Locomotive Derailed and Exploded.

The New York and Chicago limited express
train on the Pittsburg, Fl Wayne 4 Chicago
railroad met with an accident two and halt
miles east of Salem, Ohio, Thursday morning
The train, containing twenty-nine passengers,
was running at a high rate Of speed around a
sharp curve along an embankment, when the
entire train, consisting of the engine, a combi-
nation car and three Pullman cars, left the
track. The boiler of the engine exploded,
either just before or just after the accident oc-
Cured, and it will probably never be determined
which. Engineer James Richards and Charles
Rhodes, the fireman, were instantly killed, and
their bodies were buried nearly four hundred
feet from the point where the accident occurred
The engine was turned completely
around and thrown over the embankment A
Pullman sleeper, containing twelve sleeping
passengers, crashed down upon it, where it
still lies on it's side. The passengers in this
car were severely shaken up, but miraculously
escaped without serious injury. The COM
bined smoking and baggage car rolled down
the bank behind the sleeping car and was
thrown against the sleeper and engine, serious
~, but not fatally injuring the train baggage
man, Mr.. Sneider. The two remaining Pull
man cars were derailed, but suffered less in
jury, the passengers in these cars escaped
with but little or no injury. Twelve passen-
gers, including H. j. Douglas of Fort Yates,
Oak, were slightly injured Engineer Rich
ards lives in Pittsburg and Fireman Rhodes at
Alliance, Ohio. The escape of the passengers
was most miraculous, as it seems almost i'm
possible that any one should have come out
