Immigrant Train. ONLY SIX BODIES TAKEN FROM CARS Mistake Concerning Orders Causes Disaster on'Rail- rond-in Indiana. ValpariaNu, lnd., Nov. 12.—In s head-on collision between a pas senger truin heavily loaded with immigrants and a freight train on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, ten miles north of this city, at 2 o’clock a. m., fifty persons are be lieved to have’ lost their lives and a score or more will die’as the re sult of their frightful injuries. The emigrant train was hurled down an embankment and imme diately caught, fire. Few of the emigrants are believed to have es caped death or injury. The acci dent, it is declared, was the result of misdirection on the part of some train dispatcher who held the freight train at Chicago Junc tion, lnd., to let the emigrant train |IHSS. , * D**h»d Down Bank. Darned down the steep embank ment. the emigrant train was. ablaze In a minute. Engineer Renneman, of the paaaanger train; Fireman Caller, of the freight train, and Conductor l.ynder. of the passenger train, are among the Injured. . Trapped Lika Blrda in Cage. A moment after the heavy train left th. track .and ’ rolled down the em bankment some of the coaches burst Into flame*. There were 1ST paaaen- ftra In 4h*.eoaehe«, moat of them eml- frants bound for Chicago. All were ajlrep la the reclining clialre used In the emigrant coechea. Theec persons were trapped like birds In a rats, because ;ia the roaches rolled over they were thrown Into hegpe and many probubly fatally Injured. Within half Bn hour ufter the col lision all of the coachea were In flames. About 117 of the peaeengera had been dranged from the ruin, by the train crew* and other passengers who had —raped, slightly Injured. A short time latet three men were dragged Into the "pen ulr their bodies frightfully burned. They were still living, but ■ ould not survive their Injuries and the burns. 8ix Bodies Are Found. At 10 a. m. ala dead bodies had been recovered from the wreck. The i«senger train was composed of tlv« roaches and one express car. The torelgners were huddled close together in their coaches and all were asleep In their seats when the anrful crash came, grinding of coach wheels and the sl- uiultnneoua ahrleka .of. two engine «hl«tles. The next moment the pas senger. were hurled from their seats and frightfully crushed In the collaps ing roaches. The wreck occurred within u mile and ti uuarter of Woodvtlle, Ind. The ■ rash of the powerful engines and the .mashing of the wooden coaches was plainly heard for miles. As soon as It "as learned what had happened, the inn n... people of nearby stations hurried to the scene with all possible haste with supplies of all sorts. Physicians followed nnd within a comparatively "hort time they were working heroic ally about the now burning wreckage. Many 8*v*r*ly Burned. Of the 111 persons reecued more than naif were severely burned. It Is ru mored that many of the Injured were 5 > severely crushed and burned that about half of them will not recover. It is believed by some that the wreck "as the direct result of a misunder standing of orders on the part of one or the other of the train crews. RAWLINS SENTENCED TO HANG DECEMBER 3; PROTESTS INNOCENSE Says If Hanged His Blood Will be Judge’s Head. on- Special to The Georgian. . Valdosta. Ga., Nov. 12.—J. <5. Raw lins was this morning for the fourth lime carried Into the court and sen tenced lo be hanged. He was taken at 8:10 o'clock before Judge Mitchell at the court house, who fixed the date of the execution on Monday, December 3. Rawlins made a ten-minutes state ment, In which he declared that he was Innocent as the Judge of the crime with which he was charged. Ho told Judge Mitchell that tr he and his boys were hanged that tlieir blond would be on his (the Judge's) head If they were not granted a new trial. power to ghtnt .a new trial If he wanted to. Mrs. Rawlins, wife of the prisoner, was present. It Is understood that a request will be made of Governor Terrell to grant a respite to Alt Moore of three days longer In order that he and Rawlins may be hanged at the same time. Moore's execution Is now fixed for November SO. HELD FOR THEFT Washington, Nov. 12.