Mexican Killed
Adolfo Resindez, Mexican, was killed in the north yards of
the Santa Fe Sunday afternoon by being run over by a freight
train. The exact manner in which the Mexican was killed is not
known. The train crew claims he was stealing a ride and fell off
the car when a brakeman approached, and was ground to pieces.
Others say he was sitting in the shade of one of the cars and
was caught when a string of cars was pushed against it. The
funeral was held Monday.
