A RAILROAD HORROR
FiiMfol Wreck on the Grand Trnnlr
Railroad.
LOSS pF LIFE WAS VERY LARGE
Coaches Took Fire and Many Were
Burned to Death Caused by
Disobeying Orders.
Battlk Crcek, :JIich., Oct. 20. A
frightful wreck and holocaust occurred
carly.this morning on the Grand Trunk
road a mile and a half from this city, in
which 35 to 40 lost their lives and scores
aro maimed. An east-bound special
train, loaded with returning world's fair
passengers, came in collision head-on
with a west-bound paesenger, causing a
disastrous smash-up. The wreck took
fire, and many of the wounded pinned
beneath the broken timbers and twisted
iron were burned to death. The respon
sibility for the accident is said to rest
with Conductor Scott and Engineer
Wooley, of the east-bound train, who
disobeyed orders by not stopping at
Nichols to let the west-bound pass.
Twenty-four dead bodies have been al
ready taken from the ruins, all terribly
burned and unrecognizable.
The killed, as far as known, are all
eastern people. The coaches of the
east-bound train burned completely up.
It is supposed fully as many are still in
the wreck as have been taken out.
Fully 40 were severely, if not fatally, in
jured. The east-bound train was a Ray
mond & AVhitcomb excursion returning
from Chicago, loaded with passengers
from New York and Boston. The loss
of life was in the west-bound train, not
the east-bound special as at first re
ported. Both engines were badly
wrecked, also the baggage car of the
east-bound train; but the rest of it,
being made up or sleepers, withstood
the shock and nobody in them was hurt.
SOMK FlilGHTKUL fcCE.VES.
The west-bound was made up of thir
teen day coaches, four of which com
pletely telescoped each other, and it
was here the most frightful scenes were
witnessed, as the cars at once caught
fire from the lamps and were consumed.
The trainmen saved themselves by
jumping, except Conductor Burk of the
west-bound train, who was caught be
neath the cars and badly hurt. Most of
the deaths occurred in one car, which
was telescoped by those in front and be
hind it in such a way as to pen the pas
sengers in like rats in a trap. The ac
cident was a mile from a fire station,
and before water could be turned on
and liremen get to work the cars weie
consumed. Twenty-live bodies were
taken frotuthis car alone as soon as the
fire was out. Nearly all had their
heads, arms or legs burned off and were
unrecognizable. They were mostly
piled up ill one end of the car, where
they were shoved by the telescoping of
the cars. Only eight or ten escaped
from tliis car. A horrible sight was
that of Mrs. Charles VanDusen of Fort
Plain, N. Y., who got half way out of
the window , but her legs got fastened so
that those who ran to her assistance
could not rescue her and she was burned
to death before their eyes.
One body lias been recognized as that
of E. Wirtz, from an uueousjjmed hand
kerchief found on it. Another' body
bore the business cards of A. A. Allan &
Co., Toronto. Charles Van Dusen,one
of the injured, died later. Mrs. J. 0.
Brady of Toronto is among the badly
hurt. So far, 20 bodies are recovered
from the wreck. The bodies are all so
charred it la iuiposfublo to identify them.
The wounded weroWken to tho hotels,
railroad offices and residences, and
cared, for by all the physicians in town.

THE SUN'S FIERCE RAYS.

Day Dio Out.
Somo
A Learned Opinion Is Tlmt In Tlmn the
Soiur T.IrL. anil Heat Will Vanish
Intu Utter Ilciilli mill
Ilnrkncx.
So far as our present knowledge goes
it would seem that the brightness of
any sunlike body is to be attributed
solely to the transformation in some
fashion of mechanical power into heat.
To take our own Min as an example.
It is now an assured doctrine that the
heat so necesbary for our welfare is
sustained by the gradual contraction
of the solar volume. The energy
available for transformation into heat
in this process seems sufficient to sup
ply the radiation of the sun, not only
for ages such as those wo reckon in
the human period, but even through
out a lapse of time so vart as that
which geology demands for the forma
tion of the earth's crust, v-Ues Sir
Robert Ball in the Forti-ightly Re
view. But it is certain hat the quan
tity of possible light and the beet to
bo dispensed by the sun is limited in
amount. The sun cannot shine on for
ever. A time must assuredly come
when the orb, at present so brilliant,
will have no more potency for the ra-
diation of light than is at present pos
sessed by the earth or the moon. In
like manner it can be shown that the
materials constituting the s-- have
not always been luminous. We can
not, indeed, say with certainty by what
influence their. brightness was origi
nally kindled. It probably arose from
a collision or an approach to a colli
sion, between two dark masses which
happened to come to an encounter with
enormous velocities in their progress
through space. It is, however, plain
that the agesduring which the sun has
been brilliant form only an incident,
so to speak, in the infinite history of
that quantity of matter of which the
solar system is constituted.
Notwithstanding the millions of
thousands of millions of years which
that matter has existed, it has, per
haps, only once become so heated, ow
ing to the circumstances which wc
may describe r.s accidental or casual,
as to have acquired tho ample light
dispensing power of the sun. It is,
however, possible, that such periods of
light-radiating capacity should have
occurred more than once; they may
XJossibly have occurred several times
throughout the ages of time past. Nor
is it likely that the last phenomena of
this kind Jiave yet arrived. The sun,
after the lapse of uncounted years,
will lose all its heat, and pass into a
black, dark muss. In that form it may
endure for an epoch so protracted that
the spell during- which it has acted as
he luminary of our system will appear
but a moment in comparison with the
dark ages which succeeded tho solar
splendor. But we can conceive that
the darkness, which is the doom of our
system, need not necessarily be eter
nal so far as its materials ai'3 con
cerned; it may he that again in the
course of its wanderings through space
the tide of chance may at length bring1
the dark and tremendous plobe so near
some other orb that another collision
should take place with appalling ve
hemence. The solid materials shall
again become transformed into a stu
pendous glowing nebula, and then, in
the course of the tedious contraction
of this nebula, another protracted pe
riod of brilliance will diversify the ca
reer of the great body, and may last
long enough for tho evolution of plan
ets and of whole races of highly or
ganized creatures. The essential point
of our present consideration must not
bo misunderstood. A little rejection
will show that any periods of bril
liance must be regarded as exceptional
periods in the history of each body.
