back and forth , whllo a woman's dying
Bhrlcks could bo heard from the Interior of
the wreck.
The first words of Mr. Dollnon when
lifted from the pinning beams , were of his
son , and continuously thereafter did he de
mand know-edge of "Hughey. " Ho was soon
found lifeless , whllo the father may live.
I. I. Curtis , the marshal of the day , be
came the head of the 1'lonccrs' forces nnd
worked valiantly to save the Imprisoned and
ameliorate the sufferings of the wounded.
Ho was splendidly aided by the Logan cit
izens , who wore untiring In their efforts.
Every private homo In Logan was thrown
open to HIP visitors for the night , anil many
wounded wcio taken direct to private res
idences.
Olio child was calling plteoualy for Its
parents , whllo they were mangled forms on
the hillside.
Shortly after midnight a long train of six
teen conches came to the wreck , and the
passengers of the equally long train on the
other side of the trestle moved In to It. A
Pullman car was made Into n hospital , where
all of the wounded able to more worts trans
ferred from the uptown dispensaries.
Great bonfires were built nt Intervals along
the track , which , with the ninny torches of
the trainmen , made the sceue a brilliant
one , although so sad to all.

Last evening when the nrst rumors of the
accident to the excursion train were circu
lated In thn city there were a large num
ber of people on the streets , brought out for
the usual Saturday night's trading. The
news spread quickly , but for several hours
It was Impossible to obtain any accurate In
formation of the accident. It was certain
that It had been a serious one , however , for
the railroad officials hurriedly made up a
special train and sent It out. On board this
train were a corps of physicians nnd all the
necessary InHlruments and paraphernalia for
caring for Injured people. The Northwestern
officials absolutely refused to rlvo out any
Information , and the thousands who had
friends nnd relatives on the train wore held
In suspense as to their fate. When news
paper men applied for permission to accom
pany the train to the wreck they were re
fused , being told that "No d d newspaper
men wore wauled. "
Later In the night when lists of the killed
and Injured had been sent out to the As
sociated press the officials of that organiza
tion In Chicago asked that the list be
verified , ns the railroad officials nt that
place denied that anyone had been killed
Nothing that could be done to cover up the
true facts was left undone , and operators at
the Eceno of the wreck were forbidden to
receive press messages for transmission
nnd the news had to be sent by the tele
phone line.
KAGKIl SKEKERS FOR NEWS.
As soon ns the news spread the tele
phones In the newspaper offices were kept
constantly ringing by the friends of people
on the train , who wore vainly trying to fim
out something concerning their fate. Foi
some time oven this source of Information
failed them , as the newspapers were unable
to obtain , anything , though they hud rep
rcEcntatlvcs on the Illfated train. Man ;
of the people started for the Union depo
In the hope that the train bearing the savec
nnd those slightly Injured would pull In
The railroad officials at that place were
cither unable or unwilling to give any In
formation as to when It would arrive
Every minute served to swell the crowd on
the depot platform and in the waiting room
and at midnight there was scarcely a fee
of unoccupied room on the platform.
Women were HtunJlng around weeping a
the thought of loved ones who were on the
train , nnd uncertain whether they were
dead or alive. Suvcral times during th
evening women fainted , and the police were
compelled to clear a way through ( ho crowi
to get them out Into the- fresh air. Whei
later In the evening bulletins containing
partial list of * the killtul were rc.u
to the crowd , there was such
crush to get within he.xriug distance
that several women fainted. Everybody
who were suppoucd to have any hifonuu

