The following particulars Of the serious
accident to the Cincinnati express train on
the New York and Erie Railroad, on The 1G:h
INST, were furnished BY one Of tie injured pas
s=ngrrs:
The train consisted ofone baggage and two
passenger cars, containing not far from fifty per
sons, and al the time the accident occurred Was
going at a moderate speed. Our informant was
IN the forward passenger car, and says he was
first conscious Of receiving a violent shock, and

one end OF the car with most Of the PASSENGERS
and the wreck OF the seats and the stove piled
uptogether
Ii seems the locomotive and tender parted
from the rest Of the train and were thrown Oh
on the side from the river, while the cars went
down the bank, which Is about fifteen feet above
the water. The river was frozen along the
shore, and one end of the first passenger car
plunged through the ice, smashing the front
and Irtting water into the car to the depth OF
two or three feet. Fortunately the fire ID the
stove was at once extinguShed by the water.
As soon as The passengers recovered conscious
ness they set TO work to break their way out
through the shattered front of the car. 4 lad
who was fastened under the fragments OF the
seats was completely drenched with water. and
came near freezing to death before be was ex-
trcatrd. Nearly all the passengers IN the tor
ward car were more or less bruised, though no
limbs are believed TO be broken.
The rear car remained resting upon the ice,
while its occupants were found 10 have suffered
more or less from contusions. The baggage car
was completely demolished, and one man in it.
Passenger killed, whose name cur informant
was unable to learn. Deceased was sailor
