AGED

Cars Wrecked and the Track Badly Dam
aged.
Yesterday morning near Cameron
two B. & 0. freight trains collided,
badly wrecking number Of cars and
damaging the track to a considerable
extent. The accident, as near as could
be learned, happened about IL o'clock
and was caused by freight trains 81 and
SO running into each other 1t was a
case of carelessness on the part of the
engineers, and besides the wrecking of
the cars, Michael Shields the well
known conductor, had his leg caught
in the wreck and mashed so badly that
he had to haven't amputated above the
ankle Dr. r. w. Hall, of Moundsville,
performed the operation. Both engin-
GERS overlooked their orders and this is
the cause of the whole thing The
track was blockaded for several hours
and it required the wrecking crew to
get the road in its former shape. Con-
ductor Shields is a well known employee
and has been in the service of the road
many years. His accident at this late
date is quite shock to his friends,
and he will be greatly missed off the
road. The above employees who are to
blame for the accident will have their
trial at once, and will, no doubt, be
dismissed from the service.
