Detroit, November eS.-when right fell over the scene of Yesterdays evening s awful calamity on the Wabash Railroad neer Seneca Mich, those who had bean inv estig ating the disaster had found noth- ing to change the estimate Of about s5 lives lost as a result of the collision.
 Superintendent Burns of the division on which the wreck occurred insists that the estimates are to high. 'I don't consider, " said he, that the total death list will exceed twenty" However, in support of the larger estimates, it is pointed out that there are now fourteen passengers known to be dead. The bodies of eight of these have been recovered, and it is con- sidered that the fragments of other bodies now in the mol que at AdraIn will account for many more then the twelve dead necessary to make up Super inten- dent Burns estimate of twenty.
 In addition to the comparatively few fragments recovered, and sent to the mol que, those who were early on the scene say that many more pieces were discovered which crumbled to powder while they were being removed.
 Can't Tell Number.
 Superintendent Burns said to the As sociated Press tonight that he was unable to tell the exact number of Italian i'm migrants aboard train No. 13, but thought there were not more than fifty. Passen- gers on the train and a number of those f1o number was nearer eighty.
 Coroner Hamilton of Adrain this after noon impanelled jury and will begin an inquest into the disaster tomorrow morn- ing.
 No steps have been taken as yet toward the arrest of Engineer Strong, whom Su- perintendent Burns says is responsible for the collision and holocaust.
