injuries. Brakeman w. NJ. johnson of the
westbound train, who lives at Pleasant
Mound, Mo-. had both legs broken.
The collision was caused by the crew OF
the westbound train mistaking the orders
and pulling out from Elijah instead of TAX
ing the siding. The trains were both
through freights and were running at a
high rate of speed when the crash came.
The engineer and fireman of both trains re-
versed their engines and jumped for their
lives. Engineer Hogan seemed dazed be-
fore he leaped. and his fireman. John Smith
pushed him from the cab. AS he struck the
ground one of the cars rolled from the
track upon him, crushing him to death.
The two trains came together with ter.
rife force. Both engines were demolished
and twenty-three cars were wrecked, th1r
teen of which were loaded with live stoci
and merchandise. The wreckage caught
fire from the engines. and the flames com
municated to the dry grass growing on tn,
