 It was definitely determined that the dera1lment of the train was caused by a broken rail Two pieces of the rail- one 14 and the other Is inches long, which were picked up at the point where the train left the tracks, were found to contain flaw. In the ball" as railroad men call the portion of the rail on which the wheels rest, a black substance resembling carbon was dis cernible The defect could be seen only after the rail had been fractured
 Only three of the six cars that rolled over the embankment were raised to- day. The others were so firmly driven into the gravel that they resisted the efforts of two powerful wrecking der ricks to free them.
 Mrs. D. M. Strous of Boston, the only one of the injured remaining here was reported today to be in serious her injuries indicated that she had been hurt worse than at first SUD- posed.
 Two Westerly physicians who went to Boston late last night on the special train that carried the passengers of the wrecked train to their destination, reported on their return today that they attended the wounds of 3S per sons. Many of the injuries were of a minor character.
