EIGHT DEAD IN OHIO WRECK
Passenger Trains in Rear-End Col
Iision Near Dresden-Some of
Injured May Die.

GAINESVILLE, Ohio.-Eight persons
were killed and seven injured, some
of whom probably will die, in a Penn
sylvania railroad collision near Ores
deSl, Ohio.
A Cincinnati & Muskingum Valley
passenger train was following a
Cleveland, Akron & Columbus division
passenger on the single track between
Trinway and GAINESVILLE. The engine
of the latter broke down and a train
man was sent to flag the Muskingum
Valley train, but the latter was too
close.
The engine crashed through the rear
coach and demolished it. The dead
and injured were all in this coach,
but Several escaped by jumping. Some
who were injured fatally were scalded
by escaping steam.
Just before he died, Max Harris of
Lodi, a travelling salesman, asked his
attendants to notify his fiancee, Miss
Julia Rodman, of Paola, Kan.
Henry Balbian, who died in a hos
pital, was one of the best known
wooden mill men in the country.
Mrs. Emerson was found with her
head damned through a window and
both her children were dead beside
her.
