REAR END COLLISION.
LondOn-Scotland Express Wrecked
Fifteen Killed.

Kirkby Steppen, County of West
moreland, England, Sept. Fifteen
persons are believed TO have been killed
and thirty persons injured in a COLI
sion of two sections of the famous
London-Scotland express early today.
Official reports accounted for nine
known dead. while correspondents on
the spot recorded the fatalities as fif-
teen.
The wreck occurred on the Midland
railway near Halves Junction, the two
sections being northbound. The sec
ond section dashed into the rear of the
first, telescoping several coaches which
burst into flames.
Many persons were trapped and if
not killed outright they were burned to
death. At least thirty passengers were
taken from the wreckage suffering in
juries or burns. and as many as ten of
these may die.
On a Lonely Moor
The two trains had left Carlisle for
London at 1885 and 1:47 this morn
between them occurred so miles south
of that place on a high and lonely
moor.
The first section of the train haf
stopped to get up steam for sharp
upgrade when the second sectio4
dashed into the rear, piling up the
sleeping cars which were crowded
with passengers. Almost Immediately
afterward several of the cars caught
fire and many of the passengers I 90
il impossible to get out. Rescuers
from farms in the vicinity came on the
scene too late to save. many of the
passengers.
Nine charred bodies were taken
from the wreck and it was believed
that several others were still among
the debris. About 80 injured passen-
gers were sent on special trains to
the Leeds and Carlisle hospitals. An
other disaster occurred near the same
spot on December 26, 1910 when s
passengers lost their lives and 25 were
injured

BACK TO JAIL.

countenanced it, inasmuch as Lanyon
has been a special attendant of Mattea-
wan. As such he could take charge of
Thaw as a lunatic and take him home
as one would a runaway child.
Thaw's counsellors prepared to meet
any contingency. Judge Arthur Clio
benSky, who last week permitted them
to withdraw their writ of habeas cor
puS when they became convinced that
Jail was the best place for the fugitive
for the time being, returned to Sher-
brooke from Montreal last night. Be
fore him the Thaw lawyers could sue
out another writ seeking to free Thaw
from the immigration authorities.
Crowd Cheers Thaw.
When the judge reached his cham
bers shortly after o'clock he said
he had decided to admit four reporters
to the hearing. Ignorant that the
proceedings were to be held in cham
bers crowds damned the superior
court room, swarmed in the corridors
and on the StairWays- Police kept or
der. Probably 200 persons waited out
side the Jail to watch Thaw come to
the court house.
A hundred cameras clicked as he
stepped over the threshold and a dozen
carriages fell in behind his surrey.
With Thaw was Governor Laforce or
the jail one of his turkeys and the
chief of police of Sherbrooke.
There was no excitement as the car
riages rolled down the hill into the
main street, but as they approached
the court house the crowd grew in
number and began to cheer. OUTSIDE
the main entrance of the court house
there were fully 1 900 persons. Sew
eral ran up to shake Thaws hand but
LaForce showed them back. Thaw
looked ill at ease. Possibility of early
deportation evidently worried him.
The crowd surged behind him as he
mounted the stairs to the judges
chambers and many pushed the door
when it was shut in their faces.

HUNT FOR MISSING MAN
Believed to Have Been Slugged and
Robbed i'm Kansas City.

Kansas City, Sept. 2.-Men in boats
| searched the river along the Kansas
City wharf and detectives instituted a
detailed search of the rough quarters
| of the city along the river front today
| in effort to explain the strange dis
: appearance of Paul H. Thompson, fire
| commissioner of Nebraska, whose
bloody coat and hat were found UNI
der the municipal wharf yesterday.
A department store clerk mentioned
by Thompson in note to his wife
found in the coat told-the police today
that he had known Thompson we'll
had been a friend of his at his home in
Grand Island, Neb. However, he said
he had not seen him since midnight
Sunday when he left him on the street
after spending the evening showing
him the sights"
Chief of Police Hammil and Inspec-
tor Client of the detective department
this morning leaned to the theory that
Thompson was neither a murder vic
, tim nor a suicide, but had been slug
ged and robbed by some person who
threw his victims hat and coat I'M
der the wharf. Thompson, they be-
lieved would be found somewhere in
the river front quarter There was
evidence. they said, that Thompson
had returned to his hotel room during
yesterday afternoon. Indications were
that the bloody garments had been
placed under the wharf about o'clock
yesterday morning.
His Father Arrives.
Christ Thompson, a Grand Island live
stock dealer arrived today and took
charge of the search for his son. With
him was w. s. Ridgell, fire commits
sioner of Nebra ska. under whom young
Thompson served deputy commits
SiOner. Statements concerning alleged
affairs between Thompson and wo-
man in Grand Island, Omaha and Lin
coin, made by Ridgell and the elder
Thompson, were considered by the po-
lice as strengthening their theory that
Thompson is not dead but has diSap-
peared Intentionally.
Thompson is % years old. Accord
ing to Ridgell, he was arrested with a
woman in Lincoln two weeks ago and
released after stating that the woman
was his wife. The woman, Miss Ella
Crafty of Grand Island, told Lincoln
officials at that time, according to
Ridgell, that she and Thompson eloped
and had been married three months
ago The same woman has cOmmuni-
Gated with the local police and asked
to be kept informed concerning clews
to Mr.. Thompson's whereabouts.
Word of Thompson's trouble came
to me after the Lincoln arrest and 1
asked the young man if he was mar
ried,'' Mr.. Ridgell said today. He de-
ned that he was
The elder Thompson said if his son
was married he knew nothing OF 1t.
The department store clerk, the only
friend Thompson is known to have had
here, made a statement today giving
details of his association with Thomp-
son on the three days prior to his dis
appearance. He said they had seen
the sights together and that Thomp-
son was in good spirits when he left
him Sunday midnight. He said Thomp-
son had announced his intention of 60
ing to st. Louis Monday morning to
step around a Bit The clerk said he
believed it not unlikely that Thompson
had carried out this intention, leaving
the bloody hat and coat as a blind.

Later speculation took ON a heavy tone.
Impairment of bank reserve shown in
