ANOTHER RAIL ROAD ACCIDENT

ONE MAN KILLED. - Last Thursday
morning, near 9 O'Clock, our citizens were
startled by the news that Peter Daley,
conductor # the gravel train on the La
Porte railroad, engaged in leveling up the
new grade in the west Part of town. had
been run over, and seriously. if not fatally,
injured. The circumstances attic nding the
misfortune were about as follows:
Mr.. Daily was making what railroad
uen call the "chain SWITCH" which is
done by means of chain or rope, about
twenty feet in length, being fastened to
the locomotive and to the forward end of
the train, and turning the switch 50 that
while the locomotive moves on one track,
lie train is drawn upon another, that the
locomotive may be run back and attached
to what was in the first place the rear of
the train. Mr.. Daily was holding up the
chain, when it broke, and threw him
across the track, and before he could get
out of the way of the moving train, he was
run over and frishtfully maDgled. One
leg was mashed at the knee joint, and the
other just above. He was Immediately
brought to town, placed in the Arbor
House, and medical attendance summoned.
Both limbs were amputated, but We believe
the attending surgeons entertained but lit
tie hope Of his recovery. He fingered un-
I'll about 9 o'clock on Monday evening.
when death put an end to his sufferings.
His remains were taken to LaPorte on
Tuesday, for interment.
This is the second fata, accident which
has occurred at this place, on the LaPorte
railroad, by reason of the chain witch.
John Cain being killed few years ago,
in the same manner that Mr.. Daily was.
It is to be hoped that the improvements
which the company is making will obviate
the necessity Of Using this dangerous meth
cd of shifting a train. No blame is at
tached to the company or its employees, as
those who do such work are, or should be,
fully aware of its dangers.
