Transit derailment and a day of scattered incidents
A Philadelphia observation car rear track on the Pennsylvania line derailed west of eastern Pennsylvania with no injuries. Across the region reports include murders, drownings, suicides, arson cases, wage disputes, and court actions. Notable items involve arrests for obscene cards, a governor commuting a death sentence, cave-ins at coal mines, and weather-driven flood risks along the Susquehanna.
