to work at once to get out the injured
before the flames could reach them.
At times while toiling in the wreckage
the flames reached the reseuers, and
their clothing took fire. but they work.
ed on though IN constant danger of be
ing killed themselves. Some OF the in,
Sured were burned to death in sight
of the men who were working With
desperation to save them, but the
flames soon gained complete mastery
Of the last two cars.
The firemen from Westfeld we're
summoned by phone. but arrived too
late to save many lives. Doctors were
called for from Elizabeth, Westfield
and Plainfield, and there was a score
on hand The parlor cars of the Royal
Blue line train were converted into
temporary hospitals.
The fireman after a time mastered
the flames. Then the wreckage was
attacked again and the work OF re-
covering the bodies was begun. Out of
the first car eight bodies were taken.
The sight while the wreck was burning
was horrifying. Men could be seen in
the wreckage pinned fast amid the tim
bers of the cars and struggling to be
free while the flames roared around
them. The rescuers were helpless to
aid them. as they already had been
driven from the wreck by the flames.
One of those who tried to take out a
man pinned in found that he was held
down by one leg near the ankle, and
seeing it would be useless to do any
thing else, is said to have finally sever
ed the mans leg and then carried him
to one of the parlor cars. Both res
cued and rescuers were badly burned.
When the engine ploughed into the
rear car it partly split the car open.
ard at the same time lifted it up and
on to itself. This car was the first to
take fire and most of those in it are
dead. Some of them are believed to be
beneath the overturned engine.
Those in the car ahead, which was
lifted over the rear car, suffered the
most. For some tima before the flames
reached them the car below and behind

steam, and it was here that the worst
sights were witnessed. The imprls-
oned ones begged for death to end
their agonies, and implored those who
were laboring to get them free to crush
their heads with the axes they were
using to chop away the wreckage
One passenger only was severely hurt
on the Royal Blue He was walking II
the aisle OF one of the cars when the
crash came, and the impact hurled him
up into the air and sidewise across the
heads of several persons in chairs and
then through a window. One of his
hands was cut and he was badly bruis-
ed He said he was a son of Johr
Wanamaker, of Philadelphia. He did
good work later on after his hand had
been bandaged.
A Wcstfeld doctor went into the
wreck and bandaged and treated the
injured even before they were releas-
ed. Some Of those he treated were
afterwards suffocated or burned tc
death.

rHR END NOT IN SIGHT YET.

No date is yet determined upon for
the concluding act Of the legislature.
There are complications that may detain
the members till June, but this is not
anticipated At the best possible guess
the time can scarcely be before May %
or "a, which will be early next week.
There are large number OF measures
yet unsettled that require careful con-
sideration. There are few conference
matters between the two houses delicate
to solve from Just and political stand
points. The most important Of these is
the ad valorem bill taxing railroads.
There is no disagreement on the subject
except the insistence Of the senate that
the stocks and bonds Of these public SER
vice corporations shall be exempt from
taxation II notes, mortgages, bank
stock and other evidences of indebted
ness are to be taxed then why in the
name of common sense should railroad
securities go exempt2 This is the plain
point de- manded on part of the assembly,
but the superior body only answers we
stand by the tax commission, right or
wrong The feeling is quite general
that the senate desires to assist the lobby
in defeating railroad legislation, and
takes this manner Of attempting to force
an unconstitutional and unjust measure
upon the assembly in hopes that that
body will kill it, expecting by this pro
cess to go before the people with the war
cry that the assembly defeated railroad
legislation Thus the senate hopes to
play politics at the expense Of the peo-
pie. But the treacherous senators will
deceive none except themselves.
Governor La Foil tie is making the
lobby endless anxiety with his special
messages. Friday morning he sent in
the fourth one. It's contents are to the
effect that If the railroads are compelled
TO pay higher tax stion under the pro-
posed ad valcrel system they will at
tempt to take from the people higher
freight rates if no control is exercised
over them as contemplated in the super
visory commission, which bill was last
week killed As proof Of this CT urge he
cites that the companies that recently
bid for the states coal supply placed in
their contracts a clause based on the
that freight rates of all
character win be advanced. The gov
eruor advises the Legislature to pass
law prohibiting the companies from rails
ing their tariffs higher than the maxi
mum schedules of last June. TIE as
sembly promptly introduced a bill look
ing to this end, but 1t is presumed the
superior body, the august senate, win
send 1t to ignominious death. 1t is com
plications If this grave character that

The Milwaukee Sentinel and Orlando
Burnett both pledged TO write any
