A Terrible Accident

William Wooden, of Mianus, painter at work Monday on the premises of G. I. Ty- son, at Riverside, where rock blasting was being done, stopped to see blast fired He was about 300 feet from the blast, which was fired by workman named Patrick Cavanagh A stone weighing fully three pounds flew up to great height in the air, and in it's descent struck 'Worden on the head. It's jagged edges cut through the straw hat and ribbon like a knife and opened the unfortunate mans forehead until the brain protruded. As soon as possible Drs. Rogers and Hanger ford, of Stamford, and Jones, of Greenwich, were summoned to the spot. They had the greatest difficulty on account of the violent muscular exertions of the patient. It re- quired six men to hold him while the wound was dressed, and at least four men were re- quired to attend him ever since. There seems little or no possibility that he will ul- timately recover. The wonder is that such an injury was not immediately fatal.

R.IIroad Rrioge on Fire.

The train due in this city at 12:45 o'clock this morning when approaching the Stratford junction the engineer discovered that the ties and sleepers were on fire, and the blaze was streaming up ten feet high. The traip was stopped, and the hands with buckets ob- tained water from the river and extinguished the fire The train was about fifteen minutes late in reaching New Haven. The fire was probably caused by the live coals from the open ash pan of train that had previously passed over the bridge.

Instantly Killed.

William Fullerton, a Brakeman, Knock
 ed From the Roof of Car at HiII-
 house Avenue Bridge-A Queer Case
 of Carelessness,
 William Fullerton, 8 brakeman on the 20, in charge of Engineer Ed. Schorer, which went up to push a freight train over the Canal street grade early yesterday morning. When the engine was on the way back young Fullerton mounted the cab and was struck by the Hillhouse avenue bridge and was knocked of and killed instantly. His remains were taken to the morgue.
 It was the unfortunate young mans third week in the employ of the road. He we'll knew the danger of his proceeding, and it seems strange that he should have forgotten himself. He vas not seen by the on the rear footboard. When Dr. White ex- amined the body he found that no bones were broken, the only marks on the body be- ing g slight bruise on one of the shoulders and another on the forehead. The former, Dr. White thinks, was caused by the contact of the body with the stone wall and the lat ter with the bridge. Fullerton was thrown of the cab in such a way that he did not fall beneath the wheels of the engine and his body escaped being mangled.
 Fullerton lived on Congress avenue His father conducted the railroad mems reading room at No. 177 Meadow street until short time ago, when he died. Coroner Bollman examined witnesses about the affair and found that death was caused by an accident.
