carrying down the bamboo booses
which line the shore, with hundreds of
occupants, who were unable to escape.
Most of these, iUs said, wars women
and children.
Driven panic-stricken from their
homes by the quake, it waa some time
before the tobabitanto realised the
predicament of the families to the
poorer quarter. Fires which started
gained ft good headway, and these
added to the death list.
The total number of dead to Aeapulco

details from there tonight over Federal

Ayutia and Cbilpa, and It is said seve
ral people were killed to each place,

Spokana, Wash., Aug. 8. Thirteen
persons were killed and 88 more or leas
eriously Injured to a head-on trolley
car coll is ion Satnrday afternoon, at
Coldwell, on the Spokane and Coeur
d'Alene branch of the Spokana A Idaho
railway, 88 milea east of Spokane.
OfBialsef the line nave not made a
statement as to responsibility for the
wrack. It hi said the eaetbound train
did not take a sidetrack aa it bad been
ordered. It to incomprehensible why
the motorrnon did not avoid the col
lision, as the accident occurred on a
straight track. The motorman of the
westbound train Is among the dead.
Both trains were running at high
speed, especially the westbound train,
and were presumably beyond control.
The wrecked cars were ground to
gether to one confused mass. Tba in
juries are of all kinds. Legs and anna
are broken and beads and bodies ere
crashed. Bruleee and scratches from
sDlintered wood and broken slaea are
numerous,' and Internal hurts, which it
la feared will swell the list of fatalities,
were tofl looted.
The first ear of the train, the smok
er, was so smashed that nothing but
the trucks remained. It was crowded
with men and scarcely one of them es
caped alive and uninjured.
This is the Art.sertoos wreck to the
history of the road. The track was
cleared to about an boar and a half.
