.C0LIlDED IN THE FOG
Three Northern Pacific Freight
Trains in q Bad smash,Up
Near Gladstone.

A disastrous wreck, in which two en-
gines and five freight cars were badly
damaged and traffic blocked for several
hours, occurred about a. M to-day on
the Northern Pacific between Gladstone
and White Bear. No one was injured,
but the fireman and engineer Of the
northbound through freight were obliged
to jump. The wreck was due to the
heavy fog. =. "}.a
The southbound fast freight was pass
ing from one track to&another just north
of Gladstone and the northbound st. Paul
local was standing near the switch wait
ing for the fast train to get clear. Fol-
lowing the St. Paul local on the ten min
ute block system was northbound
through freight. The engineer, suppos-
ing that the local was out of his way,
was pulling in at high speed when sud
denly, in the fog ahead of him, he saw
the lights ON the caboose. He was too
near to stop his engine and avoid the col
lision so he set the brakes and jumped.
The heavy freight" engine crashed into
the caboose Of the local with such force
as to penetrate one-tllird the length OF
the car Five cars Immediately following
the engine were badly smashed and one
was thrown upon the other track, where
| it collided with the engine on the Du-
luth fast freight. which had by that time
reached a point directly opposite.
The smashed cars were filled with way
freight and the ground around the wreck
was strewn with pencils pieces of dry
goods and broken packages Of groceries
It took several hours to clear the tracks