—Nntwltbstand. lug the fact that his brother Is chief of police at Greensboro, N.. C„ und that his parents are prominent In that city, Felix McKnlght Cratchfleld, the 18- year-old actor, who {iaa been bald by (he \Vu«hIngt'U) authorities for the al leged theft of seven pairs of trousers nnd an overcoat at Cham be reburg, Pa,i was - yesterday handed over to Sheriff Charles E. Evans, of the latter place, who cook him back. Up to a year ago tha boy was a model son, and hfs future *eem«d bright. It Is said that he was engaged to a young woman In Greensboro, who suddenly broke off the engagement and married another yuung man of.that town. It was then that Crutchfield, according to several Washington friends, gave up a position he hail with a Greensboro con cern, and joined a theatrical company. MATCH FALLS ON BED: BEDDING 1 )E8TR0YED Th<* accidental dropping of n Hull ted match on u bed miiDcil the Iom of a.lot of iHKldlng about 5 o'clock Monday morning ut the home of Probation Officer fllocr, 129 Wltiditor street. Biu id rick Case Changes Aspect by Escape of Prisoner, No action on the petition for com mutation of the death aentencea of MU. ton and Jesse Rawlins to life Imprison ment Is probable at the bands of the prison commission this week. The non-resident members of the board, Chairman Turner agd Colonel Eason,,will not arrive In Atlanta until Monday evening, but It seems pretty well the definite Idea of the commla- ■lon to await on this matter until the execution of the father, J. G. Rawlins, and the negro, Alt Moore, has actually been accomplished. The object in this Is to allow either of the {wo to make any statement they choose from the gallows. Old man Rawlins sticks to the statement that his boys had nothing to do with tho affair. So far Alf Moore adheres to his original statements that the hoys aided him In killing the Carter chU- dren. The commission probably fesls that this Is a case of too much gravity to make any movement not well author, lied by the facts. It Is believed that If the boys are not guilty Alf Moore will say so when he steps on the gal lows. Tht Bundrick Cate. The commission was to have taken up the George \V. Bundrick cast again this, week, hut Saturday Bundrick de cided the Issue by sawing his way out of the Americus jail. Bundrick was respited for thirty days by Governor Terrell not long ago, after'the commis sion had declined to Interfere.. This was In order to give those fighting for Hundrlck's life lime to get more evt dence. The Bundrick case has been in court many years. After ha had assassinated a man nnmed Shrouder, Bundrick.went to South America, where he wad final ly located. He was brought back and sentenced to death. Tho case has been In the supreme court, which confirmod the lower court. Many believe Bundrick will make hit. way back to South America and that he will never be cap tured again. _ When the commission meets Tuesday they will again hear the Mims Dever- uux case, from Baldwin county. At the last meeting Deveraux's petition for commutation to life Imprisonment was declined by the commission, but the governor respited him for thirty days. MAJ. QEN.

Y„ Nov. 12.—The Repub licans do not believe that the county canvassing of the state vote, whk’h Is to begin on Tuesday, will materially change the result. In other words, they have no figures ut band with which to Justify the hope against hope that any of the candidates except Charles T. Hughes has been elected. To say that the Republicans are trou bled, If not deeply distressed, over,the outcome of the campaign, Is to put It very mildly. Concerning the future, that Is. the two years which must In tervene before the presidential con ventions are held, there Is more or less upprehi nelon. Republicans Surprised. Republicans were very greatly sur prised at the result on election day. Within two years Roosevelt's plurality of 176,000 and Higgins' plurality of 80.000 have been entirely obliterated, for the reason, ns all good Republicans conversant with the situation do nol hesitate to admit, that Mr. Hughes was elected by Democratic vole*. Just how h comes about that Presi dent Roosevelt's tremendous plurality, by which Higgins was pulled Into the governors chair, ha* been wiped out. has occasioned much comment. The Republicans who spoke about this mat ler said thut this feature of the situa tion should come In for deep concern, because, this Is Ihe president’s own state. Roossvslt Kept Out. Commenting on (hla matter. It be came known that It was with very great difficulty that President Roose volt was prevented from entering the slate during the campaign and mukliiK a number of speeches for the Republi can state ticket. This secret of the campaign has Been carefully guarded. It-In dearly shown In the result of election day lo those wliu took part in the campaign thHt Secretary Root's speech had little or no effect on- the outcome. The Republicans, therefore, began to wonder what would have liren the effect If President Roosevelt had arrled out hla original Intention to tour bis own home state and to urge tho Republican uhd Independent voters Ip stand by the candidates of tha state convention. . “L«t Him Elect It," / The antl-HIgglns men and the nntl- Roosevelt men In the party were fre quently heard to Say that, President Roosevelt named the ticket at Sara toga. and they would '.'now let him elect It."
