SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN THE LIVERPOOL
TUNNEL.-ELEVEN MEN INJURED.

Last niglst a very serious accident, in which& large
number of men narrowly escaped lasing their lives, occurred
in the Waterloo tunnel, which extends from Edge-hill to
Great Howardetreet. About 8 o'clock eleven platalayen, is
the employ of the London and NorthWeetem Railway, and
residing at Edge-bill, left the Edge-bill station to proceed to
the Waterloo station-yard to prepare metal for laying on the
line and effecting certain repairs. It wee their custom to work
at the Waterloo station-yard by night, becalm it was not
clear of traffic by day. When they had approached what is
termed " the beak," in that part of the tunnel near Byrom-
street, the truck upon which they were seated came into
collision with • waggon of goods that was standing there
by some means, and so great wri the fore* of the coccus-
' sirs that the men were knocked off the truck and precipitated
in all direction' upon theline. Theism injured of the samba
gave an alarm, and they were soon taken out of the tunnel—
which was quite dark when the aocideet occurred ; and con-
veyed to the Northern HospiteL It is stated that blame is
attached to eons party on account of there being no danger-
light at the rear of the waggon wort which
the truck came in contact. The following are the
names of the isjared men and the nature of their casualties :
Thomas Headley, aged *.i„ oonttimion of the spin* ; Thomas
Gibbon, 27, contagion of the side ; Charles Clare, 22, contu-
sion of the side ; George Bellow, 18, contusion of the hip ;
James Bellew, 44, scalp wounds ; Thomas Hall, 26, wounds
of nose sad face ; Henry Bidow, 28, wounds of forehead ;
James Hurst, 24, wounds of face ; Thorns, Hanley. Ai,
woends es forehead and contusion of thigh ; James Wor-
rett, 21, contusion of shoeldor ; Samuel Tresnlett, 21, con-
*mitre of thigh and wounds of forehead.
Perenl of the injuries received are pronounced to be of a
meet swims character, sad up to 12 o'isioek last night some
of the =a lay is a very precarious sisse.—Lirerpoot
