ATTEnPI AT TRAI3-X7EI" Two Crossties .Placed on the Eoutitra Track at Greensboro. v Greensboro. Jan. 21. A bold attempt was made to wreck the Florida special, No. . 29, at the north end of the yards in this city tonight. Some party, or parties, unknown, placed two large new cross ties directly across the track of the main line, which were dis covered by a colored fireman cf one of the industrial plants of tis city, who was going home aiUr finishing his day's work. It was evidently quite an exertion for Lira to lift the heavy ties, for he wis of small stature, but he got them off and came breathless with per spiration streaming down his face and his voice quivering with ex citement to the trainmaster's office and made a report of what he had found and done. Had this ob struction been allowed to remain on the track an hour longer the Florida, special would doubtless have run into it with a dreadful crash and many lives have been lost. It will be remembered that No. 65, a focal freight, was derailed at Revolution, about two miles north of the city, almost entirely destroy ing the entire train of equipment and contents except the engine, a few weeks ago, and it may be that some malicious person placed an obstruction on the track and caus ed this wreck, and that this same party was making another effort against the Southern Railway and the general public tonight It is understood that the police authorities are investigating this matter vigorously, and it may bs that the Southern will see fit to bring one of its special agents to this territory to investigate the matter.
