CIRCUS TRAIN
IS WRECKED
Mrs. Charles GoIImar of This City
Reported Dead as Result of In
uries Received---Cars Smashed
(From Saturdays daily.0

A train carrying one section of the
Hagenbeck-W Wallace show was wrecked
today near Gary, Ind, and 69 persons
are reported dead and 115 injured.
Among those on the wrecked train
from Baraboo were Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Gollmar (the former being
manager of the show j. F. E. Billiard,
Emery Stiles, MIR. and Mrs. Charles
Rooney and Mrs. Elizabeth Rooney
Romig.
A message from Fred Gollmar, who
is advance manager for the circus, to
his wife here, received about noon,
stated that Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Coll
mar were not injured, but telegram
received at this office just as we go to
press states that Mrs. Charles Gollmar
died in a. hospital at Gary as the result
of injuries received in the wreck. F.
E. Billiard is also reported among the
injured
Mrs. Hugh Rooney received long
distance telephone message from Gary
from the Rooneys stating that they
were safe.
The train carrying the circus people
was run into from the rear by an
empty troop train said to be going
fifty miles an hour, and four Pullman
coaches were telescoped by the engine
of the latter train. Practically every
car in the circus train was demolished.
Fire broke out in the wreckage. DOz-
ems of persons were imprisoned in the
wreckage, and it seems certain that
the death toll will be heavy.
