' The circus train was jrns lit and the
gas ri'li-iced hy the broken pipes was
instantly ignited trom Hie burning
jels ami from the fire box of the lo
comotive. l. W. Landman, (renornl passenger
agent of the Michigan Central, said
that his only explanation of the
wreck was that the engineer of the
train of empties must have been dead
at the Hi roll to.
Ignored Danger Signals
"In no other way can I account for
the fnct that he ignored all the us
ual danger signals placed by the cir
cus Iriiin," said Mr. Landman. . "lie
run pict two block signals, two red
li-.'ht sitmnlH and the ' usual fusett
placed between the'rilils'and throwing
off n brilliant red light visible for a
loiijr distance in the darkness. This
engineer is inissin. It is the worst
wreck in the history of the road, I
believe."
Heavy loss in dead and injurerd is
said to have occurred among the bul
let of 100 girls.
Daylight was just Ix-jiinninj; to show
when the crash came. Those thrown
free from the wreck and not render
ed unconscious stood near the wreck
in their night clothes, helpless while
their comrades perished in the flames.
Surgeons and nurses were dis
patched from Chicago, Gary, Ham
mond, Whiting and other nearby
towns. ,
A rescue party from lli'lninoncl
found one woman clad only in night
clothes pinned beneath a rail with
her head between two ties. She was
drugged out and when the dirt and
sand was washed from her face, he
opened her eyes, and soon afterward
wus found to be unhurt except for a
broken nose and bruised face.
Bucket Brigade Formed
Huc.kct brigades svero formed in an
effort to iiicncli the fire iind shortly
beforo 1 1 n. ni. a lead of hose wus
strung-'to the wreck) ; . ' N . .,
(hie woman screaitiinir m aaonv be
neath the burning tenbers, when she;
saw the flames neiirinff those who'
were trying to release her, -shouted :
"Get away! Get away! Quick, or
yoii'll get burned too." The rescuers
ere unable to release the woman nnd
her cries were stilled by tho flumes.
According to the Michigan Central,
it was reported that the firemmu
whose name was G. Krause.'ot Mich
igan City, Ind., lad gone temporarily
inMine from shock The engineer was
I,. Sargent, of Jackson, -Mich.
Manager Gollman of the show,
which exhibited under canvas nt
Michigan City, Ind., last night nnd
