SET THE WRONG SWITCH.
Wreck on the New Haven Railroad
Early This Morning.

NEW YORK, April PA serious collision
occurred early this morning on the New
Haven railroad at Port Chester.
The Washington express ran into freight
train. The express is due at Port Chester
at 3:30, but does not make any stop.
The freight train was in the freight ward
at Highland street. The switchman in the
tower near this point set the wrong switch
for the Washington express to pass The
latter was made up of seven cars, including
three sleepers.
The express was running at a high rate
OF speed. The locomotive crashed into the
freight train and in a few minutes flames
the wrecked express locomotive caused the
fire. Three of the freight cars were burned.
Conductor st. Clair and brakeman Ken
nedy OF the freight train were injured.
The passengers on board of the express
train received a lively shaking up. but none
of them Were injured. Those in the sleepers
ran out of the cars without waiting to dress.
Finding that there was no immediate dam
ger they returned and dressed themselves.
The village fire companies confined the fire
to the three freight cars.
The engineer and fireman had miraculous
escapes and came out of the wreck with a
few bruises. The damage to the rolling
stock is estimated at several thousand dol
lars. The Switchman who caused the accir
dent has been suspended. :
