Ulerich was cut about the head pret-

Ulerich was brought to his home in
Cambridge City and Singhurst to this

number of other passengers were bad

Motorman Niles, of Greenfield, was
in charge of the limited and from the
statement of local traction men last
night, he is to blame for the accident.
The local car was coming east and
was in the act of taking the siding at
Straughn when struck. According
to orders given to all motormen by
the l. & E. Niles should have had his
car under control when passing an
other car, which is going into a siding.
This he apparently did not have and
the accident resulted.
The front end of the limited car
was badly splintered by the impact
and one side of the local was broken
in, and it's windows shattered. The
wreckage was not cleared last night
and it was necessary to transfer
around the wreck, delaying all cars. 1t
