STAFFORD SPRINGS FREIGHT
 WRECK BLOCKS c. V. RoAf

The Central Vermont railroad was badly tied up Monday morning at Staf- ford Springs when six cars of a freight train, No. 4os. south bound for New London, were thrown from the rails and went across the tracks. Three of the cars were coal cars and the others box cars. They left the rails near the Park street crossing. Rails and ties were torn up for distance of 100 yards. The sec ond car from the locomotive was de- railed and buckled five others that were thrown sideways across the iron. It is said that the tracks spread and thus threw off the cars. Passenger trains were forced to transfer the few passeng- CTS they carried around the wreck. It will be a day or two before the damage can be repaired
