of Three Miles.

WASHINGTON. y. J.. Jan. l3-The
forward truck OF a loaded eastbound
freight train on the Lackawanna Rail-
road was thrown from the rails just be
fore entering the Oxford tunnel through
a breakebeam dropping 10 the tracks.
The train was running about twenty
miles an hour. IT went 10 Port Wash
lngIOn, three miles away without further
mishap- At this point d sharp curve
was taken. and the wheels took the rails
again on a closed switch. None OF the
trainmen knew that anything had hap

a strange feature OF the affair was
that the fanges Of the wheels clipped
on many OF the spike heads holding the
rails. Some or the rails were found TO
be without q whole spike. Many of
them were without any fasteningS. and
how the rest of the train escaped being
wrecked is inexplicable All trains had
