TWO 4RANPS Killed
And a Train Of IS Cars Destroyed
on the B, & o, Road
BY THE FALLING OF A BRIDGE
That was Almost Durued Through
Yesterdays Accident near Bell
ton-Narrow Escape OF Train
Handkerchief Resumed,

About 8 o'clock yesterday morning an
accident occurred on the main line OF the
B. & o. at the bridge crossing Hartman's
creek, near Bolton, about thirty'hye
miles from here, that resulted in the
death OF two tramps who were stealing
q ride, and the burning and total de-
struction Of fifteen freight cars
and their contents, The train
was from the West, bound
East; as It rounded the curve Just this
side of the bridge the engineer, named
Cusick, and his fireman noticed that the
bridge, which was oneof the old wooden
structures, was on fire aud blazing fierce
ly, Cusick instantly signaled that the
bridge was in an unsafe condition,
and sounding an alarm on
the whistle, reversed his engine
and with his fireman, jumped, A brake
man, who was In the centre Of the train,
also saw the danger and jumped OF,
These three men were considerably
bruised by their breakneCk jump, but
did not mind that in view Of the fact
that had they not escaped as they did,
they would certainly have been killed,
The train rushed on to the bridge,
which went down as soon as the engine
struck it. The heavy engine followed
TO the bed Of the creek and the cars
piled over on top OF 1t, crushing 1t into
an almost shapeless mass OF metal,
The cars caught fire from the blaz-
ing bridge timbers ahd were rapidly
consumed, together with their contents,
as there were no means at hand OF OK.
tin~guishing the fire. Two tramps
lost their lives. The fortunate break
ing OF a coupling pin was probably
ali that saved the caboose from being
caught in the wreck and burned with
the balance OF the train. There were
several men in 1t who were severely
shaken up, The two tramps who were
killed went down in the crash aud their
bodies were burned to q crisp. A third
tramp managed to escape.
A wreCking train and bridge train was
ordered up from Grafton, and by 2
o'clock in the afternoon a temporary
bridge was In position and interrupted
travel was resumed. The loss to the COM
pany will amount to considerable. II
was rumored last evening that the gem
eral s~upposition Of the officials was, that
the bridge had been set on fire by per
sons with malicious intent, but nc
definite yeriication Of this could be had,
