THE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE LON DON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY. CROYDON, Friday.—This morning, at 11 o'clock, the magistrates assembled at the Town Hall, Croydon, for the purpose of continuing the investigation they com menced on Tuesday. Mr. E. R. Addarns was the chairman of the bench ; and the other magistrates pre sent were Captain Kemmiss; Mr. Byron, and Mr. Sutherland. The four prisoners sat in the middle of the court, there being no apprehension on the part of the autho rities that they would attempt to effect an escape. A slight change in the legal arrangements was made to day. Mr. Burgon appeared for Simpson, the driver, In stead of Mr. C. J. Rawlings, and Mr. Rawlings acted for Sladden, the stoker of the excursion train. Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, appeared on be half-of the South pastern Company. • Mr. Everest asked that the evidence which had already been taken should be'read. This was agreed to, and the evidence was gone through. Mr. Burgon requested that the prisoners might be pr )ceeded against separately, as their was no concert between them. If the magistrates did not think fit to adopt that course, perhaps they would allow the case of the two South-Eastern men to be severed from that of the two Brighton men. Mr. Rawlings made an application that the witnesses should remain in cou rt, as it was evident that the two companies were bringing up witnesses the one against the other. The Chairman said that, as this was an inquiry, and not a trial, he could not accede to the request made by Mr. Burgon. The suggestion made by Mr. Rawliags was, be thought, a very proper one. Mr. Everett opposed the application of Mr. Rawlings; and, after a long discussion, The Chairman said the bench would be glad if the witnesses would retire, but had no power to order them to do so. Mr. -Superintendent Hind wished to ask Mr. Brown, the superintendent of the Bricklayers' Arms Station, who was recalled, whether the train was divided at Ash ford, and if so, for what purpose, and by whose au thority ? Mr. Brown—lt was divided because the train was too heavy, and by his direction. He had instructions to do so if necessary. Mr. Everest asked Mr. Brown whether he had charge of the excursion train ? Witness —Not exactly. He was with it. Examined by Mr. Rawlings. - He certainly had the direction of the working of the train. He was not on the engine with the driver and stoker, but was in the break-van, next to the engine. He kept a good look out all the way. It was at all times necessary to pay particular attention to the Addisconibe-road signal, and as the excursion train on Monday passed it was all right. Witness gave. evidence in reference to the signals similar in character to that given before the coro ner yesterday. He added that the ordinary speed of an excursion train was about 35 miles an hour ; but he did not know of any regulation as to-the rate at which the train_ should pass a station. The driver slackened the speed of the train as he approached the station. The train was 45 minutes behind its time when it left Ashford. The last half of the excursion train, with 24 carriages, left Ashford at 40.30. Directly the driver saw the signal-man at the station hold up his hands, which is a signal of danger, he reduced his speed, and the brakes were pat on as bard as they could. He distinctly saw Sladden put on the brake and do 11 he could to stop the train. The engine was reversed immedi ately. The line was on a descent towards Croydon. Witness proceeded to describe the practice of plat ing red board on the back of a train when a special train was to approach, and was examined at great length on other points, which are already before the public. Mr. Wm. Parker, the London and Brighton Company's station master at East Croydon, described the signals along the line. A driver was not allowed to pass a signal under any circumstances. Witness was at din ner when the accident happened, and he did not know whether or not the signal was up. He believed that a message came from Stoat's Neat to Croydon, announc ing that the excursion train was approaching ; but the telegraph clerk did not communicate the fact to him, as he had no instructions to do so. By the Chairman—There was a board on the first part of the excursion train, indicating that there was another train coming, but he did not make any inquiry about it. He thought four trains passed between the first and second parts of the excursion train. There was no board on either of those four indicating that anything else was to follow. The first half of the train passed about eight minutes past twelve. Nu notice had been given to him of the time it would pass, but he was looking out for it. He did not know at what time the accident occurred, because he was not on the station. He left the station at eight or ten minutes before one, his dinner hour being immediately after he had done with the Dover up trains. Inspector Lund wished to ask Mr. Parker whether immediately after the accident he went to one of the prisoners and made any remark. If so, what was it, and what was the reply. Witness said he went to Simpson, the South-Eastern driver, and asked him how he came to run by the signals. He said he must tell the truth between God and man— that he had run by two of them. He expressly used the word signals. Immediately afterwards witness's atten tion wa4 directed to a clergyman who hail been injured, and he went away. A. person named Smart was close by when the conversation between him and witness took place. He was sufficiently close to hear the conversa tion which passed. Other