Wreck at Meyer,

The entire population of the town
of Meyer were thrown into state
of Wild excitement Tuesday morning
by smashup on the Short Line
right in front OF the depot. The
entire population consists of the
telegraph operator who answers to
the anti-Japanese name Of Coalinski
but the accident was as real as If the
town contained ten thousand souls.
An eastbound extra was doing some
work In and around the Yards at
that place and in some manner three
or four of the tourist Pullmans got
away from the string and ran down
the hill to the depot and there crash
ed into several cars standing in
front of the depot. Five or six
cars were pretty well demolished
and the wreckage scattered over the
roadbed, the signal wires put ont of
commission, and the roadbed itself
torn up but the damage was but
nominala and the debris soon cleared
