ouo tlmt livals the famous Woollaston dts-
astei of October 5,1578 , occuired this nftci-
noon on the suno road ( Old Colony ) , and

and sexeral moro sustained slight Iiijuiics.
The train \viecked today \vas the Woodhnll
cxpiess , w lcli Is due in Boston at 1 05 p. in
It consisted of a locomotive , bigtrago car ,
smoker , the I'ulliuiu cir Puritan und loin
ordinary coaches , heavily loaded.
The train had passed Quiney station , run
ning about ten miles nn hour , and Just beyond
President's hiUlge the engine loft the truck ,
f i om some cause at present uudotci mined , und
plunged Into an embankment twelve feet high.
The tender , b iggage ear , smokei and Pull
man p issed b } the engine and wcio stietched
along for a distance ot 100 led beside the
tiack. 'Iho foi oinos t pissciiRer roach left the

Were afteivv.uds taktn out. Iho escaping

and buried uudei the engine , the engineer
and the Pullmin car conductor , who v\eio
both finally Injuied.
In the thice ieir passenger coaches the oc
cupants received no woiso lujuiy than a
slight shaking up.
Iho Ihst p issengcr coach was the pimelpil
scene of dcith and agon } , and the oxpei-

Those seriously Injuied number thirty and
the condition of two or three is critical.
It is repo.ted that the name of one of the
unldontllicd dead is W H. Giady and two
others are Mis H. P. Johnson and hcrflflton-
) ear-old boy. His aUo icported thata niece
of Mrs. A. U.Vcllf of llartfoid Is. among the
uuidcntillcd dead.
The coals of the engine sot fire to the coach ,
but the Iho wns soon extinguished.
A number of physicians \ \ eie summoned to
tbo spot and as soon as possible ) thoao living
w ere taken f i om their positions of poul and
those most soi lotuly hint taken to the hos
pital. The dead were laid on the grass De-
uo.ith a tieoNuntil the undertakers nruved
AH that human skill could accomplish was
done to soothe tbo la-L houis of tbodj in and
quiet the pain of those suffering from burns
and wounds.
In the nftci noon the crowd became so great
about the wicelt , tcaiingininuantsof cars to
pieces und securing mementoes , that the of-
llceisvcro compelled to duvo them nvvaj and
erect guaid lopes , The goneiul Impression
seems to bo that the wreck was caused by a
spic.iding of the rails.
The most unfortunate pai ty was the family
of Oscar ronuelley Ills vv ifc , three children ,
mother and miid were in the paity. HU
mother and two children wcio killed and his
wifoso seitlTuslv Injuied that she maydiout
any moment. Ills other child ana maid aie )
both injured.
Thruo persons so far liuvo not been found ,
and five moro may die , making twontv pel
