NEAR MARKET 81.

Partially Wrecked; No One
u .se Injured III

A rock Island freight engine was de-
rallied near Market street this morn
ing about II o'clock. The engine was
pulling train of about sixteen cars Of
freight, and going at comparatively
low rate Of speed, which accounts for
the small amount Of damage done.
As the train was nearing Market
street the engine left the track on the
puzzle switch, and blowing into the
ground 1t soon came to a stop. The
fireman and engineer wore uninjuTed.
The rear Of the engine and also the
tender were raised from the track un-
til they rested at an angle Of about
fifteen degrees. The entire train re-
ceived heavy jolt and the men In the
caboose were considerably shaken up,
but no one was injured Practically
the only damage done was to the en-
CINE and tender, both being badly
twisted.
The wrecking crew stationed In the
local yards Is working At the scene Of
the accident

McGoorty and Forkins SpIit-Why Is

Eddie McGoorty is the latest prize
fighter who is reported to have
broken with his manager. McGoorty
charged Matty Forkins made bad
