either in siaterooms or saloon, and
for nearly an hour the pungent vapor
had full charge of the China's first
class passenger quarters on the main
deck.
The accident occurred about s
o'clock. The China had so many pas
sengers on board that breakfast was
served in two sections. The first sec
ton was wrestling with it's mush and
milk when the pipe broke, and the
second section was dressing or still
slumbering. Ammonia gas is exceed
ingly volatile, and almost simultane-
ously with the bursting of the pipe
came the screams of women and chill
den, who suddenly found themselves
in the grip of an unseen enemy that
clutched with relentless fury at wine
pipes. From one room a woman, m-
conscious, and three screaming chill
dren were dragged, and by the time
they reached the saloon entrance pam
demonium had turned loose there. The
rush of vapor filled the big dining
hall and, table manners were forgot

panion-way leading 70 the upper
deck.
While the breakfast party was
climbing to the fresh air, the ships
officers were dragging women and
children from the staterooms and
helping them on deck, where, in rec
ord time, the whole company Of pas
sengers was soon mustered.
Meanwhile, the engineers had shut
off the flow of ammonia, and by 3
o'clock the air in the saloon was suf-
ficiently cleared for those who felt
like it to resume the suddenly aban-
doned breakfast
Among the women passengers were
two who did not lose their heads, and
who rendered valuable service in al
laying the panic, particularly among
the children, of whom there were 80
on board. These heroines of the Chi
mas ammonia panic were Mrs. John
Brooks, sister in law of the governor
of Wyoming, and Miss c. Disbrow, a
Montana girl, who has been in ia
pan teaching the children of Ameri-
can residents how to speak French.

with which they were dragged into

day before. To make matters worse, a

FROM WIS. FOR WEDDING
Justice Townsley of Gary.
Oficiates at Nuptial
Ceremonies.

Gary's famous bridal tower in the
Schiltz building was the scene Saturday
evening of pretty little wedding, in
which A. ]. DeFrang and Lena Fensiv
of Kenosha, wis, were the principals.
The bridal tower is the office Of Judge
H. A. Townsley, located in the tower
of the Schlitz building.
The reason ascribed by the couple
coming such long distance to be mar
ried is that they wished to be married
in the city where Mr.. Mathew DeFrang,
the groom's brother resides. When
asked If an elopement had taf1en place
friends of the couple emphatica1ly de-
MED the fact.
Both of the principals are well known
in Kenosha, where they have lived for
years. Mr.. DeFrang is in the plumbing
business in that city. and expects to
resume that business when he returns
to Kenosha.
The ceremony by Judge Tewnsley
was quite simple, and took place in the
presence of the groom's brother The
couple expect to stay in Gary for a few
days, after which they will leave for
Kenosha.

ZERO WEATHER IS HERE
Low Pressure Over Lakes
Saved Lake County
From Earlier Visit.

Zero weather is expected to reach
Lake county again on the wings of
north wind tonight. A foretaste was
given yesterday when wind from that
directio travelling at the rate of six
teen miles an hour pounded the mercury
down from so degrees at noon to 10
at midnight The drop in tempera-
ture was accompanied by slight driz-
zle.
Several days of severely cold and
fair weather. with winds mostly north
erly.' was the official forecast.
In the northwestern part of the Unit
ed States there is a high pressure
area. At Helene the thermometer has
shown - below, at Spokane it has
gone to below, and at ST. Paul it has
touched below. The only thing saw
ing Lake county from an immediate
descent of these temperatures since the
high area is travelling eastward is a
low pressure area over the eastern part
of the great lakes. This situation, it
is predicted. cannot last, and the bit
terly cold winds probably will reach US
tonight, if not earlier. No snow will
accompany them. according to the pres
ent outlook, and the cloudiness will
disappear.

WELL KNOWN FARMER
KILLED YESTERDAY
John NJ. Writ of Crown
Point Is Struck BY a
Panhandle Train.
EVERY BONE IN BODY BROKEN
Young Man Was on His Way to At
tend Service at the Catho-
lie Church.
EVERY BONE IN BODY BROKEN
fsnecial to THE TINES

Crown Point, Ind, Jan. 11.-One of
the most shocking ACCENTS that has
happened in Crown Point for a long
time took place yesterday morning,
when John NJ Writ, the third son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Writ, a we'll
known Lake county farmer, met an IN
timely death by being struck by the
Pennsylvania morning train, due here
at sos, and was instantly killed.
Nearly every bone in the young mans
body was broken. The incidents con-
nected with the unfortunate occurrence
are sad in the extreme and add to the
grief of the stricken parents of the
young man.
How Accident Happened.
AS far as can be learned. he started
from his brother, Joe Writes, farm,
where he has been employed, early in
the morning with the evident intention
of walking to his fathers farm, about
one and a half miles north of town,
and going with the family to the Sun
day services at the Catholic church at
this place. The young man, it is
thought, walked down the railroad
tracks from the Sauerman corner and
had got as far as the Letz Manufac-
turing company's plant when the train
bore down on him. The morning was
intensely dark and the mist made it
impossible to see the approaching
train, and from the position of the body
and the bruises thereon it is thought
that death was instantaneous. The
engineer saw the young fellow and APP
piled the emergency brakes to his train,
but to nc avail. The body was taken
to Geisen's morgue, where an inquest
will be held today. The young man
is well and favorably known by many
in Crown Point and the shocking acct
dent came as a severe blow to them.
The funeral will be held at the Cath
Ollie church. of which he was faith
full member, next Wednesday morning
