2. SOUSA ESCAPES N TRAN CRASH Seven of His Bandsmen Are Injured When Special Leaves Track. By the Associated Press. 0o WALSENBURG, Colo., September 10. —Although he was shaken up in a train wreck at Capps, 13 miles southwest of here, yesterday, John Phillip Sousa, noted band master, contined his journey by motor car to Trinidad, Colo., and directed his band in a concert there last night. Seven members of the band were in- jured slightly when Sousa’s special train left the tracks. The train -was| composed of the engine, baggage car | and two chair cars. None turned over. Railroad officials said the wreck was| caused by a spreading rail. Sousa marveled that many were not killed in the accident. “There was a tremendous thud,” Sousa said, “as the car I was riding in started rocking like a row boat. When 1 saw the baggage car tip, I thought we ‘were going over and I caught hold of the seat. It was a miracle many were not killed.” ‘The injured: William J. Robinson, 46, Buffalo, bruises, cuts on chest and back; William Herb, Allentown, Pa., abrasions on right arm and leg; ‘Noble Howard, 45, Indianapolis, cuts and bruises; F. F. Muller, 25, Bay City, Mich., abrasions and bruises; S. Meagher, 27, Rochester, N. Y., chest| bruises; E. D. Johnson, 44, Pittsburgh, severe bruises; Jedse Wellingham, 45, New York, abrasions on legs.

The council of ministers today or- dered that serious measures be taken against the bandits, but execution of the orders was held up for fear that the bandits might murder their cap- tives.
