ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS
AN ALLEGED ATTEMPT TO WRECK
A TRAIN.
Statement From the Company Officials
That Obstruction Was the Re
suit Of Accident.
Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
ALEXANDRIA, Va, May g. 1904.
1t was stated today that a daring, but
unsuccessful attempt was made last night
at St. Asaph, mile north of this city. to
wrick the southbound Chesapeake and Ohio
fast passenger train, which passes through
Alexandria about II "a pm, and that but
for the vigilance and prompt action of
Operator Virgil Davis, who was on duty
in the tower at st. Asaph, coupled with
surprising blunder on the part of the would
be wreckers, the derailment of the train
would doubtless have been accomplished
At point between the tower and the over
head railroad bridge, a half mile further
up the track, it was said, two heavy rail-
road ties were placed on the main line. the
switch light close to the bridge was taken
out Of its position and turned so that red
was showing up and down the line and
closer to the tower. at the switch where the
track Of the Southern turns off from the
double track block system, a stone had been
damned down between the rails.
The officials of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railway this afternoon declared, however,
that there is no truth in the report. Cen
eral Passenger Agent H. w. Fuller stated
that a full investigation was made by the
superintendent of the Washington division
Of the system, and that it was discovered
that the two ties found on the tracks fell
from work train. and that one in falling
bounded and struck the switch apparatus,
breaking the lever, but not the lamp He
stated also that no stone was found in the
switch
The crew of the train was aware of the
accident, it was stated, and the tracks were
cleared and the switch repaired some time
before the arrival of the T. f. Y. train,
and that the latter was not in danger of
being wrecked
1t is also stated that the operator at st.

order to prevent any mishap, 1t being
feared that the tracks might have been
otherwise injured
1t is recalled that the same train has
been the object of many attempts at wreck
ing in Fairfax county, particularly at Raw
ellsworth, about twelves miles below this
city, and this probably gave rise to the
rumor
The last attempt which was made against
this train there two years ago resulted In
the derailment of the New York and Flor
ida express. which running on the time
of the Chesapeake and Ohio. Mr. Davis,
who Is one of the young operators of the
road, and who lives in this city, has been
warmly congratulated for his prompt and
energetic action.

Edgar Kelley,

Is one Of the present members of the
state house of representatives, and
is one of the farmers of Grant
county who has made a success of his
occupation. Coming to the county
in an early day, by industry and a
discriminating application of sound
theories in husbandry he has made
bis farming operations profitable to
himself and been instrumental in de-
veloping the country. He makes no
claims to being a statesman, but is
endowed with good, sound, judgment
and common sense. and is a man Of
unblemished uprightness of character,
whose vote and influence is not a pur-
chasable quantity. 1t has been the
custom in the past for the party to
endorse by a denomination and cleo
ton its members in the legislature
who have served but one term. There
is every reason why this endorsement
should be extended to Mr.. Kelley, and
there is no good eason why it should
not be extended to him.
