WRECKERS TURN OPEN THE SWITEH California Express Is Derailed Near the Salem Depot. Fireman Fish Loses His Life and Engineer White Is Injured. Second Crime of its Kind Within Forty-eight Hours Causes Con- sternation in Railroad Circles. Special Dispatch to The Call. PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 7.—For the sec- ond time within forty-eight hours train- wreckers have sent an Oregon -~ traln crashing into the ditch. The California Express on the Southern Paclfic, which left San Francisco yesterday morning and was due in this city to-night, was wrecked 500 feet south of the depot at| Salem at 5 o’clock this morning. Fire- man Silas L. Fish of Portland was killed and Engineer W. H. White seriously in- Jured. That the disaster was the work of wreckers the company employes are con- vinced. An examination of the track shows that a switch was left half open and the lock taken away. The engine ran upon the switch, while'the tender stayed on the main line. ‘This wreck, following so closely upon that of yesterday, when obstructions upon the ralls sent eastbound passenger train No. 2 on the Oregon Rallway and Navi- gatlon Company line into the ditch near The Dalles, has caused consternation in raflway circles. The object of the wreck- | ers is hard to fathom, as it is apparent that the motive is not robbery. That they are actuated by a desire for revenge llkewise seems improbable, as they have not confined their operations to a single road. In yesterday's wreck Engineer Maur&ge Cavanaugh was killed and Fire- man Frank Chase injured. ‘When the California express left the rails near Salem this morning Engineer White was caught under the wreckage and_held there an hour before being res- cued, but his injuries are not considered fatal. Expect the fireman and engineer, no one on the train was hurt, notwith- standing the fact that the engine and the mall, express and baggage cars all went into the.ditch. At the scene of the wreck there is a trestle about fifteen feet high over Mill Creek. The engine plunged into the creek, turning over on its side, and the mail car piled on toY of it. The express and bag- gage cars left the track on the opposite side from the engine and mall car. The day ceach was derailed, but remained up- right. The Pullman sleeper and the pri- vate car of Superintendent Fields re- mained on the track. The train was runnin, an hour at the time. The track was torn up for more than 100 feet, blocking traffic for. . several hours. The Albany local train, due in Salem at 6:30 o’'clock, was turned back to bring the overland pas- sengers and malils to Portland. ALONG THE COAST SPOKANE, Dec.
