THE LATE FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE WEST CHOI
DON AND MITCHAM RAlLWAY.—Yesterday Mr. William
Carter, the coroner for But Surrey, resumed, at the Plough,
Beddington, the adjourned inquest on the body of John
Binghsm, the unfortunate engine driver who lost his life at
the accident which occurred on the 24th of last month, on
the newly formed West Croydon and Mitcham Railway.
The Inquest was adjourned from the 26th, to allow time
for the recovery of the other parties who were also seriously
injured. George Waller (s fireman), John Little (a guard),
Police Inspector Fraser, Cuthbert Oliver (foreman of the
platelayers), Mr. George Berkeley (civil engineer), and
Colonel Yolland, one of the Government Railway Inspectors,
severally gave evidence, but nothing posikive well elicited as
to the reties cause of the accident. It appured, from
several of the tritium's, that some parts of the line had
settled after the opening, and had been nutted. f', .r about
a week before the accident the weather had been very wet,
and such weatt er might hey. had some effect on the ballast.
Colonel Yolland gave it as his opinion that the
accident was caused mainly by the speed the engine was
travelling. The engine oscillating from side to side had
found • weak point" on the rails, and tore up the metal.
He did not consider any person culpable, but until the
earthwork of the line was folly consolidated, he thought
the speed ought not to exceed 20 miles en hour. The
*nosey having summed up, the jury returned the following
verdict That the deceased met his death by accident,
but we (the jury) recommend that the maximum speed,
until the line becomes consolidated, should not be greater
than 20 Sinn en hour, agreeably to the suggestions of
, Lint. Col. Tolland, the government inspeetor."
SIGNIFICANT BEQUEST.—It is stated in the Law
Review for the present month that Mr. Joy, a " victim of
Chan ," has bequeathed 3001. to the Yodel foe the
"aAyaMlOtot the kw."
