FREIGHT train JUMPS TRACKS Believe Hi-Jackers May Have Caused Derailment To Get Whisky Indianapolis, Oct. 17 —(UP) —Possibility was seen by Government and local agents here today that Whisky Hijackers tampered with rails and deliberately sent 12 'cars of fast Pennsylvania west bound express No. 87 into a ditch six miles east of Indianapolis last night. A valuable shipment of Whisky, bound for St. Louis under government supervision, might readil/ have tempted racketeers to make the daring plan for confiscation, officers believed. Whatev »r was the motive behind the wreck, which undoubtedly was brought about purposely, and apparently by expert hands no attack on the train was made and only one person H J. Harper. Columbus. Ohio, fireman, was injured, and his injuries were slight. The train which had a cargo of exceptional value, including silks and other expensive merchandise, was likewise heavily guarded, witn fully a dozen armed men in the cars. The guards blocked the right of way immediately after the crash and no one appeared to dispute their domination of the situation. There was no positive information that robbery was the motive which prompted the perpetrator or prepetratots to disconnect one rail joint. Officers see in the expert manner in which the wreck was brought about, however, and its timing so that the valuable cargo would be the one to suffer, a plot of so-called “blg-tlme operators," whether these men were after the regular merchandise or the large wliisky shipment is not known, or at least not revealed o —■ JOHN PETERSON IN AUTO MISHAP (COXTIXVED FROM RAGE ONE) a cross-roads near the Beery church west of Decatur early this morning. The Ford car was completely demolished and Sltii-ack received an iujnry. to his back. The Ford turned completely over, pinning Shirack beneath it. The truck was not badly damaged. Smith and the truck driver were neither one injured in the collision. Two Cars Collide The Ed Boknecht and Earl Sudduth automobiles collided on Monroe street at about six o'clock Wednesday evening Mr. Boknecht was turning into the driveway of the Boknecht filing station and Mr. Sudduth was driving west en Monroe street when the two cars crashed. Botli ears were damaged, but none of the occupants of the cars was injured. — ~'~~ 1 ' 111 : Announcement —BY— H. 0. White Starting at once there will be a daily Hog market' at Berne, Ind.
