[Continued From First Pajto]
All of those killed were In the ear

crushed to pieces.
Utnnir llnrrlnbiirK Knxinrrr
An official of the Pennsylvania Rail
road here said the list of dead may
exoeed twenty, as fourteen bodies have
been recovered and nt least six are
known to be dead In tl>e wreck.
At this time the railroad company Is
inclined to place the blame for the
wreck on the enginer of the freight. A.
T. Cook, of Harrisburg, who had a
leg crushed. It was his duty, said an
official, to get off nis engine, walk
ahead, and look at a signal in case of
fog. rather than run past it.
Chester A. Minds, who, with his fam
ily, was killed, was a coal operator
in the Clearfield region of Pennsylvania,
lie was traveling to Utica, N. Y.. to
attend the funeral of his wife's father.
Minds was a football star on the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania team and a
brother of John H. Minds, a Philadel
phia attorney, famous years ago as
captain of the Pennsylvania team.
The express is sahi to have arrived
at Mount Union station I-' minutes .late,
with brake trouble. It was held there
while the trouble was remedied, it is
declared, and the signal to start had
been given when the "preference"
freight crashed into •'.he rear sleeper.
Clnlm* Siftnnl Showed "White"
Cook, the freight engineman, who had
only recently been promoted to the i
throttle, it was said, declared that the
block signal at "Ml"' tower, a mile and j
half from Mount Union, showed white, j
indicating a clear track. Ills fireman ;
and brakeman, who were in the cab i
when the tower was passed, are re
ported to have told him It was green, j
which would indicate that another j
train was in the block.
Xenr Warrior Wreck.
Wrecking crews and relief trains ;
with physicians, nurses and all tirst- '
aid equipment, were rushed to the ,
scene of the wreck within an hour i
after it happened.
The wreck occurred within ten' miles ;
of the scene of the disastrous wreck •
at Warrior Ridge, six miles west of '
Huntingdon, a few years ago. In that!
wreck an all-steel, train fell down j
the embankment to tlie bank of the j
Juniata river. Several were killed and !
many passengers were injured.
Harrisburg Engineer
The passenger train, wliica left j
Pittsburgh at 7 o'clock last night fori
New York und known as the Mercan-:
tile Express, had stopped at Mount)
Union to discharge passengers and
was testing the airbrakes when the
< ollision occurred. It carried four (
sleepers, two mail cars and a com- j
lunation day coach. The freight
Ploughed into it with such force that;
the rear sleeper, the Bellwood. was
completely cut in twain. The other [
sleepers were partly telescoped, but:
aside from a terrilie snaking up none of
their occupants was hurt. All were of
steel construction and were wedged J
together so tightly that it was several |
hours before workmen could extricate
the bodies of the victims. A. T. Cook. I
of Harrisburg, engineer of the freight'
train, was the only one of the freight
crew to sustain injury. His engine j
and six cars were wrecked and de- j
railed, several of the cars going over,
the embankment into the street.
A relief train carrying railroad offl- i
cials, physicians and nurses was rush- I
ed to the scene from this city and G. j
\V. Creighton, general superintendent \
left later to eouduct an investigation!
into the accident, the cause of which j
has not been determined. The relief |
train was pressed into service and to- ■
gether with train No. 4 took the pas- s
sengers who escaped injury, eastward.
Wrecking crews ' from Huntingdon, j
Mifflin and Denholm also were called j
out and it was necessary to raise two
of the sleeping cars vertically before!
the killed could be reached. Every oc- |
cupant of the rear sleeper is believed j
to have been killd.
l-'irst Fatality in Three Years
It was the first time in three years i
that a passenger has been killed in a j
wreck on the Pennsylvania railroad. :
The illfated passenger train, however, (
was the same one that was wrecked at ;
Mexico, Pa., last August when it ran
into a stock train, killing three em
ployes.
With the recovery of other bodies it |
was learned that four children with
Mr. and Mrs. Minds, instead of two, as j
at first reported, had lost their lives, j
Miss Maude Minds, a sister, and M. A. !
Caltisch, of Conifer. N. Y„ a brother- j
in-law of Minds; Mi i A. S. Veiling, |
Cleveland, the nurse, and Milton j
Hymes, of New York, wore also among
the victims.
Mercantile Kxpress left Altoona with ;
engine No. 748. The crew included con- !

