FATAL ACCIDENT AT VIE PORTLAND BREAK-
1/AM.-PORTLAND, MONDAY. A shocking accident
happened to-day at the works of the breakwater of the har-
bour of refuge now forming off here, by the giving way of
the timber viaduct supporting the railway. About 11
o'clock a train, consisting of a locomotive, tender, and four
I wagons, the latter filled with stone, was proceeding along
I at a moderate pace, when sudaenly the driver notiecd an
alarming oscillation of the viaduct, aad, looking in front,
observed that some of the timbers had given way. lie in-
stantly shut a his steam, but fading that an accident was
inevitable, he and his stoker sprang off the engine into the
sea, and thus escaped ; but in a moment or two afterwards
the train reached the point where the viaduct had given
way, and the whole of it, with two unfortunate breaksmen
eli..ging to the waggons, was precipitated into the sea. The
two breakemen were not seen afterwards, which has led to
an inference that they were crushed to death between the
NARROW. As soon as possible the superintendent of the
works caused several divers to go down about the spot and
search for the bodies of the unfortunate fellows, but up to
late this evening their efforts had not been successful.
