The Tenible SarratiTts Told by the Snrritors of the
Disaster.
A fatal wreck occurred on tlie Uonon
road, near Indianapolis, caused by the
spreading of the rails near a trestle. Six
persons were killed ana a large number in
jured, many of them seriously. To add to
the horrors the debris took fire and the
bodies of a portion of the Tictims were
bcrned.
IXDIASATOLIS, January 27. Passenger
train No. 1, on the Monon, which left Chi
cago last night at 11:55, was wrecked at 7:50
this morning, one mile above Carmel, a
village 16 miles north of this place. Tne
train was running at a rapid rate, and was
approaching the long trestle across "Wilker
son's creek when the tender of the encine
jumped the track. The engineer reversed
his engine, and before the airbrakes could
check the speed of the train the locomotive
and baggage car had cleared the trestle, but
the four cpaches attached went over into the
creek.
The ladies' coach immediately caught fire,
and in an incredibly short time was reduced
to ashes. Fortunately ibr the occupants of
this cojeh, train No. 2, which Jelt this city
for Chicago at 7:30, had been ordered to
meet the train No. 1 at Carmel, and as soon
as word ot the wreck was received the
passengers hurried to the scene and went
earnestly to work rescuing the ocenpants of
the burning car.
A MOST HORRIBLE SIGHT.
A horrible 'scene met their eyes. In plain
view ot all were two boys and a woman. All
were dead, but their bodies were being rap
idly consumed. Hie arm of one, projected
through the side of the car, could be touched
by those on th outside, but the opening was
not larze enough to draw the body through.
Immediately in front of the boy was a lady
who got on the train at Frankfort, and is as
yet unidentified. Her body was enveloped in
" flames, but there was no possible way to get
her out of the burning coach.
Across from this ladv was Mrs. Eubanks.
of Broad Ripple, Ind. Her head was hor
ribly crushed. The brakeman and a pas
senger seized her by the arms and by a des
perate effort pulled the body through the
window. Life was not yet extinct, but she
lived only a few minutes after being taken
out. Another of the rescued, but who has
since died, was Mr. Dening, of Sheridan.
He was pinioned to the floor by timbers and
horribly crushed.
Some heroic men seized axes, and after a
few minutes' work cut away the timbers
that held the body, which was removed to
the north side of "the track. There was no
medical aid present and the man died in a
few moments.
THE FLAMES SUBDUED.
Buckets having been procured from the
farm houses nearbv. the flames were soon
subdued, and the fire prevented from com
municating to the sleeper or other coach :s.
As soon as it was possible to do so, a search
was made for the dead. The body of a
woman was soon found. It was burned
to a crisp. The Oldham children were found
side by side, the heavy stove lying across
their bodies. Mr. W. J. Collins, who was
on the train, furnishes the following ac
curate list of the dead and injured:
J. N.JJEMING. Sheridan, IntL, crushed.
MRS. EUBANKS, Broad Ripple, crushed.

was running entirely too fast considering
the short length of the curve, and this was
no doubt largely the reason of the accident."
NOTES NEARLY OUTLAWED.
A Railroad Which Owrt the Slate of Mil
oarl Over $300,000.
St. Louis, January 27. State officials
have just discovered a bill against the St.
Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company
for over 5500,000. A few days ago a com
munication was received at the Governor's
office notifying the executive that on next
Friday the right of the State ot Missouri to
sue the St. Louis and San Eranciseoon three
notes aggregating 300,000, and bearing 6
per cent iuterest since 18G8, would expire.
This was news. A messenger was at once
dispatched to the office of Attorney General
Wood, who, upon investigation, found that
the notes were originally given by the old
South Pacific, and afterward assumed by
the St Louis and San Francisco. It is
chimed that the notes are outlawed, and
this new aeita'.ion is the outcome of the per
sonal fight in the general office of the
"Frisco."

