Dead aud Fireman Swesringer Probably

/ Engineer Jim Kane and Brakeman
John Wolfe have been added to the
list Of victims Of the unluoky west end.
An extra stock train in charge of Con
ductor S. D. johnson, and drawn by
engine 558 struck a bull at $40 Mon
day night, just as the train was pulling
out Of Flagler, ditching the engine and
smashing six cars into kindling wood.
Engineer Kane, Fireman swearinger
and Brakeman Wolfe we're buried in
the wreck, and so badly scalded that
Kane and Wolfe have since died, and
Swearinger is not expected to recover.
The train, which consisted of Is loads
of stock, had stopped for water at Flag
Ter, and we're just pulling out when the
engine struck the animal, which turned
the front trucks down the grade, the
engine following, and turning over
nearly on its back. The three men
we're in the cab and were all thrown in
a heap at the foot of the engineers
seat, where they were pinned down by
the levers and the weight Of the coal
from the tank. The water and steam
cocks we're broken off; which let cut
enough hot water and steam to scald
the imprisoned men in 2 terrible
manner.
Conductor johnson and Brakeman
Randall attempted to get the men out,
but as the weight Of the coal and tank
were upon them, their efforts, although
all that human power could aceomp-
Iish, we're not sufficient, and they we're
forced to wait until relief could come
from Goodland.
The Wrecking train was got out and
sent to the scene of the accident, but
did not arrive until about II o'clock.
Fireman Swearinger was the first taken
out as be was held down only by the
coal, but Wolfe and Kane we're in a
worse place, and it was something after
2 o'clock when the imprisoned engineer
was taken from the engine, and ne died
10 minutes later
The remains of the dead man we're
brought to GoodIand on No 6, which
arrived at 9 o'clock, being held back by
the wreck. The body was embalmed
and taken to Stuart, Ia, Tuesday morn
ing, where it will be inferred Mr.
Kane leaves a wife and five children,
and though a member of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers and
several secret societies, is reported to
have had no insurance.
Wolfe and 6wearinger we're brought
in on the freight, after having their in
juries attended to by Drs. Smith and
Rush, who were taken to the scene Of
the wreck by the relief train.
Wolfe's condition was such that re-
covery was impossible and at 9:45 Wed
nesday morning death triumphed His
remains we're taken to Pueblo for
burial Thursday morning. He leaves
a wife, having been married about one
year.
Fireman Swearinger, although terri
ably scalded, has a chance for recovery.
He also is married man of little less
than two years, the family consisting
of himself, wife and little child.
Railroad men say that the animal
that caused the wreck was in the habit
of lying on the track and had coca
stoned much trouble and anxiety.
