injured is the revised casualty list in
the wreck Of the lntercolonial express
train, the five cars of which left the
rails at Hunters Crossing, forty miles

Dead; Mrs. John Classy Halifax.
Fatally injured: Conductor Robert
Duncan, Halifax; Baggagemaster J. e.

are most seriously injured.
The relief train, bearing the body Of
Mrs. Classy and those most seriously
injured, has reached here from the
scene Of the wreck, and the injured
were removed to the hospital.
The train, consisting of locomotive,
postal car, baggage car, two day coach
rs and Pullman car, was bound from
this city for Montreal and Boston and
travelling forty miles an hour when the
accident occurred.
AS the curve at Hunters Crossing
was reached Engineer Ross felt jolt
and, looking back. saw the baggage
car swervc from the rails, followed by
the coaches and the mail car. The five
cars went over the embankment and
rolled down into the river, which skirts

The Pullman turned over twice. One
Of the coaches struck a tree and was

thought to have wrecked the train, bu.
investigation showed that this was not
the case. The overturned cars carried
