[The State, 27th]
The wreck on the Southern rail
way which happened at an early hour
yesterday morning was quite a seri
on _ one, yet it w nas clearedl away .n
a remairkably short time considering
the ditlio,ulti.js und(er whichl the men
had to work. In T1ho State ye4ster
day morning, thbough it was well
nigh impossible on acconut of the
late hour to get details, practically
all of the essent iail poinIts orf the story
were presented.
The statement as t.o the manner in
which the wreck occurred was exact
as is shown by the oflicial statement
given b'elow. Just beyon.d the point
where the passenger train went into
the freight there is a cierve around a
hillside. This accounts for the
severity of t he crash, for th e eng ineer

As soon as th-l.raiu ltaiE to i -litlt

in the wrecknge the passengers pro

looking at that. time as if the flames
were coming in that direction. The

when Superintendent Welles, Yatrd
master Blainton and thle wvrecking
crew, carrying the wrecking train
apparat,us, arrived onl the scenje andi
the work of removing the wreckage
was begun.
Shortly afterwards a repreosent a
tive of TIhe State reached the scene.
From the upper portion of the city
the glare in the sky could be seen.
The flames were roaring at 4:30 anid
for a distance of 150 feet or more
red hot coals were piled upoin the
roadbed. It was so hot that thi mn
couldl hardly get near enongh t.o
work. Whbile the flames were fought
with saned and ralkes the wrecking
ropes were attached to truck after
truck and the big enigine would pull
the remains of the cars, the iron
work, out of t.he fire and from the
roadb)ed. It was a sight that re
minded one very much of the final
scenes about Ibhe great Swansea hor
ror, conditions appearing much worse
than they really were.
The work continued without aibate
ment,. and to the surprise of many
the roadbed was not only clear, but
a new~ track had repilacced that burn d
by 9 o'clock atnd all mornirg t rains

ceof wrecking work. Superin
