Pueblo, Colo, March 17-About
forty charred bodies lie in the ruins
" the two passenger trains on the
Denver and Rio Grande railroad which
were wrecked by headon collision at
point between Denver and Adobe,
about twenty eight miles west of Pu-
sblo. Part of both trains was burned.
Fifteen persons severely injured in
the disaster are lying on cots at st.
Eary's hospital in this city with the
prospect that some of them will be
added to the death list.
Eastbound passenger train No 16

train No. 8, telescoping the forward
cars on each train. The coaches at
pleted the horror begun by the col
lsion.
Some OF the victims were pinioned
under the wreckage and burned alive
before help could reach them. Most
of the injured were on No. 3, which
was heavily loaded. No. 16 carried
comparatively few passengers and
these escaped generally with slight
shaking up. One man whose name
could not be learned was the only ore

Relief trains were at once dis
patched to the scene from Pueblo and
Florence, but the work was neces-

the burning wreck and because OF the
cold weather.

Hairbreadth escapes from the snow

are entertained for scores Of daring
prospectors and miners who are cut
of from the outside world in their
lonely cabins far up in the hills.

HAS LONG INTERVIEW WITH TAFT

Washington, March 17-Secretary
Taft was in consultation with Presi
dent Roosevelt for some time during
the morning. No decision has been
reached regarding his acceptance of a
place on the supreme court bench and
! probably none will be reached for
some time.
President Roosevelt later author
lied the issuance of the following
statement regarding the successor OF
Justice Brown in the supreme court OF
the United States:
"As Mr. Justice Brown will not re-
tire until June, when the supreme
court will take a vacation until the
second Monday in October and no pub
lie inconvenience can arise from a
vacancy continuing through the vaca-
ton the president will take further
time to decide the question of Mr.
Justice Browns successor. Several
names, including that of Secretary
Taft, have been under consideration,
but no decision has been reached or
is likely to be reached or announced
In the near future"
Secretary Taft went to the war de-
partment for a few moments before
the meeting OF the cabinet. When
asked his intentions he directed his
inquirers to the statement issued from
the White House saying that that was
the expression Of the presidents views
and that his (Tafts) lips were sealed
all that he could say was that the mat
ter was indefinitely postponed,

the heat was too intense. He slowly
roasted to death before the eyes Of the
crowd around the burning wreck.
Collision Occurred on a Curve.
The place where the trains came to-
gether was near mile post 147 The
trains were rounding a sharp curve
around high bluff. 1t was impossi.
BILE for the engineer OF either train to
see the other until the two trains
were within about 200 yards OF each
other. At this point the Santa Fe and
Denver and Rio Grande tracks run
close together and 1t was easy for the
enginemen to suppose that the oncom-
ing train was on the Santa Fe track.
According to the first orders the
trains were supposed to meet at Adobe,
one-haf mile from the scene Of the
wreck. At Florence No. 16 received
orders to meet No. 3 at Dover, five
miles east of Portland. It Is supposed
No. was to have been given similar
orders at Swallows, but failing to re-
ceive them ran on to Adobe.
The first four coaches OF train No.
3 were piled up, the greatest damage
being done in the forward coach. It
was here that the worst havoc was
wrought Hardly a person In this
coach escaped with his life.
A majority of the bodies caught by
the fire were reduced to a crisp. J.

only passengers in this coach who are
known to have escaped, both sustain
