         [Victim of Dec. 26, 1903 Pere Marquette head-on train wreck]
         
         Grand Rapids, Mich., December 30 - (Special)
         Another has been added to the list of victims of the Pere
       Marquette wreck of last Saturday evening. Conductor GEORGE
       NEIL, of Saginaw, who had been suffering at Butterworth hos-
       pital since he was carried there from the wreck, passed away
       early this morning and the number of fatalities was increased
       to twenty-one.
       
         Not until last night were NEIL'S injuries looked upon as
       of a fatal character. He was considered to be improving
       until yesterday afternoon, when he commenced to weaken.
       He was conscious until near the end, and was attended by
       his wife.
       
         NEIL was conductor of the ill-fated No. 6. He was 33 years
       of age and owned a farm about sixteen miles from Saginaw,
       where he resided with his family. Besides a widow, NEIL
       is survived by two children.
