   The detention of the down Passenger train on the Macon & Western railroad yesterday was caused by the breaking of a car wheel on the up-freight Monday night, near Bear Creek station. Some four or five cars were smashed up, and the wreck obstructed the road for a few hours; fortunately no one was injured so far as we could learn. The expected train arrived about 9 o'clock last night.
