believed to be dead and burning in
the wreckage of rear-end collision
OF two suburban trains in the half
mile tunnel leading to the St. Lazare

les already had been recovered at 9
O'Clock this evening. Twenty seri-
ously injured persons and So slight
ly injured also had been recovered.
Seventeen coaches were burning
and firemen were cutting a hole
through the roof Of the tunnel, hop
ing to create an upward draft i'll
order to allow the smoke and gas
to escape. Both trains were filled
with homeward bound commuters
and authorities say that any one re-
manning in the tunnel is almost cer-
tain to be dead.
The collision occurred when a train
for the suburb, Marly-Le-Roi,
crashed nto the rear end of train
for Versailles, which left four min
utes earlier on the same track, but
which, stopped inside the tunnel tc
repair a broken coupling. Cries for
help and means were audible at both,
ends Of. the tunnel.
Later it was learned the fire had
started explosions OF small illumi-
mating gas tanks in the coaches Of
the telescoped train. Hundreds Of
the injured escaped by running
through the dark tunnel. along the
track to both ends. Troops were
called out Immediately to surround
the scene of the disaster.

Bostedt suffered a fractured ankle
in the chase in which an eight-cyl-

Patrick (Packey) Gaughan of Onla-
ila as the driver of the car.
Bates. whose real name, accord

Baker, told State Agent Sumner
Knox that Bostedt was the first man
to accost him. He declared his ma
chine drove straight west on Broad

been chased by the motorcycle Of

This leads Knox to take up the
theory there were two eiglt-cy1inder
cars Of the same make hauling booze
through the Bluffs, that the first car
escaped and the second was caught
by Bostedt.
Knox received telegram yester-
day afternoon from Chicago stating
that Packey Gaughan had purchased
a new car there several days ago,
and, according to Knox, the numbers
registered fer this car are the same
as those of the confiscated ma

turned to Chicago to secure mort

having played into the hands of spec
