SIX PEOPLE KILLED.
DISASTROUS COLLISION ON THE
D. g. r. c.
by Two Trains Running Too tlose To-
gether

Salida. Colo, Dec. 5.-The Denver &
Rio Grande siding six miles east Of
Salida, known as English, was the
scene of n disastrous wreck yesterday
morning.
The list of killed and wounded is as
follows:
Killed:
Charles E. Osgood of the Colorado
Fuel 4 Iron Company, Denver.
ii. X. Matthews, travelling freight
and passenger agent of the Burlington
road, Denver
Sumner Barnes, Denver
Mrs. George Porter, wife of Engineer
Porter of the Denver * Rio Grande
railroad, Grand Junction.
A. NJ Johnston, Oberlin, Ohio.
Unknown man.
Injured seriously:
Thcmas NJ. German, 2S25 Downing
avenue, Denver.
George w. Pierce. prominent mine
operator, 1910 Sherman avenue, Den
yer.
j. E. Brown. Canon City.
1t was n rear-end collision, the blame
for which. If any exists, will he hard
to place, because of the peculiar cir
cumstances from which the accident
arose.
Narrow gauge passenger train No. s.
bound for Montrose. was run into by
the Grand Junction broad gauge No. Is
which was following but few min
utes behind.
The narrow gauge had been tagged
at English by quarryman. 1t was
brought to sudden stop. The man
said that mule had stuck fast in a
small bridge just ahead and he stop
ped the train to prevent wreck.
He was told of the broad gauge
which was following close. and be ran
back to flag No. Is, but before he
could get back to the end of the stand
ing train his lantern went out. and, as
it was quite dark, train No. 10 came
laundering along and was almost on
top of its luckless predecessor before
the engineer of the broad gauge got
flash of the rear lights of the sleeper
and reversed his engine.
1t was too late. however. to materi-
ally check the impetus of the heavy
train. With n fearful crash and
shrek 1t went against and into the in
ert train. the engine forcing its way
some distance into the superstructure
of the sleeping car Durango" wreck
ing 1t and also the coach ahead.
AS soon as possible a relief train was
sent out from Salida, and the dead and
injured were given immediate atten-
ton. The groans of the mangled un-
fortunates, mingling with the roar Of
steam escaping from the valves. added
to the nerve racking horror that pos
sessed the unhurt passengers, who
groped about in the darkness trying to
find and aid their kapless fellow trav-
elers.
The Holly chieftain., 1899-12-08
W. H. GREEN.

hearty old man, with keen, undimmed
eyes, and springy step that has been
In the continuous employ Of the COM
pany for so years and is still better
than many men half his age.
W. H. Green is his name, but every
body on the line calls him Captain
Harry" and he has a record that any
man, in any station in life, would be
more than proud OF.
Captain Green is probably the old
est passenger conductor in the world.
II he is not he has the best record, for
not once has he been suspended from
duty for any cause whatever. And
then, too he has never been injured.
Green was born on September II, 1927,
In Cockeysville, Baltimore county, Md,
and entered the B. & o. service March
B, 1850, as freight brakeman. He was
promoted in two years to freight con-
ductor and in 1857 was given a pas
senger train and has served In that
capacity ever since. He is now run
ming through trains between Baltimore
and Cumberland. Md, and wears ten
service stripes on his right arm.
For many years B. & o. train en-
ployes have had an enviable reputa-
tion for politeness to passengers and
attention to duty, and the adoption Of
the service stripe system will give the
travelling public an opportunity to rec
ognize long and faithful service.
