A Wreck on a Western Railroad.
The west-bound train oq thb St Louis and
San Francisco Railroad which ie ? 8t. Louis
Thurediy night at 8:15 w; : w.crked at a
point three mile3 west of Bullivan, Mo.,
which place is sixty-eight mil west of St.
Louis. Not a pr-senger esoaped unhurt,
and forty live are known to have been eer
iously injured, though no deaths yet are
reported. The train was running at
high rate of speed when suddenly, without
warning, the track gave way, and the locc
motive, baggage car and five coaches went
over the embankment. The train men and
those only slightly injured at once set to
work to prevent the additional horror of]
tire, in which they succeeded, mi 1 then
turned their attention to thword unfor?
tunate injured, and in a very short time
forty-five passengers, all badly hurt, had
been released from the debris. A tempor?
ary hospital was improvised at Sullivan,
and the most seriously iojured were taken
there, while others were conveyed to St.
Louis on the relief train, which was hurried
to the scene of the disaster. Ic was 11:25 J
p. m. when the accident occurred. The
train was traveling at a high rate of speed,
and most of the passengers bad already
gone to Bleep, while the few remaining
awake were about to do so. There is a
ourve in the road about three miles west of j
Sullivan, and when the this point was reaoh- \
ed a sudden jolt and jar was felt all over the
train. Everybody felt it, and the people in
the rear cars could bear the forward coaches
rattling and rumbling over the ties and the
crushing noise of cars being demolished. A
creek is crossed by toe road at that point
and there is a steep embankment thirty feet
high. Most of the passengers thought the
train was going through a bridge, and a feel
ing of horror chilled their blood. Ia an in
etant all the coaohes except the two sleeping
cars had been thrown from the rails. Peo?
ple were thrown about in the cars in all di?
rections and some of them were thrown from
the coaches and down the embankment.
One man was thrown right out of a window
on the opposite side of the coach from which
be was sitting and sent tolling down the
embankment to the edge of the creek. His
feet were in the water. Another passenger
on the same coach was tossed from the rear
end of the car to the forward end, and, in
fact, men, women and children were thrown
about promiscuously. The train proper was
made up of a mailing and express car, bag?
gage car, a smoker, a ladies' car, a reclining
chair car and two Pullman sleepers. Back
of these Bieepers were hitched five empty
coaches of the San Antonio and
Aranzaj Pass road, which had been
picked up at some way station. The
front track of the first sleeper jumped the
track, but the rest of the car remained on
and the rear sleeper and empty coaches be?
hind it never left the track. Fortunately,
there were no fires in any of the oars, and
the jolt extinguished the lights immediate?
ly. Otherwise a conflagration would have
been oaused, and there is no telling how
many lives might have been lost. As it j
was, most of the forward cars were smashed
into smithereens. The explanation given
of it by the trainmen to the passengers was
that tne spikes and fish-plates had been re?
moved from the rail at the curve, thus leav?
ing the rail loose on the ties. The forward
portion of the locomotive passed the place
all right, but the tender jumped the track
and was thrown part of the way down an
embankment. Who removed the spikeB
and plates is not known, but the supposi?
tion is the work was done by train robbers ]
who wanted to hold up the train. Still no
robbers put in an appearance, and if the ac?
cident was caused by them, they must have |
either weakened in their purpose or have
thrown the wrong train- The road officials
claim it is a clear case of train-wrecking.
On the train was a large body of physicians
returning from Springfield, where the State
Medical Convention is being held, and they
alao rendered valuable assistance in caring
for the injured.
