FREIGHT TRAINS COLLIDE.
A Crash at the Race Track Wrecks Man
Cars-Trains DELAYED.

Cars-Trains Delayed.
Two freight trains collided near the race
track, on the Columbia & Puget Sound railroad
last evening little after clock .wreckng eight
cars, breaking the pilots off both engines and
otherwise damaging them slightly, but fortu-
nately no one was injured as far as reported
wild freight was sent out at o'clock, over
looking freight train No. Is, due at $50. The
incoming train had been doing some switching
at Claussen & sweeneys brewery and was just
pulling out, but had not reached a high rate OF
speed The outgoing train was also running
slowly. and both engineers reversed their en-
gines when they realized the situation, though
they were but short distance apart. The en-
gineers and tiremen jumped to save themselves,
Had not both trains been running slowly, it
would probably have been very serious wreck.
When the incoming passenger train from
Tacoma reached the place where the collision
occurred her passengers were transferred to an
other train, which had been sent out TO bring
them in. The 635 passenger train for Tacoma
was delayed several hours, but it was thought
the track would be cleared so she could leave at
II or o'clock last night.
