Wreck Occurs on the
National Line.

The Mexico North Western and the
Mexico National railroads are again
running on their regular schedules, as
all the washouts have been repaired
The Mexico National train for the
north. which was due. to arrive in
Juarez at 8 o'clock Wednesday night
was delayed only two hours. The train
going south Thursday morning on the
National did not leave Juarez until II
o'clock. but this delay was not caused
by a washout. Nine freight cars were
derailed at Lucero Wednesday night
and the work Of putting them back on
the track was not completed until
nearly noon Thursday There was no
one injured in the accident.
There has been no mail or express
from Mexico City TO reach Juarez in
over two days as the two big washouts
at Ceballos. & small town near Tor
reons has not been entirely repaired
and 1t has been impossible for the
trains to get through. Instead, the
passengers have been transferred from
one train to another over the damaged
spots in the road and so 1T has not
impeded the passenger traffic.
