EXTRA FREIGHT
BADLY WRECKED
Telescoping Eleven Cars Just
Bfeyond High Bridge—No
One Injured.
j Siloam Springs, May 29. — As
extra freight No. 452 was pass
ing Decatur, rounding the curve
half a mile north of the station,
the tender of the engine left the
track, causing one of the most
disastrous wrecks known on the
K. C. S. road in a long time.
The train was moving at a
speed of about twenty miles an
hour when it entered the cut,
which is about thirty feet deep.
The first eleven cars were
completely telescoped and are a
total loss, except perhaps some
of the iron. There were four
cars of lumber, one of potatoes,
one of merchandise and five fiat
pars lnafipfl with nilino about 60
- ^
feet long. Some of the cars
were turned squarely across the
track, while others were crushed
into and piled upon the others;
the trucks buried in the track
; bod, and the entire number of
cars wrecked in the most com
plete sense of the term.
The train was in charge of
Conductor Fristo, Engineer Guth
redge and Fireman Matney, all
of whom escaped uninjured.
At the point where the wreck
occurred a high bridge spans the
deep cut for the public travel,
and the wrecked portion of the
train was just far enough north
to miss this viaduct.
