LYNoHBURG, Va, July 2.-The Aduance
gives the following particulars "a fearful
atastrophe occurred about mile west OF
Thaxton's at l o'clock this morning on the
Norfolk and Western Railroad, by which 40
passengers were killed. The accident was

Ford is said to be very badly hurt; Major
]. G. Cassell, superintendent of The Lynch
burg division, was seriously Injured L.

PHILADELPHIA. July president F. J..
Kimball, of the Norfolk & Western R. R.
who has his headquarters in this city. when
seen this afternoon in relation to the aoci
dent on his road this morning, said that
while the wreck ia serious one and has re
suited In the loss of life, the report tele
graphed from Lynchburg that 40 persons
were killed ia greatly exaggerated. Mr.
Kimbal Is in direct telegrapbio communi
cation with the general manager of the road
The information furnished him up to one
o'clock this afternoon, is that FIVE persons
we're killed, nearly all of whom were train
hands, and quite number CT persons 10
nred. The train wrecked was known as
No which left Roanoke few minutes be-
fore midnight. A heavy rain storm had
prevailed throughout Virginia for about
forty. light hours, and the train was moving
slowly and behind schedule time when 1t
ran into washout about 1:30 this morning
near ThsXton's. The Locomotive and sew
eral cars were thrown uto the ditch but the
sleeper remained on the track. The cara
caught fire after falling into the ditch and
quite number of passengers were severe
ly burned, In addition to those injured
by ihs wreck. kilograms were at once
sent to Roanoke for assistance and in short time
a special train arrived from that city bearing fire
company and number of ply sicians. Five per-
sons are reported to Mr.. Kimbal as having been
killed and a number injured, but as yet no names
have been forwarded to him.
