OF A TRAIN
IN DITCH AT FLINT,
Seaboard Flyer is Wrecked
Yesterday.
BIG ENGINE WAS OVERTURNED
Accident Occurred In Curve Near
Flint River and Was Bad One
Several Cars DemoIished-No One
is Badly Injured.

Flying towards Americas almost as
fast as her big wheels could turn of
the miles engine $50, of the Seaboard
System, left the ralts yesterday morn
| ing at point rear Flint River and
took a header down steep embank-
ment, carrying with her to destruction
several carloads of freight.
The wreck was quite bad one and
the track was blocked for three or four
hours. A transfer of passengers was
made when the passenger trains met
there in the afternoon.
The train wrecked was a through
freight, and was running at a lively
rate Of speed. This fact, perhaps,
caused the tram to overturn at the
sharp curve, as the rails were said to
be in place. An official investigation,
yet to be made, will determine the
cause of the accident.
The engine rolled down the embank-
ment, carrying with it three carloads
of watermelons and two of general
merchandise. The engine was buried
under two of the cars.
Several other cars left the track, but
as they did not roll down the en-
bankment as did the five cars next the
engine the wrecker easily pulled them
on the rails again A wrecking train
sent from Americas repaired the dam
age wrought.
The $50 was just from the Americus
shops, where it was rebuilt recently.
Engineer Cotswold and the fireman
were hurt very painfully by the over
turning of the engine, and their es-
cape from death, even, seems miracu-
lous. They were taken at once to Cor
dele for medical treatment.
The accident occurred between Gum
Greek and Flint River bridges, about
twenty miles east of Americus. The
wreck was soon cleared and the after
noon train went through to Helena as
usual.

HANDLED GRAIN sY TRAINLoAD
Vast Quantity of Western Product
Sold Here.

ST am tired of the work of handling
SO much grain and will be glad when
the crop here begins to move said a
retail merchant yesterday, and the tall
pyramids OF corn, oats and hay in his
store but tended to emphasize the
statement just made.
Further information revealed the
fact that his house had indeed sold a
stack of it,
Up to this date, the merchant said,
his firm alone had sold forty carloads
OF corn and oats and ten carloads of
Western hay. These alone would make
up two long trains.
This house does about one fifth of
the supply business in Americas, per-
haps, and a little figuring will show
that the trade here has bought already
this summer fifty carloads of Western
hay and two hundred carloads of corn
from our cribs there.
A carload of corn is 800 bushels, and
at 80 cents per bushel is worth the
goodly sum of $720.
And if one carload of corn is worth
$720, two hundred carloads, our sup
ply to date, has cost us the princeIy
sum of $144, 900.
Think of $144, 600 being paid out in
Americas for corn alone. Gee Whlzz,
what an object lesson. Now add to
this amount an equal sum paid for
Western meat, and then let's go and
pay for those fifty cars of oats-if the
money holds out.
In other words, it will take some
thing like $500, 600 to settle for our
farm supplies. Verify, it costs money
to raise cotton, with our meat bins and
barns in the West.
