passed through the city at IL O'Clock last
night, met with an accident one mile and
a half east of Qulnn's about halEpast l
this morning. At that hour the train was
proceeding at the usual rate OF speed
when it encountered some rails Oh the
track which had been thrown out of posi-
tIon by heavy bowlder falling on The
road-bed. All the coaches except two
were ditched, and the trucks badly in
jured. Fortunately there were no en-
bankments at this poiDt, ,and the cars SIM |
ply left the rails without turning oveI |
No one was injured at last accounts, al |
though there was quite q number of pas |
sengers on board. 1t will take some time |
10 replace the coaches and locometlve on
the track and repair the injury to tine
rails, and until this is done 40 trains Can
pass either east or west.
