The engine and two baggage cars
passed over the break without being
derailed, but the next car which was
the mail car, left the track, several
Others doing the same. The force
of the rear part of tie train pushed
the cars quite a distance over the
crogs-ties, finally turning over a bag
gage coach and pushing the mail
coach down the bank into the creek.
In the mail car were five clerks, who
had a miraculous escape, as not one
of them were hurt. AS the car left
the track they knew what was COM
ing and braced themselves for it.
The baggage master in the other car
was also unframed. The rail which
caused the wreck was broken in thir.
teen pieces, and railroad men say it
was the most wonderful break they
ever saw and cannot be accounted
for. Engineer Supple, of this city
was in charge of the train. The mail
and baggage in the wrecked cars
were transferred to others and sent
on their way East by the next train,
some of the mail being damaged by
lying in the water. A large number
of people fiocked to the scene OF the
wreck all day from the time the
news spread, camera fiends got in
