SALEM TUNNEL FLOOD TIES UP SIX TRAINS Special Dispatch to the Globe SALEM, Oct 13 Five passenger trains an 4 one freight train were held up this afternoon by a flood at the Boston A Maine tunnel In the center of the town which caused timbers and boards to drift about In such a manner that the trains were In danger of being derailed. Conditions resumed normal aspect late this afternoon when the waters receded and service was restored. The first train held up was Boston bound from Amesbury, scheduled to arrive In this city at 12:32.

The train was delayed In the tunnel for some time owing to the high water and when it did go through and started to come out of the southerly end of the tunnel large timber, 12 feet long and eight inches thick, lying across the tracks in the water, nearly derailed it. The fact that the train was going slowly prevented an accident. The train was stopped just a few feet out from the southerly end of the tunnel. Some of the passengers were a bit frightened by their prolonged stay in the darkness of the tunnel.
