A trolley car of the Troy City Railroad
Company was struck by the night-boat
special Of the Delaware and Hudson Rail
road at crossing at the west end OF the
Hudson river bridge, which connects Co
hoes, N. Y, with Lansingburg, and its
passengers were hurled into the air. Ten
of the thirty-fve passengers were killed
outright, eight died shortly afterward ana
at least ten of the remainder will die. The
motor car was struck directly in the CEN
ter by the engine of the train, which was
going at high rate of speed. The accl-
dent came without the slightest warning.
When the collision occurred the motor car
parted in two, both sections being hurled
into the air in splinters. The people were
torn and mangled. Those in front met
the worst fate. Every person in that sec
ton of the car was killed. Bodies were
hurled into the air and their headless and
limbless trunks were found in some cases
fifty feet from the crossing.

will come. Out of thirty river boats, at
least twenty of them will be frozen in.
