THIRD AND FOURTH WARDS

A collision occurred on the Main
track of the Missouri Pacific railroad
last night shortly after dark, near the
trestle works above the Union depot.
A freight engine going at consider
able rate of speed backed into "A switch
engine which was standing on the
track, and injured it so that it will
have to be sent to tire machine shops
for repairs. No one was hurt, but the
loss OF an engine will be severely felt
by the company, as all the available
engines are in active service and the
want of more motive power has already
somewhat delayed tire transportation
of freight over the road,
Last night about quarter past eight
O'Clock rs the mail transfer wagon was
coming from the depot up l7th street
the driver, Mr.. II. b. West, noticed II
ditch across the street just below the
Clark house in front OF the compress
and i'm attempting L, drive around IL
one of his horses became frightened
and wheeling suddenly turned the
wagon over, breaking out the tongue
and caughting Mr.. West under it. He
held on to the rcius until the horscs
broke loose from the wagon and ran
away. Mr.. West was badly hurt
| about the arms ana hands ana one OF
his legs around which the reins had
caught was injured. The horses ran
up Front street and turned the corner
at Houston and ran clear up that
rect and had not b en- found
at late hour last nightt

that in backing his horses away from

reins not broken when they did, Mr..
West would probably have been
killed, rs they had caught around one
ofhis legs. There was no mail in the
wagon at the time the accident oc'
cured.
