It was connected with a Ilone caboose. It was under the care of Eogineer Cride and Conductor William Denick. For what reason it did not stop at Hixon is not knewn. It is possible that in the snow and darkness they ran through the little station, It is probable that there was a clear misunderstanding of orders or that wrong urders were given, Another more authentic ver- sion of the matter is secured by the Journal. It appears that orders were given to 1128 to pro- ceed with a clear track to Crooks- ton. When 415 was sent out of Crookston it was given orders to meet 1123 at Hixon. It does not appear that any of the trainmen are to blame in any wny what- ever. The crew of the big engme . laden escaped with far less in- jury than the crew of the west bound. The powerful machinery*® plowed up toe west bound train for a distance of one block and the engine itself is more intact than the battered and smashed debris, and that is all that is re- (maining of 415. When the two engines hit, the engine cab of 415 was wrenched bodily from its fastenings on the Jjboiler and hurled through the lur.f Through this occurrence, rfortunately, the engineer and conductor of the train came out e e e e We still have a splendid selection of high grade .
