Engine Crew Missing He pointed out that Engineer W. M. Shaw of Newcastle. Pa., and Fire man O. C. Douthltt of Youngstown. Ohio, .had disappeared. "We couldn't find them In the cab." he. said. "Of course, they might be burled beneath the engine. We have heard also that they got out all right. Disconnected from their pilot after It plunged down the embankment, the cars were shoved past by the momentum of their speed, estimated by some passengers to be between 36 and 40 miles an hour. The combination express -smoker dived off an embankment 600 feet past the engine, resting Us front down on the ground and lta rear on the track bed. The diner remained upright. The day coach knocked down the signal tower and was bur led In the debris. It Is here the bodies are feared burled. Sleepers Turn Over The two sleepers turned over, one above the engine and tender, the other against a three-story building, knocking down large piles of bricks. Dazed by the tragedy, the survivors of the ill-fated "No. 1638" told their stories from hospital cots. Men, paled by the nearnens of stories of the plunging steel giants death, and women, hysterically hold ing nondescript pieces of clothing to bleeding wounds, trudged through knee-deep snowdrift to shelter after the wreck. Only three minutes more and It wouldn't toave happened. The New York bound train would have com pleted Its run Into the union sta tion about 0:36. Felt Train Buckle J. S.
