a nilraculous escape from death ln
a head-on collislon between a south
bound frelght train and a northbound
milk train at Salem, N. Y., on tho

tlio frelght ran over a switch and
met the incoming train on a curve
near the depot. The cow catchers
of both engines were smashed and
the front of the flrst car of the milk
train was demolished. Conductor
Lalor was on tlio front platform of
this car and was so burled in wreck
age that it took an hour to get hlm