Commission Engineers
to Investigate Wreck
By Associated Press
Washington. Feb. 27.—Interstate !
Commerce Commission engineers and i
exxaminers were ordered to Mount
Union, Pa., to investigate the wreck. |
Inspectors Duffy and Bromley, with
headquarters at Harrisburg, were be
lieved to be on their way to the scene !
when first reports of the wreck were
received here. Commission officials in
structed George Kills, chief signal en
gineer, with headquarters at Altoona,
and W. P. Poland, assistant chief sig
nal engineer, to go also.
Mail Clerk Deardorf
Says Train Was Held
Up By Failure of Air
J. F. Deardorf, of 142 North!
Thirteenth street, Harrisburg, rail
way mail clerk was working in the |
same car with Mr. Blecker and re
lated virtually the same tale. Sitting '
in his home this morning in a bath
robe and apparently very nervous he
told the following story to a Tele
graph reporter:
"Something had gone wrong with j
the air on the mail car, on which my- !
*. self and others were distributing mail
and the crew had stopped the train 1
at Mt. Union to disconnect the air
from our car. The conductor or
trainman had just completed the dis- I
connection and had stepped from be
tween the cars when something hit j
the rear end of our train with a
tremendous impact.. The train was
thrown up the track at least two j
car lengths, a distance of one hun
dred and twenty feet.
"I was thrown to the floor and i
struck my leg against the leg of a '
table. At the time T thought It was
broken but after a while was able to |
set to my feet. Mall was strewn over j
the car and my fellow workmen were
all badly shaken up, although none
were injured beyond a few bruises. I
"After helping arrange the affairs j
In the mail car. myself, with other
members of the crew went to the rear
of the train. While I had anticipated
TUESDAY EVENING,
something awful the sight which met
my eyes was horrifying. The cat
next to the rear was completely tele
scoped and was cut nearly in half, us
sliced with a knife. Parts of it were
laid across the tracks. The singular
nature of the accident was that the
rear car had been driven forward
with such impact that the car ahead
cut through it and the two appeared
as one car.
"Another strange thing was that I
could hear no sounds of moaning or
distress and at first thought that the
rear sleeper was unoccupied. I
learned later, however, that every
person in the car had been killed.
"I have figured in several wrecks
before but none so frightful as this."
Whiskey Blockade Runner
Captured After Fight
By Associated Press
Richmond. Va.. Feb. 27. The
State police boat. Commodore Maury,
last night fought and took the schoon
er Elizabeth Clark of Baltimore, in
the Rappahannock river, where the
schooner had been running the whis- \
ky blockade.
Captain Ike Boheeman, with his
mate, both wounded in the light, and
his crew, were lodged in Lancaster
county jail. Twenty cases of whisky
were seized on the schooner and the
patrol reported 200 eases had been
■sold at landings along the river.
The patrolboat cornered the whisky
schooner, becalmed in the ice of Ma
chodoc creek, and laid in wait for her.
After dark, in the face of a freshen
ing breeze .the schooner sought to
slip out on the ebb tide and the patrol
boat fought and took her in the mid
dle of the river.

By Associated Press
New York. Feb. 27.—Marine super- i
intendents of railroads with headquar
ters in this city to-day considered
plans for the speedy mobilization for
government use of the big fleet of
steel-constructed railroad tugs in New
York waters. Many owners of yachts!
also prepared to put their craft into ]
commission immediately for patroll- i
ing, mine sweeping, mine laying and
other auxiliary service for which the !
navy has not ships available.
This was in response to the appeal
of Franklin r>. Roosevelt, assistant sec- .
retary of the navy, in a speech here !
last night, for 10.000 men and 750
small boats to assist if need arise, In ;
guarding the Atlantic coast. At the.

Steadily Forcing Teutons Back;

