Train Wipes Out Party of Six Motorists

A Missouri Kansas Texas train struck a touring car near New Braunfels at about 9 15 yesterday morning killing six San Antonio residents and injuring a seventh who was in a dying condition. The victims were Mrs K W Smith and Mrs William Alex Garrett and Mr and Mrs Charles C Krueger plus two others and a three year old daughter. Garrett was driving and died later at New Braunfels hospital. The party left San Antonio for a Sun Day outing when the car was struck at an X formed by road and track as another car approached from the northeast. The train rolled the car over for about 109 yards and crushed the occupants. Identification came after 11 o clock via letters found in wreckage.
