Two Killed, One Injured When Burl-
tinston Fast freight Leaves
The Rails Near Here.

About S o'clock Tuesday morning
an extra freight, No. 2160 was
wrecked a quartet of a mile west of
the city, or between the fair grounds
and the city lake.
The train was made up of one
car load of wheat and about a
dozen empty box cars.
The culbert was too small to
allow the enormous rain fall to pass
through and the water was backed
up south Of the track, flowing over
in places. This naturally softened
the road bed and when the train
went to pass over. the track spread
and the cars were thrown down the
embarkment
The engineer. AL Mcdonald was
instantly killed. The fireman Rex
Wickizer. and conductor. barley
Dean, jumped into the water and
escaped They were badly cut and
bruised. The brakeman, H. E. Nc
Kiddy was caught under the engine
and for Is hours lay face down
under the wreck. Everything that
could possibly be done to relieve
his suffering was done Citizens as
well as the railroad men, worked
heroically, part Of the time in mud
and water above their waists. Two
wreckers and a pile driver was here
but the ground was so soft that the
engine could not be lifted.
After five o'clock in the evening
1t was decided his leg must be
taken of.
DR.. Turner administered the
anaesthetic and Drs Pipkin, Guiford
and SouthArR. took the injusesi
member off just above the knee
He was placed on a cot and this
put in car and taken at once to
the New Monroe hotel but he died
before he was put to bed. The
body was taken to Wilson's under
taking room and prepared for burial
He was taken to Brookfield on No.
55 His wife had been called and
arrived during the afternoon.
Harold Eugene McKiddy was
27 years of age He had been
msrried less than a year.
Engineer Mcdonald was about
4S years of age His body was
taken to 8rookfeld Tuesday He
left a wife aud several children.
Messrs Wickizer and Dean were
both from BroOktield. They we're
experienced train men. This was
Mr. McKiddyS third trip. He had
formerly been employed in the
shops at BrooktieId The wreck is
being rapidly cleared away and the
track has been in use since about
midnight Tuesday
1t is estimated that the wreck
will cost the Burlington about
$4,000
No. Is was late that morning
and passed over the track only
abou. an hour before the wreck. 1t
is said that the freight side tracked
at Hunnewe!l to let the passenger
pass, No. 16 carried 13 coaches
that morning.
DR., Guilford was called to the
wreck Wednesday morning to dress
the hand of one of the repair men
which had been crushed. He was
