FATAL WRECK AT BRUSH COLO

by Fast Freight No 77
THREE PASSENGERS ARE INSTANTLY KILLED
And Over Twenty Injured AH Passengers A Most Unfortunate Exception
to a Very Busy Week Devoid of Accidents
Tho following account of the collision betweeH passenger train 13 and fast
freight 77 Monday night at Brush Colorado is taken from tho Donvor Post of
Tuesday The accident is perhap3 the worst that has ever occurred on the
McCook division and is most keenly regretted being the only exception to the
most busy two weeks in Burlington passenger history on this division weeks
otherwise devoid of accident or incident

Lee Brock of Nashville Tenn a pas

due to tho carelessness of the engineer
in charge of the freight train
The injured arrived in Denver at ten
oclock this morning and wore taken to
St Lukes hospital Several of the in
jured were members of the G A K
The dead will be brought to the city
this afternoon
Train No 13 was standing on themain
track taking water and the freight was
endeavoring to make up time There is
below the depot
a curve a quarter of a mile
pot and as the passenger trains have no
schedule to stop at this point the crew
of the freight train was unaware of the
other trains presence having no orders
to that effect The coal chutes hid the
passenger train so that the engineer on
the freight could not see it until it was
too late to prevent the accident
In the collision there were five freight
cars one heavy Pullman and one tourist
Pullman splintered into kindling wood
Many of the injured were in the tourist
Pullman A relief train was immediate
ly dispatched from Denver and arrived
