The wreck was the deliberate

3 probably fatally.
In accomplishing the wreck of the
train, which was the Coast Line
Limited, a devilish ingenuity had
been exercised. At a point on a
trestle over the Arroyo Seco the fish-
two
rails on the southbound track had
been removed, and in the aperture
whence the bolts were taken strands
of heavy wire were fastened at [J
end of each rail. From the appear-
ance of the track after the wreck it
was evident that some person hidden
on a hillside close to the trestle had
pulled the wire as the train ap-
proached and spread the rails out-
ward toward the edge of the trestle.
The train, three hours late, was
traveling at a rate of between 30
and 40 miles an hour. The engine

For fully 10 minutes the flames
shot out before the furnace for a
great distance, and when finally the
gas was turned off only a few bones
of the five men were found.
The four injured men were caught
by the first flash and severely burn-

they fell to the ground writhing in
agony.
The uninjured foreigner says that
Williard's head was blown off by the
force of the explosion.
Willlard and West are said to be
two of the most prominent furnace
men in the country. They were ex-

reason it is believed the accident was
