The train from Duluth reach a point a mile and a half above Hinckley some time after midnight, and was forced to return to a point five miles away on account of the threatening flatness' Half a dozen of the passengers, however, secered a hand car and -rode through the flames to Hinckley, taking the northbound train this side of there and returning on it to this city. On their return on the handcar they found 27 dead bodies along the line of the rail- way ; 17 were discovered at Ifinektey dart ing the morning and 12 others have been found. They say that the people of Hinck- ley ran to the woods when their houses caught fire, and as the timber afterevards burned it is more than probable that great numbers periehed.
