to arrive at a ab 447 a Sriive ah Gotalug wb) Mts; a car, three Pullmans and ay 'coaches, in the .order 'named, was demolis at: Gibaon, three miles east of Corning at 5.25 clack on Thursday morning by ress train' No. 11, due at Corn- at.5.10 a.m. . Forty-one persons were killed 'and between fifty sixty injured. Many of the victims were holiday excursionists bound te ; Niagara Falls, 'who had boarded the rain at points along the Lackawan- na from Hoboken to Buffalo. The wreck wag the worst in the history of the road." Its cause, ac- the express, was his failure to see the. gignals set against his train, The morning was a foggy one, 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, according to Engineer Bchroe- der, The signals,' 'whith hé de: clared it was too foggy to see, were just around the curve. Schroeder had taken train No. 11 at Elmira fifteen minutes before, It was a few minutes late. The stretch of track from Elmira to Corning is fitted for fast running, and he was sending his train along at the rate of 66 miles an hour. No. 9 was sup- poséd to be half an hour ahead of him, He never _had any warning until he made out the outline of the rear coach of No. 9 through the fog that was crawling up the mountain from the river far below. He saw the 'lights ahead and threw on the reverse without shutting off the steam. The jerk threw the train off the track, and the locomotive plunged al The 100-ton mo! plunge through the middi train, 'rinding pag path. 'It seemed as if it ee _ through every car, Then when it was finally blocked by a mountain 'and | of debris piled in front of 3b it re- mained on the roadbed in the midst of the desolation its: plunge' had created, while thousands of persons" tushed Hin every kind of vehicle to the 'scene Yo lift and pry the dead and injured from the tangled mass of wreckage. : of the dead were taken to on. a special train. The other dead]. were taken to undertaking rooms in Corning and 'the remainder of the injured were conveyed to the Corn- ing City Hospital," There a large corps of doctors and nurses worked rapidly and efficiently. All the physicians in the city were summon- ed, and many ministérs and priests were called to administer last sacra- ments and receive messages for re- latives and friends from the dying. Most of the bodies. were badly mangled, their condition testifying to the terrific' driving "power of Schroeder's engine as it crashed through the fated train. The cars themselves were one heaped-up mass of wreckage, telescoped into each other. The lagt two cars on No. 11 remained on the track and later were used as hospital coaches, The people of Corning have open- ed 'their homes to the injured who could not find accommodation at the hospital, or whose injuries were too slight to warrant their crowding cording 'to Engineer Schroeder of | Thirteen of the injured and i on & few rods further to splinter the | other persons from the 'institutions.
