this charge against me until May of this year. almost the eleventh sn- niversary of our marriage. All this time we lived happily, I helping him and he helping me.
 She Refuses to Tell.
 Notwithstanding this statement, Mrs Leakin injects more mystery into the ease by refusing to state whether she is man or a woman. Mrs. Leak in is tall and slim. Her shoulders are broad Her hands are large and strong. Strength is the dominant char acteristic of her features. Her nose is masculine, but her eyes are soft and dark and she has gentk voice. Her denials were punctuated by tears and laughter. although at no time did she appear to look upon the charges made by her husband as at all hum orous.
 The little children in the nighbor- hood all seem to love her. Most of them called her "auntie'' The couple have no children. Mrs. Leakin says that her life has been too hard and that her husband and herself have striven so faithfully at money-making that they have had no time to rear little ones.
 She tries to explain his strange charge by saving that he must have come under the influence of some younger woman, and adds that if he does not come back to her she will care no longer to live. Voluble on ev- cry subject, this strange character re- fuses to answer only the explicit ques- ton:
 Are you a man or are you a wo- man?''
 She just looks at one pathetieally when this query is put to her.
 There is no indeeision in the speech of Mir. Leakin when he discusses the matter.
 Husband Is Emphatic.
 "Do you mean to say that your wife is actually man?'' he was asked.
 ''Sure; I say so to the lawyers, was the response.
 "'Why did you not bring this charge eleven years ago?'' he was asked.
 ''I will tell that to the court" was his reply. ''I was imposed upon. l felt a great deal of pity for her, and only lately did I realize that was a fool.
 Leakin has not a single word of re- proaeh for the wife who has so long borne his name
 "When did you first discover that your wife was man?" he was asked.
 "Oh. just little while ago." he re- piled; ''I shall tell that to the court. "
 He Fears Derision.
 Leakin said he would rather have loSt ms DuSlnesS, or, TOT that matter, his life, than have his friends know what a fool he had been for eleven years.
 ''I knew my wife two years before I married her," he said. "We played together as children, and she was one of the prettiest little girls, I thought, in the town of Osta. She grew up to be big and strong, and could carry more coal than I could. She was al- ways kind and gentle, and no one ever that she was not a woman.
 ''I have not now a word to say against my wife, except that she is no woman.
 ''I married man, not a woman."

There are various stories of how the
wreck occurred, but the official version
Is as follows.
Story of the Wreck.
About 1.40 o'clock the engine on an
CdStbound freight train was f1agg7d
by the crew Of q shifting engine ahead
OF the same track. The engineer quick
" put on his air brakes and the train,
an unusually long one, came TO d sud
den stop The strain on the air valves
was a severe one. and a connecting air
hose in the middle OF the train blew
out This caused the middle of the
train 10 buckle" and the damaged
cars fell over ON the passenger tracks.
Terrific Explosion.
Just as this happened the Cleveland
express came laundering up and side
swiped' the wreck The express was
opposite the wrecked car. Before any
one could leave the passenger train.

Jnen tneTe was one great fash and roar
that shook the earth. The whole af-
fair occurred within period of a few
seconds.
Scene of Horror.
A scene of horror followed the ex-
plOsiOu Of the dynamite The passen-
ger cars and some of the freight cars
instantly took fire. As the reverbera-
ton of the terrific explosion died away
across the SUsqUehanna river, the
agonizing cries of the injured could be
heard Men and women came tunb-
ling and climbing from the car windows
and cTawled from under the wreckage.
Dared Not Go Near.
Shortly afterward another explosion
occurred. Fearing that the entire
freight train might be loaded with dyn-
amite, no one dared go near the wreck
Finally the railroad men who knew
the contents Of the burned freight train
led the way and the uuinjured passen-
gers followed.
Scores of those who were trapped in
their sleeping berths or piuioned under
wreckage were taken out and laid in
the field badly hurt
Cries Were Heart-Rending.
The advancing of the fire drove the
reScUers back as they were about to
take others from the wreck and the
unfOrtunates men and women, were
soon enVelOped in the flames. The cries
Of the dying were heaTt-Tending, but
nothing could be done for them.
An alarm of fire was sent in, but
when the fremen reached the scene
the flames had done their work The
entire train was consumed
Rescuing the Injured.
With the dremen came a corps Of
physicians from the CITY As quickly
as the injured were temporarily re
lieved of pain, they were placed on
special trains and trollzy cars and
hurried to the hospital here.
Several hundred railroad laborers
were on the spot within an hour and by
daylight their number had been in
creased TO a thousand. Not one whole
body was found in the wreck. Either
an arm or "a leg or all four limbs were
buried off the trunk and in several
cases only portions of the trunks were
found Ten charred bodies were found
under one Pullman car 1t is the belief
of the railroad officials that if the ex-
plosion had not occurred there would
have been no loss Of life.
