EIGHT SOLDIERS KILLED
CBv Review Leaseo Wire,

(By ReVIeW Leased WIre)
 COLUMBIA, s. C., May 11.-Eight soldiers were killed and twenty-six injured today when a wooden rail coach filled with members of the 5z1st infantry went over a trestle at Camp Jackson. All of the men were from southern states.
 Three of the injured were seriously hurt. The soldiers had just entrained for Camp SeHler at Greenvllle, N. C., and the train was pulling out from Camp at a slow rate. As it reached the trestle the rails spread beneath a steel coach in the rear and the wooden car ahead was showed off into the ravine below.
