TEN PERSONS KILLED.
Death In q Wreck on the Great Northern
Road in England.

LONDON, Nov. ia collision oc-
CURED this morning on the Great West
ern Railway at Norton Fitzwarren,
station near Taunton, between goods
train and special train from
Plymouth, which was convey
ing the passengers from the
steamer Norham Castle, which had just
arrived at Plymouth from the Cape of
Good Hope. Ten persons were killed
and eight injured. The condition of
several of the injured is serious.
The collision, which occurred at 2
O'Clock this morning, was caused by the
negligence of signal man. The goods
train had been shunted to the up line
to allow the down night mail train to
pass, which it did safely. The night
was rainy and dark, and the signalman
forgot that the goods train was
standing on the up track
and the up-bound special train, which
consisted of four carriages containing
fifty passengers, rushed past the station
at the rate of fifty miles an hour and
dashed into the goods train.
The first carriage of the special was
entirely demolished. The fire from the
specials engine ignited the wood of
the carriage, and the wreck was quickly
a mass of flames. Six of the occupants
of this carriage were burned to death.
One of its occupants, a negro, was COM
pletely beheaded. The stoker of the
special train had miraculous escape.
He was in the tender which telescoped
into second class coach, the door of
which he opened, emerging without
scratch
