Terrible Railroad Accident.
NEW YORK, July 8

NEW YORK, July 9.
The railroad accident yesterday near
Newark, is thus described by man who
was moving not forty feet from the place
where the collision occurred The train
from Newark was driven by the engine
Plain6eld, and that from New York BY
the engine Aurora. / was moving with
my back turned, when | heard the Plain
field whistle fariously, and turning saw
her train approaching the switch at high
speed, the Aurora being then distant
about hundred yards. suddenly saw
pieces Of wood flying out of the tender of
the Plain6eld, and then the engine itself
bouncing over the sleepers. The motions
of the train were like three jumps, the
whistle screeching furiously all the while,
and the wheels jolting on the ties, max
ing such noise that it was heard at my
fathers farm house half mile distant.
had hardly time to realize the danger be-
fore the crash and the two engines came
together with sound like thunder, botn
the boilers bursting simultaneously.
The engines seemed to stand on their
hind wheels aud pillow into each other twen-
feet in the air. The smoke and steam
rushing out almost obscured the view, but
the Aurora could be seen to balance in the
air second and then came crashing into
the ditch, the tender shooting from behind
and falling on top of her with a fearful
smash, shaking house half mile distant
Two OF the cars attached to her telescoped
at once and caught FIRE. The Plaiufeld
stood almost erect in the air. aud her ten.
der and heavily loaded passenger cars
came smashing up against her as if they
would tear themselves to pieces. The
sides, doors and roofs seemed to fly into
a lniihou pieces.
Frank Herman, the engineer who was
killed, seemed to have enacted the heroic
part. Just before he died be said to a

with brick. He bore it patiently, and
did not offer to strike a blow in revenge.
From the house tops missiles were flung,
and the rage of the mob increased mo-
mentarily. On the southeast corner Of
Twenty-fourth street is Dan BYan's liquor
store. There is wooden awning aud a
news stand in front of it. From the shell
ter of these a murderous assault was made
upon the Eighty-fourth Regiment, COM
manded by Lieut.. Col. Mitchell. Here
the real ARRAY may be said tohave begun.
A woman flung piece of erockery from
the roof. and pistol shot was fred from
the window, the ball striking one of the
men of the Eigty-fourth. Another mis-
sile hit Captain Douglass, of the same
regiment, on the head, and without re-
ceiving any orders from General varian,
whe commanded the troops, or indeed
from any one else, the men began to FIRE
upon the densely packed mob.
A volley was poured into the window,
too, and the Sixth, following the former
corps example, blazed away also. The
Ninth took up the fusilade, and added to
the slaughter. 1t is almost impossible to
describe the horror Of the scene at thi,
