One Reported Killed.
Pittsburgh, Pa, Jan. IA. = Early
Tuesday morning special freight
train collided with the engine of Il local
freight which was standing on Mahon-
ing bridge, IS miles north of Pitts
burgh OH the Allegheny Valley rail-
way. The local engine was knocked
overheard and fell into the Mailoning
river, 60 feet below. The boiler of the
wrecked engine exploded, setting fire
to the bridge and several freight cars,
which were destroyed. No one was
killed. Several members Of both train
crews are reported injured.
About $3.50 o'clock an oil tank car
standing near the burning bridge be-
came ignited and exploded, scattering
a daluge of burning oil in all direc-
tions. A large crowd had assembled
on the hillside overlooking the scene
of the wreck. OF these about 200 peo-
pie were exposed to the force of the
explosion and to the rain of fire which
followed. All were Frustrated by the
fearful concussion which shook the
vicinity like an earthquake. Nearly
every person present was burned; some
of them seriously. Many windows in
the village of Mahoning were shattered
and some of the buildings considerably
damaged. The heat is so intense thai
men cannot safely approach to remove
other tank oil cars that are exposed
and other serious explosions may fol-
low.
