Veaterday'a Appatiini; Accident,
The appnling railway accident which
occurred at .". :U yesterday afternoon a
mile east of town, coming at the moment
when a dispatch from Portland prema
turely, as it proved, announced the
death of the president, was a terrible
shock to this community. Two well
known and respected residents of the
city, both married men and heads of
families, had been hurled into eternity
without a moment's warning, and two
other men had been painfully and se
verely Bcalded and bruiBed.
There was a general stampede to the
scene of the wreck, but before the arri
val of anyone from the city the dead
men had been rescued from the wreck,
placed in a cab and brought to the un
dertaking rooms of Crandall ft P.urget.
Engineer Reese was crushed and broken
beyond recognition. Engineer llaslam
had the back of his head crushed !n, but
was not badly disfigured. He had been
Fcalded, however, in the face and hands
till the skin had peeled from these ex- j
posed parte and hong in rags. After
viewing the wreck it is hardly possible
for one to believe that the men ever
knew what happened them. Death in
each ca6e must have been instantaneous.
The engineers' pides of both cabs had
been crashed into by the materials of
the wteek, so that it was not possible for
any living being within to escape with
hif life.
The cause o? the accident ll not known.
Tiie two witnesses examined at the in
quest over the remains of Engineer Has
lam swore they did not know (because,
but the verdict of the jiry shows that
that body was strongly of opinion that
the wreck was OwHied by sand on tiie
track, which the company should have
taken the precaution to have had shov
eled off. No sand shovelers were seen
till after the accident, and a considera
ble pile of sand lying on the south side
of the track, and apparently freshly
shoveled out from under the wreck, jus
tifies the opinion of the jury.

THE VERDICT OP THE JURY.
The? Attrlbnte the Wi.rU and Cnnnr
liirnt I . , or I. ire M and on
the Track.
A jury, presided over by Coroner
Butts, met last night at the undertaking
rooms ol Crandall A Burget to inquire
into the circumstances connected with
the deatli of Locomotive Engineers
Thoma- Haslam and El Kecs yesterday
afternoon on t tit railroad hack about n
mile east of. town. O.ily two witnesses
were examined and these were both em
ployes of the O. R. A N. Co, and had
both been in the wreck. The several
members of the jury, however, h'1 vis
ited the sc?ne of the wreck, and from
what they had Witnessed with their own
eyes bed apparently made up their
minds that the wreck by which two men
were harried into ternity and two others
severely it j ired was CSUSed by sand on
the tr.ick.
Fireman A. B. Comitaek was called
firet. When be felt the engine Itave the
track he jumped for his life and happily
escaped the wreck. He then began to
hunt for Engineer Rees and found Fire
man Spear, w ho had got clear after be
ing scorched and burned about the head
and arms. After the engine cooled
down a little Rees was taken OOt. En
gineer llaslam was found in his cab,
but he could not be approached for the
heat till the engine had cooled down
sufficiently, when, with additional help
Oomstock succeeded in getting him out.
Both engineers were dead when tirst
Been. OomatOCk did not know what
caused the wreck. He did not notice
sand on the track nor fee! ii under the
engine.
When the accident happened the train
was running at about nineteen miles an
hour. This is a little faster than ordi
nary because there was a little hill
ahead of the train, fie was 10 much in
terested in getting the men out that he
did not look for sand on the track. The
wind was blowing and the sand piling
up to some extent. The train was an
extra gravel train on its way to Grants.
The same train had passed the point
where it was wrecked at 1 :45 p. m., or
about an hour and a half before. There
was no sand on the track then.
Conductor P. A. Clancy testified that
when the accident happened he was in
the cab with Engineer Rees. He jumped
and escaped without injury. He did
not know the cause of the accident. The
train was making between eighteen and
twenty miles an honr. They were not
running beyond tiie limit of speed set
by the company. The wind was b ow
ing as it ordinarily does on the Colum
bia. It is customary fjr the company
to have men shoveling sand on windy
days. Witness saw no shovelers till
after the accident. He was sitting on
the fireman's seat and looking ahead
but saw DO more sand on the track than
usual. There was sand on the rails. A
train can run through quite a lot o
sand when the track is straight, ami it
was etraight at this point. Witness did
not think it was the pand.that caused
the accident but did not know what it
was. Not more than two inches of sand
was on the track at that place. Engi
neer Haslam was dead when witness
first saw bim.
The above was all the testimony
offered, and the jury brought In the
verdict printed below. The verdict, it
will be noticed, covers only the case of
Engineer Haslam. Coroner Butts con
eluded it was not necessary to bold an
iuquest on the remains of Engineer
Rees, as the circumstances connected
with the death of both men were similar.

We, the jury Impaneled bv W II
Buns, coroner of Wasco county, OregOl ,
to Inquire into the cause .f I he ileat h ol
tiie body now before ai, after viewing
