TRAIN RUNAWAYS Special Dispatch to The Cail REDDING. Aug.17.—To a stranger cause than the “Kruttschuitt cvele” is attributed the frequent disas- ters on the Southern Pacific Rail- road in this section, resulting from runaway freight trains. The start- ling theory is that subterranean disturbances, jarring the earth's surface, start the cars on their wild runs down the grades. b, Those who glve credence to this theory advance these puzzling views: First—That heretofore there have been no similar disasters. Second—That the traln men are just as careful as ever, and have been more so since the first train started on its wild runaway trip. Third—That the air and hand brakes are sound and strong as ever. Fourth—That the cars start on their mad flight long after the brakes have been set and the trains have come to a standstill. From these premises they argue that a sudden upheaval of the earth, due to a subterranean dis- turbance, must be the cause that puts the trains in motion. They point to the fact especially that in the latest occurrence of this kind several days ago the eleven cars composing the train had been switched on to the main line in the Sisson yard and had been.standing there for some time, when suddenly the cars began a swift run down the grade to Mott. Fortunately Brakeman Brown, who was the only one of the crew on the cars, being then in the caboose, did not lose his presence of mind, and set all the hand brakes, succeeding in stopping the train after a half-mile run, This had been the fourth run- away In four weeks. @r+++++ 44444444444+ + D R R S AR asa st S 2 ‘+¢ 400000 ed ship in port on the | umittee of the celebra- | between Montgomery and | the Merchants’ | YOSEMITE STACE ROBBER HAY G N CITY PRISOH Bold Footpads Hold Up and| Rob Man in Western Addition. | —_—— | Bernard Hess Says Masked ThuES!
