Publishers' Press.J Connersville, Ind., Dec. 29. Eastbound freight train No. 93 and westbound freight train No. 92, on the C. II. & D. railway met in a head-on collision at Lyons Station, six miles east of Jhis today and while no train men were killed, the wreck is a costly one to the company, as three engines were badly damaged and several freight cars were smashed. The east-bound train (double-header) had orders to take the siding for No. 92. The train had stopped for the switch, when No. 92 came along and crashed into the waiting train. The crew of No. 93 saw the danger in time to jump but the men of the other train were not so fortunate. Fireman Dale, of Hrownsville, had his leg bruised and was injured about the head and face. Engineer Cahill was slightly bruised, and fireman Madigan had his left arm hurt. No. 92 had but two cars attached to the engine, otherwise the loss would have been greater. Engineer Cahill of No. 92, said he understood his orders but he did not realize he was so near his switch, nnd he was helping his fireman when the crash came. The "double-header" was in charge of engineers Young and Roberts, and' conductor VanScyoc, while conductor Lightsinger had charge of the west-bound train. The track was blocked for several hours, and the mail trains were routed over the PJg Four railway. Wrecking crews were ordered out from Connersville and Hamilton, O.
