The derailment which occurred nt Dole yesterday afternoon about '! o'clock, was cleared away last nip-lit about 7:30 p. m., and traf Uc wan resumed shortly after that hour. The wreck was caused by a looao rail. Section workmen, it was stated by S. P. officials, had drawn the spikes from a rail in making repairs, and had neg lected to send out a flagman to warn approaching trains. An ex tra freight was sent out and came around the curve quite suddenly upon the looseued section of the track, with the result that the engine and six cars were de railed. -vTlie engine and three cars re mained upright, but three other earn wore turned over in the ditch and were badly damaged. About ten rail lengths or track was torn up. Tho Hoseburg wrecker was called, while addi tional workmen "were a-unlied to the scene by automobile. The tracks wore repaired an opened so that trains were able to go through before 8 o'clock. Trains number 11 and 12 were held up for six hours, while freight traffic was also delayed. Fortunately none of the train crew were injured, although sev eral had narrow escapes, partic ularly a brakeman who was rid ing the top of one of the cars, when It overturned, and saved himself only by jumping as the car toppled over.
