ALLEGED WORK OF ROBBERS
PASSENGER TRAIN ON THE ROCK
ISLAND sDERAiLED NEAR
HOMESTEAD, IA.

Des Moines, March 22-Rock Island
officials say that the wreck of the
Rocky Mountain limited near Home
stead, Ia, early in the day was the
work of robbers, who succeeded in
escaping.
Six persons were injured in the
wreck, none fatally.
An examination of the track devel-
oped the fact that the. spikes for near
ly the length of a rail had been re-
moved.
The wreck occurred on a high en-
banklnent, the road being soft from
the thaws and rains. The two Denver
and Colorado sleepers landed in the
ditch on end, the embankment at that
point being about thirty-fve feet high.
The engine, mail car and composite
cars also went down the embankment.
The following message giving the
cause OF the disaster was telegraphed
from Homestead to Assistant General
Manager Hobbs in Chicago by the
division roadmaster:
The wreck was caused by an un-
known party removing spikes, bars
and angle bars and displacing the
rail. Spikes were removed from two
rails on the south side of the track.
The engine and first four cars were
thrown down thirty-fiye foot en-
banll1nent. The engine was completes
" stripped, the mail car destroyed,
the buffet car on its side and two
sleepers badly damaged

.FIFTY.FIVE BODIES ARE RECOVERED

Brockton, Mass, March 22.--Under
gloomy skies and with snow and rain
falling upon them searchers contin>
ued during the day to turn over the
cinders and charred timbers of the
Grover shoe factory in the effort to
find bodies of those who perished by
the terrible boiler explosion. The
work, which night had not been. suf-
fered to interrupt, was carried on with
greater celebrity after daylight and by
an increased force, but the results
seemed to indicate that few bodies re-
mained in the ruins.
Up to 2 o'clock only two additional
bodies had been found, bringing the
total number up to fifty y-fve. Of these
sixteen had been identified. A few
of the persons reported missing were
accounted for during the day, the list
OF employees heard from at noon num-
bering 253. There was still doubt as
to the exact n.mber of persons in the
factory at the time Of the explosion
and until this question is settled by
an examination Of the books in the
factory vault more definite estimate
OF the number lost cannot be made.
Bodies Reduced to Ashes.
Medical Examiner Payne, who has
been at the ruins Of the factory almost
continually, said he was convinced
that nothing but ashes remain of many
of the operatives who were caught in
the factory, SO that undoubtedly many
victims never will be accounted for.
The fingers of many of the victims
laid out at the morgue are worn down
to the second joints, indicating des-
perate efforts to release fettered limbs
before the onward rush of flames
reached the victim.
When the boiler ploughed its way
upward through the factory many op-
eratiyes were blown to pieces, it is
believed, and this is offered as ac-
counting in part for the discrepancy
between the number of bodies recov-
cred from the ruins and the number
reported missing.
At the Rrockton city hospital and
the relief hospital it is reported that
all of the injured passed fairly com
Portable night and are doing as we'll
as could be expected.

Paris, March 22.--The chamber of

on the governments bill providing for

COMMITS SUICIDE AT SEA.
Son of Philadelphia Millionaire Jumps
Overheard.

New York, March 22.-Andrew NJ.
Griscom of Philadelphia, who disap-
peared from Philadelphia several
weeks ago and was supposed to be in
Europe, committed suicide March 19
by jumping overheard at sea from the
steamer Minnetonka. Griscom sailed
on the Minnetonka from London for
this city. Griscon1 was a member of
a we'll known Philadelphia family.
Philadelphia, March 2ss,.-Andrew M
Griscom was the son of w. NJ Girls
com, millionaire resident Of Bryn
Mawr, a suburb. Young Griscom, who
was student at the University of
Pennsylvania, left his clearinghouse
during the first week in February and
was not heard from until Feb. 9, when
he visited the New York Office of the
Reading Hardware company, of which
his father is one of the owners. The
boy made request for money and
his father upon being communicated
with ordered that his son be supplied
funds. Nothing further was heard of
Andrew until Feb. 20, when it was
learned that he had sailed for Europe.
Later it was learned that Elsie Han
som, who had been a governess in the
Griscom family: had preceded young
Griscom and there were rumors of a
contemplated elopement but this was
subsequently denied. When Grisconl' S
father learned that his son was in Eu-
rope he sent a friend to bring the boy
home and it is supposed that he was
accompanying this man on the Mime
tonka.
