SHAMP MISSES THE
CLEVELAND WRECK
Changes Route Just in Time
Comes on Next Train and
Sees All the Wreckage
HAS SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS

c. l.. Shamp of Omaha. secretary
OF the International Union of Sta
tionary Firemen, is getting so that
he almost expects to see big wreck
whenever he goes on a long railway
Journey.
He has had no less than three mar
yelous escapes from death in such
wrecks.
His latest escape was on a trip to
New York, from which he has Just
returned. Had he not received word
while in New York to go to Detroit
instead of direct to Chicago. he
would have been in the Twentieth
Century Limited that was mixed up
ia the big wreck near Cleveland, O.,
last Wednesday morning.
As II was. he was on board the train
that followed. II was held up until 1920
a. m. by the wreck and he saw the whole
terrible sight
In 1904 Nh. Shsmp, on a trip east had
already bought his ticket for the Twen-
tieth Century Limited when clrcum-
stances arose which made II desirable
that he take another train, from which
he would not need to change in getting
to Scranton, Pa. So he changed his
ticket and took another train. The Twen-
tieth Century Limited that he would
| have taken was wrecked near Cleveland.
In Green River Wreck.
That same year Mr.. Shamp was in the
big Union Pacific wreck at Green River.
Wyo., and had miraculous escape The
services he rendered in rescue work on
that occasion brought him and three or
four others letters CT commendation from
the leading Union Pacific officials.
Mr.. Shamp went to New York this
time to attend an important conference
of the International Union of Stationary
Firemen. which took place March "a.
Incidentally, he attended the big prize
fight. and he says Willard seemed to
have everything his own way. HE
seemed almost to be afraid to hit Moran
with all his strength" he said.
