SMASHED INTO FOUNDRY Central Vermont Freight Wreck at McCrum-Howell Plant— Engine, Tender and Two Box Cars Piled Across the Tracks—Box Car Tore Hole in Foundry Wall—Engine Jumped Track at a Switch—Conductor Colyer Only Man Hurt. A 25-foot section of the foundry wall at the McCrum-Howell company plant was knocked down Wednesday night sbout 7.30 o'clock when a southbound freight on the Central Vermont rail- road was wrecked at that point, and the engine, tender and two boxcars piled in zigzag formation across the track, completely blocking the line. From no reason that was discern- able Wednesday night, the big engine, No. 1433, one of the large type used by the road for heavy freight trains, jumped the track at the switch for the foundry’'s spur track, bumped along the ties for about 150 feet and then toppled over towards the river and against a flatcar of pigiron that kept it from landing om its side on the ground. The tender was twisted cross- ways of the track with its front end held to the rear of the engine by the coupling, while its rear end was jam- med into the side of the boxcar follow- ing. The boxcar in turn mounted the stone embankment at this point and brought up against a telegraph pole and the wall of the McCrum-Howell foundry, in which it knocked a hole about feet wide, from ground to roof. The second boxcar In the train was twisted across the tracks the other way with its front end hanging almost over the river and only kept from go- ing overboard by landing on the empty flasks which are stored along the out- side of the tracks at this point. The flasks which the first freight car land- ed on also served partially to keep it from falling flat on its side. Both cars stand tipped over at about an angle of 45 degrees and are splintered and smashed and their trucks torn off. Neither Engineer Kleinfeller, who is familiarly known as ‘“Dutchy,” nor his fireman was hurt, but _Freight Conductor “Pop"” Colyer, one of the old men on the road, was in the caboose and was tossed against the side so hard when the train came to a sudden stop that his nose was broken: There were 18 cars in the train, but where the cars are piled up 150 feet south of the switch. On the engine all the wheels are in- tact, but the tender has both trucks torn off, and trucks are torne loose from the two box cars. Supt. Joseph D. Curtiss of the Me- Crum-Howell company had the roof of the foundry shored up where the hole was made in the wall where the freight car hit, about the central.point of the foundry, opposite A. J. Riley's floor end right alongside the foundry clock, which was stopped by the shock. Two windows of the foundry were knocked out. The_ wrecker was ordered up here from New London early this morning. The freight train in the accident was an extra freight. The 9 o'clock boat train, passenger, was sent down to New London by way of the Consolidat- ad tracks, on the east side of the and was piloted by Engineer New Haven road. river, y Connors 6f the COURTS OF COMMON PLEAS EXPENSIVE.
