PLACING THE BLAME
OF THE RAILROAD ACCIDENT
NEAR CHESTER HEIGHTS ONI
FRIDAY LAST.

OF THE RAILROAD ACCIDENT
NEAR CHESTER HEIGHTS ON
FRIDAY LAST.
Media, Dec. 2S.-Coroner Edward Fry
held an inquest yesterday in the case
of David Mcdonald, the engineer, and
Grant Null, the fireman, of a passen-
ger train on the Baltimore Central rail-
road, who were killed on Friday even
ing, near Chester Heights, by their
locomotive colliding with train Of
freight cars. The evidence showed that
William Danvers, the brakeman on the
runaway freight train, did not apply
the brakes. The runaway cars started
at Brandywine Summit, and railroad
men testified that they could have put
the brakes on every car before the pas
senger train was net on the two mile
run.
The circumstances lead to an opinion
that Danvers must have been asleep in
the caboose. He was caught in the
wreck and died from injuries next day.
The verdict of the jury was accidental
death, due to the apparent neglect OF
the fiagman Of the freight.
1t was shown that a dispatch that
would have held the passenger train al
Chester Heights and saved the life Of
the engineer and fireman arrived there
half a minute too late. The operator
was out attending to the train baggage
and mail of the il1-fated train, and
when he returned to the office the dis
patch was still coming over the wire
The train had started then and it was
too late to flag 1t.

WOMAN IN a WELL
UNINJURED SHE WAS FOUND AL
MOST FROZEN STANDING IN
THE WATER.


THE WATER.
Media, Dec. 2S.-There was great ex-
citement in the little manufacturing
town OF Rockdale, on Chester creek.
Tuesday, over the discovery and rescue
OF Mrs. Edward Lilley from the bottom
OF a forty-foot well. Mrs. Lilley lives
on historic spot back of the Noun
tain House, called "The Mount" and
the well she was found in was one Of
the old oaken bucket kind at her own
door.
The discovery that Mrs. Lilley was
in the well was made by her daughter,
Mrs. Winfield Baker, residing in Media.
and who called to see her. When Mrs.
Baker reached her mothers house she
saw no one around She called her
mother, and heard, as II coming out Of
the well, the answer: Here / am"
Mrs. Baker looked down the we'll
and there, sure enough, standing in
the water was Mrs. Lilley, nearly
frozen to death.
Several men were summoned, and they
rescued Mrs. Lilley with a rope. Think
ing that the woman had fallen into
the well, a physician was called to ex-
anime her, but no mark or bruise was
TO be found upon her body.
There are spikes driven into the
stone wall of the well for steps, and,
impossible as it may seem, Mrs. Lilley
must have gone into the well in this
way. She could not have fallen in or
jumped in without being killed or bad
ly injured. After her rescue Mrs. Lilley
would not say how she went into the
well, but said her life was full Of trou-
BILE.
