SIXTEEN KILLED IN
ROCK ISLAND WRECK
Train Davhes Through Bridge
Into Raging Torrent

Clayton, Kan, Sept. "a Sixteen
known to he dead, probably others
killed and their bodies washed away,
and II injured, is the record of a
railroad wreck which occurred on the
Rock Island railroad, two miles east
of this place, when a fast train ran
through an open bridge into 20 feet
of raging water. Nine of the dead
have been identified, while seven are
as yet unknown. Others may have
been washed away by the torrent.
The stream is at ordinary times
simply dry arroyo with no water,
with its bed 80 feet below the level
of the railroad bridge. A tremendous
rain fell and the ordinarily dry bed
was soon. filled. to the brim with a
wild torrent. The bridge itself was
quickly broken up and carried away.
The locomotive tender and bag
gage car disappeared entirely under
the water and the engineer, fireman,
baggageman and conductor were all
instantly killed. The smoker, which
stopped on the brink Of the stream,
was telescoped by the chair car, and
many of the passengers killed out
right. Others were thrown into the
stream and were drowned. With the
exception OF the last Pullman the en-
tire train left the track and the cars
and coaches were piled up in one big
heap of debris or rolled into ditch.
The uninjured passengers made
their way 10 the brink of the stream
and rendered what aid they could,
working by the light of the few ian.
terms which could be found.
