ESCAPE.
Drivershaken Up andHorse
Killed By Cars.

A valuable horse owned by Arnold &
Maine, proprietors of the New Eng
land grocery on Front street, was
killed yesterday afternoon at the Ply
mouth street crossing, and one of the
firms delivery teams reduced to kind
ling wood as a result of a collision with
a switching engine and three freight
cars.
The driver Eugene w. Potter, mar
rowly escaped death and for g. time it
was supposed that he had suffered Sc
rious injury, but after an examination
by DR.. w. q. Stevens, at his home, 1853
Main street, last night, it was thought
that he escaped without breaking any
bones.
The accident happened about
O'Clock, and according to Potters story
1t would not have happened if the gate
tender had been attending to business.
The south gate on the crossing was
lowered but the northern gate nearest
Orange street was up and Potter sup
posed that the way was clear.
He had got about half way across
when the horse SHE'D, and on looking
out Potter saw a freight car loom up
within two feet of him. Whether he
jumped or was pushed out of the team
he could not say last night, but was
certain that he landed against one of
the switches with sufficient force to jar
its foundation.
The car struck the team about the
centre and knocked the horse down,
dragging him about 80 feet. The ami
NAL put up a game fight, and succeed
ed in demolishing three switch posts
and derailing the three cars. The team
was knocked to pieces, and about SIS
worth of groceries ordered by custom
ers of the firm were scattered over the
ground.
The switcher was in charge of Con-
ductor Joseph Felix, who was on top
of one of the cars with George Doher-
ty, a brakeman. Both men were GER
tain that the cars would tip over as
soon as they left the track, and, not
taking any chances, jumped.
Mr.. Potter was picked up by one Of
the railroad men and Agent H. H. Nc
Cambridge of the road ordered the am
bulance called. Potter was made as
comfortable as possible in the gate
tenders shanty, but refused to wait
for the ambulance and was brought to
his home by w l.. Smith, who hap
pened to be near the crossing at the
time of the accident. Everything pos
sible was done for Potter by Agent
McCambridge.
The crossing was blocked to traffic
for a half hour on account of the de-
rallied cars, and the passenger train
due to leave the Union station at 4.40
o'clock was delayed about 10 minutes.
