EIGHT DIE AS TRAIN
HITS BURIAL PARTY
Parts of Bodies and Frag-

CHICAGO, November 1s.-Eight
persons were instantly killed and
funeral limousine in which they were
riding was demolished when a fast
Santa Fe train crashed into the ma
chine as it was crossing the tracks
between Summit and Lyons this
morning.
Parts of the victims bodies and
fragments of the machine were
strewn along the track for nearly
mile, The accident occurred at
bend in the road, and it was thought
the driver was unable to see the ap-
preaching train on account of driv
ing snowstorm.
While Santa Fe officials reported
but seven dead. witnesses of the ac-
cident said they counted the bodies
of eleven victims along the tracks.
They said five men. and boy and
girl. supposed to be about eight years
old, were among the victims.
Not even the license plate could be
found in the wreckage to identify the
car. The largest piece of the wrecked
automobile measured no more than
four feet long. The train, which was
bound for Chicago. was said to have
been running at high rate of speed.
DR.. s. S. Fuller of Riverside, who
was driving along the road near by,
assisted in removing several injured
to the La Grange Hospital. The

accident occurred, is part of a con-

COLD WAVE
: OF YEAR PREDICTED
Following Yesterdays Record
Rise, Decided Change Is
Expected.

Magnetic disturbances traced to
spots on the sun, and a November
heat record, gave Washington yester-
day afternoon and last night the
most varied assortment of atmos-
pheric conditions probably ever
ohronialed simultaneously by scien-
fists at the weather bureau and the
Naval Observatory.
AS a climax. according to the wealth
er prognosticator today, cold winds
from the frozen sections of the north
west. where the temperature is how
ering around 26 degrees below zero,
are destined to drive the warm wave
into the Atlantic ocean within the
next twenty-four hours.
Yesterday was the warmest No
vember Is of record in the fifty years
of the weather service. The ther-
mometer touched 80 degrees at )
o'clock in the afternoon. This equal
ed the high record for November

so degrees. Other warm November
days were recorded November l. 1882;
November q, 1900, and November 4,
1914, when the temperature on each
of these days reached the 10 mark.
Cold Wave Coming.
Strong northwest winds. following
rains forecast for this afternoon andto-
night, will bring to Washington the first
real cold wave of the year, and also
break the abnormally warm weather
in all the Atlantic and east gulf
states, the weather man said. Rains
have fallen in the past twenty-four
hours, in the gpd states and the Ohio
valley, and rains. changing to SHOWS,
in the upper lake regions and the
upper Mississippi valley. A storm of
marked intensity this morning over
Lake Huron was reported moving
eastward. storm warnings have been
ordered dilplayed on the Atlantic
coast from Cape Hatteras to Eastport,

zero W&$ rsH0rted today at Havre,
Mont, and temperatures below zero in
the Dakotas, Wyoming, Montana and
the western Canadian provinces.
The heat wave in Washington, ac-
cordinE to. the weather bureau, is due
to q low pressure over the Mississippi
valley, and southerly winds.
Flashes Of light in the skies, nearly
in line with the moon, were seen
last night by suburban residents.
Scientists at the Naval Observatory
said the phenomenon probably was
due to q magnetic disturbance of
some sort caused by sun spots. They
scout the theory that the aurora
borealis or northern lights may have
caused the disturbance.
Profs. A. Peters and Hall at the
Naval Observatory said today. that
they have photographed several spots
Eon the sun, which they attribute to
the disturbance Of last night. One Of
the spots, quite large, 10 near the
center Of the sun. while medium
spot was discovered on the left Of the
sun. The latter spot has been visible
for two days.

United States Senator.

The world looks with faith to the
disarmament conference now sitting
in Washington. Its confidence and
hope were measurably increased by
the encouraging beginning the con-
ference made upon its task, under the
guidance Of Secretary of State Hughes.
For three years and more. the
misery-ridden. tax-burdened people OF
the world have looked in vain for
some leader to point them a pathway
out of the chaos and gloom that en-
shrouded them. But they have found
their leaders engrossed for the most
part in that futile game of welt
politik" which not only brought on
the world war. but which made Of its
settlement a mockery. if not actually
a crime.
Public Opinion Attracted.
In the midst of this the proposals of
the United States government for a
conference to discuss Limitation of
armament came like clear light on
the pathway of a benighted traveller.
The public opinion of the world-I
mean of the great toiling, struggling,
downtrodden masses of the world
turned to this hopeful ray upon the
instant. This public opinion forced
their governments to accept the
American invitation.
