ROCK ISLAND TRAIN DETAILED
 AND PARTIALLY BURNED
Tourist Car and Sleeper Went Over Embankment-Three Lives Lost.

Trenton, Mo-, Dec. 31.-Three per- sons were killed and 45 were injured today by the derailing and partial burning of a westbound Rock Island passenger train south of Trenton.
 The wreck is thought to have been caused by spreading rails while the train was running at high speed, the locomotive and tender plunging over a f1ve-foot embankment. dragging two baggage cars. a mail car, a tourist car and a standard sleeping car with them. Another sleeping car and an observa- tion car remained on the track.
 While passengers in the wrecked cars were struggling to escape from the debris, fire started from the fire box. The splintered cars burned rap idly and the three slain passengers were partly burned. Scores of persons were rescued as the flames were scorching their clothing or burning their flesh
 David Siegel of Cleveland, O., was held by the wreckage for an hour while the fire burned within a few feet of him. The rescuers carried wa ter from the tender and kept the fire from reaching him. Eventually he was rescued, although he may lose an arm. Heroic rescues were numerous. Unharmed men and women who es- capped from the upset cars by kicking out windows and breaking down doors, rushed into the burning wreckage to rescue the less fortunate passengers.

 Company Chairman.

New York, Dec. 31.-The outlook for the new year in the iron and steel trade, which has been called the ba- rometer of business in general. is pro- nounced firm and hopeful in Q. state ment given out today by Judge 10. IF. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel corporation. Oyerconfidence, with consequent imitation and a corrective collapse, remain the dangers, he says of any period of sperity-''but we have all learned something by expert ence," he adds. in the past few years"
 "So far as relates to the iron and steel industry of this country at pres ent." says Judge Gary. there is little need for an elaborate statement The figures which are given out from time to time speak for themselves. For the past eight months the new orders re- ceived by the subsidiary companies of the United States Steel corporation have been gratifying. During the month of December the bookings of these companies combined have been about fifty thousand tons per day while their capacity Is about 41,000 tons per day. The only concern at the mills Is to satisfy customers in regard to de- liVeries"
