Going to Calumet.

Starting out with the purpose of rev.
erently honoring their departed breth-

How the Accident Happened.
The accident occurred at about a
quarter of 3 O'clock while the special
ear carrying the Ell<s to Calumet was
waiting on the main line, at the switch
south of the Osceola depot. The car
stopped there according to orders.
blocking the side track to prevent the
south bound through car from Calu-
met from pulling out until the regular
north bound car from Hancock, behind
the special. came up. According to
Superintendent Richardson, with whom
The News talked last evening, all spe-
cial cars receive these orders, a rule
which the motorman of the regular
cars are supposed to be familiar with.
While the special was waiting at Os-
cola the north bound car came along
at a rapid rate of speed and dashed
into~it, splntering the vestibule of the
special into fragments and carrying
death and injury to those standing
therein. Supt Richardson stated to
The News that i'm talking to the mo-
torman of the north bound car after
the accident he learned that the mo-
torman thought that the special was
farther ahead than it was and that In
the foggy weather the motorman could
not see very well. The fog was quite
thick and when the motorman did see
the special ahead of him the distance
was too short to stop the car, although
he at once applied the emergency
brakes. Supt. Richardson stated that
the motorman of the north bound car
was running at too rapid a pace COM
in- into the switch.
About Thirty on the Special.
The special car, No. "a, left Hough-
ton at about half past 1 o'clock, pick
ing up along the route members Of the
Hancock lodge to the number of about
thirty. bound for Calumet to partici-
pate i'm the annual memorial services
i'm honor of the departed members of
the Hancock and Calumet lodges of
Elks. There were two ladies n the
party, Mrs. j. t.. Curzon, wife of the
chaplain of the lodge, and Mrs. Walter
