COLLISION AT KENNEBUNK.
sunrisc Express Runs Into An r asst
bound Freight.

Kennebunk, November ss-The fast
st. John express, known as the sun
rise Express" from St. ohm, N. b.,
for Boston, ooilided with an east bound
freight train near the kennebunk sta
ton at O'Clock this morning, and al
though both engines were badly damaged
and several OF the cars smashed, none
of the passengers or trainmen were seri-
ously injured.
Both locomotives were derailed and
these with the portions OF disabled oars
piled up along the track blocked traffic
for several hours on the main line, but
a side track soon was opened and the reg
ulsr running OF trains was resumed.
The express, which does not stop at
this place, was running at high speed
when the collision occurred, and 1t Is oon-
sidered almost miraculous that no fatali-
ties resulted.
The east bound freight had been set
off on sids track and the engine and
several cars had Just returned from
down the main line with two loaded box
cars and was backing in on the switch
whsn the express came bowling down.
The engineer OF the freight locomotive
turne1 on full power and attempted to
make the siding before the express
reached him, and he nearly succeeded In
doing this, as only about half of the
engine was on the main line when the
express dashed In,
The heavy engine of the express struck
the freight locomotive partly in the pilot
and partly on the side and both were
thrown from the irons,
A baggage car, one Pullman, and a
passenger coach were thrown from the
rails, considerably smashed and piled
up beside the track, but the occupants
were uninjured save general shaking
up.
Each locomotive was damaged to the
extent OF several thousand dollars, and
all three of the derailed oars will require
extensive repairs before they again are
ready for use
. The responsibility for the collision has
not yet been placed.
