The train was moving at forty
miles an hour when tho flange OF "a
drive wheel struck the point OF frog

The locomotive and the tender sep
arated and the locomotive continued
for fifty yards. humping the ties until
IT went down the embankment and

The solid steel train, baggage car,
four express cars, two mail cars, two
coaches, three sleepcrs and dining
car. followed the derailed tender Off
the rails, tearing up the right Of way,
until only the dining car was left on

on the ties, but the steel construction
prevented telescoping and held the
cars upright. though nt times Conduc-
tor Col. John Ellsworth Everett said
he feared tho whole train would turn
over into the half frozen mud of the
swamp.
A wrecking train with doctors and
nurses and hospital car were sent

from Jersey City arrived at 40.

attention for cuts and bruises and
hysteria. All of them were badly

twenty passengers were brought back
to Port Jervis with tho dead fireman
and tho injured engineer and were
cared for in the Port Jervts Hospital.

WASHINGTON, Dec. II (Copy-
righD.-Talk of third party an1
progressive" blocs has hitherto been
confined to its effect on the Repuk-
lican party and has been looked upon
really as u revolt inside that party,
but there is every reason to believe
the progressive" movemnt will soon
break out in the ranks of the Demo-
cratic party.
woodrow Wilson's recent decision to
take an active part in Democratic pol
flcs, or rather his rapid physical re-
cupcration, which has enabled his
physicians to permit him TO dig into
nus correspondence and see callers, is
significant OF a change in the mood of
passive silence which has charac-
ter1zed the Democratic party durin,,
the recent outcry of the Republican
'progressives" for a new deal in mol
itics.
MI Wilson is not by any means
the active man hat he was when
president. Probably he never will he
BUT he is physically stronger to-day
than at any time since his colIapse
he is capable Of at least two hours
of sustained work every day and he
takes advantage Of it to write many
letters and to see people.
He has been seeing an average of
one caller day and some DAYS has
many more. Most Of them have been
old friends. but some have brought
him information on the political state
OF affairs. Everyone has gone away
with the impression that the mind of
woodrow Wilson is as alert to day as
1t was when he was in the Presidency
and that his reasoning powers are as
clear as they We're in the days of war

Fire on a crowded Lexington Ave-
nue. subway express train at 91st
Street at s.25 o'clock this morning
started n panic. which was quelled
with difficulty by guards. police re-
serves and cool-headed passengers
who knew the excitement itself was
more dangerous than the blaze and
smoke.
Within a short time after the stop
ping OF the train many OF the pas
sengers had been helped TO the street
by way OF the emer1 1ency exits, many
others had walked beside the track 70
the station at seth Street. and then
the train itself was pulled into the
station.
A short circuit started the nre un
der the fourth car OF the train, which
filled with smoke. A minute or two
later some one who knew the emer-
gency exit had reached the street and
turned in a fire alarm.
Capt. Joseph Loonan Of the East
lo4th Street Police Station came to
the scene with a squad of reserves,
who descended into the tunnel and
helped some of the more excited pas
sengers to the street. Power was shut
off. so that passengers along the track
we're not in danger from the third
rail, and train guards with extingulsh-
ers soon had the fire out. The damage
was slight.
The police have no report that any
body was injured. but one girl, Violet
Ballen, No. 1Os East 12Sth Street.
after walking with apparent calmness
to the seth Street Station, proceeded
to faint as soon as she reached that
snfe place. She was taken to the Re-
ception Hospital but 1t was said her
condition was not serious.
One Negro. Henry Spencer, No. IS
West 1S5th Street. was also treated by
an ambulance surgeon. The only
trouble with him. however, was
hysteria.
The police say the conduct of most
Of the passengers was admirable and
they add that education ought Ia
get tho credit. Most New Workers
now know. the police said, that fires
such as this one are not nearly 40
dangerous as passengers used to think
them.
Tho damaged train was delayea
about twenty minutes. and Of course
all tho express trains north OF It ON
the same track were held back.
Local trains on the Lexington Ave-
nuo line travel in separate tubes on
a higher level than the expresses.
Hence there was no disturbances OF
local traffic.
There was a delay and a crush Of
passengers on the West Side subway
