THIRTY KILLED AND FORTY INJURED
MANY OF THE VICTIMS PINNED

Topeka, Kan, Jan. 3.-One of the
most disastrous wrecks in the history
of the Rock Island railway system oc.
Cured near Alta Vista, fifty miles
west of Topeka, when passenger trail
No. 20, southbound, and No. 80, north.
bound, collided headon while travelling
at high rate of speed. The brunt
of the collision was sustained by No.
20, which was heavily laden with pas
lsengers. The cars on this train went
into the ditch and several of them
caught fire and were consumed. Close
to thirty persons, mostly Mexican Ia
iborers in the smoking car on No. 20,
lost their lives. Many of them, pin
Toned in the Wreckage, were burned to
death and only their ashes remain.
Forty persons were injured. Twelve
of the injured were seriously hurt and
it is believed that half of these will
die. The Mexicans were en- route to-,
Ell Paso to work for the Rock Island
railroad. But few persons on train
mo. 80 were seriously injured. The
cars on this train were not badly
damaged.
But few trainmen were injured. Tho
engineers and firemen Of both trains
and most of the trainmen jumped in
time to save themselves
Twenty-eight injured, many of them
Mexicans, were brought to Topeka.
Twelve bodies were left at Alma.
Telegraph Operator Responsible.
Blame for the collision seems to
rest upon John Lynes, the telegraph
operator at Volland, who disappeared
but was captured later. 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 instructed to hold No. 20 at
that point. It 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 a few miles
west of Volland.
Lynes fed 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:
NO 20 has gone and have gone
also.'
Then he left his key. Even with
this dispatch in hand there was no
possible way Of preventing the wreck.
Both trains were heavy ones, having
ten cars each, including Pullman
sleepers and tourists, chair cars and
coaches, smokers and baggage cars.
No. 20 was crowded to the doors with
passengers, but the number of travel
ers on No. 80 was not large
An interpreter for the Mexicans
was questioned as he lay slowly burn
ing to death under the wreckage. He
said there were twenty-five Mexicans
in their party going from Kansas City
to 81 Paso to work The most of
these were burned to death. Soon
after giving this information the inter-
prefer himself succumed to the flames

INDUSTRIAL CRISIS IMMINENT.
Opinion of J. stuyvesant Fish, New
York. Einancier.

7 Orkt FlnanCieF.
5 New York.. Jan. .-Stuyvesant Fish,
in a statement written for the Journal
of Commerce, declares a great indus
trial crisis is due and there are many
indications of it's being imminent.
Despite the unprecedented output
of gold,' Mr.. Fish writes, money is
dear the world over and dear because
of high prices and activity in trade"
Other causes for dear money are
found in the fact that Great Britain
has not fully made up it's losses in
the Boer war; that Japan and Russia,
particularly the latter, have scarcely
begun to recover from the effects of
their war and that within the past
year there have been tremendous
losses of capital due to the calamities
in San Francisco and Valparaiso.
Turning to our own country, Mr..
Fish writes that New York, especially
that part Of it known as wall street.
has absorbed and Is absorbing more
than it's share of the loanable funds.
