THRILLING ENCOUNTER
On Locomotive Between "a white Man
and Negro

BIRMINGuAM, Ala, Nov. Con "a
freight train dashing southwark over
the Louisville ~ Nashville railroad at
the rate of 80 miles an hour late
Thursday night one of the most thrill
ing encounters ever recorded in fact or
fiction occurred. Two men, one black
and cralcd by drink, the other white
and conscious of deadly peril
engaged in life and death
struggle in the cab OF locomotive
which ended in the death of the Negro
and the miraculous escape from the
same fate by the white man. When
train No. 20. southbound, left here
Thursday night at 1918 p m. Engineer
Il. Bishop and Fireman Wiley Craig, col
ored, occupied the locomotive cab When
two miles from the city, Bishop told
che fireman TO stir up the fire. The
Negro paid no attention to the order
and IL was repeated. This time he
uttered an oath and springing from his
scat drew IA revolver and suddenly and
without warning fred n shot point
blank at the engineer. The bullet
missed him and the engineer struck
the revolver from the Negroes hand
just as the latter was about To fire IA
second shot. Craig, now crazcd
with rage, instantly drew knife
and grasping the engineer by the
shoulder pulled him from the box and
cut him in a dozen places across the
breast. Mr.. Bishop had pistol in his
hip pocket but ne was held for time
in such a position that he could not
reach it. Finally after desperate
struggle during which the two men
rolled over and over on the floor Of the
cab, Bishop managed TO draw his pis-
tol and fire. The bullet struck
the Negro in the breast and pene-
trated his heart. without IA
groan he fell back into the darkness TO
the ground. The train at that time
was near Oxmoor. There IL was halted
by the wounded engineer who told the
crew Of his thrilling encounter.
Bishop says his watch chain alone
saved him from "A fatal blow at the
hands Of the negro who welded his
knife with the savagery Of demon.
