the. shattered ears of both trains. In the
forward coach of the 'westbound every

OF whom were homeSeellerS. A number
OF foreigners were among them, and in
their terror they gave up life without

TWENTY -ONE~ PEOPLE ---'.. .....-. .--
BURNED IN TRAIN WRECK
Head-on Collision of Two Trains on the Denver
and Rio Grande During a S1owstorm-
Signal Operator Asleep.

Pueblo, Col, (Special)-Some two
score lives were crushed out in head
on collision of two passenger trains
near Adobe. Col, on the Denver and
Rio Grande Railroad, and more than a
score of the victims we're incinerated be-
yond identification by fire that destroy
ed the wrecked coaches. More than a
score were injured, but all will probably
recover.
The reck was due to undelivered or
ders, heavy mountain grades, binding
snowstorm, sharp curve and the slip
perry condition of the rails. Only the
locomotive, baggage and day coaches
were wrecked, the sleeping cars escap-
ing almost unscathed, as in the Eden
disaster on the same road in 1904, when
part of a train ran into flooded canyon
through a washed-out bridge.
Many of the dead were homeseekers
bound for the Northwest. The. three
crushed locomotives set fire to the splin-
tered. coaches, and it was hours before
all the bodies were recovered, the flames
being so hot that rescuerS could not ap-
proach the debris until the fuel burned
out
. 1t was wild, stormy night in the
mountain canyons when the two heavy
trains met. Binding snow .Adarkened
the rocky gorges and speed was not
high.
Suddenly headlights flashed out, and it
wasvrealized by the engineers that some
thing was wrong. According to Fireman
J. II. Smith, Of the westbound train,
Engineer Walter Coslett applied the
emergency brake, but the slippery sails
allowed the momentum of the heavy train
to carry it on to the fatal crash.
The impact was scarcely noticeable,
but the trains crushed and ground into
each other. The helper engine of the
westbound train acted as a cushion,
minimizing the force and weight of the
heavy mountain engines. This helper
was crushed together like so much pa
per and the larger locomotives ran
through the mesh of iron and plowed
each other TO pieces. :. .:
Fireman Smith was the only one of the
engine crews to escape. The baggage
car of the westbound train broke in two
and three coaches were squeezed .togeths
er. The baggage car, the mail car. and
a coach of the eastbound train buclled.
