Columbus. o., Sept. 12.-COgnizance

REAR END COLLISION
ON ERIE RAILROAD
Fireman Jumps and Sprains

Breaks Fail To Work--WrecIS Set Fire
60 by the Engine-Engineer Stays
with His Engine.

Failure of the breaks to work pro-
perly caused a wreck on the Cincinnati
division of the Erie railroad last ev-
ening about six o'clock near Wood
street. A through east bound freight
was standing on the track when a
east bound local freight unable to
stop crashed into the rear end of
the freight, completely demolishing
the caboose and breaking up several
other cars. The track was blocked
for several hours.
Luckily. no one was injured SER
iously. The fireman of the local
jumped just before the trains came
together and sustained sprainked
ankle. The engineer Of the local re.
mained at his post and escaped with
out injury.
The car directly behind the tender
of the local was filled with live stock
but not one of the calves and hogs
were injured.
The wreckage caught ON fire soon
after the collision ana the fire DEPART
ment was called. The flames were
soon extngulshed.
When the two trains came together
the crash could be heard for quite n
distance and attracted large crowd
TO the scene.
