that the contact rail- which some think caused
The accident had not been working properly,
and that Il had been necessary at times for the

in Instances where the trestle work spans streets

means TO break up the car bodies which may
be inside will float. Some bodies which may
be lying on the mud bottom of the stream may
also be recovered.
The wrecking crews of the railroad company
