Section Foreman Makes Timely
Discovery Of Displaced Rail
on Rock Island Near
Minco
LUCKY THAT TRAIN
WAS RUNNING LATE
Spikes Removed and Entire Rail
Set Out Eight Inches No
Motive for Deed
Known

The mere fact that the south bound
Rock Island FREELY was running
late this morning and the timely work
Of the MInco section crew prevented
what might have been one OF the worst
wrecks in the history Of the division,
Wien the crew proceeding northward
from Mnco, discovered a section Of
track from which one rail had been
taken.
The attempted derailment was one
Of the most hideous schemes ever de-
yised FOR the destruction Of a train

results might have been. but for the
accidental finding Of the work before
it was too late. All the spikes had
been removed from one entire rail
and the rail- set over. parallel with the
track being placed about eight inches
out Of line, the distance amply suffic-
lent to send the entire train to de
struction.
It seems that the lucky star was
towering over the passengers on the
"Firefly1 inasmuch as the train was
more than an hour late and that the
section crew proceeded north instead
Of south from Minco this morning. Had
the train been on time She would have
arrived at the point OF the planned
disaster before the section crew, and
had the section crew decided to work
south Of Mlneo today, the trap into
which the train was running would
have never heen discovered until too
late In either case, the loss Of life
and property which would have result.
