blaze OF light was discovered in the

picious origin had been discovered

vince the police that an organized
gang Of incendiaries is operating in
Chicago. Good descriptions have been

running from the Palmer house, and
. number Of detectives are at work on
the case. The four fires. with the cir.
cumstances attending them, were:

SIX WERE KILLED.
r'vs Passsassrs and Firsmsn on Wrecked TrsIn
As Many Seriously Injured

Winnemucca, New, Feb. 10.--Tho
sastbound overland limited Southern
Pacific train, officially known as No. =.
was wrecked at $40 o'clock yesterday
morning ct q point n miles west OF
this place, while running at speed Of
so miles an hour, the train went into
3 washed ont calvert. and the result
was the worst wreck known on this
division OF Ebe road. Six persons were
killed and six injured.
The disaster occurred at q point
where an embankment feet high
crosses . rayine. Melting snow from
the mountains caused heavy rush Of
water which broke through the em.
bankment some time during the night.
The washout was about rs feet IN
width, and into the raging torrent the
ill-iated train plunged without warn
ing. The engine nearly cleared the
break before the rails gave way, the
tender falling back. The mail car
and composite car followed into the
ehaam, the composite car telescoping
the first Of the Pullman sleepers nearly
half its length.
Two sIeepers and the dining car re-
mained on the track.
The bodies Of two men, evidently
tramps, who were stealing ride, are
In the wTeckage.
Train No. 4. the eastbound express,
was following the limited train very
closely. and the rear brakeman Of the
latter had only few minutes in
which to flag No. and prevent rear
end collision.
At 7:20 A. M. q special train left
this place for the scene Of the wreck,
carrying doctors and nurses. and the
injured were given every attention pos.
sible, being taken to the hotel at Mill
City, the nearest station. The dead
and injured were later taken back to
Wadsworth on s special train. and
will be carried ON to San Francisco.
II will be two or three days before
the track can be put in condition so
that the running Of trains may be re
sumed. 1t will be necessary first to
build trestle across the chasm in
which the recked cars are lying.

shalt caught fire, and the IS miners
who were working half mile from
the entrance were caught in 3 death
trap. A relief party from No. 5 shaft
made brave but futile attempt at q
rescue. They were headed of by the
fire and could not reach the imprisoned
men. The attempt at rescue was made
through No. shaft. bat the flames
prevented any development Of the per-
