nR EGHt A E KILLED IN RECK *ENGINE CHIEF, FAILS TO HEED BLOCK SIGNAL, CAUSING COLLISION. 80T TRAINS RUNNING LATE ibuied' Steel Train Crashe. Full 'peed Into Local Taking Water at Tank Station. Sulphur Sprinigs, Mo.-Failure of an engineer to hood a block signal eaused the rear-end collision on the Missouri-. Pacific here in which 38 person1l were killed and about 137 injured,' 25 so riously, according to John Cannon, as Blatant general manager of the road. Train No. 4, afast passenger ves tibule steel train, running at full speed crashed into No. 32, a local, composed of five wooden day coaches, a bag gage and express car, as the engine was taking on water with the coaches stretching back on a trestle over G.1ase creek. The impact hurled two of the local coaches down a 50-foot embankment edging the Mississippi, and telescoped four other coaches, crushing a number of passengers to death in their seats. Both trains were behind thie, the fast passenger running from Fort Worth, Texas, to St. Louis, carrying 180 pas sengers and the local 100 persons. According to Mr. Cannon, Matt ("Ginger") Glenn, of St. Louis, engi neer of the fast passenger, failed to heed a block signal warning him the track was not clear. Glenn, 57 years old, an engineer for 35 years without a black mark against his record, was killed, when he jumped from his cabin .just before the crash. Edward -Tins ley, also of St. Louis, fireman of No. 4, remained at his post and was seriously Injured. Engineer Glenn, shortly before ar riving at Sulphur Springs, received or ders on the "run" to pull over on a siding at Cliff Cave, ten miles north of here, to allow "Sunshine Special No. 1," en route from St. Louis 'to Texas points, to pass, and, Mr. Can non explained, the engineer failed to heed the signal because lie apparently was reading these orders when ht passed the block. Ghouls appeared on the scene very shortly after the crash and robbed the dead and dying., Only one was ar rested, and he said he was William Hall, of St. Louis. Several pieces of wearing apparel taken from the unfor tunate were found on his person. and a pn -,.. w- -,aist. The Bible, i the property of Aley of De Soto, red were spread over aun are ut several city blocks, and chicken crates, automobile cush Ions, baggage and the railroad tracks constitutedl their couches. The little village of 50 inhabitants was ulnable to enre for the injutred and they, along with the dead, were taken to St. Louis and Do Soto. Dr. W. WV. Hull was the only physician admilnis tering to the injured for several hours until relief train, arrived. "Had I had s0ome assistance we ipight have saved some of the (lying." Dr. H-ull told a representative of the Associated Press. "At one time 1 was trying to treat 25 persons simulta neously." China Facing a National Disgrace,.
