The extra freight. receiving orders to
clear, passed the depot about a block
shortly before the whistle of the pas
senger was heard in the curve, about
two or three blocks beyond the sta
ton. The freight was backing to-
ward what is known as the east
switch. when No. left the curve and
came swiftly along the straight track.
A member of the freight crew had
been sent ahead to signal the passen
ger. but it was too late. The engineer
and fireman of the freight saw that
wreck was inevitable and jumped. En-
gineer Shute remained at his post, it
is believed, endeavoring in vain to
avert the impending collision. So did
the fireman of No. 2.
When both engines met the bag
gage car of the passenger was smashed
in pieces. The smoker left the track,
but was not overturned. No other
cars were badly damaged.
