Other Notes.

As usual all trains are running on
time and everything is settling down
quietly about the various railroad Of
fees. Business is beginning to pick
up considerably both in travel and
freight shipments, especially in regard to
the former, the Santa Fe having to run
extra care both on the overland and San
Diego trains. The Southern Pacific is
running through trains via Ogen, 26
passengers going east over the Union
Pacific yesterday from here. Freight
via this route is also being handled,
with the exception of perishables. One
OF the officials Of that road stated yester-
day that all kinds OF freight would prob
ably be received, beginning today or to-
morrow.
Things are quiet at the strikers
headquarters on San Fernando street.
In fact, it could give pointers to grave
on being mum. All is quiet and gets
more so every day.
The Santa Fe overland from the east
got in late again last evening with q
heavy passenger list. The delay occurred
east OF Albuquerque.
A SMASH UP.
The first accident with the new crews
took place a. the Santa Fe depot yes
terdsy afternoon. The private car OF
MIR. j. De Nsir, master OF transportation
on the A. and P. system, was standing
on the side track close to the viaduct
In the car were Mr.. De Nair, his wife
and several other ladies, the party in
tending to have gone east in the car by
the oy erland which left at p. N. The
switch engine was backed down the
siding for the purpose OF taking the car
out to attach it to the train. The engine
was started with too great speed, and
got beyond the control OF the engineer,
Thomas H. Peck, and smashed heavily
into the end OF the car. The force pushed
the car across platform in the rear
into the viaduct, the roof striking one
the iron cross beams. The hood Of the
car, which covers the platform, was
badly smashed. as was the end OF the
coach. The viaduct was also broken,
and the side by the cross beam being
pushed out Of shape. The Car was taken
to the shop for repairs and MIR. De Nair
and party had to take passage on one OF
the cars of the overland.
