RAILROAD AcctDExr.--A slight collision
occurred upon the Rock Island railroad
Tuesday night at the Blue Island station
between the upward and downward bound
passe niger trans. The former was run BY
an engineer named Hays, who from mis-
Judgment as to his nearness OF the station,
or from carelessnes, neglected TO check ms
train in time, and consequently arrived az
the turnout at great speed. The switch
man thinking that it would be worse to IN
cur the danger Of throwing the cars OF the
track BY switching the train on to the cur
wing sidetrack than to allow collision,
changed the switch to the straight track,
and as the downward train was also coming
in, the collision ensued. The breaks had SO
far checked the speed of the trains before
they struck that but little damage was done
to the engines, and no person injured. The
blame appears to rest entirely upon the en-
gineer, Hays, who was discharged. lie
