An excursion train from Hoboken to

The train consisted of twelve cars
and two engines. The first engine had
taken water and the train had moved
up and stopped with the second engine
beside the water tank when the flag
man OF the special signaled the en-,
gineer OF the oncoming train, but, ow
ing to a curve In the road, his flag was
not seen until too late. lit is claimed
that the engineer of the regular train
had slowed down to about ten miles an
hour before he crashed into the special,

drove the forward end of that car
into the car ahead The killed and
injured were In these two cars.
Fortunately the wreckage did not
catch fire, and the work of taking out
the dead and MANNED was accom-
plished quickly.

coaches ran back and joined in the
work, and the residents of Midvale
many of whom had heard the crash,
assisted them.
The engineer and fireman Of the reg
ular train disappeared from the scene

capped injury by jumping just before
the crash.
The operator in the tower was Wal
ter Richards. He would make no state
ment and was relieved and left the
scene soon after the accident.
A great crowd remained at the scene
many Of whom were passengers seek,
ing information regarding relatives and
friends on the train.
During the excitement Immediately
after the accident a woman gave birth
to q child In one of the cars, after she
had learned that her husband and one
of her children were among the injured

CREATED NO ExCITEMENT.

London, July 11.-The attempt Of
the London Daily Express to revive
the bogey of possible Russian inva-

bled to the Associated Press early this
morning. has not created n ripple of
excitement Even il the document is
authentic it is recognized that it will
not give the slightest cause for alarm,
1t is pointed out that the whole
ascheme las published is of so academic

the nature Of direct menace therein.
Probably the pigeonholes of all the

similar plans. providing for theoTetic
