Denver, August 8—The Eastern fast flyer was wrecked this morning 40 miles east of here. Two train men were killed, five passengers seriously. injured and many others hurt. The names of the killed are John Ward, engineer, and W B.

Byers, the nearest town, is a mile away. The conductor walked there, arriving at 5o’clock. He notified the railroad officials at Denver by telegraph, and a wrecking train with physicians aboard was soon on its way to the scene of the catastrophe. In the meantime the dead and wounded were being attended to by the passengers who escaped injury. x Will Lynch Him. Marrewav, N.
