CAUSED BY A SPREADING RAIL

ROCK Island & Pacific passenger train.
The train, which was a consolidation
of No. 10 from Chicago and No. Fl
from st. Louis, bound for Minneapolis,
Mimi, was being detoured over the
track of the Chicago Great Western
road. Running at about 80 miles an
hour In a cut north of Green Mountain,
the train struck a spread rail. The
pilot locomotive jumped the track and |
with terrific force was buried in an
embankment Of soft clay.
A second locomotive, lust behind the
first, rolled over, and the impact of the
sudden stop hurled all the rear cars
forward. A coach, smoker and a Pull
man car were smashed to splinters, al
most all the occupants being killed or
injured. The superstructure of the
Pullman was literally shaved off and
was damned like a ramrod through the
smoker and day coach.
