A derrick has kten erected In tbe centre of tbe central tower which la twenty feet in di ameter and by tbla means tha atones en tbe top of the wall are lowered te the pert bole at tbe bass of the tower Just above the prison reef. They are swung out of one el the pert holes and carried thenee en a plank flooring above the front battlement of the prison.

Having taken a leek from tbe outside the reporter sought an Interview wltb tbe officials Inside.

Tbe whole party then went direct te their rooms. Q lite a number et parsons called at the hotel iuqulrlng it Mr. Blaine had arrived, but he waa aecessib'e te none until he bad taken breakfast It Is a noteworthy fact also that ex Congressman J. S. Bunnell, of Dea Moines, and J. S. Clarksen, or the Dea Moines Register, are also registered at tbe hotel. Mr. Runnells, It is aaid, came tn meet Mr. Blaine. There may be no significance in tbe meeting, but wherever Runnells and two or three ethers are gathered together tberealse will be a general "pjw-wew," as one of the guests el the hotel remarked, when he was looking ever tbe register. Mr, Blaine leeks almost aa hale and hearty aa he did three years age when be was en his campaign tour. He is somewhat grayer, though, and his face ba the care worn ap pearance of a man autlerlng with some malady. Thia is probably due te bis recent spell et a cknesj. HU general health Is very geed.

The bodies were placed In caskets, oevere with black cloth with silver mountings. Thay were taken te the upper depot of the Reading' railroad, and conveyed thence by rail te their late residence between Manhelm and Mount Hepe tbla afternoon. Tbe doable funeral will take place Friday morning. Mr. Becker's death waa caused by a frac ture et tbe skull In the back part of tbe bead. Hla body was net otherwise mangled. Mra Becker bad four bad cuts en tbe head and face, ber skull waa fractured and ber nose broken and one et her wrist was badly tern. Mra. Emma Becker, a daughter-in-law or the unfortunate couple who were killed, and who was In the wagon with them at the time et the accident, Is In a fair way of recovery. She has some bad cuts In tbe scalp, her left cellar-bone is broken, and she suffered asvere bruises and lacerations, but after receiving surgical attendance, ahe had recovered suffi ciently te be taken te her home. Jack Cen nor, one et Fred. Brimmer's drivers, took her and ber baby in a carriage te her home be yond Manhelm. She waa able te walk from Mra. Ann McGrann' house, where her wounds were dressed, te tbe carriage. The engineer of the train tbat struck Mr. Becker's wagon aaya tbat Mra, Emma Becker's child, was net carried en tbe cow catcher 300 yards, as stated yesterday, but waa thrown clear above the cow catcher Inte the truek apace behind the heavy beam In front of the loeomotlve.

The two last named are single and the ether two married. Three of the sons were In town this morning, and this afternoon at 3:15 tbey took tbe bodies et their dead parents home. A MISArrnEItENSION CORRECTED. Tbe statement in tbe iNTELMOBNCKit that the train was traveling at the rate et 1,100 feet in one and a half aeoends at tbe time or the accident caused many people last evening te brush up their mathematical Ideas and figure en lu possibility. The whole becomes very clear when It Is stated that It should have read "fen and one-halt seconds," which would be raster tban a mile a minute. On tbla clear stretch of read this speed Is elten attained. Supervisor Nelsen says It 1 net safe for any one attempt te cress the track, no matter bow close they are te it, when the train Is 700 feet trem the crossing. TUE CORONER'S INQUEST. The coroner's Jury Impanneled yeaterday te Inquire Inte the circumstance of Mr. and Mra. Becker's death reassembled this after neon In the orphans' court room te bear tbe evidence of the trainmen.

Mra. Becker waa dead ; tbe engineer sounded the whistle east et the Frultvllle pike bridge; tbe train was running about 30 miles an hour; the usual rate Is 33 miles. B. F. Kennedy, engineer of the train, tes tified that be knew nothing of tbe accident until his engine struck the people ; the tint thing he saw was the horse's bead en the right hand side of the engine, the animal had escaped ; witness blew the whistle at the signal pest, a hundred yarda eaat of this crossing ; tbe train wa stepped a aoen aa be saw what had occurred ; witness picked tbe baby, which was unhurt, oft the axle In tbe front part of the engine, Immediately back of the oewcatcher. There waa ahawl en tbe cowcatcher and when witness went te pick It up be heard tbe baby cry ; otherwise he would net have aeen it When tbe train struck the team It waa running 30 or 35 miles per hour. Arthur Wilsen, fireman, testified that when be aaw the engineer put en tbe brake, be asked what waa tbe matter ; then aaw the horse running away ; did net aee the engine strike tbe team ; when train stepped witness went back te assist tbe conductor ; waa positive tbat tbe engineer whistled before tbe crossing wa reached. Cbrtitlan Nixderf teatlfied be waa hauling clay near tbe place of the accident when It occurred. He saw the train coming under the Frultvllle bridge.
