Freight Train Conductor in a
Wreck Yesterday
NEAR BLACKWELL STREET
Two Cars Jumped Track and Slid Over
Ten Foot Embankment-D Dalton Was
on Top Of Car and Ended Up
Beneath 1t.

The worst freight wreck that has
occurred in this city for some time
happened yesterday morning at tho
Blackwell street crossing. and that the
conductor Of the Central Vermont train,
4. J. Dalton, Is alive today to tell
the story, is a wonder
The train Of five cars was run down
from Williamstown, and while backing
in from the Wiliiamstown transfer the
two empty box cars at the head Of
the train struck d stub switch Just after
crossing the dry bridge at Blackwell
street and were thrown of the track
to the left. Both cars turned around
at right angles to the track and pitched
over the ten foot embankment behind
Milne, Clarihew & Gray's stone shed.
Conductor Dalton was standing on
top Of the second car which went over
the bank. He was thrown over the
embankment and landed directly be-
meath the ear as il pitched over the
bank. The distance which he must have
fallen was fully twenty feet and that
the car did not run over him was due
to the fact that the rear trucks did not
60 clear down the bank. When the
car stopped the front end was at the
bottom and the rear trucks resting on
the embankment. Dawson was IN the
space underneath the car. Ire was some
what shaken up, but otherwise was not
even scratched, and is about his work
in the yard today.
The first car to 90 over the bank was
thrown over on its side and both trucks
We're torn Of The other car was not
much injured Engineer Bennett was
in charge Of the engine. The two cars
uncoupled from the train as they left
the track, which was the only thing
that saved the rest Of the cars from
being pulled over the bank.
A wTeeking train was sent down this
forenoon from st. Albans and the cars
are being pulled back onto the tracks.
