EXPRESS ENGINE
JUMPS THE TRACK
Scores Of Passengers We're in
Peril in PennSy Wreck
at South Street

Scores Of passengers on the New
York and Washington express which
left Broad Street Station yesterday
morning had narrow escape from
death or serious injury when the loco
motive was derailed and overturned as
the train was passing South street
station.
When the engine left the rails the
engineer, after jamming the air brakes,
jumped with his fireman, and neither
was badly hurt.
That the coaches we're not derailed
was due 10 the action of the engineer.
The coaches. swinging from side TO
side. were about to topple over when
the engine overturned and, fortunately,
snapped the coupling between the ten
der and baggage car. This good for
tune gave the cars sufficient equili-
brium 20 hold fast to the rails. and
was the means OF saving many from
death.
Passengers Badly Jared.
The passengers. some of whom were
lunching in the buffet cars, were con-
siderably Jared when the brakes were
iammed and much confusion resulted.
However. their fears were quickly al
layed when the coaches remained up
right on the rails.
The ponderous locomotive. kissing
and enclouded in steam, lay on It's
side in momentary danger of eXplod-
| ing.
That the boiler did not blow up is
probably due to the breakage OF sew
eral valves. which allowed the steam
to escape IN volumes.
At the time of the derailment, 11.15
o'clock, the train was making about
twenty miles an hour and the engineer
was increasing his speed. Traffic was
delayed about thirty minutes while a
wrecking crew cleared away the mass
OF debris.
