The Santa Fe fast mail from Kansas
City met with an accident at Tecumseh
this morning similar to the one which
happened to the plug" a few days ago
The tender of the engine left the
track within ten feet of the place at
which the tender of the plug jumped
the rails. In the accident this morning
the train was stopped before reaching
the switch. and only the tender trucks
left the track
The engineer anticipating something
of this kind was running quite slowly
over this stretch of track. Had the
train been running at fun speed a ser
iOus accident might have occurred. No
serious damage was done and the train
was only delayed about an hour and a
