Ten Chicago Junction Cars
Laden With Dressed
Beef Ditched.
TRAFFIC IS DELAYED
Michigan Central Engineer Sticks to
His Post and No One
Is Injured.

In rear end collision between two
meat trains last night on the Michigan
Central and Chicago Junction roads at
Calumet Park, ten cars of meat were
ditched and the meat was strung along
the tracks for over fifty yards.
The west bound meat train on the
Chicago Junction road, due through
Hammond at o'clock. had made the
yard entrance at Calumet Park and
were waiting for the target to enter
the yards The conductor, however,
had neglected to place a flagman at
the way car to flag other trains that
might come in on the same track, with
the result that when the Michigan
Central through meat train from the
east came laundering along on the
same track, it crashed into the rear of
the Chicago Junction train, knocking
ten cars off the track and demolishing
two of them.
Engineer Reed of the Michigan Cen
tral train stuck to his post although
it seemed inevitable that his engine
would also be ditched. McCloskey, his
fireman. and the head brakeman, whose
names could not be learned, jumped
when seeing that there would be a
crash. 1t is said that McCloskey was
badly bruised.
Had there been any men in the Chi
| cago Junction caboose they surely
would have met their death as the cal
was crushed. Only a few minutes be-
fore the collision occurred, two Chi
cago Junction men were sleeping ir
| the car and had come out to see what
was causing the delay. The men car
now congratulate themselves that they
came out when they did.
After the collision the Chicago juno
tion wrecker appeared on the scene
/ and the wreck was not cleared III

John Peacock Brutally AS
saulted Between Stand
ard Steel and Hammond
SIEzE ON VALUABLES
Thieves Get $28 of Victims Money,
His Watch and Chain and
ether Plunder.

Beaten and robbed of his money and
watch, John Peacock. a carpenter en-
ployed in building the tenement houses
at the Standard Steel Car works, had
an experience that he Will long re-
member, early last Monday night. So
badly was Peacock used up in the
scrimmage with the two men who he
says waylaid him, that he was un-
able to report the matter to the police
until yesterday, having been confined
to his room in Hammond since the
hold-up.
Peacock states that he was in the
settlement about the work until about
1880 p. m. on Monday night and that
while on his way to Hammond he was
the victim of the attack. He was pass
ing a vacant building near Columbia
avenue, when he states. two men
jumped out from the darkness and one
OF them struck him a blow in the face
which stretched him almost senseless
on the sand.
Although in semi conscious condi-
tion he gave battle TO the men. and in
striking one of them, bruised and
strained his wrist severely. He was
finally compelled to let go the man he
struck and as he staggered back re-
ceived a blow from the second thug
who came up behind and hit him in
the back of the head. This blow COM
pletely took away his strength and
as he fell, one of the men held his hand
over Peacocks mouth, while the other
proceeded to rifle his pockets. In a
purse he had SIS in money and his gold
watch and chain was fastened to his
vest. Both were lifted and the robbers
not content with this booty. even went
SO far as TO fasten the gold links from
his cuffs, which they also carried away.
Administer Parting Kick.
The robbers then administered a
final parting in the shape of a severe
kick on their victims head and ran
into the prairie. Peacock lay uncon-
scious for some time after the assault
and was finally able to pick himself uI
and proceed to Hammond
He claims that he was unable to
identify the parties concerned in the
robbery on account of the darkness
but says that a number of men have
been threatened in a like manner ir
the vicinity. Owing to the small po-
lice force in Hammond. the district is
not patrolled as it should be- although
