Kansas City Star, January 13. Intormation was received here this morning that at an early hour as the Missouri Pacific passenger train No. 5, was about one mile west of Dun- bar, Neb., a station about 1So miles from this city, a misplaced rail was struck and the entire train thrown from the track. It was not, howeyer, until the arrival of Conductor S. D. Wilson, of this city, who had charge ot the train, at 11 o’clock, that any complete details could be learned. He gave the following description of the wreck: “‘We were about a mile west of Dunbar, running at the rate of 35 giles an hour, when suddenly the entire train was pitched forward, running but a short distance when ali the coaches turned upon their sides. **It was some time before I could gain possession, so great was the shock. When I picked my way trom the coach a terrible scene met my eyes. The engine had been thrown a distance ot fifty teet from the track, but, strange to say, the daggage car was carried as many feet in tront of the engine. All the coaches had been thrown from their trucks and rested upon their sides with the exception of one. I im- mediately looked around to see who was seriously injured. [ tound that engineer DeWitt had been killed and his fireman, Walter S. Gates, of this city, seriously scalded. None of the passengers were killed outright, al- though from the cries of distress that Theard I knew that a them had been injured. at once sent to Dunbar and physic- ians brought to the scene. A relief «ar was furnished as,soon as_possi- ble and the suffering conveyed to ‘the town, where they were at once cared for. <lent there were fifty-two people on the train, tourteen of whom were occupants of the two sleepers. The names of none of the injured pas sengers could be learned, but it is not thought that any ot the injuries received will prove fatal. A young lady, at one time connected with the Kansas City Museum, was badly hurt and was taken to Atchison this morning.” Conductor Wilson says that the wreck 1s regarded as the work of the Knights of Labor. The rail had been taken out and shoved in about two inches, so that it would have ‘been impossible for a train to have Cleared the break. The tools that the men had worked ‘with were found near the track and <onsisted of a claw-bar and several smaller pieces. The section house aat the junction of the Burlington & Missouri and the Missour: Pacific, ‘but a short Jistance from where the accident occurred, was found to have ‘deen robbed and tracks of two men discovered in the snow. Conductor ‘Wilson says that several members of ‘the Knights ot Labor have tor some time past exhibited signs of am- mosity toward DeWitt tor some unknown cause, and for that reason they are credited with the work. Fireman Gates said that the first intimation he had of approaching ~danger was a cry trom DeWitt: “Jim, we are gone!” The tran then lett the track, and the contents - of the boiler were emptied on parts -of his. body, leaving him in the most ypaintul and helpless position.
