baby was crying bitterly and the mother
was %sobbing. "Oh, sir" she said, cant

The conductor took her in and before
the home street was reached the baby

THAT was a pretty baby" said the con-

rapidly as the car went on. They tell
me there is no place so full of disap-
pointment as a baby show"

comes only to one thoroughly versed in that
accomplishment.

ULAMESTHE CREW FOR WRECK
]. George Young Says Freight Mer
Were Responsible.
TRAIN sTAm ON THE MAIN LINE
n. u. RInEwsIt, who Was ON Pss-en'
ger and HSrt, Gives
Of the Accident a. He
Felt IL.

"The Thurston wreck on the Omaha rail-
road Friday evening, in which one man was
killed and a number injured, was entirely
due to the negligence of the crew OF the
freight train. according to my opinion and
information on the matter"
This statement was made Saturday morn
ing by J. George Young. of the National
Investment company Of this city. who was
on the passenger train that collided with
the freight and who went TO the engine
with a st. Paul man after the smashup,
saw the whole situation and assisted the
injured engineer and others.
From what I saw, I think the fireman,
who had sole control of the freight while
other members OF the crew were in Thurs
ton for supper, had proceeded north on
the main line past the siding, instead of
running in on the siding, as he was sup
posed to do. l think he did this in order
to save a brakeman in the caboose the
trouble OF walking the whole length Of the
train to throw the switch and let the string
Of cars onto the siding. The train was
supposed to enter the siding at the south
end. but from the way the switches at
both ends were set, failed to do so. The
main line was entirely open for the pas
senger train. and yet the headlight CT the
freight had been blinded as a signal that
the freight was on the siding"
According to a statement made by Engi.
neer James NcClair Of the passenger train
when Mr.. Young and other men helped
him down from the top of the tender
where he had been thrown by the force Of
the impact. the last words of Fireman
George A.. stauffer, who was instantly
killed. were:

on the main line.
Headlight IL Blinded.

1t is thought that the wreck would never
have occurred IL the headlight of the
freight had not been blinded.
TIN story Of the freight crew is to the
effect that its train had been run through
the siding and out again -ento the main
line because the slippery rails made the
brakes useless. However. the statements
of Mr.. Young and other men who saw the
situation Immediately after the headon col
lision and took pains to ascertain the cause
OF the wreck, the rails of the siding had
not been passed over by a train before the
accident, both switches to the siding were
set for the main line train so that IL could
pass without entering the siding, and the
end OF the freight train had not yet reached
the north switch which, 1t is thought, the
rear brakeman intended to throw and let
his train in at the wrong end by backing
in, thus saving himself a walk.
Conductor George c.. Young of the pas
senger was not injured. early reports say
ing that he had been badly bruised having
arisen only through the hysterical condition
OF his wife, who was on the train and
could not find her husband.
r.. r. Ringwalt, western agent of the
Empire line, Pennsylvania railroad. who
was on the passenger coming to Omaha.
was thrown violently from his seat and had
his right eye barely escape being destroyed
by having the lenses of his spectacles
break. AS 1t was, Mr.. Ringwalt will wear
a bandage over the eye for some time but
The will not lose the sight of the optic, the
broken crystal not entering the eyeball,
I'VE were just entering the Thurston
yards said Mr.. Ringwalt, when suddenly
the airbrakes were set and almost imme-
diately afterward everybody in the coach
and every loose article, suit case and grip,
were thrown toward the front end in con-
fusion. Many persons were injured slightly
like myself and a few seriously. The brake
man, who was just opening his mouth to
announce the next stop, was thrown against
the door and had his head and shoulders
forced through the heavy plate glass.
For some time there was great confusion
and dire .maginings OF what deaths might
have resulted. but when the facts became
known, 1t was remarked on all sides thai
a wonderful escape from a much more ter.
rible catastrophe had been our lot. If the
engineer of the passenger had not set hi,
brakes when he did, the loss of life ant
damage to property would have beer
frightful."
