FREIGHT CARS DERAILED,
A Peculiar Accident on the Southern
Road at the Crossing
Yesterday.

A rather peculiar accident happened
on the Southern road yesterday morn
ing, as result of which several freight
cars were deraled at the crossing be-
low the depot and one of the cars bad
ly damaged. AS a north-bound freight
on the Southern was crossing the c.,
N. & l.. track about 10 o'clock yester-
day morning, for some reason unknown
one of the cars refused, to follow the
lead of the car just ahead, and instead
took the c., N. & l.. track, forcing the
coupling loose and running up the c.,
N. & l.. road several feet. Two of the
cars behind were derailed, one of them
violently pitching and standing almost
on end. A wrecking crew Immediately
went to the scene and succeeded in
clearing the c., N. & L. track in very
short time. At the time of the arrival
of the Southern's passengers at /
O'Clock the Southern track had not been
cleared, however, and the Southern's s
trains were forced to use the c., N. &
l.. track between Prosperity and New
berry.
The accident was very peculiar. Why
car should fail to follow the car in
front and strike off in another direction
on diverging track is not known by
railroad officials.
Freight traffic on the Southern was
delayed several hours.
