The telegraph wires were destroyed by the wreck and other wires were crippled by the, t)ld weather and if was nearly an hour before relief could.be caljed. Two wrecking trains were sum moned. , une came trom Ottumwa. but it was not sufficiently powerful to lift the huge steel cars. Uninjured , passengers, the Creston fire depart- inent, summoned from six miles away, and volunteers from Cromwell aided the wrecking crew, which by the use of block and tackle in con junction with the wrecker succeeded , in liberating a few of those pinioned beneath the wreckage. Women, shiv ering in the cold, aided in the work of fescue. : Cripplea Liberated.' ',' When a wrecker arrived from Bur-' lington, la., the injured, whose cries ' were audible for seycral blocks, were goon liberated. One of the steel cars stood on end in the ditch. Another had over turned several times in its descent of the embankment and rested in a bed of crushed ice in the ditch. The-majority of the injured were cut by glass. . A number of them were thrown through - the windows and . clear of the falling ears. A few of the passengers continued their journey on a later train. Eleven of the seriously hurt are now in Cres ton suffering; from internal , injuries " and it was.; not yet known if they would live.. . . , ' v Six physicians treated all of the In jured, rendering first-aid to many at the wreck and bandaging others . in. the hospitals, and the. hotel , lobbies. J. F. Slinghpff conductor .. of , the train, was one of the bldes.t employes, on the Burlington,; in point', of serv . - ict, having been with the' road-close to forty yeast. His home is in Lin coln. While his injuries, which con sist of cuts and bruises on his back, shoulders and neck, will Jay him up tome time, they are r.ot expected to , prove fatal. v George H. Cutler, one of the in jured and who sustained some severe bruises about the head and shoulders, resides in Tacoma, Wash.' He is a colonization agent connected with the Vmon Pacific system; working di rectly with the Oregon Railway and Navigation company. He had been ill iiuoiie m wupit if, ua,,-. ..,. with Union Pacific officials and was enroute to Chicago.

Wayfarers Prove They ' Bought Their Checks Robert Hilderbrant and Larry Mor gan, 1922 Harney street, arrested Jan uary 28 and booked for investigation, have been discharged. Hilderbrant and Morgan had in their possession more than $100 in travelers' cheques, which police officers believe were stolen because of the manner in which they were filled out. Information from Denver, however, corroborated Hildcrbrant's statements that he pur chased the cheques there. Central Labor Union Endorses Boxing Bill '. Cent Melady'a bill, now ,pending in the legislature, foi clean 'sport in Nebraska was unanimously endorsed by the Central Labor union last evening. Application of three delegates elected by a new moving picture oper ators' union to the Central Labor union was temporarily refused until the status of the new union can be determined. The new union is' called an electricians' union, but it was stated the members are to be operators of moving picture machines only. ' First steps were taken lobking to ward free admission to the various unions for members of bartenders' and brewery workers' unions who will be thrown out of work May 1. Many of these, it was stated, have other trades to which they will want to return and the unions ot which they will want to join. Initiation fees in most cases are $50. Wilson's Action Balks Ed Smith, - Embargo Buster Somewhere in the neighborhood of Boston, or perhaps actually within the-city limits of Boston, was Ed P. Smith of Omaha on a mission that has probably been rendered-entirely fruitless by the severance of diplo matic relations with Germany. ' Mr. Smith left Omaha for Boston Thursday evening, representing the Omaha Grain exchange and hoping to influence eastern steamboat lines to accept cargoes of grain from Oma ha for shipment abroad. Smith had planned to do a little embargo-busting Of his own. ( It is likely' that about the time he stepped off the train at the Boston passenger station a Boston newsboy pushed an extra in his facje bearing the words, "Diplomatic relation's with Germany severed." Of course, whethe the newsboy did this or not, no one in Omaha yet knows, but Grain exchange men be lieve Smith must have arrived in Bos ton just about in time to buy the first extras that came out on the new crisis in the international situation, which will necessarily make thi em bargo on exports still more rigid for a time at least. . - . - "So I suppose Ed will turn around and take the next train back," said a grain man. "Oh, Ed may get his lunch first, maybe, and probably walk up Bunker Hill and back before train time, but I bet he will be riding a Pullman for the Nebraska metropolis again by night." , .'

'"" HOW MUSIC WON A WIFE ' Casting frightened glances back ward at her father and at the .same time dinging tightly to the arm of her crippled husband, Mildred Busche, 15 years old, whose disappearance from her home at 957 North Twenty fifth street, was reported to the police Thursday, marched into the police building. Her dad, Frank Busche, who has Tiuntcd high and low, east and west, for his runaway daughter scowled as he walked behind her and Floyd Wathen, her spouse, and de livered them both into hands of the police, i "I am going to prosecute him to the limit of the law," said Mr. Busche vehemently, pointing to Wathen. "He married my little girl in Seward two days ago and she is only 15 years of age." Wathen, a cripple, is a talented pianist and a good singer. Busche says that he sirig and -played his way into his girl's heart and thus won her consent to an elopement. Busche was his own detective in trailing the young couple. He found that Wathen had relatives in Chicago and Seward. He wired Chicago po-. lice to witch for him there and he himself went to Seward. There he found them, but, not until the musician and his girl had been mademan and wife. Busche ordered them to pack their 4uds and move back to Omaha They obeyed with alacrity and Busche chaperoned the party all the way.
