SEVEN KILLED IN WRECK.
Seventeen Injured in Collision of
Limited Train en- the Santa Ee.

Two Santa Fe flyers, one the limited
from Chicago for the Pacific coast,
crowded with Eastern tourists, came into
collision with fatal results ear Franco
MA Ariz. Seven trainmen were killed;
three passengers and fourteen trainmen,
ten of them from Chicago, Were injur-
cd.
That there was not great loss of life
among the passengers is due to the fact
that the three engines, two dining cars
and two composite cars in the forward
part of the trains acted as a buffer and
saved the sleepers and their occupants
from destruction. The travellers, how
ever, were all severely shaken up, for the
trains were running at a high rate of
speed when the accident occurred.
The collision is said to have been due
to u disregard of orders on the part of
the crew of the west-bound limited,
though full particulars on this point are
lacking. The east-bound train had orders
to take the siding at Franconil and await
the passing of the west-b9und flyer,
which was running two hours late and
trying to make up time. The east-bound
train failed to reach the siding, and as
the west-bound train did not wait for it
the two came together without warning.
The boiler of the west-bound train ex-
ploded Immediately, scalding to death
those of the engine crews who had not
been killed outright. The bodies of Fire
hen Case and Armitage and Waiter Sam
Brown are missing, and it is believed
they were cremated.
A scene of awful confusion followed
tho collision Tho m Seivo a1uinas, aiia6
up in a mass of broken and twisted steel,
while the scalding steam hung in dense,
suffocating cloud over the debris, from
which the cries of the injured and dying
enginemen could be heard. The heavy
Pr llman and composite cars jammed the
dining and baggage cars upon the heated
pile of deLcis, carrying death to the dim
ing ear crews and setting the ears aire.

SCORES DIE IN MINE.
A HUNDRED. BELIEVED TO HAVE
BEEN LOST.
Entrapped in Mine at Telluride, Coll,
Two Hundred workmen Battle
Against Flame and Smoke-Many Es-
cape by Old Exits-D Damage, $50, 900.

One hundred miners are believed to
have lost their lives as the result of a
fire in the Bullion tunnel. at the works
Of the Smuggler Union Mining Company,
just outside Telluride. Colo. Many bodies
have been taken from the tunnel, and
scores Of the 200 miners who were under
ground at the time of the disaster are
unaceounted for.
The fire, which is believed to have been
accidental, started about O'Clock from
defective flue in the buildings at the
mouth Of the tunnel At this point is the
upper terminal of the tramway to the
company's new mill at Pandora, and it
was in the bunk house attached that the
fire started. From this it spread to the
terminal station, which, with its ore bins,
machinery and supplies, is a mass Of
ruins.
The flames quickly communicated with
the other buildings The dense smoke
from the burning converter house which
was saturated with oil began pouring
into tive tunnel, which with the shafts
of the mine acted as a chimney.

filed with gas. As soon as the men be-
came aware of their danger efforts were
made to reach the surface through vari-
Gus exits, and about half of those in the
mine escaped.
The Smuggler- Union is one of the old
est mines in the district. and has several
abandoned openings, some of which were
available. Most of those who escaped
did so through the old Union workings
and the old Sheridan tunnel. A rescu-
ing party cut a connection through from
the Commission workings adjoining and
took out part of the men.
After the fire in the buildings was I'M
der control the dense smoke continued to
pour into the tunnel, and it was not until
8 O'Clock in the afternoon that it occur
red to the management to shut off the
draft by blasting rock into the tunnel.
1t is believed by mining men that had
this been done as soon as the fire started
all loss of life might have been avoided.
The property loss is about $4,000, fully
covered by insurance.
