 Anderson was firing the engine pulling the train which left the city at S:15 o'clock yesterday morning. When near Greenes switch he leaned out of the cab and looked down at the grate bars There was a freight car standing on the side track which the negro failed to notice His head came in contact with the car and as the train was moving rapidly he was knocked from the car.
 When picked up it was found the ne gro's skull had been fractured, and it is feared he is suffering from concussion of the brain.
 Warner & Smiley's ambulance was or dered and the injured man was taken to the office of Dr. Talley, the compapy's physician, and his wounds dressed.
 His wounds are serious, but, 1t is thought, not necessarily fatal.
