TRAIN CREWS ESCAPE
WITHOUT INJURIES
Engineers Unable To Stop
Freight After Receiving
Signal OF Flagman

Failure to observe the signal of q
flagman, or being unable to stop soon
enough after noticing them, caused a
wreck on the B. & o. lines in the
northern edge of this city at 1850
o'clock Saturday afternoon, long
freight train drawn by two engines
ploughing into the rear of another
freight train near the Standard Oil
Co.'S plant.
The cabOose of the train struck was
driven clear through carload of
baled hay just in front of it and lit
orally crushed to splinters. Another
boxcar was badly smashed up and
derailed No other damage was done
however, and no member of either
train crew was injured.
was probably caused by the inability
Of the engineers of the incoming train
to bring their engines to a stop after
seeing the signals Of the tlagman that
had been sent back along the track to
guard against just what occurred
They say that the fagman had not
been placed far enough from the rear
of his train to make this possible. The
wreck tied up traffic for several hours
while the tracks were being cleared
