A Railway Smash -On Monday nigiht

e
two an& a half miles East of Seaforth,
the front engine left the rails a d
turned. crosswise on the track. Bo
engines were ?disabled and the bagga a
car was badly smashed but the talo
passenger coaches aemained on tale
track andedelde from the shock .none f
the passengers were injured. Mr. RO._8
of Stratford the engineer on the filet
engine, was badly scalded by esca
ing steam and his fireman was als
hurt. Sleighs were immediately sen
down from :town and the 'injured mei
and the pasSengers were taken to th
Commercial Hotel, where they were al
comfortably provided for and the In-
jured men received medical attention.
On Fruesd,a,y when the wreckage a,par-
ates was on its .way to clear the
track, the engine left the track abouti
half a mile West of Dublin, so that 1
traffic was completely euspended on
Tuesday and until Wednesday night.
The mishaps were caused by ice and
the depth of frozen snow on the track,
This is the worst accident that hae
occured on this line for many years.
The night was intensely cold and stor-
my and the -passengers' had -a some-
what unpleasant ride from the wrecked
train to town, but all were thankful
that they escaped so fortunately. ;
-Since the above was in type we
have had an opportunity of viewing
the wreck. a.nd that the engineer and
fireman of the front engine were taken
out of the cab alive Is nothing short
of ',a `miracle. The _front engine jumped
the track on one eide and its tender
or the other. The second engine in
passing the ditched one turned it
completely 'vound and left it lying on
