construction train under TIE charge of
Con,;uctor Lawr nee was throw n Il the
trek hear the Morgan mill, and four of
the twe..ty-one Chinaman who were be-
!nS Transported to Il place ON the road
where their labor WAS required, received
more or less severe injurie>-two of the IL
being 80 severely injured that they died
soon after the occurrence of the acci-
dent. From Conductor Lawrence We
learn the following particulars: The
trim, which consisted of the engine
STOREY" and tender and one fiat car,
had been slowed up to afford time for "a
quartZ-waSon to cross the road ut a point
where there is :, planked crossing-j just
II little way beyond the mill; and when
this wagon was well clear of the rails
the train WAS driven slowly ahead until
this plank work WIS reached at which
place the Il It car with its load of China
men WAS suddenly thrown from the
track When the shock came the most
Of the Cinnamon either jumped off or
fell off he side Of the track and were
unillured: but those who were hurt re-
c-iv,d their injuries by being jlmmed
between the car and the tender. Inv
renee says they would persist in riding
with their ltts dangling down over the
end Of the car, and that when the cap
size took place they slid or jumped be-
tween the cars instead of leaping Off the
side. The wreck was cleared rs soon as
p'ssi-l and the injured men taken care
of. One o. them, whose name as
We are informed by Dr. All K.e.
WIS All Gnow, died III II few minutes
after receiving his Injuries. He was
dre;.dfully crushed about the bones of
TIE hips and pelvis. The other three
were brought up by the train rs soon rs
il cnuld be lighted. and all those who were
hurt taken to Chinatown. One of them.
All HOY by name. and who had sustained
fracture of the thigh and WAS other
wise crushed died soon after getting to |
Chinatown: Zip Ying. who got a very
s'v re confusion npon the head is pro- !
nounced by Dr.. All kee to be very dan
seroasly hurt, and the other. whose !
nam- We did not learn, received IA cut on
one of his anklts--his injur es are very
slight. Lawrence thinks that the acct
dent WAS cnnsed by the car striking
against broken plank on the crossing
referred to-thinks it was broken in
such a way as that one end of it
stood up like g srag" in river The
reason why the fiat was thrown off and
not the engine was that the train was
backing. All the uninjured Cinnamon
cut and run like a drove of stampedrd
mustangs when they got upon the r feet,
and couldnt he coaxed to stop and seq
whit had become of their Injured fell
lows probably were too much alarmed
t. know that any Of their number had
been hunt at all. Taking the statement
Of Conductor Lawrence as true. We can't I
see that anybody is to blame. He saws
there was Il thick cloud of dust envrl-
onine the crossing and cars when the
shock came. i
