ENGINE VIOLATES ROAD RULE
Number 6431 Misses Trip Owing to
Stop Made at Saloon in
Cleveland.

Cleveland.-Engine 6431 did not
take the Big Four passenger train to
st. Louis because it stopped off at p
S. Berry's saloon on West Eleventh

patronize saloons on duty, so 643l,
having transgressed the rules and lost
out on its run, just stayed in the sa-
loon. No. 6431 couldn't come out any
way without the three-story brick
building falling in Finally the engine
was yanked out by another locomotive
and the saloon building fell in heap
of wreckage

that here was happening which was
likely to stand unique for hundreds OF
years. SO the little life car, no longer
new and shapely, but dented and buff

heavy loads of human lives, was re-
