PASSENGER RAMS FREIGHT.
Rear End Collision At Granite Hill
Saturday Evening.

1t has been said that misfortunes
saying seems to have been shown in
the case of the above accident, as it
was followed by another at about II
o'clock the same night at Granite hill.
about three miles from this city, when
the last car out from Augusta, which
leaves the city at 1890, ran into the
box car used by the Hoyt's Express
Co, as it stood on the siding.
The exact cause of the latter acct
had been sent out to bring in the two
cars which were disabled by the acct
dent at East Winthrop in the after
noon, AMI had stopped on the siding ut
Granite hill to allow the 10 o'clock car
from Winthrop to pass. While the
box car was on the siding the car from
Augusta came along in charge of Con-
ductOr Nat Carter and Motorman Fred
S'toddard SO fas as has been learned
tiit ilot'i Nil Ilol see TIE tSpItSS
car until he was close upon it and as
it was too late at that time to stop the
car it crashed into the car ahead.
The passenger car was filled with
people going to their homes in VIM
throp and other places along the line
and the collision of the two cars Great
ed for few moments the greatest con-
sternation. The force of the collision
was sufficient to drive in the drawbar
of the box car and to break the glass
at the ends of the passenger car and
scatter it in all directions. Several of
the passengers We're hit by the flying
fragments of glass and received minor
injuries on the head and hands, the
majority of those so cut being men,
and all We're shaken up. One man is
also reported to have been injured i'm
the side by being thrown against the
back of seat.
Neither car was so damaged that il
could not be operated and the trip was
completed later with no further acct
dent.

jl.red We're favorable. Mr.. Robbins had
a comfortable night Saturday, and his
condition yesterday was no worse, and
unless indications OF internal injuries
develop it is thought that he will soon
recover.
The cause of the accident, to state
the part Of the two men on car No. IL.
The car left Augusta at o'clock as a
cordine to the regulations OF the road,
the regular 5 o'clock car TO Winthrop.
The rules provide that on the arrival
of the regular car on the siding at
Island Park, it shall wait until the
special following shall also arrive on
the siding, after which it resumes it's
trip toward Winthrop. When the cars
arrived at the siding Saturday after
noon the Hoyt's express car and a pas
scnGer car We're on the main line 1t
was here that the mistake is said to
have been made. the men on No. Is
thinking that the passenger car on the
main line was the regular 5 o'clock
from Winthrop. Accordingly after the
car which they had followed from
Augusta resumed its trip toward Win
throp they started for the sub-sta ton
siding to repair their trolley, and in
doing SO came into collision with the
incoming car as above stated.
Mr.. Robbins, the motorman of car
No. &c, is one of the most careful and
trusted employees of the company, and
many expressions Of regret are heard
that he should be injured. Mrs Bond
one of the passengers who was injured
said yesterday that he brought his car
Ito n standstill and on seeing that n
collision was inevitable, spread out his
arms as if to shield the passengers be-
hind him. And a,gentleman who was
standing near him when the surgeons
were administering to him, and while
he was in 4 semi-unconsciOus condi-
ton, heard him ask: rs everybody
else all right?" and when assured that
they were, he seemed relieved and MUIR
INJURED: Then it's all right"
