DEAD IN MONTANA WRECK
TWENTY-TWO KILLED AND 11 SERIOUSLY INJURED.
A Northern Pacific Passenger and Freight Train Collide in Snow Storm.
Livingston. Mont.-Burlington Passenger Train No. 16, running on the Northern Pacific tracks, which left Livingston eastbound at 5:05 Friday morning, met a westbound freight train in a head-on collision at Young's Point, a siding about 88 miles east of here, during a blinding snowstorm. Fireman Babcock of the passenger train and Fireman Tom Phillips of the freight, both of Livingston, and Head Brakeman Milo Halloway of Billings and 19 passengers were killed outright, and 11 other passengers and the two engineers, the mail clerks and baggagemen on the passenger were seriously injured and will probably die.
The freight which was an extra westbound in charge of Conductor Hickey, was heading at the east end of the siding on short time when the passenger train, running head-on into the blinding snowstorm, struck them.
On account of the storm neither train had any warning, and the passenger struck the freight engine full In the side, telescoping the mail, baggage cars, smoker, crushing the day coach and pinning the passengers and train-men beneath the splintered wreck of engines, passenger and freight cars/
