While shifting some cars an the river
switch last Thursday one Of the freight
cars run or the track. The ground being
wet and the track being near the river, the
wharf gave way and one car was thrown
over in the river and another derailed.-
Fortunately the water was not deep enough
to sink the car or the entire train, engine
included would have ueen pulled in the
river. Considerable damage was done
and the engineer and fireman received II
pretty severe shock.
