TIE NoywaH Massacre--The Jury of
inquest held over the victims of tn late
Rail Road accident on the New Haven rail-
road, having completed their investigaI ions,
have returned a verdict in which they d, ,clare
the immediate cause of the disaster wa s the
negligence and reck essness of the engineer,
Edward Tucker. At the same time they e]o not
think the entire responsibility Of the di saster
rests upon him. The conductor is regar ded as
censurable in not regulating the speed of the
train when he knew it was approaching a dam
gerous point; and the Company is declared in
fault in not providing a more unmist.,kable
signal and in adopting such other fixed rules
as would have rendered the occurrence of the
accident impossible. The verdict will be
transmitted to the Supeme Court in c.,mpli-
ance with the laws of the State of Con nec,i
cut.
