A THRILLING INCIDENT.
Chattanooga Times.

a man named Thomas Beasley
met with shocking accident on the
Nashville and Chattanooga railroad,
near Whiteside yesterday, the details
of which are thrilling in the extreme.
Just beyond Whiteside is the Run
ming Water trestle, which stretches
across deep gorge and is $50 feet
high About IL o'clock yesterday
Beasley started to walk across the
trestle. He had gone about thirty
feet when he heard low rumblng
sound, and the next instant he was
horrorstricken to see the Memphis
and Charleston fast freight dart
around a curve coming directly to-
ward him. He stood in the centre
of the trestle for Il moment transfx-
ed with terror TO attempt to turn
back meant instant death and he re-
solved to have race for his life
across the trestle. In his hurry to
outrun the train and escape the fright
full death which stared him in the
face, Beasley made mistep and fell.
The engine passed over him, but a
brake beam caught in his clothing
and dragged him fifty feet, when one
Of his legs was caught under the
wheels and cut off Just above the ank-
lie. The discovered member lay for a
moment on the end of the crossties,
but the jar of the train displaced it
and it fell into the ravine below.
When the train had passed over the
the trestle, Beasley made an attempt
to staunch the flow of blood, and in
doing 50 his body slipped between
the ties. The next moment he was
suspended between heaven and earth,
his coat sleeve having caught on Il
projecting spike. There he remain
ed suspended for five minutes, ex-
pecting every moment his coat sleeve
would tear and he would be dashed
to death on the rocks one hundred
and fifty feet below. The train men
came to his assistance and rescued
HIM from his perilous position. lie
was taken to Stevenson on the train,
whore he received medical aid. Beas-
ley is about fifty years Of age and says
his home is in Philadelphia. He was
en- route to Nashville in search of
work when he met with the accident.
His injuries are very dangerous, but
! not fatal.

Tennessee and she Western & Allan
tic is more bitter than ever. The
former road has established an Office
in Nashville and announced reduc-
ton of 10 per cent. in rates to the
Southeast and to jacksonville. This
carries the war into the territory of
the l.. q n, and will involve that
line. All the cuts are made from
Chattanooga as base, each of the
warning lines having local rates from
Nashville and Knoxville to Chatta-
nooga. The trouble arises from the
fact that both have parallel roads out
of Chattanooga to Atlanta, and no
pool arrangements will be observed.