Later , whrn It was announced that the trail
bearing those who had escaped and thos
not too sorlouUy Injured to bo moved wouli
probably arrive about 2 or 2:30 : the crowi
settled down fo wait for Its coining with th
best grace possible ,
Vvom the host accounts obtainable as to
how the accident happened , It appears that
the crew of the special carrying the ex
cursionists had ordeni to wait at Logan for
the cnstbound passenger ami a freight train
to pass. They waited for the passenger , but
for some reason pulled out before the ar
rival of the freight. They had only pro
ceeded u short distance when they met the
freight , both' going at full speed. Tin-
trains were both badly wrecked and pas
sengers were piled In among the broken
parts of the curs. At the present writing
there have been twenty-seven dead Identified
and It Is supposed there lire at least throe
more under the debris of the wrecked trains.
About forty are seriously iujuicd.
When the word was first received the
Western Uulou office in this city ar
ranged tu ueiid operators to the Bcene to
facilitate the handling of the news. Chief
Operator Ijurnimrt mid two men went to
Council Hlufla to go out i < n the Northwest
ern train , but the oHle-lals positively refused
to allow them tu go on the train. No rea
son was assigned. The operators went
across country In wagons , hoping to reach
the scene by 3 o'clock a. in.
The llee reporters had to go In wagons
also , the railroad absolutely refusing to
carry them.
AT U. P. IIKAUQUARTUltS.
The Union Pacific headquarters were be
sieged with anxious Inquirers early In the
evening , when tbo Efid news became known
throughout the city. Many of the officials
In the headquarters had members of their
families on the train , ami nearly all the
picnicker * were known by some attaches
' of the road.
Secretary of tlrs l&rcutlve Department
Thomas M. Orr took charge of the head-
quarton , and , In direct contrast to the con
duct of the Northwestern officials , exerted
everr possible rffurt to secure accurate Information -
formation from lb ecauo of the dUautcr
aud filve It out to the wcuy Inquirer * . The
Union Pacific w about the flret to secure
* list of tlis do.ifl , and queries us to whether
ertaln namca were or were not on that list
were promptly answered ,
Mr. Orr also Interested himself In seeing
hat every provision for the proper reccp-
Ion of the dead , wounded and other pic-
Ickers was mado. Street cars were ar
ranged for and all the ambulances and un-
crtakers' wagons In the city were sc-
ured.
Although the Union Pacific officials
leartlly opposed the Idea of the pioneers In
aklni ; ihelr picnic to Logan there Is no
Imposition to criticise the association for
ts action. The Union Pacltlc preferred that
he picnic remain In Nebraska , ns has al-
wnjs been the case , because It felt that It
ould take better care of the pioneers than
ny outside road.
General Manager Dickinson heard the
CW3 at Iluntlngton , Ore. Ho telegraphed
or the fullest Information attainable and
hroilghout the night was kept advised of
he situation. Ho Is on his way home , nnd
vlll probably conic directly here , as ho baa

UIllNGINO THEM HOMK.
Thorc was considerable delay In getting
he excursionists slatted homeward. At
Irst It was announced that a. start would
) o made from the sccno of the wreck at
uldnlght. Hut delays occurred nnd the
start was postponed , and It was 2:10 : a. m.
vhen the ( list section left Missouri Valley.
The first train was made up of passenger
coaches nnd carried the passengers that were
all well. That train arrived at the Council
Hinds transfer at 3 o'clock , nnd catno Into
ho Omaha union depot about foity-flve min
utes later.
Hack of this section about thirty min
utes ran the second section. This carried
ho dead nnd wounded. In the baggage
cars lay the bodies of the dead , and In the
coaches that followed were all the Injuicd
that could bo moved ; they were attended
> y n largo corps of physicians. Many of
the wounded wrro unable to be moved nnd
were loft nt the hotel In Logan , attended

