Two Freights Come Together Near
Bardwell at Night and Strew
WreCkage For Yards
Members of Both Crews Are From Jack
son, Tenn, and Are Taken to
Fulton for Treatment
UNKNOWN TRAMP CRUSHED TODEATH

He was partly stunned, but when
picked up speedily revived.
His fireman, c. II. Hogan, was
not so fortunate. He was caught in
the crash and crushed in the body,
his injuries being pronounced fatal
from the first
William r. Peague, fiagman on
No. 65S was caught in the caboose
and fatally crushed. He was uncon-
sclous when his mangled body was
taken from the splintered caboose.
The body of the unknown white
tramp, a "1'respasser," was next dis
covered. It was under overturned
cars, and death apparently had been
instantaneous.
Tom Scott, colored, a brakeman
on No. $50, was thrown from the
train when the crash came, and fell
on his left shoulder, dislocating It,.
He was also badly bruised, but is not
fatally injured.
Physicians from Cairo and Fulton
were dispatched to the scene, and
with the assistance of Bardwell sur
geons cared for the injured. They
were removed to Fulton as quickly
as possible. and from there will be
taken home to Jackson, Tenn.
Officials from Fulton have been on
the scene constantly since the wreck
experimenting the work. Trainmas-
ter 7. l.. Dubbs, of the Fulton dis
trict received a partial report of the
disaster this morning. He stated tnat
the cause of the accident was not
known, and would not be announced
by the road until after the investi-
cation. 1t is understood however,
that the crew on the $50 ran by a
stopping point. Another report Is
out to tine effect that the crew of No.
65S had overlooked orders. Both
reports were denied, however, by Of
fcials.
Fireman Hogan and Engineer
Merritt are we'll known here.
Nashville Trains Detoured.
Because of the wreck at Bardwen
the fast flyers from St. Louis to
Nashville over the Illinois Central
and Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis had to be detoured via. Padu-
cab this morning. and the prettiest
trains on the southern lines of the
road proved novelties in this sec
ton. Long brilliantly lighted cars
pulled by the biggest and most pow
erful Pacific type locomotives were
detoured from East Cairo. to Padu
cab, and then Fulton, and then
Nashville, via. Martin Tenn. Mani
fest trains with dozens of cars came
through to give yard men more trou-

DOG DECLINES
TO ASSOCIATE WITH POLICEMAN
IN UNIFORM.
Brass Buttons and His Helmet Sever
Their Friendship of Long
Standing.

Policemen often get hard knocks
but the unkindest cut OF all is thai
Patrolman Sam Howell received
from his pet dog Tramp" He is
now debating on whether he would
rather be a beer wagon driver or a
policeman.
Patrolman Howell two years ago
made friends with a cur. He at the
time was driver of a beer wagon, and
Tramp" was with him all the
time. Wherever Howell was seen
Tramp" was somewhere near, and
no two friends were more constantly
together.
Howell was appointed a policeman
and a few days later came home
with a large bundle under his arm.
Tramp barked joyously as he enter
ed his house, but it was a different
tune the canine howled when his
master made his exit.
Dressed in blue with shining brass
buttons Howell descended the steps.
Tramp looked aghast and walking
cautiously up to his master shifted
once or twice, looked about in an
uncertain manner, and finally walk
ed silently away.
From that day Tramp" has had
nothing to do with his former mas
ter. He "shook" him cold, and now
follows Howell's son who carries
messages for the Western Union
Telegraph company.
