west, a the second section OF q
through train from Baltimore. The
engineer of the freight train, No. SO,
on instructions received at McCool,
Ind, waited at a siding at Babcock,
Ind, to allow the emigrant train to
pass.
One report is that the engineer OF
the freight train had not been informed
that the passenger train was running
in two sections: the other is that the
first section of the passenger train
carried no lights or signals Of any
kind to indicate that a second section
was close behind.
AS soon as the first section OF the
emigrant train had passed the switch
at Babcock, the freight train, in
charge OF engineer Burke and Con.
ductor Moste, started eastward. A
light snow was falling, which in.
creased the darkness OF the early
morning, and as the freight was
rounding a sharp curve, just west of
Woodvile, the second section OF the
emigrant train came in sight, a short
distance away, tearing toward Chi.
cago at the rate OF 40 miles an hour.
The two trains came together with
unslackened speed and in the crash
six passenger coachss and several
freight cars were knocked into kind
ling wood, and together with the
locomotives, went rolling down the
lO.foot embankment. Fire broke out
instantly in the wreckage, and al.
though a number of injured were
saved by the desperate efforts Of the
train crew and surviving passengers,

pinned down in the debris we're burned

MANY ON THE LIST
Theatre Goers Express Their De-
sire to See Alberta GaIIatin

It is almose assured that Alberta
Gallatin in Cousin Kate" will be
seen in this city Friday, February =,
and for that all local lovers of drama
should bend their knees and give
thanks.
The spirit evidence yesterday IT,
ward the list which was circulated ny
Robert c. Mehaffey, one of the two
gentlemen representing the syndicate
owning the show, was in ull accord
with the general sentiment which
has been expressed Of late by the
people of this city and the general
wish that a good show would soon
grace the opera house with Its
presence. Without hardly a singlo
exception all of those to whom it was
presented signed their names for two
or more tickets, and Mr. Mehaffay
left the city yesterday Afternoon
highly satisfied with the reception he
had received.
In a city such as this one there
is but little or no amusement other
than the theatre, and when a first
class attraction does come it is more
than sure to be well patroniZe1.
There are often times, though, WhGn
attractions come here that are SUP
out to be not of the best order. n
that instance the blame is generally
laid on the local management of the
theatre, and wrongly, too. In many
instances the course of the company
owing to the cleverness of its manage
ment. in covering its tracks cannot
be traced, and therefore its WORTH
ness cannot be decided upon by thu
theatre manager. as has been the
case with some of the companies
appearing here this season, notwith
part to assure good attractions tC
his people. For those things the ma,
agement is not to be blamed.
In the instance Of Cousin Kate
though, the course OF the compan,
and the various dates it has playe
are as easily followed as Mai
street and personal guarantee on tn
part Of the management is a thin
to be accepted in the best faith i
the world, for, not only does the man
cement know it's worthiness, but ais
all the people of this city who ar
admirers of things high class i
theatricals, are fully acquainted wit
it's worth.

started by Mr.. Mehaffey yesterda
