TELLS OF WRECK According to the .slaleincnt of Ual eigh people who were at Hamlet last night, the wreck on the Seaboard was expected before it happened, and there was a mimical of fearful suspense and excitement in the telegraph ollice. In deed, orders were scut out for a wi'-vk-ing train before it was known that tins fatality had occurred. Mr. Baxter Durham and others were waiting at Ilaiulet to return Id llalcigh when it was noised around that there was danger ahead. The freight, had left Hamlet, bound south, and the pas senger. No. 44, had left Kockiiigliain lor Hamlet, a distance of six miles, with no station iiitervenin;r. There arc many sharp curves, anil railroad men realized that nothing on earth could prevent a disaste r. While, the crowd around Hie station was waiting the llaginan lroin the freight came running back with the news, and hundreds of people started on loot lor Hie scene, rue trains met on the line between Hamlet and Inula. "When I got to the wreck," said Mr Durham, "there wits a sight the like of which 1 had ilevcr seen before. As thel two locomotives came together the bag gage car on the passenger reared up, telescoping the second-class couch, which was literally crushed into splint ers, and it appeared then that every person in the car had been killed. So far as I could ascertain no passengers: in other cars were killed, livery person In tho second-class coach, however, wus either killed or maimed. "There was prompt work in removing the dead and dying. Most of the vic tims wero negroes, und uiinmg thciii were many women." Different reports were circulated us to he cause of the wreck and-the respon sibility. ' About the only thing certain is that the freight was allowed to puss Hamlet and the passenger was sent from Rockingham, almost at the samo time, when there was no way bv which, j they could safely pass on tlic six mllea of track.
