That Boston & Maine AccIde emit at
Lawrence,

The following are the particulars of the
accident on the Boston & Maine at Lawrence
that occurred Saturday, and of which the
telegraph gave brief parti culars:
AS the Portland express, due in Boston at
11.15, drawn by the engine Pontiac, came at
moderate speed along the road Just beyond
the South Lawrence bridge, dummy engine
the Everett. drawing train of empty freight
cars, crossed directly in front of the express.
The two cOllided. One side of the dummy
was smashed into pieces. The Pontiac lost
its c0wcatcher and headlight, but Fortunate
ly chung to the track. Two freight cars at
tached to the dummy were derailed. The
baggage car of tho express train was some
what damaged by striking the derailed
freight cars. The passengers were shaken
up, but no one was injured. The engineer
OF the dummy jumped from the windows and
the fireman also escaped. AS the dummy is
entirely boxed In, they would have lost their
lives II they had remained.
The train was backed round 7, and was
brought into Boston backward by the use Of
an extra engine. The wreck of the dummy
closed up three tracks for time, thus delay
ing all the trains half an hour or more. Had
the express been coming at high speed the
disaster would have been great. The engin-
eer of the express could not see the freight
train, as his view was Obstructed by the
abutments OF the bridge.
