NOTES OF THE WRECK.

In addition to settling with the in jured parties. the company will pay all doctors bills.
 The railroad officials didn't lose much time i'll getting around to make terms with the victims of Friday nights wreck, some of them being seen almost before they had time to knock the dust off themselves.
 Terrence Sullivan, an employe of the Evening Democrat, who came out of the mixup with nothing worse than a slight cut on the right side of the nose, tattered garments. and a general shaking-up, settled with the company
 Patrick Craven, who occupied the same seat with Sullivan and who got a cut on the head that required sev- eral stitches, claims that he wouldn't go through the same experience for all the money in the world. He also settled with the company.
 All day Saturday a steady stream of humanity was going towards the scene of the accident to view the wreck. Even yesterday large crowd went down, but there was very little to see as before Saturday night the greater part of the wreckage had been cleared from the tracks.
 E. G. Erickson, the fireman of the special who lost his life in the wreck, always had notion that he wanted to be railroad engineer, and short time ago applied for a posi- ton on the road. He was given a job and his first assignment was on the special. He was married but a short time. 4
 The body of Engineer Norton was removed from Mulvilles morgue Sat urday evening and was shipped to New Haven on the 6:15 D. m. train. The remains of Fireman Erickson was taken from Bergin's and removed to New Haven on the 4:i5 D. m. train Saturday. The body of Carpen- ter was shipped to New Haven at 1:O0 D .m. yesterday.
 None of those injured, with the ex ception of Fred Russell and Charles w. Champlin of New Haven. who are at the Waterbury hospital, is in q serious condition, although many ol them are still suffering from the pumping which they received. The military boys at the hospital both passed good night, but although there is no immediate danger the at tending physician would not say that the men were yet out of danger. pf yatstrAov fu other telling argument for a double track system, as with such system these head-on collisions will be re duced to a minimum. The fate oI those in the single coach attached to the special brings to mind tht Sandy Hook accident when the spe cial train coming from the Danbur, fair a few years ago figured in a head-on collision, and although the first car attached to the specia was almost demolished only one per son in the car was killed. On Sat urday not a soul in the Grays' cal was sent to eternity.
 The accident at the same point or March 31 four years ago occurred al most in the same manner. An en zine on tho way to Bridgeport wal told to be on the lookout for the reg ular. but the orders were not carrie, out, the trains crashed in much tn, same manner as on Saturday morn ling. and two men were instantl. killed, another died later from tn, result of his injuries and numbe were severely injured. Those kille, were Henry Chapman, engineer ol the engine going down. whose hom' was in New Haven. and Herbert New man of Bridgeport. fireman on tn regular train. As was the case il Saturdays wreck. both men wer' badly scalded.
