AN OK ON THE TRACK.
II Caused a Freight Wreck on Central
New England Road.
Engineer Was Pinned Under Locomotive
but Not Seriously Hurt

Collinsville, Conn, June 23.-An east
bound midnight freight train on the
Central New England railroad was
wrecked near Canton. two miles from
here, early This morning in a peculiar
manner.
A stray OK wandered onto the tracks
and was struck by the freight locomo-
tive. The animal was instantly killed,
its body being almost cut in two. The
engine and eight cars, however. were
derailed and portion of the wreck
caught fire. The engineer, Timothy
Farrell, was caught under the wreck
and IL required the work of three hours
10 extricate him. Greatly to the sur
prise of mis- rescuers IL was found that
he was not badly injured. Fireman
Daniel Hickey was thrown some dis
tance and sustained internal injuries.
Traffic is blocked. but passengers are
being transferred around the wreck.
