were received in this city RELIEF

locomotives were standing on end, a
mass of twisted and broken steel
while the smoker. the chair car and
the forV ard tourist car of the pas
senger train were either complete
wrecks or badly smashed. The chair
car. in which most of the killed were
riding. was cut in two and the tourist
