4 Singular Accident near Bergen, n. !,

a ''iHS"'d' AttufHo HtstI tpti gen, ". - .
A singular and fatal accident occur
red on the Erie Railway, on the mead
ows at the western end of the Bergen
Tunnel, on Wednesday night. The
wind-storm during the evening had
blown down some of the telegraph poles
and wires, delaying trains and throwing
one locomotive off the track Three
men were sent out to put up the line,
and had placed most of the wires in
position, but had not secured them,
when the whole fell with crash. The
wires struck Edward Van Ness, one of
the workmen, and threw him to the
ground with such force as to break his
neck. A man named O'Connors, an
other one of the workmen, was also
caught in the wires and had his leg
broken.
