ACCIDENTS The accident in the New York Cen tral railroad tunnel, last Wednesday, in which 15 persons were killed and twice that number injured, is the more re markable because of the number pre cautions taken to prevent it.

Yet in spite of all these efforts the second train dashed into the other, causing death anil injury, and what are described as the most harrowing scenes at any rail road wreck of recent years. The offici als of the company place the blame upon the engineer of the second train who, with liis fireman, has been arrest ed: Word came to Butler yesterday of Prof. Sam Hamilton of Allegheny coun ty being run over by a train, and hav ing both legs cut off Alfred Jenkins of Middlesex twp. had his nose cut by falling on a corn stalk, last week.