When the fated train departed from the
inlon depot yesterday joy was depicted upon
the face of each one of the 1,200 excursion
ists , for they foresaw a day of pleasure and
a short round of enjoyment. It was to be
a holiday , during which the tales of the
past were to bo recounted by the pioneers.
Hands played and many n handkerchief
was waved as the long train passed around
the bend In the road. Children rollicked
up and down the aisles of the car and par
ents smiled as they watched the antics of
their little ones , little thinking that In a few
short hours many of them would bo cold
In death.
This morning there Is sorrow In hundreds
of Omaha homes where death has removed
relatives or friends who departed yesterday
In the enjoyment of perfect health.
The train that bore the uninjured returned
to the city at ! 1:30 : o'clock this morning , and
instead of the music of bands floating out
upon the air , there was weeping ; Instead
of faces that were wreathed In smiles , there
went sad facs and heavy harts. The
crowd that pressed up to the cars as they
pulled up to the platform , numbered fully
5.000 , notwithstanding the early hour. There
were men whoso wives and children who had
gone upon the excursion ; there were parentb
whose little ones had gone for the day's
outing , and young men and women , whose
lovers and sweethearts had gone upon the
wrecked train.
There was an air of anxiety prevailed
among those who had waited during the
long night for some word from the scene
of th owrcck , but had waited in vain. And
as the excursionists alighted , those who
were In waiting anxiously asked for news.
In some Instances a mother was told thai
her son or daughter was dead ; a father was
Informed that a son or a darling boy , the
Joy of the household had gone , never to re
turn , Again , a wife or a husband was
sadly Informed of the fact that the partnci
of his or her Joys was lying
cold nnd still In the little.
In the Immense crowd that had gathcrei
upon the platform of the depot it was Im
possible to nt once find those for whom tht
watchers nnd waiters were seeking , but
the platforms of the cars were careful ! }
scanned nnd as the passengers alighted , the }
were clasped by friends and faces smotherei
with tears and kisses. When Informed of
the fate of the loved ones , strong met
wept and women swooned and were tenderl }
carried Into the waiting rooms , there to
bo cared for by people , many of whom hai
never sen them before. The walls of children
dron were heartrending when calmly In
foimod that their parents were dead , or
that n brother or sister had gene to tha
land from whence no traveler returns
There was no effort to clear the platforn
and the crowds were allowed to congregate
listening to some individual tell the star }
of the wreck and the manner In which
soma friend met Ills or her death.
At daylight the platform and the np
proachcs wore a surging mass of humanity
There were many who still citing _ to the
hope that their friends had missed the firs
train in- from the wreck and would bo Ii
later In the day. It was hoping ngalna

Mdwarfi Fltzpatrlck of The Dee mailing

train. Ho was happy , because neither ho
nor any of his family had been Injured. Ho
said : "It was the worst scene I ever wit

car back of the baggage car. Those who

John Schenlcr of Kleventh and Pacific
streetn , also n member of the Seventh Ward
band , was badly Injured. His old father and
his sister were nt the station waiting for
him , grieving because they could not know
the extent of his Injuries.
A little group that attracted the attention
even of those who had troubles of their own
was that of an elderly German" couple sur-
lounde-d by a number of their grown up
hltdrcn. The old mother and one of her
nughtcrs had been on the picnic aud the
est of the family had been In suspense In
his city all through the weary night walt-
ng for some tidings fro mtlio mother nnd
isler. When tell latter nllghted they were
laspcd and hugged and kissed like chll-

ather could not restrain his tears , so great
vas his joy. And between sobs they told of
ho awful scenes that folowcd the wreck ,
ml they cried again when they related their
ncffcctual attempts to send out any tele-
jraphs to their friends and relatives.
Hut there were other groups where tears
if genuine harrow nnd grief , Instead of tears
) f Joy , were shed. There were fathers look-
ng for their wives and children ; there were
vlvca looking for their husbands , aud there
voro sisters looking for brolhera nnd brolh-
rs looking for sisters that were never to
return alive. As the anxious ones eagerly
scanned the faces of the excursionists and
ailed to find their loved ones , their anguish
: new no bounds , They looked around In
vain for some support nnd some word of
comfort. Then they turned away from the
ostliug crowd and endeavored to hldo tlfflr
sorrow , and with a mighty effort determined
o lock up their grief within their own
losoms.

