Y., July 4.?Westbound Lackawannu pasBenger train, No. 9, from New York, due to arrive at Cor ning at 4.47 A. M., composed of two engines, a baggage car, three Pullmans and two day coaches, In the order named, was demolished at Gibson, three miles east of Corning, at 5.25 o'clock this morning by express train No. 11, due at Corning at 6:10 A. M. Forty-one persons were killed and be tween fifty and sixty Injured. Many of the victims were holiday excursionists bound to Niagara Falls, who had boarded the trains at points along the line. Road's Worst Wreck. The wreck was the worst In the his tory of the road. Its cause, according to Engineer Schroder, of the express, was his failure to see signals set against bis train. The morning was foggy and he said he could not make them out. The wrecked train stood on the main track blocked by a crippled freight train. There was no flag out, accord ing to Engineer Schroder. The sig nals which Engineer Schroder declar ed it was too foggy to sec were just around a curve. The flying express plunged past them and crashed into the rear of No. 9 bringing death to over two-score of its passengers. .Making; Up. Lost Time Schroder had taken No. 11, nt El bura, 16 minutes before. It was'a few minutes late. The stretch of track from' Elmlra to Corning is fitted for fast running and he wds sending his train along at <)?"? miles^an hour. No. 9 was supposed to be half an hour ahead of him. He had no warning until he made out the rear, coach of No. 9 through the fog. ?lien he throw the reverse without shutting off steam. The jerk threw the train off the track and the locomotive plunged on to splinter tho two day coaches lilled With excursionists and tore through the last of the Pulmans. Schroder said the Impact threw him from the cab and landed him on his shoulder on the' roadbed practically unhurt. The 100-ton monster continued its plunge through the middle of the train grinding everything in Its path. When finally blocked by the debris, It re mained on the roadbed In the midst of the desolation It had caused, while hundreds of persons rushed In every kind of vehicle to lift and pry the dead and Injured from the tangled mass of wreckage. Taking advantage of the holiday ex cursion rates to Buffalo and Niagara Falls, many excursionists had boarded No. 9 at all points from Iloboken, in cluding Seranton, Blnghnmton and El mlra. Thc-c were also many passen gers for the West. By the time Elmlra was reached the train carried so many passengers that a second engine was attached. Ions before extra freight train No. 61, bound from Buffalo, had pulled out of Elmlra. "Dead" Engine Blocks Track. When the heavy grade at Gibson was reached, a drawhead was pulled out and No. 61 was crippled. Signals which she put out stopped No. 9. The first engine was uncoupled and set at work freight Into a siding to allow No. 9, to push the "dead" engine of the and No. 11, which was due In 2f> or 30 minutes, to pass. The work was slow, and during the wait many passengers from the day coaches got out. Meanwhile the signals had been thrown against No. 11. These failed to stop the express and the crash fol lowed. Rescuers were quickly on the scene. In what seemed an Incredibly short time, hundreds of automobiles had lined the highway which led to the wreck and the work of getting the In jured to the hospitals and the dead to the morgues was impeded by the block ing of the road. Scenes of Horror. At the Corning Hospital, which has accommodations for only forty pa tients, some of the Injured had to lay upon the floors until physicians could give them attention. Those who vis ited the scene of the wreck, before the hospital forces had time to finish th'e work of removal, witnessed many scenes of horror. One man picked up a small white sheet, which lay on the ground, only to draw back ashed face, as his act revealed the body of an unidentified baby only a few months old. The Rev. John T. Cassldy, a Catho lic priest, waa one of the early arriv als, tie ministered to the Injured and performed the last rites for those about to die. Tho people of Corning have opened their homes to the injured who could not find accommodations at the hospi tal, or whose injuries were too slight to warrant their crowding other per sona from the institution. This afternoon tho workmen at tho scene of the wreck picked up a human skull, which was entirely devoid of marks which would Indicate whether It came from man or woman. Although Engineer Schroder of the expressed declared there was no llag man to warn him of the presence of the stall train ahead. Lackawanna olllclals declare tonight that a Bag man had been sent back In the rear of No. 9 when she was held up. Of the dead only 20 had been iden tified tonight.

This damage can be recognized by the reddish discolora tion of the leaf of the plant Infested, beginning at the base of the leaf where the stem Is attached and spreading out over the entire leaf. Different from the damage done by what Is known as "cotton rust", the leaves affected by the red spider shrivel and drop off. The so-called red spider Is not a spid er at all, but a little red mite, which cu*i into the leaf and sucks the sap out of the plant. Infestation will be observed to begin usually near the edge of the field. This is due to the fact that the spiders pass through the winter on green vegeta tion, such ns we commonly find about the edges of fields and along ditch banks. When the cotton has become well started, they wander on to this and begin to spread. They lay num bers of reddish colored eggs on the under surface .of the leaf, and spin over these a flue web to hold them selves to the leaf while at work and to protect their young. Various agen cies, such as the plow going through the field, a stray dog, or the wind, dis tribute the pests for a distance often of many yards. From these facts It can be clearly seen that a good remedy for the red spider is a preventive one?to keep iown by fall turning of the land the green weeds common about edges of the field. The next precaution to ob serve Is not to let the pest get the start. Spray the Infested area with a one percent: lime sulphur solution. Make up the same kind of solution you used for a winter spray for the scale on your peach and apple trees and di lute this about twelve times. If you do not recall how to make this solu tion, full Information will be furnish ed upon request by the Division of Entomology, Clemson College, S. C. If you have the commercial lime-sulphur solution, dilute 09 parts of water to 1 of the solution. Apply this with a stray pump with Vermorel or Misty nozzle producing a fine mist and get this to cover the under side of the leaves thoroughly. Should a spray pump not be available, use an old broom or something of this type and attempt the same thing. If these steps are taken as soon as the form begins to spread, it is a comparatively easy matter to control the pest; but if de layed it is almost an Impractical mat ter for a farmer in his early season to treat a whole acre even with a good barrel spray pump. The red spider will be noted as of much more damage during dry weather than when we have plenty of rain; and often, though not always, a good, heavy shower Is bet ter than any remedial measure man can apply.
