were in the second-class, and which was also
used as smoking car, and with the excep-
tion of the tiremen, engineer and train-men
the casualties were all caused by steam.
None Of the regular passenger coaches or
sleepers We're thrown from the track or in
any way injured. A good deal Of censure
has been cast upon the officers of the rail-
road to-day for not allowing the accident to
h. lyna-n Sasuesyav nsnhf that tho
friends of those that were killed or
wounded could reach them by an early train.
The cause Of the accident was the criminal
recklessness Of the conductor and engineer Of
the coal train, whose duty it was to wait at
Lamont till the passenger tram had passed,
or until they had received positive orders to
proceed, which they did not receive. The
conductor of the coal train, whose name il
Bear, has not been seen since the disaster
and Ia supposed to have fed. The passenger
train was on time and had right TO the
track.
