COUNTED OUT
BY DEATH


Engineer Neil B. McGinnis, a
veteran in the service Of S. p.
railway, was killed in a collision
two miles east of Lordsburg last
Saturday night about l0:45.
Five runaway freight cars,
heavily loaded with steel rails
and building material, broke
loose from a string of 10 cars in
the Lorbsburg yards about 10
o'clock Saturday night and
crashed into No. 7, the west
bound California limited. The
runaway cars had gained a fear
full speed before they collided
with the oncoming passenger
train.
The passenger was late and
was travelling at a speed of prob
ably fifty miles an hour. Engi-
neer McGinnis was instantly
killed, and his fireman, Pat
Sullivan, was badly scalded, but
while painfully injured, it is
thought he will recover. The
fireman leaped from the cab Just
before the collision, but before
jumping he shut off the oil,
thereby putting out the fire in
the boiler and averting what
might have been a fire horror
after the collision.
AS soon as possible the yHrd
crew at Lordsburg started after
the runaways in switch en-
gine, but the cars had gotten too
far away to be overtaken.
The passenger train and run
aways struck while both were
going at a high rate of speed and
the force of the collision was so
great that the tender Of the
passenger engine was driven
through the cab and up against
the boiler. The baggage car
just behind the engine was
crushed as though it were an
eggshell. Fortunately the bag
gagernan had stepped into the
chair car, otherwise he would
have been killed.
Engineer McGinnis was prob
ably killed as he was getting
ready to jump from the cab. His
body could not be found Satur-
day night, but Sunday morning
i; was found buried beneath the
tender. He was about So years
cd and resided at Ell Paso with
his wife and five children. lie
was at one time a resident of
Deming, and popularly known
by the railroad men here, who
are deeply afflicted at his tragic
death.
The remains were taken
through here Sunday afternoon
at 3 o'clock on their way to FL
Paso for burial, the track hav-
ing been cleared of the wreckage
hv unon Sunday
