ling engineman and the warning Of
a dropped semiphore arm into the pas
senger train standing still upon the
track with its hundred or so sleeping
passengers.
The dead, which filled to overflow
ing the morgues of the little town, are
in many instances so frightfully
mangled that Identification is almost
impossible.
The engine of the express train
ripped its way through the two day
coaches in the rear, killing instantly
all the passengers in them, plowed
through half steel car, throwing the
sleeping car off the track, and then
came to a standstill
The wreck was the worst in the his
tory of the road. It's cause, according
to Engineer Schroeder Of the express,
was his failure to see signals set
against his train, The morning was
foggy and he said he could not make
them out,
The stretch of track from Elmira
to Corning is fitted for fast running
and Schroeder was sending his train
along at sixty-five miles an hour, No.
3 was supposed to be half an hour
ahead of him. He had no warning
until he made out the outline of the
rear coach of No. 8, through the fog.
Then he threw in the reverse without
shutting off steam.
Schroeder said the impact threw
him from the cab and landed him on
his shoulder on the roadbed practically
unhurt

Miss oulmby's Fall With Willard.

The martyr roll of the science Of
aviation was increased by two souls
when Harriet Quimby of New York,
premier aviatrice of this continent,
and w. A. P. Willard of Boston were
hurled a thousand feet into Dorchester
bay from Miss Quimby's Bleriot Of the
most recent war type and instantly
killed
There is probably no person VINO
will ever be able to tell what caused
the accident, but some are inclined 10
the belief that the machine suddenly
ran into a gust of wind that caused
the nose to point downward too rapid
ly and that the suction pulled Willard
out of his seat to the rear OF the
operator and threw him headforemost
through space. His weight forced
Miss Quimby to follow Others say
the indications are that the tail con
troll broke, for it suddenly pointed up
ward into the air and then Willard
shot out The latter theory is ad-
vanced by number of ayiators