Transport Sunk
6—BRITISH—LEAD WAR
Military operations of high import
ance are in progress on the Somme
front In Northern France, where the
British continue to push forward after
the retiring Germans. General Haig's
outposts, at last accounts, were but
three miles from the German strong
hold of Bapaunie and there is ap
parently yet no indication as to how
far the Germans intend to retreat be
fore taking up their.new line of de
fense.
Elsewhere except on the Tigris,
where the British are pursuing the
Turks westward after capturing Kut
el-Amara, military activities do not
appear to have been of major im
portance.
In the field of submarine activity
Berlin further announces the sinking
of the British transport Steamer A-19.
No indication of the tonnage of the
vessel or loss of life, if any. is given.
Take 22 Square Miles
Official announcement of the Ger
man withdrawal on the Ancre and the
British occupation of twenty-two
square miles of territory, including the
villages of Serre, Mlraumont, Pys,
Wurlencourt. was made last night.
The War Office statement says the
British forces have advanced over a
front of eleven miles to a depth of two
miles, and now hold a line on the out
skirts of Le Barque, Irles and Puisieux
au Mont. No claims of the capture of
prisoners br artillery are made.
Raids were carried out by the Brit
ish troops north of Arras and west of
Lens, while a German assault south of
the Somme was driven off with losses
to the attackers.
Berlin records the repulse of Brit
ish attacks east of Arras near Armen
tleres and the Avre, and the failure of
French assaults in the Champagne.
West of Verdun the French broke into
the enemy's lines, while north of 'fa
ilure a successful raid was undertaken.
in aerial encounters French aviators
brought down three German machines
and British fliers two more. Berlin
states that the allies lout eight air
planes in engagements yesterday.
Fourteen men were killed 'when "a
French airship was brought down Fri
dap night by anti-aircraft guns in Lor
raine.
The British Victory
The British stroke on the Ancre is
a happy augury of the allied military
operations in 1917. Whatever the rea
sons fo rthe retirement of Prince
Ruprecht's troops, whatever the de
velopments of the future, General
Gough, under the command of Haig,
has won a big victory, the most im
portant of the entire Somme and An
cre campaigns. Not since th ebegin
ning of trench warfare in the west
has so much ground changed hands,
voluntarily or involuntarily, in one
operation—and that with virtually no
casualties for the aggressors.
HARJRISBURG *££& TELEGRAPH
TRAGIC FEATURES OF
WRECK ARE SEEN IN
DEBRIS OF EXPRESS
Mt. Union, Pa.. Feb. 27. Per-1
haps the most tragic feature of the
wreck was the fate that befell a party |
of Ramey, Pa., people enroute to
. Utica, N. Y., to attend the funeral of
a relative. Composing \the family
were Chester A. Minds, a graduate of
the University of Pennsylvania, and a
coal operator, his wife, small son, .Miss
Maud Minds, a sister, Miss A. S. Dell
ing, of Cleveland, Ohio, M. A. Caltisch,
of Conifer, X. Y., a relative of the
coal operator's wife and three orphan
children. All were bound for Utica
to attend the funeral of Mrs. Minds'
father.
Just before going to their berths s
several of the Ramey people bid a j
cheery good-niglit to occupants of the
coach behind. In less than 40 minutes
the crash came.
Little is known here of Mr. Minds,
other than his connection with the
coal business in Clearfield county and
athletics. When at the University of
Pennsylvania, he was a leading spirit
in sports, winning numerous laurels.
Of all the occupants of the ill-fated
sleeper, Noah Bright, of Bellwood, the
colored porter, was the only one who
was sitting in an upright position at
the instant the eras heame. Bright's
body was one of the first recovered
this morning by the wreck crew. He
had evidently prepared to enjoy a
sleep with his chin resting on his right
228 Invalided Russian .
Soldiers in Train Wreck;
Many of Them Killed
fly Associated Press
London, Feb. 27.—A train carry- I
ing 228 invalided Russian soldiers who j
were on the way home from Germany
through Sweden, went off the track
late last night between Gefle and So
derhamn, says an Exchange Telegraph
dispatch from Stockholm. The first
car, carrying 23 insane Russian sol
diers, was demolished and all its pas
sengers wer killed. About 25 persons
in other cars were killed.
The work of rescue was made diffi
cult by the condition of the passeng- j
ers, most of whom were blind, had
lost arms or legs, or were otherwise ]
rendered incapable of helping them- !
selves. Their handships were in- ;
creased by the fact that the wreck I
occurred in darkness at a distance i
from any important town.
ATTACK IMPERIAL (iIWCKU.OK
By Associated Press
Amsterdam, Feb. 27. —According to I
a telegram from Berlin, thirty sup-1
porters of Admiral Yon Tirpitz, former
minister of the navy, including Count
Yon Hoensbroeck, have held a meet- [
ing to discuss a "change in the otilce |
of Imperial chancellor." It is said to:

hand, llts head was flattened almost
to a. pulp but the lifeles form was
still held In an upright position by
debris which closed in about it.
Among the few cool heads on the
wreck scene early was Cloyd Ewing.
a Mt. Union merchant, who assisted
the Pennsy officials and wreck crew
in identifying the victims. The first
problem that confronted the officials
was to get the names and addresses
of the dead. As each body was taken
from the wreckage, It was searched
for a name card or letters and all the
effects were carefully placed in separ
ate bundles. Presently these are
stored In the Mt. Union ticket office.
Perhaps the greatest difficulty was
experienced identifying the women. In
several instances their handbags were
crushed into bits and the searchers
relied mostly on stray letters.
When relatives of the victims come
to claim the bodies and take over
their effects, little difficulty will be
experienced in securing valuable pa
pers they happened to carry. Through
the system worked out by the search
ers everything Is in Its place.
All the members of the freight crew
were hurled from the train and
landed within a few feet of each
other along the tracks. Cook, the en
gineer, was the only one injured to
any extent, he sustained a sprained
ankle.
