Wednesday will be fair except along
the lower Lake and north New Eng
land. where snow fiurries are probable.
The temperature will be lower in the

CITY. No, who is anxious to remove
her daughter. a former school teacher,
from the influence of the Holy Ghost

unable to 90 so by persuasion or other
means, resulted in a decision to circu-
late petitions in Portland and other
cities Of Maine asking Governor Cobb
to find some way in which crucltics
and sufferings alleged to exist al Shi-
loh may be eliminated.
It is realized that there is no legal
process by which Miss Phelps may be
removed, except possibly to prove she
is insane and have her confined tC
the State insane asylum with a sister
who was taken there a raving maniac
two or three months ago. Mrs. Phelps
did not wish To take this step.
1t is suggested that if nothing is &C
cumplished by tine petitions, the mat
ter will be taken to the Maine Icgis-
laiurr this winter and an attempt vii
be made to secure the passage of leg

small waterway about one mile out
Of this city. just on the eastern edge
Of the meadows. and was directly due
to the draw failing to work properly.
The fishing schooner Sinbad which
was recently wrecked off Winter Quar-
ter shoals light, short distance from
the Delaware Breakwater had just
pa sSed through the drawbridge. As
the schooner was entering the draw.
the electric train hove in sight ami
started across the meadow from the
direction Of Pleasantville. Before the
draw had swung into position the
three cars. which We're running at e
high rate of speed, dashed onto the
trestle. With a iurch. the forward
car left the rails and dashed into the
guard rail the other two cars follow
ing. At the point where the cars
jumped the track. the top Of the
trestle is nearly twenty feet high. Had
the cars been open. ii is doubtful l.
many of the passengers would have es-
capped because they must have been
stunned by the dive from the trestle.
The first two cars We're instantly sub
merged but the third car Of the train
caught on an abutment and remained
suspended. 1t was this car from.
which nearly all OF the injured cs-
capped.
Tho news of the awful disaster was
quickly tclegranhcd to this city and In
less than an hour the work of rescus
had been begun. At the time Of tho
accident, the tide which rises about ten
feet. was running in and the work of
the divers was necessarily slow. 1t
was not until several hours later that
the divers were able to make any pro-
gross. Then the awful evidence of the
disaster became more apparent. When
the two cars struck the bottom of the
waterway. they stood almost on end
| and the first man to descend reported
that the victims were packed in the
lower ends of the submerged cars 50
| tightly that it was difficult to move
them.
He said the sight was q sickening
| one. The bodies Of men, women and
| children. many of them badly cut and
| bruised, bore grim proof of the terrible
sufferinGs of the victims. Faces were
distorted and clothes torn during the
| brief agOnies which the victims must
have endured. One by one, the bodies
were carried to the waiting train, and
| laid side by side. later to be borne to
this city and placed in the old Empire
Theatre, which was pressed into SER
vice as a temporary morgue.
Thousands Of persons quickly gather

score Of boats soon surrounded the spot
where the cars disappeared. but they

After the forward car Of the two sub
merged coaches had been brought to
the surface and the divers who had
been at work On the wreckage all day
had made a final examination Of the
second car without finding any more
bodies. Mir. Atterbury, who. with sew
eral Of his assistants. had been on the
scene since Sunday night, expressed
his belief that the total number Of dead
would not exceed 50.
"Therc is a bare possibility that one
