An accident by which faithful engineer
was killed and train of passengers mar
rowly escaped destruction occurred on the
Delaware & Hudson railroad Wednesday
night. the details of which are as follows :
The Montreal "sleeper" Wednesday
night was composed of the locomotive LIE
Grand B. Common. baggage Car. IN ex-
press Car. two coaches and a sleeping car,
and was in charge of Conductor Henry
Baldrich. The train had passed Dresden
station on Lake Champlain, and was about
quarter of mile north of that station
and moving at high rate of speed, when
at 2: 80 o'clock, Thursday morning, it
struck large rock which had been dis
lodged and fallen npon the track The
engine was thrown from the track and
preclpitated down an embankment into
he lake, carrying the engineer and fire
man with it. The baggage Car was also
derailed and overturned, but was not
thrown into the water. The remaining
cars kept their places on the track. As
soon rs the passengers could recover from
the shock of the collision, efforts were
made TO discover the fate OF the occupants
of the locomotive. The dead body of the
engineer, Charles Catswell, was found
under the baggage Car. He had apparent
~ attempted to Chamber out OF the engine,
and been crushed under the falling car.
The remains were scarcely recogn fable,
having been so shockingly mutlated that
they were almost ground into bits. The
fireman, Henry Rich of Whitehall, was
J found to have escaped without serious in
jury. The express messenger was severe
ly bruised and two passengers sustained
slight wounds and were cut by broken
glass,
The engineer, Caswel, saw the rock on
the track, but stood manfully to his post,
sounding the whistle and applying the air
brake. The fireman jumped from the cab,
and was severely bruised but escaped with
his life. Had Caswell also jumped he
would probably have escaped, He resided
in whitehall and Is survived by wife
and two children. He WAS about forty
years old and was one of the most careful
and competent engineers in the service of
the company. Caswell has been ON the
road for many years, His life was insured
tor $1,000.
The locomotive was not totally wrecked
The baggage car was considerably dama0-
ed. The loss will probably reacn $4,000.
A heavy thunder storm prevailed along
thu lake, and portion OF the high bank
along whose face the railroad runs and
which is formed of clay and quicksand, slid
down upon the track, bearing the rock
with it. The accident occurred on what ia
known as the old part of the Champlain
division.

decision is of general interest and import

cisons on questions respecting the rights
