Blown From the Track
Omaha Neb Sept 28 While run
ning at the modest rate of twenty five
miles an hour a combination train on the
Burlington branch road between St
Francis Kansas and Orleans Nebraska
was blown from the track by a hurricane
Tuesday evening at 740 oclock near
Wheeler Kansas In spite of the fact
that there were a dozen passengers in
the single passenger car attached to the
train no one was seriously injured The
escape of the passengers was the result
of a series of fortunate circumstances
The east bound combination train
No 180 left St Francis at 740 p m
and approached the town of Wheeler ten
minutes later A high wind which had
been blowing stiffly now increased to a
hurricane Four freight cars lightly
loaded were lifted from the track and
hurled down tho embankment rolling
over and over several times The wind
seemed to strike tho car next to the
engine with the greatest force for the
coupling connecting it with the engine
was instantly broken and the engine
remained on the track Tho passenger
coach was dragged from tho track by
tho overturned freight cars but re
mained upright It might have shared
