THE accident on the p, W. &B.
Railroad last Saturday seems 10 have
been one OF those against which hu-
man foresight could not provide. By
some means, probably the motion Of
the train, door becomes loosened
nom freight car and without tho
knowledge Of any OF the crew falls on
the north-bound track, over which an
express train is almost due. Not only
that, but 1t fell at place where,
owing TO a curve, the engineer and
fireman OF the fated train could see bu,
. short distance ahead. Consequently
1t was impossible to see the obstruction
until 1t was too late TO stop the train
and avoid an accident, which It seems
proVidential was not much worse than
1t was. We do not believe there is a
company in the world that exercises
more care in the management of Its
roads than the Pennsylvania, and con.
sequently there are very lew acci.
dents.
