Monday evening a switchman named W. L. Logan in the employ of the Santa
Fe railroad at Arkansas City, was killed while on duty as one of a switching
crew; he had just uncoupled two cars and was standing on the brake beams
of a freight car and had just given the engineer the signal to stop when
his hold on the car loosened and he fell under the moving wheels and was
fearfully crushed. He lived only about half an hour after being hurt. |
