OVER A SCORE PERISH
MANY OTHERS INJURED IN COL*
LISION ON THE DENVER AND
RIO GRANDE.
Failure of an Operator to Oeliver a
Message Sends Past Trains To­
gether, Wrecking a Number of
Coachee—Pire Breaks Out in the
Ruins and Imprisoned Passengers
Are Burnsd to Death.
Pueblo, Colo., March 17.—Failure by
telegraph operator to deliver a mes
sage to the crew of a Denver and Rio
Grande passenger train resulted in a
head-on collision with another passen
ger train near Florence, Colo., early In
the morning. At least twenty-one
lives were lost and twenty-three per
sons were injured. Many of the
corpses were consumed by the Are,
which swept the wreck, and it is
doubtful If a full list of the casualties
will ever be known.
The wreck was accompanied by hor
rors only slightly less than those of
the Eden disaster, which occurred
Aug. 7,1904. on the same line. The
flames followed the collision almost
Instantly and those who failed to
reach the doors or windows at once
were deprived of all chance for life.
8ome were smothered by the first
burst of Are following the explosion
of the gas tanks on the cars, but many
were caught by broken seats and tim
bers and incinerated by Inches.
The trains were the Utah-California
express No. 3, westbound from Denver,
and the Colorado-New Mexico express
No. 16 eastbound from Leadville and
Grand function. They met on a
sharp curve and were less than 200
yards apart when the engineers dis
covered that a collision was Imminent.
Walter Coslett, engineer of the west
bound train, used every possible
means to prevent the crash and went
to his death with his hand on the
throttle, faithful to his charge. This
much is vouched for by his fireman, J.
H. Smith, who, seeing the useiessness
of remaining, jumped and saved him
self. The engine crew of the east
bound train died at their posts.
BODIES REDUCED TO ASHES.
Death List in Colorado Disaster Esti
mated at Thlrty-elx.
Pueblo, Colo., March 17.—While the
exact number of lives lost in the
Adobe wreck near Florence on the
Denver and Rio Grande railroad will
never be known it undoubtedly will
take rank among the great disasters
in the history of railroading. Con
servative estimates on the loss of life
place the number of dead at thirty
six. Seventeen bodies are in Pueblo
morgue, two are in the morgue at Flor
ence, several other persons are known
to be dead and possibly a score of
bodies were burned to athes.
S. F. Lively, the operator whose
failure to deliver the train order that
resulted In the collision, has not yet
been arrested and it. Is considered
probable that no action against him
will be taken until after the coroner's
Inquest. Lively says of his failure to
deliver the train order:
"I was asleep that's all."
It is asserted that Lively had worked
for several days without sleep.
TWELVE LIVES LOST
SNOWSLIDE NEAR SILVERTON,
COLO* ADDS TO CA8UALTY
LIST OF BIG STORM.
Denver, March 20.—By the loss of
twelve lives in a snowslide near Sil
verton during the day the death roll
resulting from the great storm of the
past week in the San Juan mining dis
tricts has been increased to at least
fifteen.
At Sllverton, at the Camp Bird mine,
a few miles from Ouray, and at Coal
Basin on the western slope, hundreds
of miners, their wives and their chil
dren are facing starvation. Mills and
other mining property estimated to bo
worth $1,000,000 have been swept to
destruction in deep gulches. The cat
tle on a thousand hills are reduced to
skin and bones.
On Cumbres pass, the highest ioint
on the narrow gauge road from Duran
go to Alamosa, a trainload of passen
gers is marooned, dependent for
warmth on a meager supply of coal in
the engine tender, and for food on
what hardy mountaineers can bring
them with snowshoes.
Railroad traffic Is paralyzed and
telephone and telegraph communica
tion is Interrupted over half of the
state.
USING REPRESSIVE MEASURES.
Russian Government Trying to Stop
Strike Agitstien.
St. Petersburg, March 19.—The gov
ernment Is using the most repressive
measures to stop the agitation for a
strike of railway men and telegraph
ers. A meeting of the former at
Rostoff-on-Don was surrounded and
Invaded during the day by Cossacks,
who Ared into the assemblage, killing
two persons and wounding eight.
At Moscow troops are now guarding
all the railway stations and several
factories, including the Abrikosoff
works, where the workmen are restive.

Just Differences.
Indianapolis, March fO.—That there
will be a secoud conference of the coal
operators nnd miners of the central
competitive district, comprising Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois and Western Pennsyl

ing the afternoon when the operators
adopted a resolution setting forth
their willingness to meet representa
tives of their employes. Subsequent
arrangements between J. H. Winder,
the newly elected chairman of the
operators, and President John Mitchell
of the Min* Workers Axed the first
session of the joint conference for 10
o'clock in the morning.
Following the retirement of F. L.
Bobbins, president of the Pittsburg
Coal company, as chairman of the ope
rators and the election of J. H. Win
der of Ohio as his successor, a resolu
tion was adopted providing that the
operators of the various states should
elect their own spokesman and that
there shall be no ofllcial representa
tives of the four slates collectively
either in jolat convention or Joint
scale committee.
