London Military Observers Comment On U. S. Objective In Bombing Raids.

8 Killed in: Wreck of ll. S. Express Train

KITPRELL. N. 0., June 14 —(AP) -Eiglit persons were killed and eight or more were injured here today when a freight train ran into the observation car of the south- bound Silver Meteor, crack passen- ger train of the Seaboard Airline Railway. The passenger train was stopped at the time.

About five hours after the wreck, which occurred at 12:58 a. m. E.D. T., the body 0f H. M. 'I‘ei're!l, 56, of Raleigh, superintendent of the Vir- ginia. division of the Seaboard Rall- ivay. was found in the railway divis- ion yard at Raleigh. about 30 miles from the scene of the wreck, which was in Terreilﬂs division.

Detective Lieutenant Hubert Nor- ton at Raicigh said he died of a bullet wound in his mouth and that a pistol was found near the body.

Horton said it was not immedi- aicly determined whether he had been slain or had shot himself.

'J. C. Wroton, general manager of the Seaboard Airline. said lit. Nor- folk. Va.. that the New York-to- Ficrida through passenger train had stopped at the Kittrcll Station in northern North Carolina "apparent- ly on account of brakes stickinz on the train." The freight ploughed into its rear.

Wroton said he had no informa- tion to show connection between the cdlision and ‘Ferrell's death.

All those killed were passengers in the observation car of the Silver Meteor. They included three wom- en. The fireman and brakeman of the freight were injured.
