scene within a short time and the in.
jured were conveyed in automobiles to
the Bethel sanitorium, which is three
miles from the scene of the wreck. Dr.
o. V. Greene of the Bethel Sanitorium
took charge of the relief work and
within an hour the victims were in the
hospital. No one is on the dangerous
list.
The train was carrying many tourists
bound to Vermont and Canadian resorts
and was making fast time when the ac-
cident happened without warning be-
the rear coach which slid about 200
feet along the Foadbed before it be-
came detached from the rest of the
tsain and dropped down the embank-
ment to the rivers edge
The accident was caused by spread
ing rails The intense heat of the past
few days had showed its effect on the
steel rails and orders had recently been
issued to run slow The train chung
TO the rails with the exception of the
last ear, the rear truck of which left the
rails, while the front truck chung for
a distance Of 200 feet before leaving
the irons. The train was not brought
to a standstill until it had gone about
100 feet after the last car broke away
According to G. II. Gumgen, travel
ing man from Windsor, who was riding
in the rear of the next to last ear, that
car was lifted off the iron on one side
when the rear car broke away After
breaking away the steel>car rolled over
on its side and down the steep embank-
ment into the river, which at this point
is very shallow.
The other end was within few feet
of the rails, standing almost in perpen-
dicular position. The roadbcd was bad
ly dug up and the rails twisted and bent
for distance of 200 feet
How single passenger in the derailed
ear escaped death is miraculous. Men,
women and children were thrown head
first when the car landed on its side
with one end hanging about a foot
above the water and the other at an
angle of 50 degrees, supported only by
the trees and stumps on the bank. The
GOODNESS of the passengers and the cour-
age they showed in assisting the more
seriously injured was remarkable. Those
who were able to walk, crawled from
the door of the ear which was opened
and were obliged to step into the river
where they were assisted to the bank.
One man, who suffered a severe cut on
his face, seated himself calmly in the
river and bathed his head. Hardly a
person uttered a groan. Owing to the
fact that the section crew was at Work
near the scene of the accident the track
| was cleared in 3 l2 hours and the
wrecked train was delayed only a little
more than an hour.

Contest in Crimes.

Statistics proving that the states of
the West and middle West ure verjta-
bic hotbeds Of burglary, as compared
with eastern states. may be found in
the widespread reports of robberies
committed, through interchange Of
crime fluctuations for the past year.
Illinois stands far and above all other
states in the reports Of 1,l5G bur-
glaries, selected at random from more
than ten times that number of rob.
berries committed which we're covered
or partly covered by insurance. Mis-.
souri, is second on the list with rs:
Pennsylvania third. with 72; Ohio
fourth, with 66. Judging from western
methods employed by burglars who
have made big hauls in and around
New York in the last few weeks, bur.
glary insurance underwriters believe
there has been a strong influx of west
ern crooks to that part Of the country,
and that New York city Is developing
the biggest crime wave in its history.
