The engineer of the Burlington train
stopped at Soath Cheney for orders.

On the body of Professor Fulmer was
found an accident insurance card, pro
viding for $25,000 insurance in case of
death on the trip. The policy was ob
tained just before he boarded the train
at Pullman, Wash.
Railroad officials tonight were un
able to assign the cause of the colli
tion. An investigation has been begun
by J. L Deforce, division superintend
ent of the Northern Pacific, and by the
County Coroner.
No. 42 had been at Cheney Station
for some time when, without warning.
the engine of No. 2 crashed into the
rear car. which was a steel chair car
with no passengers. This chair car
crushed into the Pullman, Crookston,
telescoping almost the whole length of
the car, carrying, berths, bedding, fur
niture and passengers in front of it.
Only the front tier of berths escaped.
The porter happened to be in the
aisle making up berths, and the front
of the crushing car carried him ahead
without injuring him to any extent.
Most of those killed were mangled
frightfully.
In one case the head, body and left
leg were crushed through a window,
the right leg being caught under the
telescoped car and when he was found
his body was practically split length

One of the men who was taken from
the wreck alive was able to call for

Suspected Vessels Are Said to Bo
Disguised as Neutrals, but Un
able to Make Much Speed.'
PARIS, Feb. 20. (Special.) The cap
tain of the French liner Chicago re
ceived two wireless messages when his
vessel was nearing the Bay of Biscay,
warning him of the presence of enemy
corsairs. One message was from the
captain of the Lafayette and the other
was from the French land wireless
station.
On the night of February 17, about
o'clock, a vessel suddenly appeared
off the Chicago's starboard bow about
three miles away. There was a heavy
mist, so the outline of the vessel was
indistinguishable, but she carried all
lights and immediately signaled to the
Chicago to heave to. The captain
promptly ordered full steam ahead and
the stranger gave chase for a quarter
of an hour, but the Chicago was mak
ing 17 knots and quickly outdistanced
her.
The captain of the Chicago is sure
it was a German raider, because the
wireless warnings said the raiders
were vessels disguised as neutral mer
chantmen carrying lights at night, but
able to do only about 14 knots. The
Chicago sailed from New York for
Bordeaux on February 11.
Many Americans sailing on the steam
ship from Bordeaux on her previous
trip on January 2 received anonymous
warnings that an attempt was to be
made to sink the vessel.

Follies Dance Nearly Upset When
Pantalettes Also Show Up.
The lamp-shade hose, that dernier
cri in women's wearing apparel, al-
most upset the Follies Dance at Chris
tensen's Hall Friday night. It all but
disrupted the party. Some there were
who were outspoken that it was going
"Just a little too far."
But when a pair of pantalettes (or
would 'you call it a pantalette gown?)
came tripping into ;he room, the more
sedate threw up their hands and
waited for the worst.
But that was all, and when the as
tonished ones got second breath, the
excitement was lost in the dance.
The Follies ball is a high school set
affair largely, and the advent of the
lamp-shade hosiery was almost too
much.
For the benefit of the uninitiated
the lamp-shade hose takes its name
from its peculiar hovering and drooping
around the shoe tops.

(War Correspondent of the Chicago Tribune,
Returned From the Russian Front, r ud.
llshed byArrangement.)
In the final retreat of the Russian
army from Warsaw, as in m" others
that I have accompanied, or rather,
preceded, in Russia there was nothing
in the faces of the men to indicate
whether they were retiring or advanc
ing. Wednesday, August 4, Warsaw's
last day, we left early in my motor
and ran down to the position where the
Thirty-sixth Corps, now reinforced by
the Thirty-fifth, was standing between
the Germans and the Russian line of
retreat.
It was a perfectly still day, with
hardly a cloud In the sky. Save for the
dull booming of the guns over on the
river there was peace everywhere.
During the morning there was scarce
ly any movement on the Lublin-War
saw road, which was the line of com
munication of the Thirty-fifth and
Thirty-sixth Army Corps.
Almost No Confusion Seen.
When we turned into the main road"!
from Sedlice to Warsaw the evacuation
was under full head. I suppose during
the entire rftreat this afternoon was
the nearest to confusion; how slight
this was is, I think, made clear by the
fact that, though I was going back to
the- town and the tide was 'flowing the
other way, there was never such
density as to stop my motor or cause
me to reduce speed below 15 miles an
hour. This, then, was the "rout" of
the Russians at Its high tide.
It was after 6 when we came over
the hills that looked down on Warsaw
that so many times before had greeted
us on the return from scores of trips.
But now a glance showed that the city,
which we who had followed its des
tinies for a year had come to love was
doomed.
At the end or the beautiful new
bridge hung one of our observation
balloons, while a couple of miles up
the river the big German shells were
bursting with terrific detonations, lit
erally spurting buildings into the air.
Our own batteries, down to their last
shots, replied only occasionally or; as
n many places, not at all.
Warsaw was passing from us and,
