 That the above referred to wreck was the handiwork of train wreckers there can be no doubting. One of the rails, almost at the edge of the trestle, had been taken up and replaced and fastened down, eight inches out of plumb and that the casualties were no gerater can only be accounted for as a miracle.
 A number of Birmingham people were on the train. among them being MT. Tyler, of the Tennessee Cial, Iron and Railway company, who informed his friends here by wire that no one from this city or vicinity had been injured
 Passenger train No. 3, north bound, due here at 12:01 p. m., was about four hours late owing to transferring having to be resorted to.
