The candidate followed the lines OF
his previous addresses. placing en-
phasis upon his long service in con-

the rear of train No. 2, known as the
Overland express from Denver, which
was standing on the track. telescop-
ing two of the Overland's Pullman
cars.
Railroad officials refused to fix the
blame until after the wreck has been
investigated thoroughly. Mrs. F. A..
Wilcox, who was In charge of the
tower from which the block signals
were controlled, said she was certain
the block was thrown against both
trains.
All the dead except one were taken

with lines of hose.

he left when the Illinois legislature in
