SPECIAL TO THE INTER MOUNTAIN.
Missoula, Nov. a8.-Two freight trains
on the Northern Pacific came together in
head-on collision about three miles east
of Missoula this morning at o'clock. En-
gines No. 1855 and I,26o were completely
demolished.
The former engine was in charge OF
Engineer Sterne, who was badly injured.
His injuries, however, are not considered
necessarily fatal.
The fireman on the same engine sus-
tanned broken leg and was taken to the
hospital here.
The engineer who was in charge of
engine Lass was severely injured and the
physicians have but little hope for his
recovery.
Several cars we're completely demol
ished One car that contained lot of
furniture belonging to an army officer, c.
i. Griffith, now stationed at Portland,
was badly wrecked. The goods were be-
ing moved from Leavenworth, Kan. The
car was in charge of Henry Greenich, who
escaped without serious hurt. A man and
a boy boarded the car at Helena. The
former had his leg broken. The body of
the boy has not yet been found
Traffic Delayed for Hours.
All traffic on the line will be delayed
until 8 o'clock The wreckage is piled
up about the track for considerable dis
tance, but the wreckng crew, which ar
rived on the scene shortly after the acci-
dent, has been doing good work, and it is
thought that traffic can be resumed this
evening.
Just what caused the collision is no
known, but the accident is attributed to
conflict of orders. 1t is not yet known
whether the train which pulled out from
Missoula had its clearing orders or not.
The officials of the road will sift the mat
ter to the bottom and endeavor to place
the blame at the proper source.
