PHIL PETERS’ ESCAPE.
.Almost as well known in
(• i-jiml Junction as he is any
where in the state Phil Peters,
tlie Globe F.xpress messenger
who had a miraculous esca|H*
from death in the express car on
ill I'alcd No. o. has a great host
of friends here who are rejoic
ing over his escape. He got off
with a few minor bruises by’
jumping from tbe car door as
1 fie two trains crushed together.
Peters was standing in the car
door as the freight approached and
took in the situation at a glance. As
he saw the other train approaching
he made a leap far out from the
train and was lucky enough to alight
on a pile of cinders, which broke the
impact of his fall.
This is only one of many wrecks
that Peters lias experienced, having
figured in almost every wreck of any
consequence that lias happened on
tne Rio Grande for the last twenty
years, having been employed as ex
press messenger Tor that lengih of
time.
He had si marvelous escape from
death in tin* terrible Adobe disaster,
where over 30 people met death. On
that occasion Peters, though suffer
ing three broken ribs and being bad
ly bruised, did his share of the rescue
work until a relief train was sent
from Pueblo, lie also escaped from
the Eden wreck, where so many peo
ple lost their lives by drowning, and
was again instrumental in helping
save the lives of what few survivors
escaped from that wreck.
Peters lias got so used to escaping
from these disasters that lie says lie
knows positively that when oik hap
pens he will get out alive, or he
would have stopped working on the
road long ago. His wife says that
when the news of a wreck on her
husband's train comes to their home
at 3335 West Monerieff place. Den
ver. she does not worry about his
lining killed, hut as to the extent of
his injuries anil how long he is going
to lie laid up with those injuries. She
says 4 that they have been figuring on
going out into the country on a. ranch
to live, and it remains to lie seen
whether Peters loses his nerve after
going through this last ordeal.
THEY WERE COMING HERE
ON THE ILL-FATED TRAIN
A dispatch from Omaha yesterday
lias t his to say:
Fourteen Nebraskans were in the
wreck at Dotsero, and their relatives
are making anxious inquiries as to
those who lost their lives.
Dr. Arville Oleson of Axtell, Neb.,
reported killed, has been a promi
nent physician in his home town for
seven years, being si graduate of
Rush .Medical college. Chicago. With
his wife, and 2-year-old baby he was
on his way to Spokane. Wash., where
he was preparing to locate. Consid
erable anxiety is felt for his wife
and child, who, it is feared, are
among the unidentified dead.
W. C. Kettle and his daughter.
May Kettle, who are listed among
the dead, lived at Ashton. Nel>. I'n- ,
til recently Kettle lias been 51 pros
perous farmer near Ashton, lie had
just purchased a fruit farm in Colo
rado and with his rioH»er, two
daughters and iT-year-ohl son was
on route to their new home. Kettle,
Inis a son and many other relatives
living in the vicinity of Ashton.
John Williams of Clark. Neb., re
ported killed, was accompanied by
his wife and four children. He was
on his way to Friiitn. Colo., where
he had accepted a position on a gov
ernment irrigation ditch. Friends
are waiting for news from ills wife.
W. (). Vinack, who was injured, is
la traveling salesman for an Omaha
hardware jobbing house, but his
home is in Denver
-
NOTES OF THE WRECK
It is said 1 lint the most harrowing
conditions of the wreck were the lack
of light for the reasons there being
but two trainmen’s lanterns avail
able; .the wreckage of a long freight
train obstructing the arrival >f the
rescuers, doctors mu'. i. • !.<■ nar
rowin'-- if t;.“ i.ubunkinent beside
tin- v. leckage, where a misstep meant
probable death in the river.
Thus sufferings of the injured
were prolonged and this, with ex
posure to cold, probably means death
for some who otherwise might have •
hurvived.
The place where the wreck occur
red is on a rather sharp curve and
the engineers of neither trains could
see but a short distance aln*ad This ,
was one of the reasons why tin* en
gineers were not able to check their I
trains uiitil"almost on each other.

A Northwestern, in charge of con
struction, it was reported that prob
ably no successor to Wei by would be
{•pointed, but that the assistant gen
eral manager would look after the
general superintendent’s work.
The first day of his new duty was
;i strenuous one for Mr. Martin, as
lie was put in charge of receiving all
Ihe details and information from the
I disastrous wreck near Dotsero. and
, of sending out all instructions from
ibis end of the line.
W. S. Martin is one of the most
1 popular officials with the D. A R. G.
