train and freight train near Marsh
field, Missouri last night.

Taken to Springfield.
Springfield, Mo-, Sept. 1S.-The in
jured were placed aboard relief train
from Springfield and rushed to hos
pitfalls here.
A wrecking crew arrived on the
scene about midnight.
All bodies recovered were brought
to Springfield, where they will be pre-
pared for shipment TO their respective
homes.
There was little confusion at the
scene of the wreck. Within a few
minutes after It occurred, a guard of
soldiers had been thrown out around
the tracks and the soldiers were at
work removing bodies and giving first
aid to their wounded comrades.
Crowds Kept at Distance.
Marsh6eld physicians were called in
TO assist in caring for the wounded.
After the first half hour no one else
was allowed to approach the wreck.
The wreck occurred a short dis
lance outside of town in fairly open
country the point of collision being
on a ten foot fill. 1t is thought a mis-
understanding of orders was the cause
of the wreck.
The trains collided head on, the
engine of the troop train being badly
damaged. The baggage car of the
troop train was entirely demolished,
and the first passenger car was
thrown forward until one end rested
on the tender of the engine. 1t was
from the wreck of this car that the
bodies were taken.
