              FREIGHT JUMPS TRACK
              
              One Killed and One Fatally Injured
                on P. M. Near White Cloud
                
              Newaygo, Mich., June 28. - Running at the rate of forty
            miles an hour, down grade, a Pere Marquette freight train
            was wrecked at a curve between here and White Cloud at
            5 o'clock this morning. The train was a double-header. The
            first engine kept the rails, but the second and all the
            cars behind it were piled along the track for nearly half
            a mile.
              ALEXANDER ROACH, of White Cloud, head brakeman, and
            CHARLES BOLES, of Grand Rapids, engineer, were pinioned
            under the locomotive and could not be extricated for
            over an hour. ROACH was dead when found and BOLES is
            fatally injured.
