cate that more than 100 persons may
have been crushed or burned to death In

whllo villagers were battling the flames
A number of wounded, still pinned be
neath the timbers, were killed outright.
Forty bodies had been recovered early

caught fire and burned so rapidly that
many bodies have been Incinerated, and
it (s believed the loss of life Is much
larged than at first reported. Three hun
dred injured, many of them soldiers, have
been removed to hospitals.
The difficulties of tho rescuers were
made worse when the third train, a Lon
don express, struck the wreckage. The
fire broke out a second time and blazed
up fiercely.
The uninjured soldiers worked heroical
ly to reacuo their burning comrades, but
were driven back repeatedly by the
flames. Some broke down and sobbed
hysterically as they heard the pitiful
pleas of the burning victims.
Of BOO soldiers on the troop train only
52 answered a rollcall after the wreck.
Some of thes oldlers were said to be ab
sent aiding the wounded, but tho majority
were believed to have been killed or in
jured. The village of Gretna, where the wreck
occurred. Is eight mites northwest of
Carlisle, Just Inside the English boundary
and across the border from the famous
Gretna Green. Its one hospital was quick
ly filled with Injured, and scores of sol
diers and civilian passengers, crushed or
burned, were 14 d In rows In the fields at
the edge of the village where they were
attended by physicians.
Tho Carlisle fire department wae hur
ried to Gretna, but the wreckage was In

said:
"I am going 'home. I shall do my
best to keep out of the limelight
for some time to come. I do not
expect to be Interviewed or make
any public statement on any sub
ject for some time to come."
SYRACUSE, N. T., May 22. William
Barnes Is a "boss." A Jury so decided
today In nwnrdlng a verdict for Colonel
Roosevelt In the 50,000 libel suit brought
against the former president by Barnes,
because Roosevelt branded him a "boss"
nnd linked him politically with crooked
business and corruption.
The verdict was brought In shortly
after 10 o'clock this morning. The Jury
had been deliberating since 3.45 o'clock
Thursday, a period of about 42 hours. The
12 men finally arrived at n unanimous de
cision, after a legal mix-up almost unpre
cedented In the history of New York
State.
The verdict was a blow to Barnes nnd
n complete surprise to Colonel Roosevelt.
It was the common belief around the
courtroom that the Jury would report Its
utter failure to agree and be discharged
by Justice Andrews, today. It was be
lieved that Edward nurns, the Syracuse
motorman, who first voted for Roosevelt,
yesterday, and then reversed his vote be
cause tho court would not permit the
Jury to divide the costs, would hold out
for the plaintiff until the end.
Burns' demeanor when the Jury left the
courthouse early today confirmed this be
lief. He strode along unaccompanied by
his fellow-Jurors, his Jaws firmly set and
with an appearance of defiance.
Immediately after the verdict was an
nounced the jurors exchanged glances and
there was an audible sigh of relief from
every person In the court room. The poll
being completed, Justice Andrews ac
cepted the verdict for Colonel Roosevelt
and thanked the Jurora for their five
weeks of service.
Colonel Roosevelt shook hands with
