Final Conclusions of Wreck
As Presented By Investigators
The final conclusions on the cause
of the wreck as presented by the spe
cial investigators of the Interstate
Commerce Commission by its investi
gators are herewith printed, being the
third installment of the report as re
ceived through the courtesy of Sena
tor W, J, Harris, and which we have
printed in full, the same as we have
the majority and minority report of
the state’s investigators, as presented
by Governor Hardwick, Neither report
places the crime on particular men,
The Leader-Enterprise received this
report almost a week earlier than the
Atlanta papers and was glad to pre
sent the full report to its readers,
The evidence as well as an exami
nation of the material involved ir this
accident indicates that this derailment
was caused by an explosion
The marks and condition of the rail
point strongly to the theory that an
explosive was placed between the head
and base of the left rail which when
exploded by the passage of the left
forward engine truck wheel forced the
rail outward and upward creating the
outward bend and leaving the impres
sion of the chiller marks of the wheel
on the head of the ail, The explo
sive also worked downward shatteri“
the ties taking off 5 portion of the
base of the rail bending its ends down
ward, the center being directly over
a tie, It is believed that at the same
instant that the engine was raised by
explosive the left forward engine
truck whieel was driven from the axle
bending it slightly, and the foce of
the explosion together with the move
ment of the train threw the wheel for
ward with a rolling motion until it
came to rest at the top of the bank,}
The fact that comparatively little of
damage was done to the locomotivel
particularly on the under side is ex- |
plained on the theory that the left|
front wheel being nearest the explos- |
ive received the violence of the shocki
while the other parts of the locomo
tive being more distant received a
less severe blow but still sufficient
force to raise the engine from the rail,
At the time of the accident both
engine and train crew had only been
on uty one hour after having been
off duty 26 hours,
An examination was made of the
engine, its truck, axle and wheel, and
site of the derailment inspected by
Mr, James E. Howard, Engincer—
Physicist, whose report upon the
derailment next follows:
Report of Engineer-Physicist
The derailment of train extra No,
102 on the A, B, & A Ry, at Cascade
Crossing, Ga,, was clearly the result
of an explosion which occurred un
der the forward end of the engine on
the left hand side, The time of the
explosion with reference to the posi
tion of the engine was apparently
when the forward left hand wheel of
the pilot truck was over the explosive
The place occupied by the explosive
seemed to have been near or upon the
inner flange of the outer or high rail
of the track, the track curving to the
right at this place, and at a point near
ly or quite underneath the .overhiead
bridge of the highway crossing.
Certain parts of the engine, the
high rail, the ties and “the " roadbed
furnished conclusive evidenge of there
having been an explosion, while the
testimony of th: personnel of the
train together with that of residents
of the vicinity was confirmatory of
this fact, and still further the recovery
of certain unburnt explosive "material
from the debris, in the immediate" vic
inity of the derailment, furnished tan
gible evidence of the presence of an
explosive, o
Sufficient evidence was' presented
of a positive character to enable judg
ment to be formed upon the probable
order of events all of which took
place within a very brief interval of
time, measured by seconds or fractions
of a second,
The violence of the explosion oc
curred when the forward left wheel of
the engine truck was immediately ov-
FITZGERALD, BEN HILL COUNTY, GEORGIA, MONDAY, OCTOBLR 10, 1921
er the explosive, the gasses disengag
ed by the explosive were at their
greatest intensity of pressure at that
instant, The high rail was with the
exception of its flange, suddenly for
ced upward, increasing the intensity
of the pressure between the head of
the rail and the tread of the forward
wheel of the engine truck, The in
crease of pressure was so great that
chiller marks on the tread of the chil
led iron truck wheel were transferred
to the running surface of rail head,
The chilled iron wheels on the for
ward axle had been in service but a
short time and the chiller marks still
remained upon their treads,
The second axle of the engine truck
was equipped with steel wheels, thus
fixing responsigility for the chiller
marks, on the high rail, upon the chil
led iron wheel of the forward axle.,
Additional evidence of the violence
of the explosion at its initial stage,
~was presented by the high rail which
Idisplayed at the immediate vicinity
(of the chiller marks a short outward
kink, It is here in evidence that the
explosive was placed on or against
the inner side of the high rail,
Necessarily this sudden local spread
e of the track tended, by
reason of frictional resistance between
the head of the rail and the tread of
,the left truck wheel to disengage the
wheel from its axle, The normal
‘wheel pressure ofthe truck taken at
19,850 pounds per wheel was greatly
exceeded at the instant the chiller
marks were made on the head of the
rail, The formation of the outward
kink of the rail at this place would
tend to carry with it the truck wheel,
in this manner furnishing a longitud
inal component, with reference to the
axis of the axle, which would tend
to remove the wheel from it axle,
An additional component is found in
the gasses generated by the explosive
acting against the inner face of the
wheel,
High explosives in a confined space
develop pressures of many thousand
pounds per square inch; 40,000 pounds
per square inch not being an unusually
high pressure. The left wheel was
reported to have been pressed on its
axle with a force of 50 tons, Allowing
20 per cent increase in resistance
against forcing it off 120,000 pounds
would be required for its removal
Oniitting consideration of the infly.
ence of the kinking of the rail, but
taking into account the area of the
flat surface of the wheel, then it would
appear that a pressure of 200 pounds
per square inch on the inner face of
the whee!, would be acdequate to re
move it from its axle, In pressing
this wheel on and then off the axle
subsequent to the derailment much
lower pressures were required, This
would indicate that a force less than

“The big job is to build up dairy
marketing organizations, It is easy to
formuate co-operative marketing pans
and to enlist the support of the leaders
in the various communities; the diffi

It would seem that the formulating of
national policies in regard to the mar
keting of dairy products can be work
ed out in a national way along a few
definite lines, It will not be possible
to cover all o f{the dairy marketing
problems because the marketing of
raw or market milk is one that is gov
erned largely by local conditions 1t
should not be difficult to carry out a
definite line of marketing butter and
cheese and to carry out a national pol
icy of advertising, standardization and
grading of dairy products, If this is
done in an effective way, it should be
possible to take care of the unorgan
ized territory”
