A Springfield man was killed instantly last night when his car was struck by a train at a grade crossing in Grand Island, Neb.
Dead is Jess W. Palmer, 58, of 2051 Elizabeth, a former boilermaker of the Frisco Railroad's west shops here. Mr. Palmer had been employed as a boilermaker for the Union Pacific in Grand Island for the past seven years but had continued to maintain a home here.
