Show I Miraculous Preservation Wheeling Va 16A villainous attempt was made tonight on the Pacific Central and St Louis railway rail-way to wreck the passenger train at Glenns Run seven miles above this city A rail was tied across the track There is a stretch of track at this point level and straight and good time is always made The train was running at the rate of sixty miles an hour snd when the engine struck the obstruction ob-struction it jumped into the air but fortunately kept the rails The rear cars kept the rails and the train passed uninjured If the train had been thrown off the track it would have plunged into the Ohio river over an embankment as the track is very narrow at this point and great loss of life would have ensued |
