The scene of the accident was about two
miles from Marlboro at the foot of a
steep grade.
The cars came together with such force
that they were almost completely demoI-
ished. One car left Marlboro soon after
O'Clock, in charge of Conductor Felix
Sawyer and MotorInan William S. Moore.
The other car, loaded with workingmen,
left Hudson about the same time. in

seriously injured, and materially assisted
in relieving the sulferings Of many Of the
others.

Newark turned the tables on Jersey

winning hard fought game, with victory
coming at the close. Newark has been
going through the season with lucky

lucky eighth The luck turned away
from both at the usual time of arrival.
In the seventh Newark was shut out and
Jersey City scored, giving them a ma

shut out and Newark scored a majority
and victory by one run, their efforts at
this point giving them two runs, one of
which was the only earned run of the

roasting OF Umpire Egan, but it was due
Largely to the over anxiety of the fans
