons were killed and
thirty injured. The latest report re-
ceived at $50 a. m. from Superintend-
ent G. NJ Burns who has been at the
scene OF the wreck since last night,
gives those figures as the result of his
personal investigation. I have always
insisted that whenever a wreck occurs
on the Wabash that the number and
names of the dead and injured shall re-
celve the first attention of the official
investigating the affair. The property
loss and details as to the responsibility,
etc, can come Later
L cannot see how the accident oc-
cured it did, for the track on both
sides of Seneca is straight away, giving
every opportunity for men on the front
of one train TO see the approach of
another. A wire from Superintendent
Burns states that the track was got
clear by 5:35 a. m"
