were relieved The congestion on the

hour and q half and all schedules

The train crew of the freight was as
follows: Engineer, Nate Tedrow; fire

posed of William Diel, conductor, and
James Robinson. nfotorman.
The accident is akin to miraculous
in that no deaths resulted. A probable
outcome Of this experience Is an en-
tire change In the route of the interur-
ban system en- route to the college
and Des Moines, so as to not ncccssi-
tate crossing the Northwestern tracks.
A new route that Is possible Is one
that will cause the interurban to go
under the Northwestern road at about
q distance of half mile west of the
present crossing where there is
small stream over which the North
western has built n great stone arch,
sufficiently high to permit the pas
sage of a trolley car underneath.