persons were near at the time, but he did not know their names. The chairman considered that it was the station. master's duty to wait for the extra train, when be received notice that it was coming. He was informed that an extra or special train was coming up, and yet be did not take any notice of it. If he had at tended to the notice the accident would not have hap pened. George Smart, an engine-fitter at Biightop, said that on the day in question he was sitting at dinner close upon or near the switchman's box, at the station signal, on the north side of the Croydon station. There was a ballast engine standing on the main line, taking in water. The two station signals were both reversed, when he saw a train coming down the cutting, and hearl the signalman sing out to the driver of the ballast engine to 1113ve on, which he did at once. Shortly afterwards the accident took place several yards from the water crane. Mr. Parker, the station-master, then came to him, and asked him who was the driver of the South-Eastern train. Witness pointed him out, and Mr. Parker asked him how h e h a d ma d e suc h a mistake as to run past the signals. Simpson, the prisoner, replied that he should speak the truth before God and man, and that he had run past the two se ma ph ore s i gna l s. Superintendent Lund—At the time the excursion tra - n struck the ballast-train, "what rate "was it going at? Witness—From 20 to 20 miles an hour. Thomas Steadman, switchman, at the East Croydon station, said, he was stationed there, on the north side, at the time of the accident. The Dover train passed about 12.50, and soon afterwards the driver of the ballast engine, which was down at the lower end of the siding, whistled to know if he might come out . to water. Witness looked to see if the signals were ' all on to " Danger," and finding they were, he gave him permission to come out. That was about fiv e minutes before one o'clock, and he came out. Whihi , be was standing there witness heard another train coming up, but could not tell what it was. He looked and taw it between the foot-bridge and the brick-bridge, and he called to the driver to get out of the way, say. ins, '• Get on ; there's a train coming. and I'm afraid she won't stop." The ballast-train had moved on from 40 to 50 yards when the collision took place. James Chinnear, signalman on the southside of the E (st Croydon Station, sand th it when the train came up it was going at an unusual speed, and the semaphore signals being both reversed, he ran out of his box and hell up his hands. The train was going about 40 miles an hour when opposite the distsnee signal, and about 35 when it passed him. His semaphore was worked according to that on the north side, and it indicated danger some time before the excursion train came in lie had stopped trains corning in at the rate of 40 miles an hour with the south semaphore signal, but Lad received no orders to do so. The noise of an ap proaching train depended very much, fir the distance -at which it was heard, upon the state ef the wind. Mr. John Haines, tithe surveyor at Folkestone, pas senger by t h e second part of the excursion train with a hisith wife, s a id t h at, on the train passin g St e tee.; Nest, at four and a-half m i nutes to lo'clock ? he became alarmed at expressions to the same effect in the speed, and hearing . the carriaLre, he took g o i u e n t x his watch and timed the rate at which they were the fiat mile was done 5 " llusa th I minuteg the station one a n d the next in one minute . a in nd t t-nextin• a little . a minute ; the fourth he did not see.

After leaving Tunbrid ge the speed twice. First, it was- two miles in fi l ve n minutes ; and the second time, two miles in four minutes.. Applications were then made by their respective agents to hold the prisoners to bail ; and that made on behalf of the driver and fireman of the ballast engine W as g ranted on the ground that the e viden ce showed they h a d received pe rmission t o water their engine on je up-line. They were accordingly admitted to bail, them selves in 1001- each, and their sureties in similar amounts. On the part of the driver and fireman of the excursion train the application was , refused. It being now half - pas t 5 o'clock, the inquiry was ad journed till Tuesday next, at o'clock. —FATAL n M. TUB BOYNE VIADUCT. ccidentally killed o about 15 years of age, was a no viaduct. It ap.

The Race.—When called to the post tor. O'Toule l,r,,ke away and run nearly a mile before he was stopped. After some delay the lowering of the advance flag showed the work was begun in earnest, and the moat lively in terest was excited. Dr. O'Toole went away with a strong lead, Tros and Grand Inquisitor side by side, being the nearest pair-- the others following at somewhat straggling intervals, Little Barry being about eighth or ninth. The Doctor went along at a merry pace until they arrived at the gravel-road beyond the turn into the straight, when Grand Inquisitor took the command, followed by Tros, Amalgamation, Little Harry, Aquila, Hermit, Dr. O'Toole, and Ethelwolf, pretty nearly in the order named. At the distance Tros and Hermit dropped off; in fact, from that point, the race was between Grand Inquisitor and Amalgamation. The latter made a most resolute effort to achieve the victory, but was defeated very cleverly by half a length. Bad third. Ethelwolf was fourth, Dr. O'Toole fifth, and Aquila sixth. The others scattered at wide intervals. Heapy was nearly last. At starting, Dr. O'Toole ran across Kingston, who turned sharply round in consequence, got his fore legs over the ropes, and was left at the post. Value of the stakes, 1,065 soya.
