victims of Mondays wreck of the
Oriental Limited near Bartlett was
woman: Portions of her body are be-
ing held here for the inquest. In this
connection it is stated that there was
a woman in the front end of the smok-
er and that she had three or four
small children with her. These latter
have not been located and it Is be-
lieved and currently reported that
they, too, perished. This could easily
be true for the smoker was piled up
In such an indiscriminate mass and
burned so quickly after the accident
that no one will ever be able to tell
positively how many of it's occupants
were killed and burned. The bodies
of six victims are here, making the
known dead, with Mail Clerk Jones,
seven.
DR.. Cowper. the coroner, is expected
here from Michigan this afternoon or
tonight, and in that event the inquest
will begin tomorrow.
The scene of the wreck is now clear,
though twisted iron and charred tim
bers remain in sufficient quantity to
mark the site of this, one of the worst
wrecks the Great Northern has ex-
perienced in years.
