city in the morning, and there was not a
little excitement until it was learned
that no one had been seriously injured
The statement in the official report that
came from headquarters at San Fran
cisco was that no one was injured in any
way, not even to the extent of scratch
or a bruise. Additional dispatches did
not correct this error until evening,
when DR.. Ainsworth, the Southern Pa
cific surgeon of this division, was sent
north.
1t was the general opinion Of the rail-
road men that the brakemen on the
train must have done very swift and ef-
ticient work to have checked the
train as much as they did before it left
the track.
The San Francisco train of yesterday
will arrive in this city about 8 o'clock
this morning. 1t is not expected that
this afternoons train will be much de-
layed.
Others Reported Injured.
1t is rumored, but not confirmed, that
Ben E. Ward, of this city, was thrown
from his berth and badly injured. Also,
that George F. Hatton, formerly of the
HERALD, now of the Oakland Tribune,
was crushed on the arm and injured ON
the neck by being thrown violently
against tank in the dressingroom.
Mr.. Hatton had been here for few days
visit and took the ill-fated train to re-
turn to his duties north.
