Locomotive.
BUFFALO, Jan. 20.

"f.n. -s BUFFALO, Jan. ~.
A collision between the freight train
and the night express train from Horn
ellsville, took place on Saturday morn
ing between Auica and Linden, on the
New York city road. The engine of
the freight train had been stopped in o n
sequence of the fre-pan filling with snow
and exhaus;ipg the steam. The train
standing on a partial curve, and the wind
and snow blowing a gale, i, was not dis.
covered by the express train until nearly
upon il. The engineer blew a terrific
bias. from his whistle, bat The alarm was
of no avail. they ran into The freight train,
breaking up its passenger car, and killed
a man by the name of Quigley, and
breaking the arm Of another man.
When The whistle was sounded, Quigley
ran 10 the door and was in the act of
lo~okingaout upon the coming train. when
the locomotive caught him as il swept
forward, cutting his head off, and casting
it some distance on TO the side of the
tack. He was in the employ Of the
road as a tracksman. The broken car
was removed from the track, the boiler
was supplied with water, and both trains
were soon under way. The conductors
of the ireigh. train had sent back his
nagmen, but the air being so full OF snow
they were not seen.
