BY Associated Press.

Marshalltown, Ia, March 21.-More
than forty were killed and almost as
many more were injured in the wreck
ing at Green Mountain off two Rock
Island trains running over the Chicago
Great Western tracks from Cedar
Rapids to Waterloo Several of the in
jured may die. Practically all the dead
are from Iowa and the Dakotas.
Several Of the dead were so horribly
mangled that Identification may be i'm
possible. Every surgeon in Marshall
town, Green Mountain and Gladbrook
is doing everything possible in emer-
gency hispitals to aid the injured.
Around the various undertaking
shops citizens throng with tear-stained
faces, anxious to get, some details of
those within.
Because of freight wreck the Rock
Island is blocked and trains are being
detoured over the Great Western
tracks.
Two trains from Cedar Rapids to
Marshalltown were coupled together
with two locomotives in front of them
and both locomotives were running
backward.
The trains was running at about %
miles an hour when one engine jumped
the track, ditching the second engine
and a sleeper, smoking car and the
day coach were telescoped. and all
three smashed to splinters. Hardly an
occupant escaped death or injury
while within other cars that remained
on the track the shock threw the pas
sengers from their seats. The unin.
jured passengers Immediately began
moving the dead and injured, laying
the dead in a pasture nearby in rows.
The dead were crushed and mutilated
horribly, heads being severed from
bodies and arms and legs cut off.
Physicians rushed to the scene and
sent number of the injured to Mar
shalltown on a rescue train. The re-
moval of the bodies showed nearly all
the dead in the day coach and smoker.

ROLLING WATER
CAUSED STAMPEDE

Boiling water, flying in all direc
tions, caused a stampede on Central
wharf at 4 80 O'Clock yesterday after
noon and Engineer Robert You'd had
narrow escape from being scalded.
A negro switchman who was working
there at the time also had to step
lively to get out of the way of the
scalding water.
Three carloads of mahogany were
backed down and struck with consid-
cradle force the truck which con-
veys the donkey engine over the local
lines and to the various points where
it might be used. The jar broke a
steam pipe and the safety valve broke
off short. At the time the gauge
showed steam at 60-pound pressure,
and the kissing made a loud noise
and attracted much attention.

Insurgents as "cowardly members" I"
A number of Insurgents were angry
because of his words, and talked loud
ly OF continuing the fight against the
speaker, but on all sides they were
met by smiles and conciliatory words
of the Regulars.

the rules committee.
The Democrats called the caucus

NEW PLAN MAY RESTORE
SHEEP INDUSTRY IN STATE
Federal Cooperation With Transcon-
tinental Railroads May Place Waste
Pasture In Northern State at Service
OF Oregon Woolgrowers.

Umatilla county wool growers will
be interested in the announcement
that a plan for federal cooperation
with transcontinental railroads may
make possible the grazing of several
thousand head OF Oregon sheep in
Washington forests, resulting in a
great impetus to the declining sheep
industry in oregon.
H. K. O'Brien, assistant district for
ester with headquarters in Portland,
has just returned from a two months
inspection trip over the Chelan and
Okanogan noational forests in north
ern Washington. Mr.. O'Brien found
that enogh pasture is going to waste
there every summer to afford grazing
for more than 100000 sheep.
1t is his purpose to induce Oregon
woolgrowers to ship their flocks to
these high ranges for the summer
feeding period. II a special transit
rate can be obtained from the rail-
roads whereby stockmen could start
the wool bearers for the eastern mar
kets at the beginning of the summer
months, with the privilege of stop
ping over for 90 days at the shipping
points nearest the forest reserves Of

ing business of Oregon will be revolu-
tionized.
The ranges of Oregon are already
crowded far beyond their capacity,
not more than so per cent Of the sheep
grown here being able to find grass in
the summer season, The indications
are that there will be a great surplus
Of range stock for the next season and
the new pastures being exploited by
the government should prove a great
help for the growers.
The pasturabe charge for sheep
jsummered on government reserves has
been fixed at six cents a head by the
federal authorities. This will be the
only expense, over and above freight
