In every large community insanitary
conditions exist on a considerable
amount Of property belonging to the
city itself which is unimproyed and

STREET CAR HIT
BY FREIGHT TRAIN
THIRTEEN PERSONS ARE DEAD
AND AT LEAST TWENTY
ARE INJURED.
Bodies So Badly Mangled That ldenti-
fication at Scene Was Almost
Impossible.

Western Union Newspaper News Service.
Detroit, Mich.-Thirteen persons are
dead and at least 20 injured, many OF
them seriously, as the result of col
lision between a Forest avenue street
car and a Grand Trunk freight train.
The accident occurred at the Dequin-
der street crossing, in the east side Of
the city, a spot which has been the
scene of several accidents in years
past. The street car, heavily laden
with passengers on the way home from
the Billy Sunday Tabernacle, had just
got in the middle of the railroad tracks
when the freight train, running at per
haps rs miles an hour, crashed into t.
The engine, one of the big eight-wheel
mogul tye, plunged through the street
car as though 1t was a paper hoop,
emerging on. the opposite side, its
speed still unchecked. And as 1t
passed it left behind mangled mass
Of humanity. Women and little chill
dren, many wounded unto death, lay
along the right Of way, the momen-
tary silence which followed the crash
intensifying the horror.
Panic.stricken passengers began
jumping from both the front and rear
doors and climbing through windows.
Most of the dead were killed by jump
ing from the car and falling under the
wheels of the still moving freight cars.
Ambulances from every hospital in
Detroit were rushed to the scene and
quickly took the injured to hospitals,
where medical aid could be given. At
midnight one hospital alone reported
15 injured and one dead had been
taken there. The accident is the third
of similar nature here in the last
year, and the second to occur at tho
Forest avenue crossing The bodies OF
the persons killed were so badly man
gled that Identification at the scene
of the wreck was almost impossible.

Summer Home-Rich Husband
Is Held.

Mountain View, N. H., Oct. =
Mrs Frederick L. Small. wife Of
Boston real estate broker, who was
burned in fire on Friday which de-
stroyed the Small summer home at
Lake Ossipee, was murdered. it was
discovered when the body was taken
from the ruins. She had been beaten
over the head and strangled by rope
tied around her neck.

neck lodged in a pool of water. The
rope which had been drawn twice
around the neck was preserved.
