According to the story of Fireman J. H. Smith of the westbound train, Engineer Walter Coslett opened the emergency brake and the train was checked for an instant, but the slippery rails and the momentum of the heavy train carried it on. Immediately after the collision a sheet of fire ran through the cars on both sides of the engines, and in a twinkling the crackling sound of breaking timbers started the men to action. In the forward coach of the westbound train every seat waa occupied by passengers, most of whom were homesqekers on their way to the northwest. A number of foreigners were among them and in their terror they gave up life without making any attempt to reach safety outside the burning car. Paralyzed with fear and with prayers upon their lips, they sank to the floor of the car and were roasted alive. The cooler ones in the car, seeing their danger, rushed for the windows and doors, and with the aid of the passengers in the rear of the train and those members of the train crew who were unhurt, managed to reach the open sir. Many of them were injured more or less seriously by the rough handling they received or from flying glass and timbers. e. . DAMAGE BY 8LIDE8. Snow Down Mountain Thundering Sides In Colorado. Denver.
