here Sunday night in the car containing
the horses of d. A. HONG and Barney
Schneider. which were burned near Bag
dad Monday afternoon, got back yester-
differs from that contained in the dis
patch from Needles. He says the flames
started on the roof and blew inside
through the ventilators near the roof of
the car. The blaze was first discovered
over Schreiber's portion of the car and at
that time Rosebeau's back was badly
burned.
Our car was the third from the en-
gine,' said Brodie yesterday. but there
of the boys had to crawl through a small
window at the end of the car to notify the
engineer of our trouble. The train was
an express and was going at the rate of
about so miles an hour. 1t was fully 10
minutes after we discovered the flames
before the train came to a STOP Had the
fire originated on the floor instead hf the
roof we would all have been burned
alive. There would have been no avenue
of escape. When we. finally came to a
standstll we did our best to get all the
horses out. but some of them would not
bulge an inch. Ed Garland Umbrella,
Rosebeau, Schiller and Our Climate were
pushed off. Willie Doane had narrow
escape. The hair was all burned off his
head. Schiller and Our Climate got away
and when ! left they were running wild
on the desert The boys are trying to
find them. Garland injured his back
and may never be able to race again.
Umbrella was burned about the head
Hines also said that HONG and all his
men would return as soon as the two
runaway horses are located.-San Fran