The first Idea of anything wrong was the sway
ing of the cars, followed oy the front end of
the sleeper going over the embankment. There
was a crash and a shock that threw the pas
sengers from one end of the car to the
other, out of one berth into another,
and demolishing everything In the car. A
gentleman kicked out a window thron"h
which a number made their exit. Others, see
ing that there was no immediate dancer to
those In the sleeper, dressed themselves, and
then sought the open air. On emereing from
the sleeper it was discovered that the coach i m
inediately in front had been badlv wrecked, be
cause in leaving the bridge the front end
Ftrnck the embankment approach, completely
demolishing that end of the car. overturmne
the stove In which a fire was burning. The car
immediately took fire, flames spreading with
great rapidity, and in a moment enveloping
the entire structure. Those who had escaped
from the other coaches, and were able to work,
began assisting those In the burning coach to
free themselves.
The first persons taken out were two ladies
both dead. Then Mrs. Oldham and little boy!
of Sheridan. Two other children of this lady
were still in the car, and, the mother noting this
fact, although badly injured, made a desperate
effort to return to the burning coach. Being
dissuaded In this, she appealed to the bystand
ers to rescue her children. By this time the
train from the south arrived and the passen
gers fell to work, urged on by the frantic ap
P'i of the dying and injured, to give them
relief. Every one who could worked with a
will.
FUTILE EFFORTS AT RESCUE.
Axes were procured and a determined effort
made to get the dead and dying out, but the
eBorts proved futile, as the flames spread so
rapidly the work had to ba abandoned in a few
minutes. There was a scene of wildest con
fusion. The deck of the bridge was com
pletly demolished, the ties displaced, rails
bent, twisted and broken, piles splintered and
broken off, and all the caw so badly wrecked
that no parts of them can ever be utilized.
As to tne cause of the wreck, Mr. Collins
says heis positive it was due to the spread
ing of the rails within 15 feet of the bridge.
"It was terrible, terrible," said J P
Altizer. a young Chicago travclinc L,
who was one ot the through passengers on
the ill-fated train. "I was in the ladies
day coach which contained about 14
persons and I believe that I am
the only one of that number who escaped
serious injury. We were running at a great
rate of speed, nearly 50 miles an hour, I be
lieve, when the crash came. For an instant
I could hardly realize what had happened. I
was thrown violently to the floor and the car
was filled with dense volumes of smoke and
dust. The third seat ahead of me had been
cccupied by a mother and her two little
boys, both of them particularly bright little
fellows.
"The stove fell upon the trio and their
cnes could be heard above the confusion of
noises that followed. They were fairly
roasted alive. I could do nothing for tbem,
but as soon as I regained my feet I rushed
to the other end of the coach where three
women had been pinioned between two
seals and carried one of them ont. I
was returning for the others when
I was joined by a fellow
pasenger who, though badly hurt, gladly
volunteered to assist in the rescne. The
shrieks or the dying and injured were awful
to hear, and the scenes which followed the
crash were horrible beyond description. I
was very fortunate, only receiving a slight
cnt on mr neck and a few bruises, which
make me feel a little sore. I think the train

IS Nature's effort to expel foreign sub
stances from the bronchial passages.
Frequently, this causes inflammation
and the need of an anodyne. No other
expectorant or anodyne is equal to
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. It assists
Nature in ejecting the mucus, allays
irritation, induces repose, and is tho
most popular of all cough cures.
" Qf the many preparations before tha
public for the cure of colds, coughs,
bronchitis, and kindred diseases, there
is none, within the range of my experi
ence, so reliable as Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral. For years I was subject to colds,
followed by terrible coughs. About four
years ago, when so afflicted, I was ad
vised to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral and
to lay all other remedies aside. I did
so, and within a week was well of my
cold and cough. Since then I have
always kept this preparation in the
house, and feel comparatively secure."
Mrs. L. Ii. Brown, Denmark, Miss.
"A few years ago I took a severe cold
which affected my lungs. I had a ter
rible cough, and passed night after
night without sleep. The doctors gavo
me un. I tried Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
which relieved my lungs, induced sleep,
and afforded the rest necessary for the
recovery of my strength. By the con
tinual use of the Pectoral, a permanent
cure was effected." Horace Fairbrother,

gi8 to 35 Jackets at $10 to 15.
$7S Wraps at $35 the loss is
enormous, but the mild winter did
it, and fashion, coupled with our
determination, regulates that we
show new styles every season, and
this season's goods must all go.
We're determined to push this sale this week for all that's in it The
offerings are bona fide and the bargains are as great, if not actually
greater than any we've offered before, and certainly away and beyond
what any other dealer in this city has the nerve and grit to give the pub
lic. We have a big stock, and we have been in business long enough to
know that there is but one way to reduce it, and that is to cut prices to
rock bottom.
Don't Put Off! Delays Are Dangerous!

THE CHILD CAN BUY AS CHEAPLY AS THE PARENT.
