On last Thursday morning our citizens were thrown in a fever of excitement by the report that a man bad been killed during the night previous, by the cars at Underwood's crossing, a short distance above town, where the corpse was dis. covered by Geo W. Morrison, one of the trackmen, in his early tour of inspection, which proved to be that of Lloyd W. Meyers, son of Aaron Meyers, of Julian. The facts, as they have been gleaned from the most reliable sources by fore. man P, J. McDonnell, are as follows : On Wednesday the unfortunate young man, with two others, came in from Retort where they were employed in the fire brick works, arriving at Vail about 6 o'clock p. m.; at this point he boarded an east bound freight, thinking he would get sooner, as his father was stricken with paralysis and was vot ex- pected to survive. When the train passed Julian it was running at full speed so that be could not or dared vot risk jump- ing off. Before coming to Uniouviile the train slowed ap for some purpose when he thought he could safely alight, but the speed was still too great for him, and when be took the fatal leap, his head struck the cattle goard at the afore. named place, and threw him close to the track. This is evidenced from the fact that his left band was nearly cot off by the cars ; no other part of his body hay. ing come in contact with the car wheels, it is believed that he havd fallen with his head on the iron cattle guard with such force as to cause his death, The county coroner, Dv.
