 No one was killed. but many wers injured. Few of the injured, how ever, are seriously hurt. Two women passengers were tht worst injured One of them suffered a broken leg and the other a broker arm. Other passengers who were hur' received cuts from broken glass ant were bruised and shaken up. The train was running rapidly. be ing seven or eight hours late. Neai
 Western Springs, Ills, broken raj sent the three sleeping cars rolling down an embankment ten or fiitesr feet, pitching the cars oa their sides in the ditch. The fact that no per. son on board the train was killed seems remarkable.
 Although the weather was nearly zero, the passengers suffered little from the cold, as relief was promptly at hand and the passengers were able to dress before leaving the cars. not withstanding that the coaches were In the dttch.
 The railroad officials assert that the trains speed was fifty miles an hour, but passengers and trainrnen declare the speed was nearer sixty-five miles. At the scene of the wreck the em- bankment on which the tracks were laid fs comparatively low.
 Passengers declare that the escape without one fatality was wonderful, in view of the speed and weight of the train.
 The broken rail, termed by rail- roaders as snake raiI'' instead Of piercing one of the cars and carrying death with 1t, coiled up beneath the cars and was fin a tangle beneath the second coach when the cars swung across the tracks and stopped.
 The overturned sleeping cars were stripped of their trucks as they rolled down the embankment and windows and the glass of the doors were shat tered. The train was lighted by eiec- trtcfty. which prevented danger of fire from overturned lamps.
 Scarcely a passenger on train es- capped Injury and as a relief train neafed the city the injured persons aboard 1t recovered from the shock of the accident and became more aware of their hurts. Cries and moans from the suffering sounded through the cars. At the union station the relief train was met by ambuIances and the more severely injured were hurried to hospitals.
 Many of the passengers were Christ mas home-comers and were met at the station by relatives who had been alarmed at the delay of the train.
