Accident Ola the Hudson River Rail.
rOau-LOSs Of Life.

PurGHKEEpsIE, Feb. "A dispatch sent
this morning gives the following account Of Il
! terrible disaster on the Hudson River Railroad
last night:
An oil train Was bound South, and while
passing New Hamburg al axle OF an oil cal
broke and dragged along the ground till it
reached the draw bridge, when striking the
timbers it threw the car off its track and
upon the up track in the face of the Second
Pacific express.
An attempt WAS made to stop the express
but there was not time enough and it struck al
oil car and the fragments Of the oil car scatter
ed in every direction, and at once ignited, en-
veloping the entire express train in flames. =
The express train was composed Of Il locomo-
tive, one baggage car, one express car, and five
or six sleeping cars The locomotive was at
once hurled into the river, and the engineer
was killed and the baggage and express cars were
piled on top of the engin At the same time
the Chicago sleeping car was one sheet Of flame,
and though desperate attempts were made to
rescue the passengers it is said not one got out
alive
Two of the other sleeping cars next to it We're
also wrapped in flames, but the passengers in
them all got out safely, and then the bridge
took fire
In less than ten minutes afterwards the whole
structure fell, carrying with it the Chicago Cal
and burying it and its inmates out Of sight,
under water and among the ruins of the loco
motive and express cars This terrible result
settled all doubts as to the probability of rescu-
ing any one, dead or alive, and there was moth
inr to do till daylight The names Of the Kill
led as far as known are Simmons, engineer.
and Peter &. Nosburg, conductor OF the Chc;i-
20 car. and brakeman named Bhrnc. 1t Is
also thought that the Rev. Dr. Deems Of the
Church of the Stranger, New York city, and
wife, are among the dead, as Il gentleman stat
ed that they occupied Il berth in the Chicago
car Charles Cossunl, conductor OF the train,
states that there We're sixty five sleeping car
tickets and that fifty two Of them have found
owners, Indicating that but thirteen are mis-
sing Passengers say, however, that the Chi
cago car contained twenty-five or thirty per
SONS, and not one got out alive.
All the trains are stopped at the break this
morning and the work Of recovering the dead
bodies has commenced. Coroner Andrews OF
Poughkeepsie has been notified and is wal ting
for 4 train to convey him to the spot. Upon
the Ice near the wreck body was found with
the entrails torn out and the head and legs
crushed. 1t has not been identified

sixteen bodies have been recovered. including
two children All the remains will be forward
