on this occasion for all events prior to the crash are forgotten by those who were involved The motor car was struck directly in the center by the engine of the train which was going at a high rate of speed The accident came without the slightest warning The car was upon the tracks before the train loomed in sight aud no power on earth could have saved it The motor man evidently saw the train ap ¬ proaching as he reached the track and opened his controller but in vain With a crash that was heard for blocks the engine struck into the lighter vehicle The effect was horrible The motor car parted in two both sections being hurled into the air in splinters The mass of human itj- - for the car was crowded to overflowing was torn and mangled Those in the front of the car met with the worst fate The force of the collision was there exper- ienced ¬ to the greatest degree and every human being in that section of the car was killed The scene was horrible Bodies had been hurled into the air and their headless and limbless trunks were found in some cases 50 feet from the crossing v v The pilot of the engine was smashed and amid its wreckage were tho maim- ed ¬ corpses of two women The passengers of the train Suffered no injury in addition to a violent shock The majoritj of the passengexs ot the trolley car were young people They included many women Within ten minutes after the col- lision ¬ fully one half of the population of the city were surging about the vicinity in an endeavor to ascertain if relatives were among the unfortu- nates ¬ The injured weve taken to the city hospital and to the Continental knit ¬ ting oiill the former not having suffi ¬ cient ambulance service to caft for them all The corpses were placed in boxes and taken to a neighboring mill shed Many of them were unrecognizable The crash was frightful in its results Headless women with gay summer dresses bathed in their own and the bloed of others limbs without trunks or any means of identifying to whom they belonged womens and mens heads with crushed and distorted fea ¬ tures bodies crushed and flattened these sights constituted a spectacle most horrible t behold The train of the Delaware and Hud ¬ son road immediateh1- - after the acci- dent ¬ proceeded to Troy The en- gineer ¬ stated that he did not see the car until he was upon it He tried to prevent his train from striking the car but his efforts were fruitless His train was going at a very high rate of speed at the time He was some minutes late and was trying to make up lost time In con- sequence ¬ of the caution taken by the trolley road to ascertain if the tracks were clear at this crossing the engi- neers ¬ of trains have always felt safe in running by at a high rate of speed The engineer says that the first he knew that the car was coming was when it hove in sight at the corner of the street at which the crossing is situated He was but a short distance from the car at the time It was utterly impossible for him to brine his train to a standstill No Yellow Fever ac Mobile Mobile Ala Sept 0 There is no yellow fever in Mobile and no cases of a suspicious nature The health of the city was never better and tho death rate is the lowest in years Any reports to the contrary are utterly without foundation Chairman Chapman To Resign Columbus Oi Sept 6 It is reliably reported that H L Chapman will re sign the state executive chairmanship nest week He coid not be found Mon4ay but itis said tpbe tnie Xk Bt War JUwa Thm LoniBTille Courier Journal is noy publishing the fullest most acenrata and most reliable war news of any paper in the South or West It is devoting all its energies to making a reputation for its war reports and is certainly succeed- ing ¬ admirably The Courier Journal has subordinated all other issues to that of the war Politics money civil ser- vice ¬ the tariff all are out of it now The war is the one topic discussed by the people and they want the news of it fresh and accurate The Courier--Journ- al realizes this and it is supplying the demand as no other paper can do The Twice-a-Wee- k Courier Journal prints the cream of the daily news It is issued Wednesday and Saturday The price has recently been cut from 1 to 50 cents a year making unquestion- -

EIGHTEEN PEOPLE KILLED

Ten Others Will Die as the Result of aCollision Between a Train and a

Trolley Car

Cohoes N Y Sept 6 An appal-ling

¬

disaster occurred in this cityShortly before 8 oclock a trolley carof the Troy City Bailroad Co wasstruck by the night boat special of theDelaware Hudson railroad at acrossing at the west end of the Hudsonriver bridge which connects this citywith Lansingburg and its load of hu¬

man freight was hurled into the airEighteen of the 35 passengers are deadand at least ten of the remainder willdie

The cars entering the city fromLansingburg were crowded with pas-sengers

¬

returning from a Labor daypicnic at ILensslaer park a pleasureresort near Trov Car No 192 of thethe Troy City railroad was the victimof the disaster It came over thebridge about 735 oclock laden with amerry party of people fresh from theenjoyment of the day

Four tracks of the Delaware andHudson road which runs north andsouth at this point cross the twotracks of the trolley road

The tracks of the street line run ata grade from the bridge to the pointwhere the disaster took place

In consequence of this fact and ofthe frequent passage of trains it hasbeen the rule for each motor car conductor to stop his car and go forwardto observe the railroad tracks and sigaal his car to proceed if no trainswere in sight It can not be ascer-tained

¬

whether that rule was compliedwith- - on this occasion for all eventsprior to the crash are forgotten bythose who were involved

The motor car was struck directly inthe center by the engine of the trainwhich was going at a high rate ofspeed The accident came withoutthe slightest warning The car wasupon the tracks before the trainloomed in sight aud no power onearth could have saved it The motorman evidently saw the train ap ¬

proaching as he reached thetrack and opened his controllerbut in vain With a crash thatwas heard for blocks the enginestruck into the lighter vehicle Theeffect was horrible The motor carparted in two both sections beinghurled into the air in splinters Themass of human itj-- for the car wascrowded to overflowing was torn andmangled Those in the front of thecar met with the worst fate Theforce of the collision was there exper-ienced

¬

to the greatest degree and everyhuman being in that section of the carwas killed

The scene was horrible Bodies hadbeen hurled into the air and theirheadless and limbless trunks werefound in some cases 50 feet from thecrossing v

v

The pilot of the engine was smashedand amid its wreckage were tho maim-ed

¬

corpses of two womenThe passengers of the train Suffered

no injury in addition to a violentshock

The majoritj of the passengexs otthe trolley car were young peopleThey included many women

Within ten minutes after the col-

lision¬

fully one half of the populationof the city were surging about thevicinity in an endeavor to ascertain ifrelatives were among the unfortu-nates

¬

The injured weve taken to the cityhospital and to the Continental knit¬

ting oiill the former not having suffi¬

cient ambulance service to caft forthem all

The corpses were placed in boxesand taken to a neighboring mill shedMany of them were unrecognizableThe crash was frightful in its resultsHeadless women with gay summerdresses bathed in their own and thebloed of others limbs without trunksor any means of identifying to whomthey belonged womens and mensheads with crushed and distorted fea¬

tures bodies crushed and flattenedthese sights constituted a spectaclemost horrible t behold

The train of the Delaware and Hud ¬

son road immediateh1- - after the acci-

dent¬

proceeded to Troy The en-

gineer¬

stated that he did not see thecar until he was upon it He tried toprevent his train from striking thecar but his efforts were fruitless Histrain was going at a very high rate ofspeed at the time

He was some minutes late and wastrying to make up lost time In con-

sequence¬

of the caution taken by thetrolley road to ascertain if the trackswere clear at this crossing the engi-neers

¬

of trains have always felt safein running by at a high rate of speedThe engineer says that the first heknew that the car was comingwas when it hove in sight atthe corner of the street at which thecrossing is situated He was but ashort distance from the car at thetime It was utterly impossible forhim to brine his train to a standstill
