Cheyenne Flyer Crashes Into
the Boulder ACCommoda-
ton Near Brighton.
ONE KILLED. MANY INJURED
Among the Latter Was the Aged Father
of Charles H. Payne, of Boulder.
Who Was Badly Hurt.
BOULDER TRAIN WRECKED.

| Frlghtful Result of Collision Near
Brigton This Morning.
Denver. Dec. 2o-The Cheyenne flyer
OF the Union Pacific which left here at s
o'clock this morning. collided with the
Boulder accommodation six miles south
OF Brighton, killing one person and inJur.
ing seventeen, OF whom six will, prob
ably, die. The engine, baggage car,
smoker and one day coach were wrecked
and the passenger coach on the rear OF
the accommodation train was demol-
ished.
The dead:
Winfield Randalman, baggageman Of
OF the flyer. cremated.
The seriously injured:
John Payne, badly crushed and bruised.
Body and legs crushed.
S G. Hurst. banker OF Brighton. crush.
ed and bruised. May die.
F. V. Davis, Denver travelling man.
head crushed and ribs broken.
G. w. Tompkins, travelling salesman
from Kansas City. seriously injured.
William Law. brakeman. Denver, leg
cut of, will. probably, die fIom loss OF
blood.
Six section hands bound Tor Boulder
were all seriously injured.
The flyer was to have passed the &C.
commodation train near the scene o! the
wreck. but. though Conductor McAl!ister
OF the latter. had orders 10 draw out on
a parallel track and give the flyer RICH,
of way. it did not. Why he didn't Is not
known. Certain it is that when he saw
Randalman burning in the wreck, Nc
Allis,er became frenzied and he was
grappled and bound to prevent, his
jumping into the flames. |, was terri
bic sight. Randalman was pinned BY
the wreckage OF the baggage car and he
burned in plain sight. However, he
showed no agony and i, is believed he
was knocked unconscious puof to the
cremation.
The accommodation contained num-
Der Of workmen bound for Boulder, two
or three women and several citizens of
Brighton. All these were more or less
hurt. The fire department; OF the town
worked vallantly to suppress the con-
fiagration OF the wreckage and the citi,
zens OF the place converted their homes
into hospitals for the wounded and rend-
cred every assistance. The flames played
sad havoc with the baggage and mail
cars. Conductor Cahill OF the flyer had
his leg hurt but hobbled abou, making
himself useful.
The accommodation train lett an hour
ahead OF the flyer and had positive
o, ders to take the side track at the point
near the accident. Conductor McAllister
sent his brakeman back TO flag the flyer,
bu, in the fog the latter's lantern was no;
seen.
John Payne. one OF the badly injured
passengers, has a son in Boulder and his
residence is gwen as that place. His
age is such as to render his condition
precarious. He. with the others. is now
in the company's hospital.
