st. Joseph, Mssouri.-Four per-
sons were more or less injured none
seriously, however, when passenger
train No. %, from Kansas City to St
Joseph and omaha, ran into wash
out near Halls, a station eleven miles
south of st. Joseph.
The engine and forward cars Of the
train passed over the washout, but the
Jar caused the track to sink and carry
down the last three cars into the mud.
They were tilted and number Of the
passengers shaken and bruised. Ac-
cordrg to early reports, no one was
seriously hurt.
The engine and front cars remained
on the tracks. A serious disaster
probably was averted by the engineer
who slowed down his engine at this
point, and the train was moving slow
ly when the track gave way.
The washout was caused by the
heavy rains of Monday night.
