The train arrives at Asbury Park al

after which no stops are made except
on signal.
The miscreants piled ties on both
tracks.
The local freight train. which was be-
hind time, and running just ahead of
the theatre train" ran into the pile
OF ties, and came to a stop, with the
engines nose buried in the ties.
Had the train been running at a high
rate Of speed 1t would have been a total
wreck, AS It was. the engine was
much damaged. and the rails were torn
and twisted by the force of the blow.
Supt. Blodgett refuses to talk of the
wreck. The matter Is now In the
hands Of the Company's detectives.
