Injury.

Portland, Ore.-Eight persons were
killed outright and seventy others,
two Of whom were seriously and five
critically, injured when two electric
trains on the Southern Pacific rail-
road cOllided head-On at Bertha sta
ton, ten miles west of here, Sunday.
The accident was apparently due to
disregard for orders by the crew of
the incoming train, according to a
statement made by c. w. Martin, as
sistant superintendent of the South
ern Pacific.
The train is said to have had orders
to pass the outbound train at Bertha
station, but instead of stopping there,
it passed on through at high rate Of
speed.
Just as the train neared curve
beyond the station limits, which swings
around high bank, the outbound
train from Portland cane in sight two
or three hundred feet away. Despite
emergency brakes applied on both the
/ trains, they met head-on, with speed
practically unchecked.
The forward car of the fast-gOing
train bored into and the through the
vestibule of the forward car of the
| outbound train and plunged on
through into coach filled with men,
women and children. They were
caught there and pitifully crushed as
the trains crashed. Virtually every
person in this car not killed outright
was injured in some manner
