RAILROAD EMPLOYEES
CANNOT BE GARNISHEED

Atlanta, Sept 1S.--Just as expected
by lawyers, men in the employment OF
the railroads are not subject to gar
nishment, owing to the fact that all
money derived from railroad opera
ton is the property of the govern
ment, at least for the period of fed
eral control. The Government itself
has issued official notice to this effect
1t is presumed that the rule applies
only to employees of roads under Gov
eminent control, and not to the short
line roads which the Government did
not take over.

LIBERTY DRIVES SWELL TOTAL BY
 EIGHT THOUSAND
Special Holiday Is Observed In Nenana By Boosting Liberty
 Loan Subscriptions.

In response to the urgent appeal of President Wilson to devote q day to special effort in behalf of the Third Liberty Loan, volunteer solicitors were out in ofrce in Ne mana yesterday, and when the days sales were summed up it was found that bonds aggregating sS,100 had been disposed of to patriotic pur- chasers.
 Mrs. Carl Schmidt, local member of the Woman's committee of Liberty Loan workers, headed the list with sales aggregating S3,050. Bob Toussaint came second, with $1750; the disbursing office of the Alaskan Engineering commission reported $2350; Mrs. NJ. S. Love, s1250; sales out the line, $500; Nenana club, $450; and R. R. Douse, $4OO.
 The total sales of Third Liberty Loan bonds recorded in Nenana up this afternoon, represent the sum of S23,000, which is regarded as a very creditable showing, considering the population of the Nenana dis trict and the newness of the town, and the fact that the residents pre- viously have invested heavily in Liberty Loan bonds and war savings stamps and made liberal contribu- tions to the Red Cross and other patriotic funds
 The showing is such that efforts are being made by MT. Cramer to have an honor flag awarded to Ne mana. The treasury department as not determined upon quota i"r the town, but the request has been made to put Nenana on the list of substantial contributors, with a star or more in recognition of the good work done here.

ENGINE LEAVES
 TRACK ON LINE
 SOUTH OF TOWN
Glaciered Tracks Cause Derailment of Big Locomotive; Accident
 Not Serious.

1 What might have resulted in d very serious accident and a very severe setback to construction work on the Government railroad was narrowly averted by the prompt ac- tion of Engineer Crowley, of loco- motive No. 270, which became badly derailed when on the way out to the end of track this morning.
 The accident occurred when the train was about three miles out of 1 town. In this neighborhood, for a short distance, a not very heavy mantle of snow which had evidently been drifted by the recent wind storms, lay covering the tracks to a depth of few inches; and it had been partially thawed and frozen again to almost a consistency of ice. No danger was apprehended and the train was proceeding at moderate speed, when without any trucks left the track and ere the emergency brakes, which were promptly applied, had the desired effect, the entire locomotive was off the track, and the forward drive wheel had just commenced to climb the rail on the farther side Fore man Lee and some of his men who happened to be on the train, with the assistance of such of the other passengers who were able to obtain the necessary tools to work with, soon had the encumbering snow cleared all around the locomotive, when it was discovered that a bare Is inches lay between her and a very serious accident Had she cov- cred this distance it is certain that she would have turned turtle and i been rendered useless for all prac- tical purposes for an indefinite length of time. The Alaskan En- gineering commission are not, at the present time, prepared to cope suc- cessfully with an accident of such serious proportions, as they have no wrecking equipment.
 Beyond delay of perhaps day, no other serious effects are liable to be caused by the accident. The 1 locomotive is not injured in any way.
 Acting Division Engineer Ward and Superintendent of Construction Packer were among the passengers on the train, and word of the acci- I dent with request for a locomotive and help was promptly sent to town and was as promptly responded to. The "Five-Spot" was soon got ready and sent out with a crew of men i to assist in rerailing the 270. On ar rival of the Five-Spot at the scene of the accident she hooked onto the train and started townwards, switching the cars to the side-crack on arrival at the Commission yard, and return i ing again to the rescue of the 270.
 Shortly after the "Five-Spot" got under way from the scene of the accident with the box, car, caboose and couple of flat cars, she was suddenly brought to a standstill by the derailment of the flat car bring ing up the rear of the train. Within twenty minutes of this derailment,
 the flat car was lon again" and the train proceeded, arriving safely in town.
 It is confidently expected that the
 270 will be on the track again this
 evening and the train will proceed to the end of track as usual.
