PdrhdmiteS Tried to Drive
EVIL Spirits of Illness
From Her Body.
SHE DIED UNDER THEIR
HEROIC TREATMENT

Chicago. ILL.,, Sept. 20.-Flve per-
sons, members of the sect of Parha-
mites, are under arrest in Zion City
accused of torturing to death Mrs.
Letitia Greenhaulgh. aged slxtyfour,
cripple for the past twenty years.
in showing their belief in the religion
they profess. Those arrested are
son and a daughter of the deceased
and three others. The Parhamites
believe that sickness is an evidence
of the possession Of the body by evil
spirits and the accused determined
to exercise the evil spirit from Mrs.
Greenhaulgh. They worked over her
for hours, twisting her limbs and
neck. She died under this treatment
after enduring great agony.
Protest Their Innocence.
The son and daughter of the dead
woman protest their innocence of any
intention TO harm her and insist that
they did their best to alleviate her
pain by driving out the spirits which
infested her body but which were too
firmly imbedded for their efforts.
They refused to secure medical or
surgical attendance for her and when
neighbors insisted that a physician

have been watching for an opporun-
ity to put an end to this practice
among the Parhamites. which they
believe has been the cause Of a num-
Der OF deaths among the enthusiasts
but up TO the present time, have been
unable to secure evidence. They be-
lieve now that they have sufficient
evidence to convict.

Ell Paso, Texas, Sept. 20.-Forty
persons were killed and thirty-four
injured in a collision yesterday even
ing at Enearnacion de Dies, fifty
kilometres south of Aguas Calenties.
between the southbound FL Paso ex-
press and a northbound freight on
the Mexican Central railroad. All
the killed and injured except Engi-
neer Mcfarland are Mexicans who
were in the day coaches, which we're
filled with people returning home
from the national fiestas. The trains
met on a curve. The freight crew,
who are charged with disregarding
orders, have disappeared and are
said TO be trying to escape from the
country.
Traimen to Blame.
This wreck was the worst In the
history of Mexicos railroads, and
the government has already begun a
stringent investigation into its cause.
1t is said that the freight crew be-
lieved that there was sufficient time
for the freight train to make a sid
ing nine miles away and toward
which the passenger was speeding
from the south. The freight pulled
out and when only a few miles were
travelled, the passenger train was
seen tearing down toward the freight.
Unable to avert the wreck, the en-
ginemen leaped and fed Immediately,
while the conductor and brakmen
also disappeared.
Scene was Awful.
Scenes around the wreck were aw-
full. The two heavy engines met at
almost full speed, neither engineer
having seen the other in time to do
more than throw on the air and at
tempt to stop. The passenger en-
gine being the lighter, was thrown
into the air, falling on top of the
freight locomotive, which tore on,
pushed by its heavy train, through
the mail and baggage cars into the
cars and day coaches were reduced
to kindling and dead bodies were
thrown in every direction.
Hundreds Were Unconscious.
