East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1910-02-11

A dastardly attempt to wreck the
Portland-Pendleton passenger train
was made yesterday afternoon. one
mile east Of Quinton station or ia
miles west of Pendleton. It is sup
posed that tramps elected from train
No. l. which had passed that point
30 minutes before, are responsible for
the attempt to get even on the train
men by destroying the property OF the
company and taking the lives OF other
trainmen and innocent passengers.
Fifteen feet of the heaviest rail-
road steel used on the road had been
placed on the track and but for the
fact that the locomotive which was
drawing the train happened to be one
with low pilot, the train would GER
tainly have been wrecked and lives
would undoubtedly have been lost.
As it was the pilot caught the OBJ
struction and showed it along on the
track for 40n feet before the train
was stopped. The rate of speed at
which the train was travelling and the
effect that a sudden wreck would
have had can thus be seen.
Train No. I. westbound. passed this
spot half an hour before and the two
tramps who were elected there are
supposed to have been the ones who
placed the rail on the track The
train was delayed nearly half an
hour while a search was made for
the attempted wreckers and detectives
were Immediately dispatched from
The Dalles to take up the trail. As
the line is being watched in every
direction it is believed that the trampe
VII be taken into custody today.
