ACCIDENT ON THE PENN'A GEN.
TRIAL Il. II.
Collision Near Willmore-.One Man
Killed, Several Wounded and a
Large Amount Of Property
naatrnvad.

PITTSBURGH, Sept 13.-Shortly before
8 o'clock last night, frightful accident
occurred on the Pennsylvania Railroad, q
mile east Of Willmore, by which one man
was killed and several wounded, and the
trains east and west were delayed, and q
large amount Of property destroyed. The
accident was undoubtedly the result Of a
violation Of the regulations in reference to
the opening and closing Of the switches
from the main track at the point named.
A freight train bound east was switched
from the main track to the middle siding
according to orders so as to allow the
Philadelphia express, which left this city
at 4:4O yesterday afternoon, to pass a
westward bound freight train, which
came dsrting along before tue switch
at the east end Of the siding
could be turned to the main western track,
the western train ran OH the siding and
collidcd with the train which was lying
there. About the same moment tho Phil
adelphia express passenger train from the
east came along and passed safely until the
rear sleeping car was reached, when one
OF the cars Of the cast bound freight struck
ii and badly wrecked It. One lady who
occupied seat In the rear Car received
a number Of bruises from the flying
debris, but was not seriously injured.
The express train was not seriously dam
aged, but Its escape from being a total
wreck was miraculous. The engineer of
the Westward freight train, VIM. Green,
a resident Of Alton, was caught in the
cab Of his engine and received injuries
which caused death instantly. The en-.
gineer and fireman OF the Eastward uaiu
were also badly injured, but not fatally.
Three locomotives, one pusher, and two
engines were almost totally destroyed, and
q number of freight cars demolished.
Different tracks around the siding and the
ground tor considerable distance were
torn up. I.-g.l..
