Three Trains Wrecked.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-Three trains on
sthe Baltimore & Ohio railroad were wrecked
at Beltzville, twelve miles from this city,
to-day. Particulars were meager, but it
seems certain that the damage to the trains
was great, although no lives were lost. So
far as can be learned, the noon train was
stopped at Beltzyille by snowdrifts. The
2:10 train on the same line ran into it from
behind, smashing the cars badly. While ef-
forts were being made to clear the track
the 3:55 train came up and ran into the
other trains, also doing great damage. A
little later the 4:t0 train came up, but was
stopped by drift only hundred yards
from the spot where the other three trains
were piled up. But for this it would have
been added to the ruins 1t is said here that
no fiagmen were out. There were only
thirty-five passengers on the trains, all told,
and none of them was injured. Most of
them took refuge in farm houses. but a
crew came TO this city on foot. They suf-
fered severely from the cold. The wires are
down and no information can be obtained
except from them
