Direct Disobedience of Orders.
Direct disobedience of orders on the part
of a Chicago and Grand Trunk engine-er
and conductor, both of whom had seen
long service with the company and were
regarded as model employee, were the
cause of the tragedy.
‘11 Raymond & Whitcomb special train
of eight palace cars filled with caster:
folk, who had been taking in the sights of
of the \Vorld’s fair, left the 60th street de—
pot of the road at Chicago at 8:15 as the
first section of the night express, known
as No. 6. rl‘he train was in charge of
Conductor Burt N. Scott and Engineer
Harry Woolley, both residents of this
place.
All Went well until Battle Creek depot
was reached.
From here to the railroad yards, a dis-
tance of a mile and a half, there is 3V
double track. When the Whit-comb spe-
cial came to a full stop in the depot the
night operator handed Conductor Scott
two copies of an order for the train to pro-
cccd to the double track, east of Main
itret t, about half a- mile distant, and there ,
.wait the westbound Pacific express,
“‘lOWIl as No. 9.
The Coaches “’ere Old.
This train which was nearly three hours
i. .6 was composed of 13 day coaches and
two baggage cars. Most of the day coaches
had seen many years service and Were in
poor condition to withstand a collision.
Every one of the fated number was packed
with eastern people, the majority of whom,
taking advantage of the low rates were on
their way to take in the last week of the
exposition.
The Pacific express was in charge of
Conductor John Bird and Engineer Gil.
Cranshaw, both of whom had received or-
ders at Lansing to look out for the west-
bound train on the double track, and Were
accordingly on the alert.
After receiving orders at the Battle Creek
station Engineer Woolley proceeded up the
double track, but instead of stopping in
accordance with his instructions until the
westbound express had passed, he contin-
ued on and entered again on the single
track. He had hardly gone more than an
eighth of a mile when the Pacific express
was seen coming around the slight curve
behind the telegraph office of the railroad
yards. It was speeding westward at a
rate cf 40 miles an hour.
There was no time to apply air brakes Or
reverse levers.
Together, Head On.
The engineers and firemen on both trains
jumped for their lives and a secopd later
the giant locomotives came together with
a crash that could be heard a half mile
away. '
With fearful force the engine of the spe-
cial plowed nearly half way into that of
the express, driving it backwards into the
baggage car, and the latter in turn into
the (lay coaches behind.
The shock was so terrific that the first
four of these were completely telescoped,
the first coach cutting through the second
and the second into the third like a flash
5 lightning, the roof of each passing over
the heads of the sleeping passengers and '
sweeping in a mass to the north end of the
car. -
The “Week Takes Fire.
To add to the horror, the wreck took fire
from the stoves and as the flames mounted
up the groans and shrieks of the maimed
and injured were succeeded by heart-rend-
ing, agonizing cries and appeals for help
from the scores held down by the heavy
timbers, or held down by the seats and iron
framework.
The travelers on the special, nearly all
of whom had been shaken out of their
berths by the shock, poured out of the cars,
but before the fury of the flames they were
almost powerless to render any assistance
except to the injured in the fourth car.
Fire Alarm Sent In.
At the moment of the crash, Henry
Caniicld, one of the clerks (in the Grand
Trunk office a short distance away, pulled
the lire alarm box and also telphoned to
the engine house for aid. As ill-fortune
would have it, however, the key to the
tower was mislaid and several minutes
were lost before the alarm bell was sounded
to awaken the citizens.
The fire department was prompt in re-
sponding, but the nearest hydrant was
nearly two thousand reet away and when
a line of hose was laid, the pressure was
not sufficient to throw a. stream. Finally
a stream was secured from another by-
drant, the firemen meanwhile attacking
the blazing wreck with axes, hatchets and
lengths of rails found lying in the yards,
but by the time a supply of Water was
available the telescoped coaches had been
reduced to fragments of charred timber,
little more than the trucks remaining.
Rescuing the Dead.
The firemen then commenced the grew-
some work of recovering what remained of
the victims, the police taking charge of the
valuables and keeping the ' crbwds at a
listantse. ' . .- ' "

Read the lollowlng from a grateful mother:

so inflamed that his sufferings were intense, and
for seven weeks he

never doubted that it saved has signs, even

One of the Terrible Scenes.
No pen can describe the last moments
of Mrs. Charles Van Duseu. She had
subcecded in getting half way out of the
window, but herlimbs Were pinioned by
the heavy frame work of the seat she had
been occupying with her husband, and
this had taken fire. Thus held, roast-
ing from the feet up, she pleaded ' and
begged for the help that those outside
were helpless to give. Despite her terrible
last, and as the flames crept up and sur-
rounded her shc called out her name and
address and that of friends to be notified.
“I am a teacher in the Mvt‘nodist Sunday
school at Sprout Rock, N. Y.,” she crid;
“say that I died like 3. Christian.” Then
the side of the car gave way and she fell
back into the flames.
Her husband had meanwhile been res-
cued from the next car into which he had
been driven by the force of the collision.
130th limbs were fractured and he had also
received internal injuries. He retained
consciousness until his death, but was
kept in ignorance of the fate of his wife.
In his last breath he asked Rev. Dr. Geo.
B. Kulp to send his love to the two chil-
dren that he had left at home.
The sex of four of the bodies could not
even be conjectured until a medical man
had been called in to give his opinion.
The conductor and engineer lay the
blame on each other.

most of the plunder had been taken.

