Report From Disastrous
Accident on Wabash.
BRIDGE WASHED OUT
Train Was Running at High
Speed to Make UP Lost
Z Time, When IL Dashed
Into q Washout.
Democrat Leased Wire Service.

News-Democrat Leased Wire Service.
Peru, Ind, June 26.-The train
wrecked near here this morning was
a west bound Wabash and was one Of
the heaviest and fastest on the road.
1t left Buffalo with car of Italian i'm
migrants. The dead are mainly i'm
migrants and it is believed that Is peo-
pie are killed. The corpses and in
jured are being brought here.
The train consisted of baggage and
express car, smoker and a day coach,
three sleepers and a private car. The
sleeper and private car did not leave
the track but others went over high
embankment and were telescoped. A
number of bodies have been discovered
but many more are in the weckage.
The dead so far as known are: Z. p.
Clough, express messenger and Fannie
Muhlgie, of New York City. Many
Italians are not identified. AS the con-
ductor has lost his books and tickets,
1t is doubtful if the Italians will ever
be identified. At least so people are
seriously injured, among them Fire
man Adams, who was fatally hurt.
Until the debris has been cleared, which
will take day, the loss of life can not
be exactly fixed. Those in the sleeper
and private car are seriously bruised
but none is fatally hurt. The wreck
was caused by a washout.

LESS THAN A MILLION
Estimate Of the Railway Loss
and That to Coal Min
ing Plants
LIGHT.

Bluefeld, w. Va, June 26.-Actual
canvass OF the situation beyond here
in the region overlooked Sunday
largely curtails the accounts of the
disaster. The death list seems con-
fined to the limit Of 60, nearly all of
whom were negro miners and their
families. The railroad loss is Just
less than $1,000,000 and that to the
coal operations slight. The dominant
loss Is the stoppage of work at the
mines when the contracts demand
daily supply. The Powhatan mine
has already resumed work, but it may
be about three weeks before all can
be placed in their former condition.
1t may never be known just how many
people were drowned. Many of the
families represented little more in
the way of identification than a name.
Only neighbors knew each other and
systematic listing of the missing is
not attempted.
Will Burn Wreckage.
The railroad authorities will burn
the vast accumulation of wreckage to
prevent it from making dams at the
bridges and also to preserve health.

the freight cars hurled against them.
About $50 houses in Keystone were
washed away, all the company houses
at Elkfork, and q number were wash
ed away at Shawnee and Burke. Rob.

committee, and Is raising money to

This will probably be true OF all op-
orators except at Keystone, which in
way Is a renegade settlement. The
operators resent mildly outside help,
saying it Is not needed.
Colonel Charles H. Howell, presi-
dent Of the Philadelphia branch of
tho Red Cross society; Colonel Hut

Boggs, private secretary to Governor
A. B. White, arrived on the scene,
only to find that the loss of life was
small. There is little actual suffer
