west, yesterday morning. While the train
was under full speed, about twelve miles wess
Of Iowa City, an axletree of the locomotive
tender John A. Dix gave way. The train
was about twenty rods from small trestle
work at the time of the breakage, but it was
fortunately, passed in safety; but when about
forty rods beyond the bridge, the mail and ex-
press car few from the track and we're precip-
itated down an embankment Of fifteen feet,
having turned completely over. The mail
agent was bruised slightly; Mr.. Root, the con
ductor, and Mr.. VIM. Smith. we're badly but
not seriously injured. The front passenger
car was thrown from the track and down the
embankment, turning over on its side. Al
though it was about half filled with passen-
gers, strange TO say, no one was hurt The
last car remained on the track. Considering
the circumstances, the little injury done to
the passengers seems miraculous.
