The accident occurred shortly be fore 12 o'clock lust, night. Kngineer Hicks had backed into the switch to wait for passenger train No. 33 to pass, A brakeman, it Is said, was stationed at the switch.

Engineer Rice and his fireman jumped in time, but Engineer Hicks did not. see the approach of the deadly engine and re mained at his post. With the crash of the two monsters, steam escaped In large volumes and scalded him and his fireman to death. .None of the passengers were ser iously injured, though many of them were severely shaken up.
