tied up. Henry Essig and Tom Bible,
the men in the boat, sank their boat
hooks into the fish and finally drew
their prize to land. The fish was 8
feet inches long and weighed 400
pounds. 1t is the largest ever caught

100 DIE IN WRECK
MEXICAN EXPRESS TRAIN PLUNG
ES THROUGH BRIDGE INTO
RIVER.
ALL on BOARD LOSE LIVES
Several Americans Believed to Be
Among Those Hurled to Death in
River-Divers Attempt to Recover
Bodies Of tho Dead.

Mexico City, Aug. 23.-Divers began
exploring the depths of the swollen
Amacusac river in an. effort to
recover the bodies of 100 or more pas
sengers, including several Americans,
who were drowned when an express on
the National railroad plunged into the
water where the bridge had been wash
ed away.
First efforts at recovering the bodies
indicated that the exact number of
dead might never become known. Some
OF the bodies had been carried down
stream by the swift current.
Every person aboard the train per-
ished. Not even a railway employe
aboard discovered the danger ahead in
time to jump and escape death in the
stream.
Weakened by Flood.
The river had been swollen by a
cloud-burst and the unprecedented
flood had washed away the railway
bridge. Ignorant of the danger ahead,
the driver of the Inflated train was
speeding along on schedule time.
Whether he saw the chasm in front
when he reached the river bank can
only be guessed
No one in the vicinity saw the train
slow up as if in obedience to applica.
ton of the emergency brakes. The 10.
connective leaped forward at the river
bank just as it ordinarily shot on the
bridge. Then it lunged into the water,
dragging along the coaches.
A Red Cross relief train arrived at
the scene at night, but there was moth
Ing for the nurses to do. Not sur
vivor of the wreck could be found,
and it was believed all the passengers
and crew of the train persisted.
