ATLANTA. Dec. .24. (P)-John Gil lespie, former Detroit police commis- sioner, who led the rescue workers, told the story of the wreck when a remnant of the Ponce de Leon pas sengers arrived. He told of dead men hanging out of windows, decapitated women, unrecognizable corpses and the mutilated and injured
 "The crash came at $40 at night" said Gillespie. "Our train was mak- ing 50 miles an hour I was in the second car behind the diner. Every person in the car was thrown to the floor. The impact was terrific. The train jerked, groaned and creaked. There was a great crunching sound. If the brakes on our train were ap- piled at all it was at the very moment of the crash. I got out and a fireman of a freight on a siding told me the freight engineer signaled the Ponce de Leon train to make an emergency stop as it sped toward the southbound train around a bend.
 "The day coach was virtually driven thru the dining car and telescoped al- most it's entire length. The lights in the diner were out, and because of the darkness and a pouring rain it was impossible to see inside. I gathered two or three of the uninjured men, communicated an automobile and went to Rochmart for aid and re- turned. Under the light of flares from two windows on the wrecked diner saw terribly torn parts of two negro walters, their bodies hanging and their white coats smeared with blood. From another window we dragged the decapitated body of an middle-aged woman. Two tots who had expected to greet Santa Claus tomorrow were so badly crushed will be almost impossi- ble.
 T saw a man still seated in a chair 1 at a table, apparently only dazed. I 1 got him out, and found that his body l had been severed just below the l waist"
 The diner was split down the mid He. It was of modern steel construc- .ion. The railway company stated: The wreck was apparently caused by the engineer of the Pon de Leon rain overlooking an order to take the siding"

Rapid piling up of stocks of wheat
In Canada with vessel rates to Europe
the steepest since 1920, made wheat
values average lower today. Word
that 1000, 900 bushels of Canadian
wheat, though, had been purchased
for Europe, held to bring about light
rally. Closing quotations on wheat
were unsettled, off to sc up, corn
l to Z down, oats varying from &c
decline to l advance. and provisions
unchanged to a rise of 35c.
Most of an increase of 15.37S,oo0
bushels this week in the worlds avail
able supply of wheat was reported
as being in Canada. This circum--
stance appeared the more significant
because an increase a year ago was
only 2,843,000 bushels. Furthermore.
hedging sales here from the north
west were much in evidence and there
was also a good deal of liquidation on
the part of discouraged holders.
Meanwhile, gossip was current that
the problem of marketing North Amer
ica's surplus wheat was becoming
more and more difficult and that con-
gestion of wheat had appeared at va
rious places, especially In Canada.
Favorable crop prospects in Argen-
tine and Australia together with low,
err quotations in Liverpool counted
also as a bearish factor In the wheat
market here.
Lowest prices this season We're
reached by all deliveries Of corn.
Wheat weakness was the chief de-
pressing influence, with primary re-
ceipts of corn for two days AT 2Ss4,-
