Western Pacific bound from Salt
Lake City 10 San francisco rd
due in Elko at 7:45 tonight was
ditched at noon today one half mile
east Of Garfield and about Ii miles
west of Salt Lake City.
The train is heavy one hauling
several Pullman cars, diner etc,
and was just tearing down the line
at ninety miles an hour when the
giant locomotive suddenly leaped
from the rails and plunged along
the tracks for some distance
without upsetting. The engineer
applied the emergency brakes and
stopped his train before a smash up
took place.
The baggage car, day coach,
two tourists. slecpers left the rails
but remained right side up. The
many passengers on the train were
shaken up but reports received
at ElkO say t1at moo ne was injur-
ed. When the cars left the rails
and began to bump along the rails
n dozen women passengers became
hysterical and screamed with all
their might fearing the end had
come, but members of the train
crew quickly quicted them telling
the frightened women that the
wreck was. not serious and the
train would be again speeding on
its way in a few hours time. The
cause of the wreck is not yet known
according to advises received in FL
ko but may have been due to
spreading rails caused by excessive
heat the last two days.
A hurry call was sent to Salt
Lake City for a wrecking crew
which soon reached the scene. 1t
is likely the train will resume its
trip west late this afternoon.

innocent enjoyment and thought

buffoonery. Special legislature has
been proposed dealing with this
form of mobbing, but it should not
be necessary if the officer of the

the fact that a newly married cou-
pie are the victims does not give a
mob license to make a nuisance
of itself which would not be per-
