Wreck Near Glasgow.

A disastrous collision occurred Tues
day near Glasgow. A train Oh sheep be-
longing to @. w. Taylor of Choteau, col
lided with west bound light engine
running out from Glasgow to the Saco
gravel pits. The engineer who left Glas
COW overlooked the second No. s (Which
was the sheep trair). The two locomo-
tives met with terribly force. The sheep
train was running at the rate of over SO
miles per hour. The ligh5 engines seems
to climbed right on top OF the other and
both were completely wrecked. Chas.
Strahan, brakeman, AL. Neitzlxe and b.
Peion, two frelnen, we're killed outright.
Masseugale was terribly injured and
| died the same day at Glasgow. He
leaves a wife and several children. James
Kennehan, the elgineot o. the light en-
glne, had both legs broken and is now at
Glasgow. There are so1le rumors cur
rent regarding him, which, if true, makes
the matter of placing the blame easy
Those On the train, Who escaped, were
terribly incensed against the engineer, in
spite OF his injured condition, AMI he
narrowly esc2pel lynching at tdeil
hands. Nine ears were SMASHED, and u
traffic suspended for nearly l. hours.
c.. w. Taylor, Glare Drake, and twe
others from Choteau we're in charge o
the train of sheep. They escaped with
little or no injury.
Later: Since the above was written ;
, coroner's jury has rendered yerdic
