Thought Engine Was Standing; Side Track and Went Ahead at Full Speed on DETROIT, Xov. 2s. When night fell over the scene of yesterday evening's awful calamity on the Wabash llailroad, near Seneca, those who had been investigating Ih? disaster estimated about eighty I've lost the result of the collision.

The bodies of ight of these have been recovered, and it is considered that the ii. laments of other bodies now in the morgue at Adrian will account for manv more than the twelve dead necessary to make up Sujpti iiitendeiit liurna' estimate of twenty.

Xo steps hive been taken as yet toward the a i rest of Kngineer Strong, whom Superintendent Burns nays is responsible for the collision' and holocaust. Engineer's Fatal Mistake The cause of the wreck was a mi-ntail-ing of orders by L'ngineer Strong, of the Continental Limited. The order, it is chained, read "Pass at Seneca," but Strong understood it to read Sand The conductor of the train did not Uimw that the engineer had misunderstood the order, and supposed that his tiro'ii was going on a siding.

Finding that, the train was running rapidly, the conductor put on the air brakes himself, but it too Jatc. The two trains clashed together and the ears on the west-bound train were crumpled up in a heap of ruins. Engineer Strong slated in positive ttrni" to un Associated Press reporter that hi, order directed him to pass trains Xo. aud 3 (the later closely followed Xo. Ki from Detroit) at Sand Creek.

Said i strong: I "1 saw the headlight of Xo. 13 four or five miles before the collision occiin'ed. ibut I suuposed the train was side tracked iat San Creek, waiting for uo to pass. 1 gluie of the powertul electric headlight made it impossible to sec the exact location ot tin: other train. We must hac been running miles an hour.

hen we sa wthat they were on top of us I saw I must jump." There was a bridge light ahead ami 1, did not want to fall in that, so I waited until we were past it and fell. 1 here was only slight embankment, and the crash came right after I let go. I rolled fully three lods. When I came to there was my eiinine on one side of me and the trucks of the second car, which was telescoped, on the other." Strong and the hi cman were both hurled 3(MJ feet, but although scratched, cut and terribly jarred, they weie not seriously liiiureu. I Superintendent Burns to-day said that (Engineer Strong- of Trjin Xo.

For the first- time in nine years Cornell defeated Pennsylvania yesterday on Franklin Field by the score of 21 to t. Xine years ago the games with Cornell were begun, and Pcnn has always been able to pull out a victory against the Cor-nellians, no matter how unprosierou9 her season, until, this year. The Ithacans yesterday beat Pennsylvania all the way in the game, with the exception of the last half of the hrst half, when Penn braced up and stopped Cornell's nin-s for a time. It was the closing game for Penn this seasou, which has been the most disastrous one for many years. The Ithacans came here coniident of winning, and they did not deceive themselves.

Perm played valiantly, as she has done in every game, won or lot, but to no purpose. She was outplayed and could not stop the Ithacans in their rushes acros the goal line. It was end runs that won for Cornell. The New Yorkers skirted around the outside of the line in beautiful style, the runner carrying the ball behind interference that the Quakers were unable to break up. Crowd on the Field It was a holiday crowd on the stands, and fully 20,000 braved the cold and the high wind to view the game.

For a time the contest was interesting, but even Philadelphians, lovera of football, know when, they have had enough." Before the game came to an end the crowd swarmed the gridiron, and it was necessary to clear the field before the game could con- This is a thing that the crowd has never done before at Pennsylvania, and was totally unlooked for. However, the day was a very cold one and the game had grown into more or less of a farce. The crowd had just learned that McGovern had been knocked out by Corbett; they forgot all about the beautiful long runs made by the Cornellians, and, surging down the aisle of the stands, they jumped the barriers and ran across the gridiron. So many persons got on the field before the police could interfere that it was necessary to stop the game to put every one back of the side lines. It was an eventful finish to an eventful year for Penn.

The team has been a failure. There has been grumbling and discontent and Coach Woodruff has resigned. The crowd seemed to have caught the unrestful feeling and left their seats in the which they have always kept no matter what happened. Cornell Full of Confidence The Cornellians, expecting a victory, came down from their hilly home in large numbers and made themselves heard at the game. They were always cheering and on steveral occasions presented far even louder demonstrations.

The first came in the first five minutes of play, when Coffin circled around Penn's right end. lie was beautifully protected by his team mates, and the Quakers were boxed in handily. Coffin started from Cornell's 37-yard line and ran over Penn's goal. It was a 73-yard run and done so trickly that the ball was plated behind the goal posts almost before Penn realized what was coming off. The next chance came along after the close of the first half, after Penn had scored six points.

Turn bull caught the ball on his own forty-yard- line from a quarterback kick, and, dodging the Pennsylvanians. placed the ball back of the goal line for the second touchdown. Cornel 1" third cause for special cheering happened in the opening plays of the second half. Getting the ball on Penn's fifteen-yard line, after the Quakers had been penalized ten yards for off-side play. Coffin dashed around right end and waj over the line before he was downed.

I Generals Alban and Jcffiies have arrived here and were received at the railroad tion by the guard of the United States gunboat Machias and the British second- class cruiser Tribune. They have come to try to arrange terms for discontinuing the struggle.

A cont'd ence between Liberal and Conservative representatives arid the officers commanding the i'oteign warships-was held to-day on board the United States gunboat Marietta in the harbor. The commanding officers of the Muii-etta, of the British cruiser Tribune and of the French cruiser Suchet and Lieutenant Commander McCrea, of the Machias, and Captain Perry, of the Iowa, were present, as were Generals Alban and Jeffries, representing the government of Colombia, and Senor De Ea Rosa, secretary to General Domingo Diaz, who represents the Liberal party of Colombia. Xo information of the result of this conference has been made public, and none of the details of the understanding arrived at has leaked out. It can be said upon the best authority, however, that the Liberals will surrender Colon to-morrow to the government authorities. United States marines guard Colon tonight.

Many unreliable statements concerning the terms of surrender are current on shore, but the only men informed in this regard refuse to answer questions. Colon is quiet, but much anxiety prevails. The railroad telegraph line, which was cut yesterday evening, hart been repaired.
