Fatal Wreck on Shelby Line.

Two men we're killed in the wreck of
a south bound passenger train on the
Shelby line at an early hour Wed.
nesday morning, the accident being
due to the soft condition of the track
from recent heavy rains. The wreck
occurred at a point where the railroad
crosses the Marias river, a short dis.
lance west of Fowler station, and is
described by the Great Falls Tribune
as follows:
The engine jumped the track, rolling
down the steep embankment and into
the river. The baggage car. in being
dragged into the river, pulled along
with it the undermined piece of track.
The smoker was pulled part way down
the bank and was cut loose from the
passenger coach, which remained on
the track. The engine was badly
smashed and lies partly submerged in
the river. The baggage car is upside
down and the smoker is lying on its
| side.
When the crash came, Engineer Joe
McClintock, better known as "Big
Joe,' vas thrown out of the cab and
almost across the stream. He lit in
the water and crawled out on the
bank. He was bruised about the body
and the shock of the accident was
hard on him.
Fireman Ramspeck was killed al.
most instantly. His body was found
floating free save for the weight of his
clothing that held him partly under
the water in the river. He vas prob
ably killed by striking the side Of
the cab. The body was taken to Con-
rad. where the inquest will be held.
The body of Watchman Sickler has
not yet been recovered. He was rid
ing in the cab with the engineer and
fireman. His body was located under
the boiler of the engine with his head
pinned fast under the tirebox. Late
last night his body had not been taken
from beneath the wreck.