UEIIL1N , July 11. The members of the
cabinet have nearly all gene off on their
summer vacations. The chancellor. Prince
lohenlohe , spends his tlmo at his e. tate
of Aussce , near Ischcl , upper Austria ,
where , If his health continues good , 1m will
do some mountain climbing and chamois
liuntlng.
The birthday of Emperor Francis Joseph
of Austria will be celebrated by thu Uerlln
court , with the usual eclat.
Uefore leaving Hcrlln , Emperor William
expressed to Prince Hoheiilohe hla high re-
iard and great satisfaction at what had
been accomplished in the Kclchstag Mid In
foreign politics through him. The rela
tions between the cmeporor and prince
Hohcnlohe are nt present most cordial. The
prince Is now occupied with tha Cretan
question , and Is devoting his oest effortr
to prevent Greece from creating interna
tional dlllleultles. The chancellor's health
Is at present good , but It is known he has
made his continuance In office after next
fall dependent upon his majesty's consent
to military court reform , and sc , has had
the Uronsart bill drafted and made ready
for introduction In the Kolchstag , Hut the
bill still lies In the empuror'j private mil
itary cablnoC where General von H.inskc.
on whose Judgment the emperor greatly re
lies , wishes it to remain.
The Hundesrath this year reconvenes
earlier than usual , probably on September
10. There Is no doubt th.ic the oleomar
garine bill , as passed by the Reichstag , and
which would make the imports of all olecv
margarlne Impossible , will be rejected by
that body. Both Dr. Voa nojttlehcr , the
secretary of state . for the interior , and
Uarou Von Hammorsteln , the minister of
agriculture , urge It's rejection.
MORE AFRICAN RAILROADS.
One of the most important bills before the
Reichstag this fall will bi a measure to
authorize the building of railroads in the
Gorman colonies in Africa. It provides for
the building of several small railroatU In
German southwest Africa and they will be
built entirely by Uritlsh capitalists. The
bill also provides for the coratrnutloii of d
big road In German East Africa , from
Darncs-Salaam and Ugoyomo , via Tabora , to
Victoria and Tanganyika lakes , altogether
about l.SUO kilometers. A syndicate baa
been formed by the DeuUcliQ bank , the
German East Africa company and the
Colonial department to raise the S,000,000
marks required. The empire guarantees
the Interest.
Another bill provides for ar. incrcr.se in
the strength of the navy. They believe
that a much larger number of fast cruisers
must be built , and the usual fall maneuvers
next month will bo mudu to demonstrate-
the necessity thereof and will also show
whether 11 Is desirable to have more Iron
clads.

Another Impressive and convincing tribute
to the value of the nntl-toxln scrum treat
ment for diphtheria comes to hand. It is
contained In th" report of the Pcdlatrle
society. This document , says the New
York Tribune , possesses features nnd
qualities which make It well-nigh unique ,
nnd which Invest It , both to the professional
nnd to the- lay mind , with unusual Impor
tance. The testimony It contains was not
furnished by any limited coterie of phy
sicians In any particular region or countrv ,
but by more than 00 , scattered throughout
the United States nnd Canada. It was
not drawn from hospitals , which deal with
few cases of diphtheria and those largely'
complicated with other disorders , but from
private practice , where the overwhelming
bulk of cases nro to be found. The re
turns , moreover , have been subjected to
careful revision. Repoits of 3.C28 cases
were gathered by the society. Of these
244 cases were rejected because evidence
was not conclusive that the trouble was
really diphtheria. These rejected eases
were , however , all recoveries. All the
doubtful cases which terminated fatnlly
were retained In the statistics. The re
port also Includes 1)42 health board cases
In New York and 1.4GS In Chicago.
In nil. the report covers 5.791 cases of un
doubted and often , especially in the health
hoard cases , particularly severe diphtheria.
Among these there were 713 deaths , giving
n death rate of 12.3 per cent. If we exclude ,
as wo properly may , 218 cases In which
treatment had been delayed so long that the
patients were already evidently moribund ,
the ratio Is diminished to 8.S per cent. And
If wo take Into reckoning all those cases In
which the serum was applied during the
Hrst three days nnd that is when it should
bu applied to make sure of Its benefits we
have -1,120 cases with 303 deaths , a death
rate of 7.3 per cent. A still better showing
Is , of course , made in the cases treated on
the first day , amply justifying Dr. Uehrlng's
prophecy that the- death rate therein would
bo reduced to not more than . " > per cent.
The three days' limit is probably , however ,
the most reasonable and practical one , and
the figures cited , warrant the saying that
the anti-toxin serum , where it has had a fair
chance , linn reduced the diphtheria death
rate to between 7'and S per cent. When
It is considered that hitherto diphtheria
has been one pf the moat deadly of all dis
eases. It may'well be doubted If a greater
therapeutic triumph has been scored in this
generation.
Among the practical lessons to bo derived
from this reptirt afo several which appeal
both to the layman and to the professional
practitioner. ' . One Is , of course , the de
sirability of the widest possible use of the
remedy , for the disease prevails everywhere
and the remedy Is everywhere effective.
Another Is the'Imperative need of an ample
supply of the-scrum whleh shall bo abso
lutely pure a nd of the highest standard
strength. A third in the need of having the
remedy applied nt the earliest possible mo
ment. It may'be effective If applied on the
fifth or the seventh ortbo tenth day. It is
never too -latai. fornlt to be worth trying
Hut the probabllltyj-of benefit /lecxeas s jn
appalling ratio as .tlum olnpsex after thn
third day. The death rate In cases treated
in the first throe days Is 7.3'per cent ; in
those treated after the third day It Is 27 per
cent. These facts should be taken seriously
to heart and acted upon promptly and prac
tically. The serum treatment has passed
beyond the experimental stage. Its vlrtin
is established. It now remains to make
that virtue available for all who are or who
may be menaced by the disease.

