Terrible Plunge of a Fast Train Down

Train No. 3, the west-bound limited,
one OF the finest trains on the Wabash
Railway, was wrecked at Cass, nine miles
east Of Peru. Ind. at 1890 Wednesday
morning by jun ping the track and plung

teen bodies, all of Italian immigrants ON
the way to Colorado, were taken from the
wreck, and about fifty persons are injur-

Train No. 3 is one, of the oldest ana
one of the finest of the limited of the
Wabash. From Peru west it is made up
of two sections-one from Detroit and
the other from Toledo-and consists OF
ten cars. With combined bas rage cal
and express, one combination, one day,
one emigrant, three chair cers. three
sleepers and the private car OF the gen
eral superintendent of the Iron Mountain
system, William Cotton. The train was
one hour late and was making up lost
time. While on a sharp cure, running
fully sixty miles an hour, the engine
struck a weakened culvert derailing it
self, plunged down the embankment The
express car and the first chair car tele-
scopea themselves, while the emigrant
car in the lead, and, followed by two
chair cars, went down on the left side
of the track. The first sleeper of the
train was badly crushed and twisted,
starding with its forward and hind trucks
one on each end of the embellishments.
The sleeper following was twisted and
the windows crushed in both ends. The
trucks were torn from under the car,
but no one in either sleeper was injur-
ed. Only the last sleeper and the private
ear of the Iron Mountain remained on the
track uninjured.
AT the foot of the embankment, so
steep that it could hardly be climbed,
crushed and jumbled in mass, with two
chair cars on the top of the emigrant
car, was where the deaths occurred.
There was no warning, simply a concus
sion. grinding sound, then a plunge to
death below.
The scene that followed was fearful.

Carson, wife OF Cowley County Kan,

Carson, who is wealthy, received an
anonymous note requesting him to bury
$500 at the root of a telephone pole by
the roadside under penalty of having his
house burned. The suggestion was ignor-

letter was received stating that if $o,0oO

night while Mr.. Carson was en- route to
Oxford for mail the home was fired. Mrs.

compelled them to cut loose from the two

bound for the Western fields.
Then there was a fierce conflict he
tween the harvesters. who resented the
vigorous measures taken BY the would

several of each party had been severely
injured, comprom Sc was effected by
several persons not engaged in the con-
