Yesterday morning an accident hap
'peued at the north end of the P, ". &
Ky. passenger depot, by which George
Bunfill, deck hand on board the Belle
Prince, lost his life, being run over and
crushen into AL uniecngnizabIe mass.
The morning freight train, with a
passenger car attached, arrived at the
yards IN North Wheeling yesterday NOR
nlng at the usual time, about 8 o'clock.
and was taken in charge by the yard
crew, engine No 70, John MulIigan en-
gineer, being attached to the front OF
the train. The tram started for the
freight depot at the speed of about six
lies an hour. A. the Water Works,
the engine, as is usual, was cut loose,
and ran on ahead Of the train in order
to get on the switch at the passenger
depot, so as TO let the train pass and
then back down so ss to push the cars
into the freight depot. The switch lock
is about midway of the depot platform.
and the engine had passed this. 1t had
been changed, and the engine coming
forward bad entered The switch and was
standing still The switch lad again
heen changed sc that the cars coming
down the track would have been carried
straight on down the main track over
the wharf The cars we're coming slowly
not over four miles an hour, having lost
their momentum.
Just before they reached the platform
Buntil cane up the bank and started to
walk in front of the cars. 1t appeared
as though he was endeavoring TO see
how long he could stav on the track and
not he hit John Joyce brakeman
who was at the switch yelled to him, but
fhe paid no attention, and to the horro:
of all who were about he was seen to
be struck by the car and knocked for
ward. 1t is thought that the forward
trucks OF the FIST car passed over his
body, hut the rear trucks caught him
and commenced rolling him, the cracking
Of The bones being distinctly heard. Had
the train been gong fast it would un
doubtedly have KEEP! The track, but as ii
was going slowly the body OF Bunfil
sufficed to throw four cars from the
track, and it was not until The heavy
tram had passed along at least four cal
lengths that il was stopped.
The engineer OF the engine on the side
track saw the man as the first trucks
psssed over him and blew for ''aowr
