Out in the Wreckage and the I'm.
prisoned Passengers Meet a Ter
rible Death by Cremation.
Harrisburg, Pa, May 11.-Twenty
persons are believed to have been
killed and approximately 100 injured
by the wrecking of the Cleveland and
Cincinnati express, westbound, on the
Pennsylvania railroad, which dashed
into a wrecked eastbound freight train,
exploding a car filled with $4,000
pounds of blasting powder. The
wreck occurred in the southern part
of Harrisburg at LAO a. M. 1t was
one Of the most terrible disasters ever
experienced by the Pennsylvania rail-
road.
The primary cause of the wreck
vas a shifting engine. 1t was going
west slowly when the engineer of the
eastbound freight train saw it coming
on his track. He applied the airbrakes
suddenly, which caused the middle of
the freight train to buckle, showing
several of the cars onto the westbound
roccnr fro n1y r,Nropt 1ofor tho
express, one of the fastest night trains
on the road, came along and dashed
into the wrecked cars. The next in
slant the boiler of the passenger loco
motive exploded. The wreck took fire
and those who escaped began the work
of rescue. Six minutes after the eX-
press struck the freight wreck. the
railroad men say, the flames reached
the car filed with powder. There was
a flash and a %deafening roar. The
earth trembled as though some terrible
seismic disturbance had occurred. All
who were not killed and injured by
the explosion fled from the awful
scene.
Wreckage a Mass of Flames.
The entire wreckage became a mass
Of flames and small boxes of powder
that had not exploded "let go" con
Mpuously. While these explosions con-
tinued men who had bravely gone to
the rescue before the first explosion
did not dare to approach the burning
wreck, though they could hear the
agonized shrieks of the dying.
Flames began their cruel feast of
human bodies that were h%elplessly
pinned in the wreckage. An alarm of
fire was turned in and when the fire.
men arrived it was impossible for
them to go closer than 800 yards of the
fire until the explosions ceased. Then
the intense heat interfered with the
work of rescue. Men of the boldest
nerve were forced to retire with singed
hair, blistered faces and burning cloth
ing when they attempted to respond to
the piteous cries for help. Those who
escaped by leaping and crawling
through windows, in scant attire, from
their sleeping a berths, hurried to
the open fields, where they were gath

and workshops of the Paxtang Elec-
trio Light company and other indus
trial plants, which were quickly trans
formed into temporary hospitals and
later into morgues.
Victims of the disaster were burned
to a crisp. So completely incinerated
were the bodies that only four Of those
recovered could be identified.

STRENGTH OF OUR RICH MEN.
English Writer Advances Somewhat
Novel Argument.

An English writer In discussing
THE Psychology OF the American Mil
lionaIre" has this 10 say: "He is apt
TO combine the ethics OF an alligator
with the creed OF a member OF the Y.
Nj. G. A. And II Is this combination
that makes him far more formidable
than our own skeptlcal and cynical
cosmopolitan mlllionaires, who feel
that there can be no righteousness In
providence under which they pros
per. The American millionaire gets
his strength from a simple and inner
tied pastoral morality, and he uses
that strength TO overcome the corrupt
inhabitants OF cities with their own
weapons. Cynics. diabolists, haters OF
their own kind. are always weakened
by the fact that their faith, however
furlously they may hold II, is negative
and based on doubt. Rockefeller's
faith Is positive and preserves him
from all doubts and scruples. Now
that he is rich beyond all precedent
his wealth, no doubt, seems a proof
that his way OF life is agreeable to
benehcent Providence"
