4 WRECK OF MATTER.
An accident occurred on the Rutland
Railroad at an early hour yesterday
"wednesday morning at Mount Holly,
near the scene Of the fatal accident Of
1870, which resulted in a great destuc-
ton of property, serious interruption of
travel, but fortunately without loss Of
lifc or serious injury to the passengers
The mixed train, due here at &. 30 pm,
Wednesday, and to leave Bellows Falls
At 8. 50 p. m, left that station one hour
and thirty-hyp minutes late, being de
tanned by the non,arrival of the train
over the Vermont Valley railroad The
train consisted of four freight cars. one
baggage and one passenger car, drawn
by the locomotive otter Creek. Mar
tin Ross, engineer. Just before reach
ing Ludlow, one of the draW-bars. con
Meeting tie train, was broken, and the
services Of the 'DunmOre" were called
into requisition, and the train pushed to
the station at Ludlow.
At Ludlow the regular freight train
was overtaken, the "DumOre' attached
50 the mixed train, and, with the ''Otter
Greek" ahead, started for Rutland, leay-
ing the cars of the freight train behind.
with the exception Of the ''cabOOse,
which was placed in the rear of the pas
senger car. They arrived at the Sum
NIT without trouble, and here met eight
locomotives with three or more trains,
delayed fer the wantof wood and water
Some further delay was occasioned here
in shifting trains to side tarcks, and this
being accomplished the locomotives
were compelled to return to Hcaldvillc
for wood and water, so that by the time
the train was ready to take a final start
for Rutland the night express from
Boston was also at the Summit.
The "Otter Creek" having a snow
pillow, was placed in the lead and with
the "Dunmore' to assist in drawing the
train, being made up in the same way as
when they left Ludlow, leaving the
night express to follow, they again start
ed. After proceeding about a mile, and
when near "Holden's crossing" they
ran into a snow drift, breaking the
draw-bar between the two locomotives
and also between the ''Dunmore" and
the cars, leaving the train in three parts
or sections. The conductor, as soon as
the cars stopped, sent back man to
signal the approaching express, but the
night. as Josiah Boutelle,. one of the
oldest conductors on the road says, was
one of the most dark and stormy ever
experienced on the mountains, prevent
cd the signal from being seen, and the
express came laundering on. When the
engineer of the express train, George
