TWO ARE KILLED IN
HEAD-ON COLLISION
The Dead Were Among Members Of
Train CreWs-Passengers Not
Badly Hurt.

Donaldsonville, La, December 1.-Two
persons were killed and two seriously In
jured today in a head-on collision be-
tween a passenger and freight train at
a long curve near here on the Texas and
Pacific railroad. All the fatalities were
among members of the train crews, no
passengers being seriously hurt
The dead: B. d. Allen, carrier, res
idence unknown. One negro hobo, namo
unknown.
The wrecked passenger train was tins
Cannon ball express. The egineers and
firemen of both trains saw the approach
ing collision in time to escape by jumping
from their cars. Scarcely had the engines
crashed together when the boiler of the
freight blew up, scattering boiling water
and bits of iron and adding to the terror
of the express passengers.
The loss of life so far ascertained was
confined to the passenger train, those in
the mail and express cars suffering most.
Both of those seriously injured were negro
messengers. Many of the passengers were
painfully bruised, injuries about the head
being especially frequent from the force
with which We're dashed forward upon the
car floors and over seats
The wreck occurred at a lonely point
on the road, a plantation being the only
human habitation in the neighborhood.