The Western Muse Pays Striking Tribute
to Her Eastern Sister.
A sweet and gentle poet of the east
was on a. visit to the wild and wooly
west, and one day he strolled into the
den of the editor of the local paper, a
stranger to him. After apleasunt'tulk
of some moments he noticed an ax, a
saw and a. try-square hanging over the
editor’s desk. ”
“MayI ask,” ho inquired, delicate-
ly, “if those are weapons of defense?”
“Kind or only,” replied the editor.
“That is, I use ’cm’on poetry.”
"Poetry?” repeated the bewildered
bard. ~
“Yes, poetry. You see we‘ve got to
have poetry in the paper, but a poet
can’t live out here if the people git on
to him; so we clip it out of eastern
magazines.”
“Ah,” interrupted the pleased poet,
“it is the newer wost’s tribute to the
older east.” ‘
“Call it that,” continued the’editor:
“we’ve got to have it just the same;
but, by gum! before we can make it fit
for our readers I’ve got to chop it and
saw it and square it up in dozens of
places. If I didn’t they’d clean the of-
fice out in two minutes, Look at this
rot, will you?” and the editor handed
the poets. proof of a. prepared poem
which broke his heart—4t was one of
his own—Detroit Free Press.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-—-Froux a sum—
mary of special telegrams and reports
Bradstreet s-Iys today: ‘
Still :luOl‘ c.21- business Week is rendered
conspicuous owing to the paralysis im-
posed on commercial and industrial opera.
tions by the rsvolutidusiry policy of the
minority in the senate. Larger . represen-
tative manufacturers, jobbers and whole-
salers in leading lines have been unable to
operate With reference to the future sup-
'ply 01' demand, and ti c result is that the
great iron and steel industries remain
practically on their backs, with no signs
of a revival in either demand or price; in
iron alone there is probably not more than
one third the output of a year ago; wool
is being sell at nonesssions from quota-
tions. and mill-owners are talking raw ma.-
terial for actual needs only; textile in—
dustries generally are not finding the bet-
ter demand rxpectezl at this time; leather
industries continue much depressed; cloth—
ing nmnniuctur-crs make unfavorable re-
pOIts on th: bus lie—s thus far this fall,
audfit some industrial centers,uo’al)ly Pat-
erson, N. J., .1. home of silk and iron fac-
tories and insils, the industrial situation
has advancul .st:.t..llly from bad to worse,
and the end is not yet.
On the Obllt‘l‘ side of the account may be
placed the relative activity in whiskey and
tobacco at western centers, and in rice and
cotton and fertilizers at some southcrncen-
ters, together with a heavy output of
wheat flour at northwestern points and
large shipments Of ‘. heat to market within
a. week. '
Prices of staples show an upward swing
of the pendulum with reference to wheat,
corn, oats, pork, coifee, cotton. rice, phos-
phate rock and naval stores.
Chief decreases in prices have been for
lard, hogs, cattle and wool.
Bank clearings, as telegraphed from all
cities reporting clearings, aggregate $934,-
000,000 this week, which, while it isagain
of 3.4 per cent. over the total the week be-
fore, is still 32 per cent. smaller than in
the third week of October, 1892, indicating'
a total volume of busidess, solar as it may
be measured in this manner, one third
smaller than a year ago.
The estimate of a. domestic wheat crop
this year amounting to 440,000,000 bushels
has been accepted by Beerbohm, the first
European authority on cereal statistics,
and is corroborated by a special investiga-
tion by a western agricultural paper. If
oliicial estimates are to prevail, our avail-
able export surplus is now within 15,000,-
000 bushels of being all exported. Exports
of wheat, and wheat flour as wheat, from
both coasts of the United. States and Can-
ada this week equal 2,709,000 bushels,
against 2,862,000 bushels last week and
3,189,000 bushels the week before, and as
compared with 3,270,000 bushels in the
week of 1892 and 3,500,000 in 1891.
Business failures in the United States
this week continue numerous. The total
is 340 against 406 last week, 216 in the
third week of October, 1892, 230 in 1891,
and 202 in 1890.
The New York stock market has dis-
played firmness on the expectation of de-
velopments in relation to silver-purchase
repeal, and became decidedly strong at the
close of the week on the prospect that
some definite result would soon be reached.
Speculation is entirely professional, but
the possibility of a settlement of a silver
controversy tends to create increased inter-
erst by the public here and abroad in rail;
road securities.
The receivership of the Union Pacific
railroad and the change of management in
the Northern Pacific company are without
general effectin view of the more import-
ant developments in the silver situation.

parties are in communicatibn with Register
Childs of the state land office respecting
a proposition to establish a. colony of a.
thousand families in Colorado or the
northeast. The survivors of the ,recent

lows as a result. There are several places

state lands, and this the board would not
be prepared to give them.
