SUCH WAS EVIDENCE
GIVEN BY r. r. MEN

The inquest into the cause of the
wreck of the Oriental Limited at Bart
lett Monday, April Is, was continued
this morning, and may be concluded
some time this evening.
Today, General Superintendent
Bryan was on the stand. He was
questioned relative to orders supposed
to have been issued to engineers, tell
ing them to make up lost time. He
most emphatically denied that any
such orders had been issued The re-
ports to the contrary, he said, were
not founded on fact
Roadmaster Kennedy, of the Dakota
division, was also on the stand, as was
Assistant Roadmaster Clarity, of Lari-
more. Both testified that the roadbed
was in ordinarily good shape.
The testimony OF several local peo-
pie was also taken and, evidence was
brought out relative to piece of brok-
en- rail found near the place where the
engine left the track Some supposed
that this piece of broken rail caused
the wreck, but there is no direct evil
dence to that effect.
The railroad men on the stand were
at a loss to explain the cause of the
wreck, all of them believing that the
track at that point was as good as any
on the entire system.
Yesterday afternoon Conductor Lund
testified as to the speed the train was
going. T, E. Metcalf testified that it
was his belief that spreading rails
caused the wreck. Ike MCGOWAN, of
Grand Forks, testified that it was his
belief that the track slid to the south
side of the bed,
