Elephant dies as train derails in Assam forest incident
The Graphic correspondent reports a wild elephant was killed when a train on the Assam Bengal Railway ran through the Nambor forest in Assam. The derailed engine and ensuing delays left much of the forest an unknown country, with remnants of old animals observed. The depicted elephant likely belonged to a herd crossing the tracks, unaware of a heavier intruder in the primitive jungle.
