Fortunately the speed of the oncoming train was reduced, but the crews of at least two of the three engines escaped only by jumping and they were more or less cut and bruised by their fall. The complete body and contents of a. box car loaded with barrel Astolves and ends were reduced to charcoal, while a. caboose and four flat cars were completely destroyed by the fire that followed the collision.

The first warning the en- gineer and fireman in charge of 686. or the train crew in the cabooBe ahead, had of the approaching train was a distress whistle and a cry to them to jump. Only a few hundred yards away was the doubleheaded Lindsay train of nearly 1,100 tons rapidly bearing down upon them. The engineers 'were warned by a brakeman at the curve of the ob- struction ahead. When brakes failed to stop this train, warning whistles were sounded and everybody jumped. SIX MILES AN HOUR.
