UNSOLVED MYSTERY
Engineer Had Plain Orders
as to Meeting Place But
Rushed on to Disaster.
Scenes Appalling and
Heartrending.

One of the worst disasters in the
history of southern railroading occur
red on the Knoxville division of the
Southern railway Saturday morning.
Two trains carrying heavy lists o1
passengers came together in fright
full head-end collision near Hodges,
Tenn, sending ffty-four people to
death and injuring 12O, several OF
whom died on the relief trains and N
the Knoxville hospital, swelling the
list to sixty-two.
This appalling loss of life and maim-
ing of the living resulted apparently
from the disregarding of orders given
to the two trains to meet at sta
ton which has for long time been
their regular meeting point. The claim
of failure to see either the station or
signals could not be set up by the en-
pineer Of the westbound train were ne
alive to enter plea of defense, as the
accident happened in broad daylight
and according to the best information
obtainable he had the orders in lit
tie frame in front Of him as his mon
ster of iron and steel rushed by New
Market and soon after came upon an
eastbound passenger train making for
New Market, in compliance with in
structions, to meet the westbound
train which carried the sleepers from
the east for Knoxville, Chattanooga
and other southern cities.
The possibility exists that the IL
fated engineer. may have been asleep
or that sudden death had taken the
sight from his eyes before New Mar
ket was reached. But nothing IS
known, save that the orders were not
obeyed. The trains were on time and
not making over thirty-fve miles an
hour, yet the impact as they rounded
q curve and came suddenly upon each
other was frightful. Both engines and
the major portions of both trains-We;e
demolished, and why the orders were
disregarded or nisinterpreted proba-
tbly will never be known, as the engln-
eers of the two trains were crushed,
their bodies remaining for hours un
der the wreckage Of the monster loco
motives.
The trains were turning sharp
curve when they met, and the west
bound train seemed to jump over the
engine Of the eastbound train. TWO
day coaches were crushed on the east
bound train. between, the, baggage car
and sleepers. In one coach only one
person escaped with his life.
The collision occurred about / IL
miles west Of Hodges Station, and 1S
miles east Of Knoxville.
At 9 o'clock Saturday night it was
known that fifty-nine lives had been
lost and 120 persons injured, accord
ing to reports at the Knoxville hospl-
AL. to which institution all the serious
,1y injured were taken. Workers at the
scene Of the wreck had at that hour
recovered all the bodies except those
of the enginemen and the passengers
whose lives were crushed out IN the
smoker of the eastbound train.
The collision occurred between east
bound passenger No. IL and west
bound passenger No. Is, from Bristol.
No. IL was heavy train, carrying
