Wreck of Two En ElneS-Result c f an lCn- gfneer's Lack of Judgment.
 PITrsBURG, Aug. 27.-The fast line west, which left the Union depot last night over the Pan Handle railway, met with 8 serious accident about o'clock this morning at Min go Junction, point about fifty miles west of
 the city and which has been the scene of sev-
 eral accidents. As the train was approach ing Mingo Junction it came in collision with a freight train, which was endeavoring
 to make the passing point The engine and
 postal car of the passenger train and a num-
 Der of the cars of the freight train were
 wrecked. Mir. Wolf, engineer of the fast line, had three ribs fractured and one thumb
 so seriously hurt that amputstien was neces-
 sary. J. H. Hoyt and William Newman, pos
 tai clerks, were both seriously hurt, and it is supposed that Newman cannot recover.
 The accident, it is claimed, was the result of lack of judgment On the part of the engi-
 neer and conductor of the freight train. They had orders to pass the fast line at Min go Junction, but were delayed at Alexandria Road, some miles further west, by hot boxes. Instead of pulling in on the siding at that
 point the conductor attempted to make the
 passing point as ordered, and the collision ensued. The passengers escaped injury, but
 were all mure or less badly shaken up. The injured, all of whom Pittsburgers, were sent back to Steubenville for medical atten- ton. The train proceeded west at 9 o'clock this morning.
