EIGHT CARS WRECKED FREIGHT TRAIN ON PLANT SYS- ITEM GOES THROUGH TRESTLE Accident Occurred at oluskee Creek. Crew Escaped Injury-Passenger Delayed, But Will Run
 Through Today.

Between 5 and 6 o'clock yesterday evening local freight train No. 323 of the Plant System, bound toward Montgom- cry, ran into broken trestle over Olus- kee Creek. thirty-eight miles from Mont gomery and eight cars were derailed. No one was injured.
 Meagre details of the wreck reached Montgomery, but it Is known that the derailment of the cars caused a break which will impair traffic on the road un- til late today In fact, 1t was said last night that trains could not pass the wreck until 6 o'clock this afternoon.
 The local freight train was in charge of Conductor Anderson and Engineer Wooten. The train was not running fast when the wreck occurred. It is believed the trestle had been weakened by the recent heavy rains. Conductor Anderson went to the telegraph office at Ansley which Is distant two miles from the scene of the wreck and reported the mat ter to the office of Superintendent Beau pre- in Montgomery.
 The passenger train due here yesterday evening did not reach Montgomery. The passengers spent the night in Troy at the expense of the railroad company. This morning transfer train will go to the scene of the wreck and they will be brought to the end of their journey.
 Superintendent Beaupre was not in Montgomery yesterday. His office r.- ported that he was al the other end of his division and that it was expected he would go to the scene of the wreck to- day.
