New York, Dec %. Two OF the
fastest express trains Of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad came into collision at
COlODa, a small station in New Jersey
just beyond Railway. The early Wash
ingtoD express crashed into the rear
end Of the Pittsburg Flyer. tearing the
rear car into kindling wood and kill
ing two persons and badly injuring ten
others. A heavy fog prevailed at the
time Of the accident and the flyer was
going slowly while the engine driver
was endeavoring to read the signals.
The engineer Of the Washington ex-
press supposed he had a clear track.
When three miles from Railway, \. j.,
the Pittsburg flyer was stopped, ac-
cOrling to its engineer, by signal. n
rather thick fog prevailed. The Wash
ingtOn express, coming up from be-
hind at about twenty miles an hour
dashed into the flyer. sending bag
gage car off the track and crushing
through into the Pullman sleeper Bar
taoldi which contained fifteen passen-
gers, the pullman conductor and col
ored porter The engine of the Wash
ington express did not come to stop
until half the sleeping car was kind
ling wood The colored porter and the
passengers were caught upon the top
of the boiler, their bodies twisted by
the debris and badly mangled. The
engine of the Washington express was
badly damaged and the tender thrown
off the track. Beyond the smashing Of
a Southern Express car and car plat
forms the Washington express sus-
tanned no other damage and none Of
its passengers We're seriously hurt.
Previous to the collision John Van
dergrift, the engineer Of the Washing
ton express, and fireman jumped off.
Both received scalp wounds. The
flyer was composed of mail and ex-
press cars The Bartholdi was the
only passenger car it carried. The
rear baggage was empty and proved
but slight impeachment to the engine OF
the other train. which forced its way
through. The passengers In the Bar
tholdi were thrown forward, amid
broken woodwork, escaping steam and
flying glass. The car toppled over on
it's side and lay slanting against the
bank. The unhurt passengers
scrambled through the windows. For
two hours two women and two men
lay pinned down under the debris, sur
fering from their injuries. 1t was I'M
possible to get them out until the ar