ROCHESTER , N. Y. , July 11. The Whit
ney-Hill party arrived In Buffalo about S
o'clock this morning and proceeded on their
Journey eastward. They were quite as non
committal as last night on the proposition
as to whether they "would bolt the ticket
and platform of the Chicago convention. It
Is believed that their allem-o on this matter
Is caused by a desire to first know whethei
the populists will endorse the platlorm unt
ticket. If they do there Is some likellhooc
of a gold convention which will proclaim
Itself the democratic national convention
assorting that the Chicago convention was a
populist convention controlled by populist :
and declaring for their tenets. On the other
hand , If the popullst.s do not Join the demo
crats in endorsing their ticket then Senate ]
Hill arid Mr. Whitney believe It will bo
wise , through a manifesto , to say to the
people Just what the eastern gold leaders
believe will be the outcome of the electloi
of the democratic ticket. The tone of the
manifesto will bo gauged by the SPiitlmeni
of the various states as will be expressed
through the medium of the leaders In each
Lieutenant Governor Sheehan. who left
the tr.iln at Buffalo , said : "I bolluve tha

It would bo uselcsa to maintain headquartero
In New York for a silver campaign , and the

ing their realization the silver men prac

help from the eastern states In the nlectlor
of a ticket. Senator Jones of Arkansas wll

The day school ijeljcra of Pine Rldgo and
Rosebud rcservqtlojyj-have concluded the In
stitute by organiiUiS a joint association to
meet annually. mJ. U. Trlpp of the Illack
Plpo school , RoJobtfd , was elected president.
This 1s the flrtEMlUtltuto which has been
organized by the jenchers themselves nnd
promises to become a large factor In Indian
education. The Pine Rldgo teachers enter
tained the Rosebud delegation most royally.
The ruin of last night made It uncomfort
able for some in tents , but did not dampen
the ardor of the teachers. The program was
full of good napers on the practical work
of the day schools. The regular Indian
teachers' institutes have been In the inter
ests of the boarding school so largely that
they have not helped the day teachers. Major
Clapp is very enthusiastic over the day
school work and will push the EchooU on
Pine Hldgo to their very best work by proper
equipment. _ _ _ _ _ _

