Four Jews were slightly injured yesterday in a wreck of a train proceeding from Beisan to Haifa.
Heavy damages were caused and rail communication was discontinued until the road had been cleared.
It is believed that the derailment was the result of a plot against Rutenberg’s workers, the train being known as a Rutenberg special, because most of the passengers are usually workers employed by the Rutenberg electrification works.
