Southern Pacific people say tn at the
switch where the accident occurred was
purposely left open by some ml,crea MT A
similar accident took place on the same
spot two weeks ago, but no serious damage
was caused at that time. About o'clock
yesterday morning train ran over the
same track in safety, and no accident would
have befallen the second train had not the
switch been changed in the meantime.
II was few minutes after o'clock when
Engineer Mahlyre started from the depot
at Fourth and Townsend streets with train
of thirteen cars. These were loaded with
cattle, sheep and hogs. Because there are
no shifting switches on the short run the
trains are backed Instead of pulled by the
engine to the stock-yards, and owing to the
grade the cars were pushed at the rate of
ONLY about ten miles an hour.
When the cars struck the open switch
M0lloy was thrown on the rails and run
over Engineer Mahlyre set the brakes and
shut off the steam. Two switchmen named
Qainn and Kelly were found living in the
dirt to the left of the derailed train. They
had been thrown from the top of a car and
escaped with numerous cuts and bruises.
They were soon on their feet and ready to
iOSuiut hOih IL.
After MOloy was sent to the hospital an
inspection of the wreck was made, and
seven cars we're found to have been de-
rallied. As they left the track on an incline
they tumbled over tracks and ties until they
collided with long train of oilcars loaded
with petroleum and standing near a shed
belonging to the Union Oil Company. The
rear car struck the oil train glancing blow,
and only three of the cars were damaged
The living freight in the cars was not in
jured.
A force of men was sent to the scene. and
before noon the damage was repaired and
the cattle were on the way to Butehertown
in other cars. Division Superintendent Me-
Cormick said the switch must have been
opened by some one who had a key. When
the previous accident occurred big water
tank was demolished. The DougherIy fam
lily, which lived in shanty near the scene.
were so badly frightened yesterday that
they packed up and moved away.
