PLACING THE BLAME.
The Investigation OF the '.NeiIie
Rtv,, Wreck Continued.

TRENTON, y. :. March 29.-The coro-
ner-s jury yesterday continued its inquest
into the causes Of the wreck on the Cam
den and Amboy division of the Pennsyl-
vania February y, as result OF which
seventeen persons lost their lives The
wreck consisted of head-on collision
between the third section of the Nellie
Bly, express from New York TO Atlantic
City. and an eastbound accommodation
train
Conductor Sapp, Of the accommodation
train, admitted that he had not seen the
order requiring him to wait for a third
section of the Nellie BY, although it was
on the order slip given to him. He de-
clared that there We're two orders on the
paper given. which. he said, was a viola
ton Of the rules. and an occurrence which
he had never before seen during his many
years on the railroad.
He testified that he had given no orders
to move 10 the engineer OF his train At
the same time. it appeared that Thomp-
son, the accommodation engineer, had
overlooked the orders relative to the
third section These orders We're found
in Thompson's tin box and We're identi-
cal with those furnished to Sapp
The confusion arose over the fact that
the train hands were not in the habit of
waiting for . third section, the Nellie
Bly, having been run in three sections
this time on account of the increased traf-
tic on the eve OF Washington's birthday.
Superintendent Abercrombie. of the
Camden and Amboy division, was sub
jected TO a rigorous rcss-examination in
an effort to prove that the company was
trying to crowd too much traffic on Il sin
gle track His testimony was mistaken.

These States were selected at the di-

cause OF their Industrial prominence and
because of the Varied character of the

that these States in their methods repre-

inevitable result is that real estate and
some forms OF personality are unduly

These conditions under the search
