Prince Henry and the distinguished
party accompanying them were enthu-

platform built just back of the bow of
the Meteor. Without delay after greet-

of a silver covered bottle containing
German champagne, broke it on the
side of the vessel. Immediately she
seized a silver axe and severed the rope

ROCHESTER. N. Y.. February 25—-
As a result of a collision on the Au-
burn division of the New York Central.
seven miles west of Auburn. between
west-bound passenger train No. 211
and a steam derrick late last night,
seven tralnmen' are dead and two oth-
ers are r ported missing. The dead:

passenger train.

JOHN HEYSMAN. engineer. of this
city.

ENGINEER DURAND, of Syracuse.
JOHN NEVANS. member of derrick
crew.
JOE SCHUMACHER. lineman. of this
city.
Seriously injured:
Edward H. Renner. trainman. had
right leg amputated at Auburn city
hospital. at 4 o'clock this morning.
Chances for recovery said to be fair.
Samuci Schmucke. in Auburn city
hospital.
As train bio-211. the west-bound
passenger. was rounding a curve a few
miles west of Aurelius, going at a fast
clip. it met a steam derrick running
“wild" to Syracuse. There was an
awful crash, followed by the sound of
escaping steam and then silence. Con-
ductor George Killlp. of this city. of
the passenger train hastened forward.
Scattered about was the wreckage of
the two engines which were so badly
smashed that it was impossible to tell
one from the other. From the head
end of the train could be heard cries
for help. and assisted by passengers of
his train Conductor Killip began “the
work of rescue. Engineer Hcysman
and his fireman. of the passenger train.
were pinioned “tinder the wreckage.
and after an hour's work were taken
out dead. The other dead men were
removed from the heap of wreckage at
various intervals and laid alongside the
truck to await the wrecking trains.
which were sent out from Rochester.
Geneva and Syracuse. From all that
could be learned in this city, this morn-
ing. the westbound passenger train
had the right of the truck from Aurci~
ins. and had instructions to meet first
No. 32s. the cast-bound passenger
train. at that point. This was done and
after the enst’bouud passenger train
passed. the west-bound passenger train
again started for this city. They were
late, and were going at a fast rate of
speed when the two trains came toge—
thcr. The point where the wreck oc-
curred is due high lip-hill grade.
None of the passengers ware injured.
This is due possibly to the pdssengcr
train being so heavy that it ploughed
right through the derrick train. which
consisted of only an engine, tender and
flat car. on which was the steam dcr-
rich and a caboose.
