WRECK AT MAGLEY A Wreck Early This Morning Causes Inconvenience in Handling Traffic. THREE CARS ARE OFF Causing Delay of Several Hours—None of the Crew Were Injured. Considerable delay in traffic was anused by a wreck which occurred on the Erie railroad at 4 o'clock this morning as an extra train was passing through Magley eight miles west of this city. A heavily loaded extra train was spinning along and had just reached the switch which lies east of the town a short distance, when suddenly several cars in the middle of the train lurched heavily to one side and were derailed. Three car loads of anthracite coal were derailed and considerable track was torn up. Section men from all the nearby towns were at once called and the wreck crew from Huntington was also called into use. Soon afterward the crews were at work on the spot. Trains 7 and 8 were forced to transfer over the G. R. & I. to Fort Wayne, where they went l west over the Wabash to Huntington. This caused a delay in traffic all along this division. The yards at this place ; were filled with trains awaiting the i : clearing of the track and all available men are working in order to open up I traffic as soon as possible. None of . the train crew were Injured or killed . in the wreck and the exact cause of it is unknown, although the switch , may have been the cause. Had the train been running at any great rate of speed in all probabilities the en--1 tire train would have been derailed and been the cause of severe injuries ' to .the crew, which was riding in the cab. About noon today the order came over the wire that the track was ’ clear and trains might be sent over the block. A siow order is being main ’ tained until permanent repair can bp ' made. Mr. and Mrs. U. Deininger were I among those who went to Fort Wayne > to attend the G. A. R.' and W. R. 0. entertainment.
