Fatal Railroad Accident at KenOsha.
Mountain, Col.

DENVER, COL Sept.9.
Two serious accidents occurred yesterday
afternoon at Kenosha Mountain, South
Park Road, in which seven employees were
injured, three it is thought fatally, includ-
ing Conductor Livingston. A freight train
had been made into two sections going
down the hill. The first section made the
grade successfully, but at it's base ran into
a construction train, injuring four men, but
none fatally. The second section was less
fortunate. just at the top of the immense
grade, while running at the usual speed,
the engine jumped the track, and the cars
back of it were telescoped down the EN-
bankment. Z. s Foster, engineer; Edward
Lake, head brakeman, and Conductor G. f.
Livingston were injured, probably fatally.
The wreck was a terrible one. The wounded
men were extricated from the ruins and
brought to this city, arriving this morning,
when the particulars were first learned. 1t
is said, through some unknown cause, the
heavy train got the mastery over the en-
gineer, and rushed down the mountain
where the grade is two hundred feet TO the
mile with terrific velocity until a sharp
curve was encountered, and the engine le I
the track, completely wrecking the whole
train. That any one escaped instant death
is almost miraculous.
