Scenes When Relief Train Arrives

At exactly 6.3o o'clock last evening the relief train, sent out to the Cum mingham wreck, 2 miles from Birming ham. slowly backed into the Louis viile and Nashville depot Outside of the iron gates hundreds of anxious people awaited for news of the wreck. Some were mere idlers attracted by curiosity, but a goodly number were there because some of their relatives or friends had been expected on the train.
 Inside the gates railroad officials. police, ambulance tenders and reporters were active and a scramble took place when the relief train came to stop and the passengers began coming out. The ambulance men were the first on the job, with their cots mounted on baggage trucks. upon which the injured were hastily placed and as hastily re- moved to the waiting ambulances which hurried to the hospital.
 The passengers as they descended from the train appeared calm and one would never have guessed they had just been through the narrowing experience of being in a serious wreck. The pas sengers were easy to interview. as the railroad men could not be every where to interfere, but when the, re- porters tried to secure information from the wounded they were firmly removed. One of the wounded men, the baggage man on the wrecked train, who suffered secere contusions about the head, was missed by the ambulance tenders and sat down on the edge of the train platform awaiting aid. The wounded man, Hunter F. Harrison answered the queries put to him for a moment. and then two railway men pushed every body aside. yelled for the police to re- move the reporters and cautioned the baggage man, Harrison. not to answer any questions.

1t was not stated whether he will go
on the trail of Roosevelt as far as the
Pacific slope but 1t was generally un-
