Washington, May 2.-It appears

The increase On fresh meat rates Is
regarded as the entering wedge to a

OVERLAND TRAIN
IS DYNAM|TED
Burlington Flyer
Blown From the
Rails
ENGINE AND CARS WRECKED
Outrage Occurs Near Butte,
Montana mo Clue to
Guilty Parties.

Butte, Mont, May 2.-West bound
Burlington train No. 6, due in Butte at
1880 o'clock last night, was dyna-
mited about one mile west of North
ern Pacific station No. 1877 last night.
The explosion caused the first helper
engine to leave the rails but it plowed
along on the ties for few hundred
feet without turning over The Sec
ond engine crashed into a high bank
on the south side OF the track, a few
car lengths from where the explosion
occurred.
Every person on the train has been
accounted for except Engineer Bussey
of the second engine who Is supposed
to be buried under his engine. Carl
Mango, tramp, who was riding on the
blind baggage had to be taken from
the mass of timbers under which he
was buried. He had one leg and an
arm broken. Fireman George Ehle OF
the second engine was badly scalded
The mail car was hurled from the
track and badly wrecked. A cold stor-
age car next to the mail Car was
smashed into kindling wood and the
express and baggage cars were de.
rallied. Only the Pullmans remained
on the track.
Revenge Motive for Outrage. q
The dynamiting is believed to bave
been the work of some hobo seeking
revenge for having been ejected from
the train. Engineer Lensie of the
first engine said:
I'VE were about 10 minutes late and
running about forty miles an hour
The line was perfectly straight and
we had clear track The first
knew was terrific explosion and my
engine, was lifted clear Of the track
but quickly settled on the ties along
which 1t. ran for about 300 feet. ! ap
piled the brakes but not before
the coupling was broken. The explo
sion was one of the most terrific
ever heard and for some moments
was unable to hear anything. After
applying the air shouted to my fire
man, John Dorring to jump and We
both dropped to the ground. ] am al
loss to account for the dynamite out
rage except that it might have beer
the act of hobo who had been thrown
off the train at some previous time.
Body Of Engineer Found.
The body of Engineer Bussey was
found this morning. Fireman Ehlt
is doing we'll in local hospital. bu
Mango, the tramp, died shortly afte
his arrival at the hospital.
Clue is Found.
The first tangible clue was secured
when the deputies traced the powde
used to dynamite the train to a min
located about mile from the seem
of the explosion. Forty-five sticks o
dynamite were stolen from this min
some time after 10 o'clock last night
It Is believed now that the entir
charge exploded as the locomotiv
wrecked was one OF the largest USE
in the mountains and 1t was complete
