to the scene of the accident today. Cur.
sorry examination made by Mr.. Deuel.
last night revealed nothing wrong with
the rails so far as could be determined.
He said this morning that he could
not tell the cause of the trouble with
out an investigation by daylight.
One of the passengers, a man with
much experience in road building, said
he examined the rails over every inch
of the way. but could find nothing
whatever wrong with them. The rails
were firm and well ballasted, and ap.
parently as nice piece of track as
could be found anywhere. He added
that the trouble was probably with the
cars. but not being an expert along
that line he was not prepared to say
such was the case.
While the wreck is a sad affair, as
such occurrences always are, 1t does
not seem that any one is directly to
blame. Whether an investigation will
bring that to light or not remains to
