position Of the Injured.
Special TO the Standars.

accident occurred one quarter of
amile east of Drummond this
afternoon. As the west bound
passenger train No. 1 was pulling into the
station the rails twisted TO one side and
threw the rear sleeper from the track.
That pulled the front sleeper and the rear
end of the dining car off. The chain con-
Meeting them snapped and the dining
car jumped back onto the track. The
sleepers rolled down an embankment
about ten feet high and fell ON their sides
about forty feet apart, jarring and break
ing the glass and timbers. Many people
were hurt, but only one fatally.
The list of dead and injured is as fol-
lows:
Miss MARY c. CARSON, 15-year-old
daughter of DIR. Carson, surgeon at Fort
Sherman, Idaho, returning from school
at Germantown, Pa. hips crushed between
the car and ground; died at Bonita one
hour after the accident occurred.

cry Is very doubtful. The patients have
received the hest of care from DIR. Buckley
