ton will use the Wabash tracks
with the Wabash in going east
and in going west all three roads
will use the Alton tracks between
the same two points.
This will eliminate the necessity
of the Wabash double tracking
between Mexico and Clark. A
double track from Clark to Mo
berly will carry out the plan for
the Wabash while the Alton and
Burlington will only have the
double track arrangements from
Clark to this city. The trains,
when not running over their
Company's tracks will make no
stops. For instance, the Alton

AWFUL SEA DISASTER.
Over 1900 People Sank to Death
Near New Foundland.

Cape Race, n. f., April 15.-
The steamer Titanic sank at 2 20
this morning and 1925 persons on
board were lost. This news comes
after passengers were reported
safe.
The steamer Olympic reports
that the steamer Carpathia
reached the Titanic S position at
daybreak today, but found only
boats and wreckage.
She reported that the Titanic
had foundered at about 2 20 IA. m.
in latitude Al :1S north and longi-
tude 80 IA west.
The message adds that all the
Titanic S boats were accounted
for and "abOut 675 persons
saved, crew and passengers" (the
latter nearly all women and chill
dren).
There were about 2,2OO persons
in all, crew and passengers, on
board the Titanic.
The report from the Olympic
states that the Leyland liner Cali
fornia was remaining and search.
ing the vicinity of the disaster.
The Carpathia, it was stated, was
returning to New York with the
survivors.
The Allen Line Offices at Mon
treal announce tonight that the
Virginian had transferred the
passengers which she took from
the Titanic to the Carpathia
shortly after receiving them.
This change was made because
the Carpathia was bound for New
York, while the Virginian was
east bound with the mails.
Eight st. Louisans were aboard
the Titanic when she collided
with the iceberg that sank the
ship.
They are:
