A collision between the up and down
passenger trains on the Central railroad
shortly after l O'Clock yesterday morning
at Oconee, $40 miles from Savannah, re-
suited in the injuring Of Engineer Thomas
J. Cleary and Fireman J. Lee Morgan Of
the down train.
The collision was caused by the mis-
placement of a switch. Oconee is where
the passenger trains to and from Atlanta
pass each other. The outward bound train
reached Oconee first aud took the siding.
The switch was not changed after the train
ran on the rails, and in few minutes the
down train came rushing along the track,
and as it reached the switch the engineer
was surprised that his engine should swing
over and start down the track
toward the headlight OF the other
Srafn. He applied the air pumps,
but they wouldn't work, and, real
izing that collision was inevitable, he re-
versed his engine and called to Fireman
Morgan to jump for MS life. Both men
jumped almost ut the same moment.
Engineer Cleary fell against the rails OF
the track and was injure about the body,
and had bis left ankle sprained and his
right knee and shoulder dislocAted.
Fireman Morgan was considerably
bruised, but not seriously.
Engineer Taylor Of the Atlanta bound
train end his fireman jumped, but struck in
the soft sand aud escaped injury.
The injured engineer and fireman were
brought to the city on the down train,
which arrived about II O'Clock. over four
hours behind time. Cleary was taken to
his home on McDonough street, near West
Broad, where DIR. Elliott, surgeon of the
company, attended him and dressed his
injuries While he is not dangerously
hurt, 1t will probably be many weeks be-
fore he will be able to resume his duties.
Morgan will be around in few days This
Is the second time he has been injured
within few months.
Both engines were badly wrecked aud the
passengers on the trains escaped with a
fright and little shaking up. Engineer
Cleary said that be tested his air pumps a
mile aud half from where the accident oc-
CURED, and they worked all right, but when
he tried to use them to stop his engine and
prevent a collision, they failed utterly.
What the cause was he doesn't know
Engineer Cleary is regarded as one of the
best and safest engineers on the Central
He has been running continuously for eleven
years, and yesterdays accident was the first
of its character that ever occurred TO him
The Central authorities are Investigating
the case to find out who is to blame for the
displacement of the switch.

be lost no opportunity to broaden it by
thoughtful research, and he often welded
a vigorous pen in contributions to the public
press on leading topics of the day, in which
the originality OF his reasonings, if they did
not always carry convictions with
them, left no doubt of the sincerity
and zeal of the writer. No one could fail to
discern genius aud ntellect in his writings.
