R. & N. and well known In La Grande, is one of the six who were injured In yesterday's after-wreck accidents. The report issued by the Observer yesterday, was correct as . far as ' it referred to the actual number hurt in the wreck at Arlington! but yesterday afternoon two others were badly injured, among them Mr. Ladd. A Portland paper relates: - I Six men injured,.' one probably fa- tally, and two others ." seriously, la I the net result of the wrecking of a j westbound freight on the 0. ft. 4 N. msn nine , about a mile and half east; of Arlington, at 8:55 o'clock last night O. ' A: Sproule, of The : Dalles, head 5 brakeman of the ill fated train is the most seriously In jured, having sustained a depressed fracture of the skull and brain con cussion. He has little chance of re covery. X. - j ' : "" J : v I Two tramps, Steve and George Koz- acchke, who were stealing a ride be tween , cars, and on the last lap ' of their long Jump "across" the continent are In grave condition. They have a fighting chance for life..'; Otto Hinkle, me nreman, naa a miraculous escape when the train was derailed. He sus' tajned several 1 severe ', lacerations about the legs and feet, but will re cover. . : ,',-. - These four men were injured in the wreck itself, while Assistant Superln tendent -'William R. Ladd and Theo. Metca, a section hand, were painfully hurt while clearing up the debris They: were struck by a twisted rail, which flew back and hurled them 20 feet away. Neither one, however, is seriously injured. The six men were brought to Portland by special train this morning, an dwere taken at once to St. Vincent's Hospital for treat ment.'' )y-'"-''-';': '''..-.'' Rains Loosen Bocks. , . The wreck was caused indirectly by the heavy rains which have prevailed in Eastern Oregon for several days past. - me iresnets naa loosened a quantity of rock, from the face of a perpendicular cliff, and a huge boul der weighing; several tons was nre clpitated onto tle track, Just a few minutes before the arrival of the ex tra freight. The train, consisting: of Beven cars of merchandise and nine empties, was speeding along at a rap- Id pace when it reached the slight curve where the rock slide occurred. The engineer, J. G. Lebor, did not see the obstruction In time to apply brakes, and the pilot drove full force Into the pile of rock. The; engine topped the mass, clearing it, but the tender followed by the 16 cars Jump ed the track and rolled down the em bankment to the brink of the river, which runs but a few feet from the track. The tender was. the only car to topple Into the stream. , ; The speed of the train was such that 400 feet of track was ripped out of the roadbed before the flying wreckage cume to a stop, and debris was scattered for several rods about the scene. " : The wreck was entirely unavoidable as the watchman had passed the snot only a short time before and found the track clear.' The accident ronM not have happened at a more for tunate time, : for none . of the eight passengers which were laid out Jy the wreck was due at the spot for several hours. Had . the rockslide occurred 1 at J almost any 1 other hour of the night it Is almost Inevitable that some one of the numerous pas sengers, Nos. 4, 10, 12, 6, 9, j H, or would have . met with the fate of the extra freight-'-.-',";'.; ;.
