Train Deral'ed While Returning from a Famous Shrine. American Engineer Saves the Second Section from Disaster. Woecial to The World.) MEXICO CITY, March 1--One hun- dred and four persons were killed out- right in the accident to the pilgrim ex- cursion train on the Interoceanic Rail- way yesterday, it is now learned, and eighty-six were wounded, many mor- tally. It Is the custom for pilgrims to visit Amecameca yearly at the carnival sea- son. A great fair is then held there, and people take this occasion to climb the neighboring hill called Sacra Monte, where there is a famous shrin which sits Hermit Father M De Valencia, one of the apostles to the Mexican Indians. That hill is directly in front of some great volcanoes, and ts a most pictur- sque spot. It is from Amecameca that the mountain climbers start for the ascent of the volcanoes. The annual fair this year was numer- ously attended, thousands of people go- ing from Mexico City and the neighbor- ing towns. Many people returned to this city Wednesday, but enough to densely pack twelve cars remained untll Thurs- day, when the catastrophe occurred. ‘The ill-starred train was made up in two sections, The first section had an American ngineer named Nugent. There is @ report among the passen- were that he was not sober when he left the station. This first sction started at 11 A. M., and reached Temamatla about 1 P. M. At this point the road descends sharply to an iron bridge, at the end of which a curve begins. It Is sald that the en- gineer did not put on the steam brakes and that the train ran down the incline and over the bridge at frightful speed. On striking the curve the train was derailed. The locomotive was half im- bedded in the ground, the tender was demolished, and three cars, filled to suf- focation with human beings, were liter- ally smashed to atoms. Three other cars behind were overturned, but their occupants mostly escaped with slight wounds, The mutilarion of the dead was ex- tracra. sry. Heads were separated from trunks, while Iimbs were hurled in every direction. In some cases per- sons living, though wounded, were found under . pile of corpses three feet deep. | Experienced railway men who Wweat to the scene say it was the most horrible accident they ever knew of. Many children are among the killed or udly wounded, and a large number of women. The wounded were mostly brought, to this city. The dead are continually ing carried through the streets to their homes. The second section of the train hi @ narrow escape. Filled with passe rs, it was descending rapidly to tl ene of the di Fortunately, few passengers of the wrecked tr back and flagged it, The engineer had to little time fo, stop his train that in applying the brakes violently his en- tite was turned over, The gratitude of the pessengers at their narrow escape was lavishly ex- pressed. Nothing but the presence of mind and the bravery of the engineer, also an American, who risked his life In the desperate effort to save his train, Prevented another. catastrophe, Passengers say that the wrecked oars of the first section were completely tel- escoped The Governor of the Federal District, the police authorities and a large num: ber of surgeons hastened to the scene in ran | 2f the accident when they learned of it. By orer of President Diaz the wounded broug.r here were conveyed to the Military Hospital in this city, ‘The passengers were mainly from the poorer classes. The amount of misery which the accident thrusts upon numer- ous families it 1s impossible to esti- mate. The railways of this country have been remarkably exempt from great ac- eldents. Public opinion generally blames tl American engineer, but railway men ai cribe the accident to the breaking of the King bolt under the locomotive tank. ‘The Mexican Government has. com Miarch April May Are the Best Months in Which to urify Your Blood is arsaparilla ;& mere skeleton.
