THROUGH A TRESTLE.
Terrible Plunge OF a Freight Train
on the Nickel Plate Road at Spring.
GaIA I'd.


Conneaut, July Zone of the most
disastrous wrecks in the history of
the Nickel Plate railroad occurred at
Springfield, Pa, few miles east of
this city yesterday afternoon. The
bridge over deep gully went down
under a freight train, the engine and
cars being piled up in a confused
mass at the bottom of the ravine.
p. o. Moore, of Conneaut, conduc-
tor of the train; George Schwartz, of
Springfield, foreman of a gang of
laborers, and seven Italians were
killed and ten other men received in
juries more or less serious.
The railroad has been trying to fill
in the gully around the bridge, and
the sand is believed to have spread
the supports. The trestle is 25 years
old. \ week or two ago the railroad
built temporary trestle and used it
a few days, but went back to the old
tracks again.
Yesterday afternoon a large gang
of men were at work underneath the
trestle. When the freight train ran
on to the structure it gave way, pre-
cipitating the engine and cars upon
the men beneath, with the result that
nine men were killed and ten injured.
The bodies of the dead were brought
to this city, but the names of the
foreigners are not obtainable at pres
e1t.
Among the injured are George
Brooks, of Cleveland o., inter
nally injured, not serious; Charles
McDermott and Ira Porter, of Come
aut, and seven foreigners.

Fifteen Thousand Acres of Wheat

Great Bend, Kan, July 9.-Fifteen
thousand acres of wheat went up in
flames here yesterday afternoon. The
fire was started by an unknown man
throwing a lighted cigar into field

for lighting fires, but to no avail, and
it was late this evening before the
fire was under control.

wheat will aggregate 100000 bushels,
nearly all in the western states.
