Men Employed by the Hot Water Com.
pany Were Right on the Scene.

Probably the first on the scene were Ia
borers who were at work on the new plant
of the Marion County Hot Water Heating
Company, about fifty yards TO the west.
When the rush of the oncoming special
was heard the men looked up from their

the same time that a cut of coal cars was
backing UP the main track and realized in

THEIR STORIES AGREE.
Their stories agree exactly in statements
that the special was running at least TWEEN
ty-five miles an hour and that the cut of
coal cars was backing from the opposite
direction at about five miles an hour. They
saw Engineer Shumaker reverse his en-
CINE and saw both him and his fireman
leap for life. The crew of the switching
train did not appear to realize that a pas
senger train was rushing down upon them.
When the collision came. these men say,
the locomotive and first coach OF the pas
senger train and the first coal car of the
switching train seemed TO rear up straight
in the air against each other. That first

Of the collision, so completely had the first
passenger coach been shattered that in
many instances feet, hands and arms and
other parts of bodies were torn away and
tossed promiscuously through the debris.
Every now and then as the work pro-
crossed a wrecker with face half averted
would pick some gruesome bit of flesh and
bone. Once, as the wrecking party were
digging beneath the locomotive, the upper
part of a mans head was found, together
with a severed arm. The arm was wrapped
in piece of newspaper and sent to the
morgue the rest was buried in a spot near
the track.
1t required more than human fortitude
for men to work under these terrible con-

PERSONS ON THE TRAIN.
Miss Prudence Wager Describes Her
Feelings When Wreck Occurred.

A most peculiar aspect OF the wreck is
this: that none Of those in the second car
of the wrecked train was killed, and that
few, If any, of those in this car were even
injured to any extent. The second coach
was just behind the one in which the foot
ball players were riding. The second car
was occupied by the members of the band,
Professors Afford and Young, of the mathe-
ner, of the mechanical department.; Miss
Hillspaugh, of the musical department, and
Lafayette.
The second car left the track when the
crash came and rolled over on it's side on
the steep embankment east of the track.
