The democratic presidential candidate and his party were severely snaken when an engine and four cars of lhe special xram» were ditched, but all escaped seri- ous injury. The most seriously injure was Charles A. Nichols, engineer, of Prescott, who had a lez broken in jump- ing from his cab when his engine toppled over. Spreading rails were assigned by ra road men as the cause of the wreck, which compelled the governor and his party to return here tonight and cancel his evening address Prescott. His future itinerary also was upset. The accideat occurred a half mile out of Peo a village on the Santa Fe rail- road. After delivering several Speeches here the train, consist ing of six cars and drawn by two heavy engines, needed for the upgrade to Prescott, left here at 4 About a half hour later, while fuaning at a speed estimated at between 55 and 40 miles an hour, the train jarred suddenly, as if in collision, and then ap- plication of the emergency brakes, bump- ing ver broken rails and tie§, and the careening of cars, told passengers the story. The four forward cars were ditched. the governor's private car at the rear and the adjoining compartment car of news- Paper men, except for its forward truck, remaining on the rails. A baggage coach jumped the track about fifteen feet and turned over on its side. Two passenger coaches and another compartment car behind also slipped ten feet from the track and partly toppled over. The first engine of the doable-header, Engineer F. C. Sotton of Prescott said, left the rails first and then jumped on again, but the second engine toppled over amid a.cloud of escaping steam. The tender of the forward engine also fell over, while the first passenger coach ran the length of the overturned baggage car and jammed its forward end into the trucks. All of the passcngers on all cars were thrown topsy turvy. Some suffersd bruises and cuts from flying glass. In the rush for escae, several women passengers in the coaches were put through broken windows. Governor Cox was in the dining room of his private car going over papers with Dr. Robert C. Goldsmith, his assistant on the league of nations question, when the crash occurred. “What's that?" he shouted, rising to his feet, only to be thrown heavily across the car against its wal.
