UlLT.'APKEX, Wis., October 28.—The
limited paenei. per train on the Chicago and
Milwsi.kee and St. Paid rnilrritd, which
left t. re last night at 10 o'clock, whs de
railed at Rio, when about three hour* out,
and thrown into an old atoim .parry Par
ticulars are hard to (let, lint it is admitted
at the general office of the oompaoy in this
oity that or e coach and three sleepers were
wrecked and five or air persona killed.
Physioiana left thia city on an early train
for the aoene of the disaster.
It ia now reported that ont of ten persona
who occupied the passenger coach seven
were killed, A gentleman from Chicago
and two children from Winona, Uinn., are
the only ones saved from the passenger
coach. Hone of the occupants of the sleep
ers were injured. Nothing has yet been
learned in regard to the number wounded.
So far the particulars are very meagre.
There is reason to believe the loss of life ia
greater than flrat reported. The wildest
stories are in oiroulatioo. It is said the
most distressing and harrowing scenes
took place after the wreck. The accident
is the first one for the new limited express,
which runs at a very high rate of speed.
11. Locmenbach, a job printer of this
ci'y, was on the wrecked train. He says
the scenes after the accident were har
rowing. The passenger coach,
which, he says, contained bo-
tween fifteen and twenty people, was tele
scoped at both ends, and the fire and smoke
that enveloped the wreck prevented
the imprisoned and injured passengers
from escaping. The passengers from the
sleepers gathered around the blaring cam.
but were powerless to render assistance.
Men anu Women could bo seen tearing their
hair in the agony of the moment, and
frightfn! screams issued from the death
trap. One heavy woman, in par
ticular, he says, tore np one
of the seats with almost
superhuman strength and endeavored to
break her way out of the flaming pyre, but
her strength failed and Bhe fell to the floor
and met a horrible death. Only three per
sons escaped from the passenger ear,
Mr. Loemenbach says—a man and two chil
dren. Tbs man was observed as he forced his
way through the ventilator on top of the
car with all the clothing on his body
from the waist downward burned off and
his flesh roasted and bleeding from ents in
flicted 1 y broken glass. Every one of the
wrecked cars was consumed, with the ex
ception of the lust sleeper, which was ent
away from the burning wreck. Ail the
bodjetl of the victims were burned in the
wreck,
A MOM PCTAILED ACCOUNT.
Milwaukee, October 28.—A special to
the Evening Wisconsin from Portage, Wis.,
says: "Soon after midnight last night the
west-bound limited express was ditched at
East Siding, a small station about thirteen
miles east of this city, on the main line of
the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Pant
railroad. There are two side tracks
at the place, and at the time the
train was dno there lost night both
wire occupied by freights, one by the
"wild" train and the other by train No. 11,
Conductor H. C. Hankoy, of this city,
which had jnat polled in lrora the West to
allow the limited to pass. No. 11 was very
long, and the conductor was at the head of
the train, relying upon the brakeman to at
tend to the switch. One report says Ihe rear
brakeman, whose business it was to close
the switch after the train, for some reason,
neglected altogether to do so. The other
and more probable theory is that he started
back to close the switch, bnt before be
oonld reach it the limited, which does not

log do Ali grade at fifty milts on ho—,
left the rails at the open switch.
The siding is in a cat where
the road sw'/o'n light cannot be seen from
the e?it nnlil the train is within a few rode,
oo the engineer of the limited could not
ace the switch turned wrong until too
late to atop. The engine left the tragk and
ran a short distance and brought up against
the tide of the cu,t toppling over. Tue
baggage car and the two regular coaches
followed, while the fonr slei per* kept the
roils. The engiue and cars that went off
were badly smashed, and soon took
fire from the stoves, and Eugfneer Little
and Fireman Egan crawled out from uudrr
the locomotive badly braised and scalded.
The baggageman had a U g broken. Ail the
passengers in the sleepers got ont unin
jured, except slight bruises, but in one of
the day coo lies thirteen were pinned in |
and literally burned to death. Many
others were Injured by severe shaking. The
names of the victims are not yet knoau
here.
The whole train, excepting one sleeper,
which they were able to uncouple and draw
away, was burned up.
Superii^eudeut A. W. Collins was on the
east bound passenger No. ‘2, which wss
waiting at the station a few miles this aide
of the wreck for the limited, and waa coon
on tbi oeeene.
The wrecking train, with surgeons, went
from thia oity and did all poesible to
alleviate the sufferings and to save life.
No. 2 waa obliged to back np to
thia city and ran over the N’urthwo.t-
cro to Milwaukee, via Horiiau, Beov. r
Dam and Fox Lake. The same ruute has
been need by the trains to-day, as the
wreck ia not yet cleared.
Conductor Uankey, of the freight, waa bo
demoralized by the accident, the responsi
bility of which reals on hie crew,
ai d thus also on him, that he took
to the woods in despair, leaviug his
train. He has always been a moot
careful and efficient man, mn b trusted by
the company. It was a must horrible an.I
sickening spectacle, the roasting people
making the uight hideous with their e l-,
while the bystanders were unable to rt-i.r.-r
assistance." It waa the worst wreck ever
known in the Northwest.

General Manager Miller, who went out to
the scene cf the railway accident this morn
ing. returned at 4 p. m. He and, in re-
her mother-in-law, Mrs. Rosina JohDs, of
the same place.
There were two women wearing the garb
of nuns, both of whom had passes. Ono
was mother snpericr of some convent.
Information received here leada to
the belief that she was mother superior
of a convent at New Castl6, in Fond da
Lno county. The order is known as the
Third Order of Franciscan Sisters.
A merchant at whose store the sister
bought goods, says there were three of
them, and that they had their packages
taken to the depot to go up on the night
train to 8t. Paul.
The other victims whose names Manager
Miller had, were:
Louis llrn-iker, of Ashland.
Emil Wolderadjuff, merchant of Colum-
bna, Wisconsin.
The only man who escaped from the
burning car was Dr. Smith, of Chicago.
If the merchant is correct about there
being three instead of two Franciscan sisters
who were going on that train, there should

this morning there wasa lively time among

The cause of it won the store order ques

It was stated that Gray Meek, editor of

alleged store order in the window of his
office. The Beaver club seeing it, broke
ranks anil demanded that it be

they first entered the office and requested
that it be romoved on the gruund that it
reflected on them as much as upon
Beaver, and nieetiug with a refusal they
tore it down, but another was immediately
posted np. This infuriated them, and a
volley of stones was sent crushing through
the window.
Meek linstiiy summoned th‘ sheriff and
a number of the club were arrested. A
great crowd followed them to the magis
