Singular Railroad Accident.

On Wednesday, when a coal train was
within three-fourths of a mile of Lacka
wanna, on the Honesdale branch
of the Erie railway, one of the
rocks on the side of the road,
weighing many hundred tons, tumbled
down and lodged on the railroad track,
a few feet ahead of the approaching
train, which was running pretty fast.
The engineer, D. B. Woods, and the
fireman, John Schultz, were thrown
from the engine, the latter being
thrown on his head and instantly killed,
while the engineer was only slightly in
jured. The locomotive was completely
wrecked. The center of the train was
thrown high into the air, forming, for
an instant, a huge pyramid then fifteen
cars went crashing down the embank-
ment forty feet to the river.

Transit.

The Broadway Underground Railway
Company, of New York, send forth a
handsome book containing a report of
the proposed route and plan of con-
struction, with reports of eminent en-
gineers and construction drawings from
the London underground railways.
The following is the route proposed /:
From the Battery, under Broadway, to
Central Park and Manhattansville, with
a branch at Union Square, under Fourth
avenue to Harlem river. This is the
plan of construction A frst-class
double track passenger railway, eighteen
feet high and thirty-one feet wide, under
the centre of Broadway, constructed
substantially like the London under
ground railways; private property not
to be taken or molested vaults not to
be disturbed; traffic of the street not
to be interrupted during construction;
built wholly by private capital; no sub
sidy from the public treasury. In addi-
to the many drawings of the London
underground railways which the book
contains, a fine picture of the new post
Office as it is to be is gwen.
The first report of the New York City
Central Underground Railway Company
has just been issued, and contains much
that is interesting in regard to the pro-
posed project. The route adopted for
this railway is from the City Hall to
the Harlem river, and Madison Square
to Central Park, with a section from the
City Hall to the Battery. The proposed
road is to be underground and carried
under the streets as far as is practicable,
thereby securing the right of way free
of cost. The estimate of the cost of
constructing and furnishing this road
from City Hall Park to Harlem river,
is given in the report of the engineers
as amounting to $17,625,301 The cost
of operating per annum is set down at
S 3,000,O00, including taxes, and the
total gross earnings are estimated at
S 100000 yearly. The report states
that if the means are promptly pro-
vided for securing certain right of way
and depot grounds, the work can be
completed to Forty-sixth street in two
years, and to the Hudson river soon
after.