ILLINOIS DID IT.
The first change came when the Georgia
delegation changed Its vote from McLean to
Sewall. The chairman of the Indiana delega
tion announced that since hearing the tele
gram read Indiana woud transfer her thirty
votes to Sewall. Iowa and Louisiana also
swung Into line for Sewall. When North
Carolina wis called thu chairman nt thu
ill legation announced that North Carolina
was not playing to the east In this light
and again voted for Clarke' . When Ohio
was called , De-legate Sloane mounted a
chair and said : "Ohio casts her votes
for McLean , notwithstanding the tele
gram. " A Buckeye delegate- arose to
protest , but was hauled back into his
chair by the angry men about him. When
the roll call wns concluded tlirro was a
hurried consultation. Sowall had 420 votes ,
within twanty-llvc ! votes of enough to nomi
nate. The Illinois delegation wavered ,
suddenly Harry Donovan mounted a chair
and shouted : "Illinois , which will cast
Its vote for the nominees of the convention ,
now desires to aid In the making of a ticket ,
bhe casts her forty-eight votes for Arthur
Sowall of Maine. "
"Hurrah for Sewull , " shouted thousands
of voices. Kentucky , Ohio , Maryland and
other states , all quickly fell In line. A
Michigan delegate moved to make the
nomination unanimous. Delegates grasped
the state colors and marched about in In
dian file. They at last lined up In front
of the stage , while several routine announce
ments were made , and then , as the band
struck up the stirring strains of "Dixie , "
thu procession reformed nnd for several
minutes paraded about thu delegates' en
closure with the purple staffs of Nebraska
and Maine in the van.
The crowds shouted and there was a wild
scene of enthusiasm. At last nil the state
colors were brought to the center of the pit
where the Nebraska delegation was located.
They clustered there , lobbying about lllto
corks on a sea of swaying men until the
chairman began to rap for order.
The result of the lifth ballot wan as fol
lows : Sewall , BBS ; McLean , : t2 ; Ilarrity. 11 ;
Williams , 0 ; Clarke. 22 : Paulson , 1 ; Daniel ,
38 ; absent and not voting. 251.
By repeatc-d appeals the chairman per
suaded the delegates to go back to their
seats for the transaction of the routine
business remaining. Re-solutions wuie
adopted empowering the national committee
to fix the time and place for holding the
next national convention and to choose lor
its chairman and members of the ) executive
committee persons not members of the com
mittee. Resolutions were adopted thanking
thu presiding officers , Daniel , White and
Richardson , and thanking the city nnd people
ple of Chicago for their hospitality , and
declaring Chicago "tho greatest convention
city In the world , " the last proposed by
Senator Bhinchard of Louisiana.
C. K. Laeld of Illinois made an unBiiccesa-
ful attempt to secure consideration of a
motion to abrogate the two-third rulo. and
at ten minutes after 3 , Chairman White
declared the convention adjourned.
GUTTING OUT OF CHICAGO.
The exodus from the elty has already
he-gun , and the normal quiet of hotel corri
dors and other political centers is gradually
being icstorcd. The regular trains ) laat
night and today were crowded to their ut
most capacity , and most of thu special
trains which had brought marching clubs
with their bands and shunters have gone.
Early this morning the work of taking down
the lingo portraits , lithographs and banners
bearing the portraits of Illnnd , Boles , Mat
thews and others who figured In the race-
began , and with these went the flags and
bunting which has added so much color to
thu Bceno. There was a noticeable falling
off In the throngs moving toward the con
vention hall early In the day , for the gre-at
dramatic event had passed.
Bryan's quarters nt the Clifton house
rival the ) convention hall r.s nenter of
attraction for great throngs. They besle-go
thu entrances and corridors and keep up a
continuous demonstration. The nomlnuo is
proving himself truly democratic. Ho shows
himself frequently , has his doors open not
only to thu leaders , but to the crowd In
general , and talks without any of the re
straint which political candidacies usually
Impose. There Is the possibility that hlu
presence here may lead to immediate action
by the committee ) on notification , so that
the formality of proceeding in a body
to his homo and there exchanging the notifi
cation of nomination and the candidate' * ; ac
ceptance may bo avoided. Ills speeches lethe
the people from the balcony of his hotel last
night ore taken to Indicate the general
lines of his campaign.
The talk of an Independent ticket Is still
In embryo form and lacks the powerful
Influence which Now York , Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania and other strongholds can
give It. The only definite. step in that direc
tion lias been taken at n nu-etlug attended
by a number of Illinois men , inclining
Comptroller Kckels , ex-Congrcs'sman Hen T.
Palde , Franklin MaoVcagh audohn P.
Hopkins , at which resolutions were prepared -
pared favoring the nomination of indejxmd-
ent candidates on a gold platform. It w.in
assented to by those members of the Tnxaw
gold delegates who failed to secure seats
In the convention and by scattered repre
sentation from other states. Until New
York and the other largo centers have
spoken , however , the Independent movement
will not lake definite form.

CHICAGO , July 11. The Clifton house ,
whereMr. . Bryan stops , as compared with
last night was very quiet today. The ab
sence of the politicians at the convention
hall and the departure of many of them
from the city had much to do with affording
this Immunity from disturbance , which was
a relief to every one about the houto , If not

however , given little respite from morning
until late nt night , for there was u constant
stream of visitors who would not accept no

tions upon the nomination.

Mr , Bryan plainly showed the e'ffeet today
of the strain which the events of the past

vivacious enough In ronvematlon , and ho dis
