FIVE ARE KILLED
IN NJ. {. WRECK

JACKSON. Mich. Jan. IS. - Five
persons lost their lives and 90 more
were badly injured late Sunday night
in a collision between freight and
passenger trains on the Michigan Cen
raj railroad about eight miles outside
OF Jackson.
The known dead are:
JAMES b. CHENEY, Detroit.
HARRY SMITH, Lansing, Mich.
AL JOHNSON, engineer passenger
train.
- CHAMPDAIN, fireman passen-
ger train.
JOHN BUSH, engineer freight train
The known injured:
- GRAND, brakeman - pasSen-
ger train; serious.
DAVIS, seriously cut and bruis-
- BIRDSALL, hurt internally.
Most OF the dead and injured were
in the smoking car. which was tele-
scoped by the baggage car, making
efforts to rescue impossible until the
cars can be broken into with axes.
The dead and dying remain under
the debris and there seems no posi-
bility Of releasing the stricken for
several hours.
Access to the smoker through the
windows was INSTRUCTED By the walls
of the baggage car which Completely
incase it.
The means and shrieks of the injur-
ed can be heard and through holes in
several parts of the car enough OF the
interior can be seen with the aid of
lanterns to reveal that the death car
is damned with passengers, and the
dead may number from a dozen 70
a score.
When assistance reached the scene
Sunday night all was chaos. Train
men were trying TO relieve the suffer-
ing of the victims, but their efforts
were unavailing.
The wreck was the result of a mis-
understanding in orders. The freight
had orders to take a siding Just south
of where the trains met This il
failed to do, and met the passenger
just as the latter rounded a curve.
Engineer Johnson attempted to
jump and was caught between the ten
der and the cab and crushed to death.
