SMAsH-UR At GOLD Run Yesterday
morning about 4:30, while freight train No.
6, west-bound, was descending the hill near
Gold Run the automatic brakes failed to
work for some unaccountable reason, and
the train escaped from the control of its
crew. notwithstanding the efforts of the
brakeman and conductor to stop it by APP
plying the brakes by hand Freight No. I,
which meets No. at Gold Run, was going
IN upon the side track at the time when
No suddenly appeared running at q speed
of about % miles per hour. Eight cars of
No. were well on the siding when loco
motive No. 202, drawing train No. 6, struck
the ninth car back of the engine of the
other train, completely wrecking it, and
also seriously damaging the freight car
ahead of 1t and an empty emigrant car
which was behind it. Engine No. 202
turned a somersault and is now lying on
Its side, part way down the bank, with its
tender and three cars of freight on top OF it.
The engineer, Henry Kern, jumped from
the engine and escaped without broken
bones, but is hurt internally and badly
shaken up, but his injuries are not believed
TO be dangerous. The fireman also Jumped,
and spralned his ankle. Nine cars of train
No. were wrecked. The wreck took fire,
but the Blue canyon fire train arrived in
good season and eXtinguished the blaze. A
car of oil came near being one of those
broken up, just getting off the track. If it
had been among those wrecked there would
have been lively fire. There was car
load OF race horses on train No. I, en- route
from Oregon to Winnemucca but none of
them were hurt. The wrecking train left
Sacramento for the scene of the accident at
Z A. NJ, got to work by 10 o'clock, and had
the track cleared for the passage of trains
early last evening, but it will be several
days before the engine and damaged cars
are all picked mp.
