SUPERINTENDENT WILCOX KILLED. Miraculous Escape of Many of the Passengers. LIST OF THE VICTIMS. A Night Visit to the Wreck—Statemonts of the Conductor and Station Master— The Coroner’s Inquest. New Haven, Conn., June 6, 1874, The greatest excitement prevailed in the city this morning, caused by the announcement that a train of six cars had been thrown trom the track at Stony Creek, distant about eleven miles trom New Haven, and that a large number of persons, Superintendent Wilcox ainong the number, had been killed. The telegraph ofice was at once be- sieged ior particulars of the affair, and later tt Was ascertained that the report, so far as Mr. Wil- cox was concerned, was true,‘and that serious in- jury to body and limbs of alarge number ot passen- gers had taken place, President Wilham D. Bishop and Superintendent Reed, of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad were fortunately in the city at the time the despatch was received and they at nce sent a wrecking train with men and tools to the scene, Mr, Reed accompany ing to see that all was done promptly, Arrived at Stony Creek they found a scene oi destraction which pen 1s hardly adequate to describe, A locomotive was standing on the track, and by the side of the track near it, fifteen feet below, were a baggage and smoking car and four passenger cars, LITERALLY TORN IN PIECES, and large numbers of men, women and children striving in the vain attempt to free themselves Jrom the débris, The work of clearing away the wreck was begun without delay, and seventy-five persons, with broken legs, arms, ribs, and all ter- ribly bruised, were taken to the depot at Cedar Creek, : Superintendent Wilcox, an efficient railroad man, highly esteemed socially in this city, was in- stantly killed. He was standing on the baggage car at the time of the accident, lost his balance, fell, and the car fell upon fim, killing him tn- stantly. THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT came from a misplaced switch. Passenger cars had been left at Stony Creek on Saturday, and this train, bound for New Haven from New London, and due here at thirty-flve minutes past seven, stopped at Stony Creek to receive passengers and take these cars. It will be understood that the Shore Line road has but one track. The cars stood on a turnout, and the train backed down to the cars, Switchman Beach had attended to his duty and when the tran moved on the forward truck of the last car struck the end of a worn rail next the end of the switch rail, causing the switch to open again. In a moment the wheels of the car, tor- ward and back, were running on the ground, striking the wooden ties with force as the speed of the train increased. The train ran in this way @ distance of 150 feet, when @ trestle bridge, ap- proached by a sharp curve, was reached. This curve caused the hinder car to cant to one side, roll from the track and fali fifteen feet to the marsh below. The second followed ana so on until six cars were detached from the locomotive, which remained on the track uninjured. A CORONER'S INQUEST. Judge Harrison, of Guilford, arrived at Stony Creek, at ten o’clock, and, in the capacity of Coroner, summed a jury of inquest, who inquired into the cause of the accident and the death of Mr. Wilcox. They rendered a verdict in accordance with the facts, and_censured Mr. Beach, the switch- man, for not attending more carefully to his duties, Mr. Wilcox’s remains were taken to Madison, where they will be interred. For the space of five hours no trains could pass the scene of the accident as the tender of the lo- comotive, one of the heaviest on the road, had been thrown from the track and hungto the bridge, in part supported by the iron coupler. It was with difculty that this ponderous mass of iron could be lifted back into position, owing to the narrowness of the bridge. This afternoon, how- ever, all trains are running regularly again, the Boston express being only about fifteen minutes behind time, THE KILLED AND WOUNDED.

