DEATH OF AN ACTRESS

Doctor And

Daughter

Manila, Sept. 3.

About 80 people were reported to have been killed and 47 seriously injured yesterday when a lumber train went out of control and collided with a wagon heavily loaded with logs on the line between the towns of Fabrica and Sagay in Negros Occidental Province in Visayas.

The train involved in the accident was the biggest owned by the Insular Lumber Company, reputed to be the largest sawmill in the world.

The accident was believed to be the worst train disaster in Philippine history.

The police said that the number of dend might reach 100 or more.

The train was approaching a downgrade curve when the drawhend which connects the train to the wagona snapped.

The momentum brought the full impact of 28 loaded wagons against the train and derailed 16 cars which plummeted 100 feet down to the jagged rocks below the bridge.
