stratton, Colo. July l9.-(F-Nine
bodies had been recovered early to-
day from the wreckage Of the Chi
cago, Rock Island e. Pacific's crack
passenger train which plunged through
. flood-weakened bridge into an ar
royo q few miles from here at dawn
yesterday.
The car in which the bodies were
found, Pullman. was still submerged
beneath the torrent that poured down
the ordinarily dry creek-bed. On each
side Of the stream other Pullman and
baggage cars were piled. two Of the
Pullmans half submerged.
Eight Of the bodies were taken from
the one car. which was so completely
submerged that It was two hours after
the wreck before 1t was realized that
one Of the cars in the train was
missing. The ninth body, that Of q
negro Pullman porter, was found .
mile downstream from the wreck.
Scores Are Injured
Scores Of the more than 100 passen-
gers aboard the train were injured
and were taken to hospitals.
Many Of the passengers were pre-
pairing for their first view Of the
Rocky mountains. The dawn was
breaking as the train sped westward
at an estimated speed Of As miles
an hour.
The engine Of the train crossed the
bridge safely. but the structure gave
way as the rear wheels Of the bag
gage car passed over it. The car
cleared the bridge and plunged OFT
the track, turning over. A second
Pullman almost cleared the arroyo
its rear section only falling into the
stream. The next car was submerged
and the front section of the Pullman
next in line fell into the water. The
remainder OF the Is coaches were
streyn about the prairte.q
The engineer disconnected AaesS L

Reports From Commission on
Bourbon Demands will Be
Ready Within 10 Days
SPECULATION IS At ODDS
Observers See in Action lnten-
ton Of Chief Executive to
Got Into Tariff Fight

Washington. July l9.-lR-The
Washington Post today says "Prest-
dent Hoover has directed the tariff
commission to give him a report Of
al Democratic members OF the house
and Democratic senators who have
made requests Of It."
Presumably" It continues, "Mr.
Hoover Is preparing himself to get
into the tariff fight.
THE report. 1t Is understood, will
be ready in week or 10 days. So
far as can be learned. comparatively
few Democrats have asked anything
Of the commission. at least increases.
and in the instances in which they
did. the increase was sought on agrt-
cultural products.
THE presidents request, however.
caused considerable surprise. It can
not be, it Is pointed out. that he has
in mind reviewing the cases In which
the Democrats have been turned down
with . view to revising the action Of
his predecessor. The conclusion must
be that he Is arming himself for the
tariff fight, that he intends to use the
information himself or plans to turn
It over to the administration SEN
ators."
The white house today denied pub
lislaed reports that President Hoovei
had directed the tariff commission tc
report to him on Democratic members
OF congress who had made requests
OF 1t. At the same time comment
on the reports by Senator Harrison
Democrat. Mississippi, declared the
Democratic minority would "neithel
be bludgeoned nor browbeaten" In the
tariff controversy.
