ACCIDENT AND rNCIDENr.
| New Haven Photographer Dead
 From An OYerdOSe of Mnl.nhinn

 A New Haven Photographer Dead
 From An Overdose of Morphine.
 About o'clock this morning Abraham, NJ. DeSilva of New Haven, one or the best known photographers in the state. was found in bed, nearly dead from an overdose of morphine. He was uncon. scious and his body presented fearful appearance. having turned purple from the effects of the poison. Dr Madden was hastily summoned and did what he could. after which the patient was re. moved to the hospital. He died at noon. DeSilva has neglected his business of late and took to drink, owing to family troubles. He twice travelled through Africa taking views for pub fishing house and had made arrange ments for another trip to the dark con tinent.
 The burden of the evidence seems to put the blame for the railroad accident, Saturday, at South Norwalk, upon Engineer Searles of the express. He testified that the switch tender did not signal him. On the other hand the switch tender swore that he not only signalled the express, but that he put his lantern on the track the moment he saw the signal was not obeyed, and the engine struck it, knocking it to pieces. The wreck of the lantern was exhibited to the superintendents. Several other witnesses of the accident testified that they witnessed the switch tenders vain efforts to stop the train and corroborated his statement in every particular.
