A bad wreck was narrowly averted
yesterday afternoon, about 1:30
o'clock, when a northbound Southera
Pacific freight hit an open derail
switch here, throwing the engine off
the track. The train was only travel
ing about eight miles an hour when
it hit the switch, or otherwise the
engine would have crashed into a
residence nearby. Cause of the open
switch can not be learned, and the
engineer alleges that the block sig
nal did not work. The block was sup
posed to have been closed at that
time to allow a W. V. S. train to go
over the trestle near 12th street, and
if the derail switch had not function
ed, the S. P. train would have been
upon the treste when the block was
closed.
The track was cleared about an
hour later by a wrecking crew called ,
from Portland.
