There was quite a serious wreck on
the other side Of Wooton on the Ra-
ton mountain about 6 o'clock this NOR
ming, in which t~wenty-eight cars load
ed with merchandise were ditched, in
GLIDING the two engines. No n was
hurt except Engineer Leason, who had
a leg broken. The cause of the wreck
was the breaking in two of the train,
ditching the train which afterwards
caught fire and was almost entirely
burned up. The wrec%ing crew was
Immediately teiegraphed for and left
here at 8 O'Clock with a forty-five mile
per hour schedule. The particulars
were not received here in full, for 1t
being on the other division, they were
te~legraphed through to Superintendent
Fox, who was up the road. The wreck
is one of the worst freight wrecks that
has occurred on the road for some
time, and the loss is considerable, not
only on account of the cars being burn
ed, but upon the destroyed merchan-
disc. The trains from the north, Nos.
1 and Z are expected to arrive here at
6:10 and 7:10. as at present calculated,
but as the wreck was not clear until
