were within fifty feet. The engineers
set the brakes, sounded the whistles and
then leaped from their cabs. A second
after the collision the boiler Of the work

and splinters Of wood 200 feet.
Conductor Judge, of Indianapolis who
had charge OF the freight train, received

One OF the last bodies recovered was
that of William Bailey, of Mackinaw,
who had been thrust thirty feet into the
air and held by two steel rails which
had been pushed up between the engine
and the tender Of the work train. The
workmen had been laying steel rails
along the track
