Tine first car coming from New Britain, stopped at the corner of East street al lo:i0 o'clock. letting off some ras- sengers. and had attained a speed Of about 1@ miles an hour again when it suddenly jumped the track, swung across tho road, and side swipod telephone pole on the right side Of the road.
 There were only seven or eight passengers on the trolley, which was a one man car operated by Edward Bunncl. anI none of them were hurt The step Of the car was torn off as it scraped the pole. while the impact snapped the telephone wire and disrupted service. The accident was laid 10 stones on the rail. The street is very bad al this point. being covered with loose stones which arr scattered about as automohilrs pass. and 1t is though, that one of these was thrown on 70 the track ln this manner, heinz just enough to d. rail the almost empty car
