Two Thousand Persons Rend-

FORTY FAMILIES DRIVEN
FROM TENEMENT HOUSES
Fifty Horses Roasted to Death and
Property Valued at 100000 Des.

Buildings Uncurbed.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
New York, Jan. "A dozen persons
were injured, forty families were made
homeless, 1000 persons were driven
temporarily from their homes, fifty
horses were roasted to death, and
property valued at 100000 destroyed
today in the worst early morning fire
New York has seen in many months.
One big tenement house at 427 West
Fffty-third street and large board
ing stable at 429-431 Flfty-third street
were destroyed. Seven tenement
hou(ss at 426-434 West Fifty-third
street and 436 and 43S West Fifty
fourth street were badly damaged.
Lack Of adequate water pressure is
said to have been largely responsible
for the extent Of the fire. Had not one
of the big fire boats which drew its
water supply from the Hudson river
come to the rescue, the loss must have
been much greater.
One Of the worst features of the fire
was the tremendous crowd which
gathered in the streets around the
burning district, and the attendant
disorder and lawlessness. So great
was the crowd that all the police who
had been called to the scene had diff
Guilty in preserving anything like or
der In the streets, and for a time
thieves were given almost free hand
to loot the burning buildings.

NORTH AND SOUTH BOUND PASSENGER TRAINS IN TERRIFIC HEAD ON COLLISION

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Topeka, Kas., Jan. 2.-Between
twenty-five and thirty passengers.
mostly Mexlcans, were killed, and as
many more seriously injured in a
head end collision at 4:3O o'clock this
morning, five miles west of Alta Vista.
between passenger trains No. 20, south
bound and No. 80, north bound on the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific rail-
way.
The wrecked trains run between Ell
Pase and Chicago.
Most of the killed and injured were
on the south bound train. The cars
went into the ditch and several of
them caught fire. Many of the bodies
of victims were consumed by flames.
The injured are being brought to
Topeka on relief train. Early re-
ports stated that the collision was
caused by the carelessness of the
agent at Voland.
Most of the killed are believed to

be Mexican laborers who were in the
smoking car of No. 20. The baggage
car telescoped the smoker and crashed
down through the roof of the latter
car, crushing out the lives of the oc-
cupants, a majority of whom were
curled up in the seats asleep.
The cars caught fire soon after they
struck and five of those of No. 29 were
consumed by the flames. 1t is likely
that several bodies were burned to
ashes and it may be long time be-
fore complete list of the killed can
be learned.
Officials of the Rock Island in this
city at 9 o'clock this morning esti-
mated the number of dead at thirty
and the number of injured at forty.
At that hour ten bodies had been tax
en- from the ruins of the smoking car.
Nine of the bodies were those of Mexi-
cans and one was that of white man.
Train No. 20 bore the brunt of the
collision. The cars on No. 30 were not

seriously damaged and they were
made up into a train and sent on south
in place of the destroyed No. 20.
The blame for the collision seems
to rest upon John Lynes, telegraph
operator at Volland, who has disap-
peared. Orders had been issued for
No. 20 and No. 80 to pass at Volland.
These orders had been sent to the
operator at Volland, who was in
structed to hold No. 29 at that point.
1t is stated he for some reason failed
to deliver the order to the crew of
No. 20, and the latter train went by,
meeting No. 80 few miles west of
Volland.
Lynes fled before the wreck oc-
Cured, after first forecasting the i'm
pending collision. Five minutes be-
fore the trains met, he called up the
dispatcher and wired him as follows:
