O'Clock. and as result was delayed
about 40 minutes in it's arrival here
None OF the passengers was injured
but the engineer OF No. got a
sprained ankle by jumping from his

A freight train had halted at Cherry
Run to enable the engine to secure
coal, and fiagman was sent back to
stop the passenger train. 1t is said
that the flagman returned to his ca
boose before he was summoned, and
this allowed the passenger train TO
come up at full speed In the mea
time the freight had gotten under
way, and was running at the rate of
six miles AN hour. and this allowed
the passenger train TO be slowed up
before the crash came. when the
engineer saw collision was ilnpend-
ing he jumped from his cab.
The caboose of the freight was
smashed pretty badly and The engine
of No. 6 was SO badly damaged that
another engine was taken from a
freight to pull the train east. Beyon
the delav to the passenger train, traf-
tic was not stopped.
