TAFT TO Use TWO PRIVATE
CARS ON HIS WESTERN TRIP

Beverly. Mass, Aug. 14,-The ar
rangements for President Taft's west
ern trip are fast being closed up, even
to the minutest details, and his itin-
erary completed. The itinerary is OF
course subject to more or less change
at the last moment, for kilograms are
pouring in from western cities and
towns which he will pass through, to
stop off, and while all of these can
not be needed. some or the invitations
will necessarily have to be accepted.
1t is now certain that instead OF
travelling in one private car, as was
first proposed, the president will make
the trip in two. He will personally
occupy the Mayflower, with his suite,
while the other officials in the party
and the newspaper correspondents
will occupy the Hazelmere. In addi
tion special baggage car will be
taken along. in which two large auto
mobiles viii be carried, for the presi
dents exclusive use on the trip. I

CURED this morning near Hustled.
Colo, when eastbound passenger train
No. collided head-on with westbound
train No. l, on a mountain curve,
while both were running under full
head of steam.
While details are lacking, five are
known to have been killed outright
and thirty-six injured, many of the
latter seriously. Those killed were
horribly mansfed. 1t is believed the
wreck is more serious than the Of
ficials will admit.
AS soon as news of the wreck was
received at the offices of the Rio
Grande in this city, a special train
carrying doctors and nurses was
rushed to the scene.
It is reported that the collision
was due to gross negligence on the
part of one of the train crews, which
overlooked it's orders to meet a
train from the opposite direction at
Hustled.
All of those killed were on train

PUEBLO OFFICERS ASK
FOR FULL INFORMATION

Chief of Police Pen Coles was in
receipt of a letter today from Sheriff
F. e. Mcmillan, of Pueblo, Colo, ask
ing for full information regarding G..
G. Collins, alias C. C. Perkins, await
ing sentence there for highway rob
berry, and who is also suspected of
having shot and killed James Baker
in Las Vegas on July %, when his
supposed victim frustrated him in an
attempt to hoId-up the Meridian res
taurant.
Chief Coles lost no time in giving
him all the facts he had in regard to
Collins movements in this city, as
the Pueblo sheriff intimated in his
letter that the facts connecting Col
Inns with the murder of Baker here.
if sufficiently substantiated, would
have a good deal to do with his SEN
tence there. The Colorado statutes
provide a minimum penalty of five
years in prison and maximum SEN
tence of life Imprisonment for the
crime Of highway robbery, and Chief
Coles believes that if the evidence
which he forwarded by mail today is
taken for what it is worth by the
Pueblo court. then Collins will get a
long penitentiary sentence If not life
Imprisonment.
