TIE PROBABLE CAUSE.

The section of road was supposed
to be the very best on the entire di-
vision Taere was heavy retaining
wall all along the bank. aud While
the tide was high yestefday, it was
not unprecedented. What seems to
have happened was that underneath
the tracks and ties the heavy wall
had given away, and when the great
weight of she engine struck the un-
supported tracks it went crashing
through the rest of the wall and top
pied over into the river. Then there
happened what on the railroad at any
other time would have caused disas-
ter bot nou proved a very blessing.
Asth train plunged over the em-
bankment the coupling that held the
last three sleepers broke and they
miraculousIy remained on the broken
track. In that way some sixty lives
were savedl.
Of eye witnesses there were none
except the crew of q tugboat passing
with q tow. They saw the train with
its light as it came flashing about the
curves, and then saw the
greater part of it go into the river.
Some of tho cars, with closed win
dows, foated, and the ting. whistling
for help, cast off it's hawser aud start
ed to the rescue
CAUSE OF TIE DISASTER
General Manager Toucey gave the
following statement as 20 the cause
of the disaster to the representatives
of the. Associated Press:
s.The accident was caused by the
bed Of the railroad being washed out
by some inexplicable manner. In
this undermined condition the track
sank as soon as the weight of the
train was put on it, and the embank-
ment giving way, the train was of
course precipl.ated into the river.
Such conditions as this we have
nsver looked for. Trains have been
running over this spot for years with
out accident or difficulty of any kind,
and this piece of track was consider
ed as good as any section of the rail
road. Not only was the roadbed the
hardest kind of an embankment, but
it was strengthened by retaining
water wall of solid masonry three
feet thick" J,
Other railroad officials were of the
opinion that quicksand of some
kind below the water line was respon.
sible for the sinking of the roadbed.
