The District Commissioners have had the
subject Of the removal of the bodies from this
cemetery under consideration of late, but have
as yet determined on nothing owing to the
want OF funds TO pay the necessary expense.
It Is, however, more than likely that, at the

be promptly executed. Within the past few

NAMUR, Belgium, Dec. 10 GIN.
SO.-Eighteen persons are known
to have lost their lives, and at
east 10 more are feared to have
got fatal injuries in a railroad
accident near this station today.
The locomotive and two bag
gage cars of fast train bound
rom Paris to Arlon jumped the
rack and overturned completely,
while two passenger coaches were
smashed to kindling when they
piled upon the top of the de-
allied cars.
OF the so persons injured, 10
are expected to die.
Ten of the dead have been
identified as French people. The
remaining eight have not been
identified.
The crash was one Of the worst
that has occurred on French rail
way lines IN recent times.
AmbulanCes bearing nurses and
doctors we've rushed to the scene
of the accident from all nearby
points, but the passenger coaches
were so badly buckled by the
crash the task of extricating the
dead and injured was exceedingly
difficult.
