The Great Railroad Accident.
BURLINGTON, Sep. /!

aL BURLINGTON, Sep. D. Sc
THE jury of inquest rendered a verdict,
this morning, declaring that the immedi-
ate cause of the running off of the cars
was the rear car Of the train, while back
ing, coming ,ins contact with pair of
horses driven by DR.. Heriken--said horses
being attached to acarriage; that there was
not due diligence used by the driver of
said carriage; that the engineer of the
backing train did not observe the rules OF
the Company and the laws of New Jersey
ID reference to blowing the whistle when
approaching cross roads;that the conduc7
tor is exonerated from blame, inasmuch
as he was acting in accordance with the
Instructions as laid down in the time ta-
ble,of said road; that the forward brake
man is censurable; that one of the imme-
diate causesaof the collision was the care-
lessness and recklessness of DR.. Heriken
indriving his horses on the Railroad track;
that another immediate cause of collision
was the reckless and careless manner in
which the train of cars was proceeding
backwards alta rate of speed unsafe; that
by the running regulations issued by the
company, the possibility of collision be-
tween the opposing trains on a single
track, is so great as to prove that some
more efficient mode ought to be adopted
TO prevent re-occurence of the cause
which had called this inquest together; and
The Jury hereby suggest thatlife and limbs
sof passengers are of more importance than
the saving of q minute of time. ssss IS
