MOORESTOWN, N.J., August 12, — |
A railroad accident occured here this
morning, in which two engines crashed i
together, damaging both to a consider- |
able extent, breaking up one of the |
passenger coaches, and resulting in |
injuries to a number of the passengers,
pone of which, however, Were of a
fatal character.
The second section of the west-bound |
train from the seashore. Beach Haven
and Tuckerton, due at East Moores |
town at 9 o'clock, Was, under the |
schedule, obliged to go on the siding |
there, in order to allow the Long |
ranch express to Pass, Engineer
Enos Reed and his conductor, Elam A.
Gross, had only a few minutes before |
been referring tothe “meet” at Moores- |
town, and the conductor supposed, of
course, be would take the siding. But |
instead of doing 80, Engineer Reed |
palied the throttle and started for West |
Moorestown. The engine had hardly |
passed the Chester avenue road cross-
ig when Conductor Gross pulled |
sharply on the bell rope. |
Noticing that the |
slacken its speed, he again gave the en-
gineer the bell, at the same time pull-
ing on the cord that operates the air
brake. By this time the engineer was
doing his best to stop the train, which
had just stopped when the Long
Branch exprees came dashing around
the curve that obstructs the view al
that point. A collision was inevitable,
Eugineer Reed tried to start his train
back, but seeing that he had no time,

escaped unhurt.
Before they could turn around the
crash came, and both engines were
locked together, The forward car on

that the boilers were about to burst

“It has been sald, I know. But how

Joseph could hardly remain master of

The poor girl uttered a cry, and fell
on her knees pale and weeping, as she
recognized her benefactor, It was
surely he, with thal same sywpathizing
voice: and she had dared to tell him
that the Emperor was cruel and unjust!
Joseph broke the silence, for he pitied
her confusion, *‘Rise my child; 1 have
