ENGINEER KILLED AT VICTORVILLE

SANTE FE FREIGHT TRAIN IS WRECKED BY ROCK FALL WITH SERIOUS RESULTS

    A Sante Fe freight train, west bound was wrecked at Victorville last 
night and Engineer DOTY killed.  The track was badly blocked, number two 
due in Vegas at 8:30 this morning not reaching here until 3 p.m. The 
accident was caused by rocks and earth falling on the track in a similar 
manner to that which caused the death of Engineer Ed. W. LONG. We are 
informed that the entire crew of the train with the exception of the 
engineer, escaped injury.
