roc HID THE SIGNAL LIGHTS.
The Blue Island accommodation Is
scheduled to leave the city few minutes
| ahead Of the limited train and both pulled
out on time tonight The accommoda-
| ton stopped at Seventy-hrst street to re-
ceive and let off passengers. Close behind
1t was the limited express bearing down
on IL at the rate it is said, of twenty
miles an hour A heavy fog settled over
the city early in the evening and 1t was
almost impossible to clearly discern signal
lights, The engine Of the express train
ploughed its way into the rear coach OF
the accommodation The car was picked
up and carried forward so great was the
momentum, and was driven with terrible
force into the end of the second coach
from the rear.
FIRE IN THE RUINS.
The explosion OF a lamp ignited the
woodwork in the debris, and the fire soon
began TO spread rapidly.
