Fred Jones, OF Pittston avenue. clerk
in the Meadow Brook general store Of
William Connell 81 Co.. tells of what
he saw ut late hour Saturday night,
and what he believes to, have been n
diabolical attempt OF tramp to wreck
n passenger train on the Delaware and
Hudson Canal railroad near the Elm
street crossing.
Mr. Jones was visiting in Hyde Park
and left for home vt II o'clock. He
returned through Bellevue and across
the Elm street bridge. As he was
about to cross the railroad tracks at
the Elm street crossing he observed II
man lodging bars Of pigiron between
the rails with the evident view to de-
rail the train. Those acquainted with
the tracks have probably noticed that
on ono side two rails are laid only a few
inches apart. 1t was in this space that
the tramp had placed bars Of iron.
When Mr.. Jones discovered the pur-
pose of the fellow he ran swiftly to the
house Of family with whom he was
acquainted, and one of the boarderS
named Michael Burke accompanied
him to the spot, The tramp hearl them
coming and ran off as fast as his speed
would allow and disappeared down the
railroad tracks, in the direction
Of the South Works. They
did not follow him bu set to work hur.
rie1ly to remove the distractions
which they found some difficulty in
doing, as the bars had been wedged
tightly between the rails. They feared
if they lost any time in pursuing the
would-be train wrecker that it might
result in terrible catastrophe if u
train happened along.
Mr.. Jones describes the tramp as
above medium height. of heavy build,
wearing a heavy black mustache and
dressed in ragged clothes and u
broken derby hat of brown color.
The electric light close by enabled him
to obtain a full view Of the tramp
and he says he will easily recognize
him if he sees him again. Five min
utes after the pig iron was removed
the south bound passenger train for
Wilkes Barre. leaving the Bridge
street station at II 80. dashed by.
Mr.. Jones declares that he can sub.
stantiate his story by the man who ac-
companied him.
