A .Railroad Slaughter.
A frightful accident occurred on the
Southern Pacific at an early hour last Satur
day morning. . The regular Southern Pacific
express had reached a point four miles from
Tehachapi, at an early hour. The train con
sisted of seven cars, four sleeping ceaches,
twe baggage cars and the mail and express
cars, and was in charge of Conductor Reed,
an old and experienced employe. The usual
time was made to Keene, aad at a station a
few miles below the help engine was attach
ed to assist in pnlliug the train up Tehacha
pi summit. The grade is several iniLaj long
and has an average rise of 116 feet to the
mile; Arrived at the pummit, the engines
were detached from the train to allow the
helping engine to sidetrack and return. Im
mediately the train began to move back on
the terrible grade, and, gradually increasing
in speed, soon got beyond control of the
brakemen and the other train men, and went
flying down the grade at lightning speed.
The runaway caused the greatest terror
among the passengers, who knew notpwhat
the end would be. On and on the train
sped, until a terrible velocity was attained.
When the distance of four mi1e3 had bc-eo
made, the two sleepers, baecr; i il and
express cars jumped the hL s.d .Vtcre

In 1S70 he commenced practice in

with Messrs. Underwood, Thompson &
Fagan respectively. He was elected
prosecuting attorney of this district in
1872, and re-elected to the same office
in 1874. lie was elected judge of
Lane county in 1880. He was prostrat

of December. He leaves a wife and
two daughters, aged respectively twelve
and nine years. Judge Fitch was a
man of great natural talent, and was
. held in high esteem by different memb
ers ef the bar threugheut the- gtate.
The above dispatch will be received by
the many friends of Charlie in Douglas
county with sincere regret. Judge
Fitch lived with us for so .many years,
and after he left us to make his residence
in Eugene City, was so often with ns
that Douglas county claimed him as
her own and was preud of him. We

the bereaved wife and family.
