|. c. FREIGHT IN
HEAD ON COLLISION
Engineer Shuttleworth Of Evans
vile Knocked Unconscious.

The overlooking of orders by
the trainmen on No. 355, Illinois
Central freight train. soutbbound
is said to haye been the cause of
the headon collision between No.
-S55. double header freight, and
extra GA northbound freight,
at 4:30 o'clock Sunday morning
at Crayn6 KY. between Marion
and Princeton, KY.
Engineer J. H. Shuttleworth.

painfully bruised about the head
face and body and his left knee
was spraihed. The other engin-
eer, Joht Powers. 116 West
franklin ttreet, Evansville. and
the two fremen escaped injury
when they leaped from their
engines to the ground.
Engineer Thomas Jones of
extra 624 and his fireman, both
of Princeton. Kv., were unin-
jured. When Shut tie W worth h
jumped his head struck the
ground with such force that he
was unconscious until he reached
Henderson while being taken to
his home in Evansville. His in
juries were ascertained to be
only of a painful nature after
physicians had made an examina-
ton.
Both trains were running at a
lively rate of speed, but the en-
gineers saw the approaching
headlights in time to reduce
their speed before the collision
occurred cn the long curve. The
damage done to the engines is
estimated at $500. The cars
were damaged very little.
The double header was COM
posed of about twenty cars of
merchandise to Kentucky and
Tennessee points, while the extra
freight had mixed freight for
Evansville. Traffic was suspend
ed only a few hours.
An investigation is being made
of the accident by l. C. officials
to fix the blame for the collision.

The minister dived. and. bring
ing up Denton. stuck out for
shore with him.
STRUGGLE IN WATER
Young Denton. who was very
strong and frenzied with fear.
threw his arms about the rescuer
and together they went down.
Four or FIVE times did the Rev.
Mr.. Logan fight himself free and
bring the boy again to the sur
face, but at last. finding his
strength fast waning, he struck
Denton again and again in the
face, forcing him to break his
holp, and he then caught him in
such a position that he could not
interfere with his swimming,
and with the almost unconscious
lad he swan TO safety. For this
act the hero commission awards

Since last Monday morning, when it left
Brunswick, it has Travelled S95 miles. The
preceding week from Athens to Bruins

the period since then the Atlantic Coast
bLine has carried 1t 535 miles more.
The gates of the Union station here
were thrown open at $50 o'clock tonight

rangements having been made by enter
prising Savannahians to the end that
their people might look over the wan
dering exposition The live stock car was
placed under ar, arc light where its
valuable passengers were shown to good
advantage.