Stony Creex, Conn., July 5, 1874, No more complete ruin of a railroad train could be imagined than that now lying on the marshes of Stony Creek. Your reporter has just returned | from the spot, and by the aid of lanterns, carried by willing hands, he was enabled to see this “wreck of matter.” Indeed it seemed fitting that silence and the sombre mantle of night should | cover the tragic prologue of the day, You will have already received the details of the loss of life and the many casualties attendant upon this last railroad blunder, but nothing can describe the utter destruction of the train, The cars lie in all forms, some without tracks, others stove in, splintered with great gaping doors where windows once were and iron work piercing battered floors like spears. How the human freight ever escaped with ‘but sach a trifling record of “killed” is the greatest mystery, but the number of wounded, | bruised and bleeding in New Haven to-night and in the farm houses surrounding Clinton, Madison and Guilford may be set down as nearly 200, As the | story of the disaster, however, will be told in another place [can oniy now give the HERALD some particulars which may not have reached you by other channels. Upon arriying in New Haven this evening Lsought Captain Rylands, the con- ductor of the ill-fated train, He gave me his MEAGRE BUT TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE of that sudden dash irom the track. He said:—‘‘I Was sitting in the smoking car, when I felta strange motion, and, as I arose and looked back, 1 | discovered the people in confusion, Like a fash I saw the last car go over, I sprang for the door; but I could only grasp the seat, and soon we were | all pell mell turned over on the marsh, As soon | as I could scramble out, a littie bruised, put not | much hurt, saw the awful sight of the maimea | and bleeding, and poor Wilcox dead.”” Upon asking him for an opinion as to the cause | of the accident, he sald he could not give any; that he supposed the Coroner’s inquest had set- tled that. Iasked the baggage master, Edward Barrows, | who was on the train, how he escaped, He re- plied, “BY A MIRACLE. I was standing by Mr. Wilcox, our superintendent, when Isaw him jump for the bell rope and he shouted to me ‘the last car's off.’ Lsaw them going and made a dash .Or the brakes. I had just reached the tron railings when the car turned over, but it landed me on my feetin the marsh a littie shaken, bat not hurt. Wilcox had reached the door and, | think, attempted to jump, but the car crushed him." Chauncey McCreary is a brakeman on the train and jumped like the baggage master and was not hurt. New Haven was full of the sufferers and the city was in a state of feverish excitement, but my duties called me to Stony Creek, especially as I thought it best to see William Beach, the raiiroad agent and station master there, who is the man charged by the Coroner's jury with being the CAUSE OF THIS SORROW in so many homes. I found him, and give nis story in his own words, Iwill premise by saying that | Beach isan American, of perhaps forty years of age, married, with one child. He looks like a tem- perate man, and has a snug little bouse, in which he resides, opposite to the railway office. Beach Said :— STORY OF THE STATION MASTER. “T have been in the employ of the company fpr ten years and at this place four years. Iam a tee- totaler, a temperance man. I attend to the duties ofa station master. Ican telegraph a little, and do so between the different points. This morning our superintendent, Wilcox, jumped off the train and said, ‘Beach go down to the switch.’ I jumped on the cars and rode down to the Bridge, about 1,500 feet, 1 suppose, to the lower switch house. I went in and turned the switch so as | to let the train back up on the siding to take on two cars laying there. Then the train moved on and the first tuing I heard a sort of jingling noise. I looked out and saw the hind car tumbling into the marsh. Then one alter the other went down, My switch must have been right or Tcouldn’t get out of my switch house. Then the brakeman, Ed, Barrows, came running back and halloed, ‘Go back; telegraph vo New Haven for wreckers.’ 1 went back and telegraphed and that’s all | know about it and is what I testified to beiore the Coro- | ner's jury to-day.’ “Why did they render a verdict against you ¥ T asked. “[ don’t know,” he replied. ‘The engineer and some of the passengers testified | suppose against me.'? “Has any action been taken yet in the matter?” | “None that I know of,” replied Beach, “Lf shall | not run away.” Such is the story gathered from the lips of the actors in the sad drama. This little hamlet bas been FILLED WITH THE SUFFERERS moved to their homes at Branford, Guilford and | New Haven, while there is mourning in Madison and along the line of the Shore road, | tor Wilcox, Who was much esteemed. The trains | are running regularly to-night, as Mr. John Fuller, the Supervisor of Bridges, has had a wrecking | train at Stony Creek all day, but the battered | and splintered cars lie transversely in the morass and will have to be broken up for kindling wood or old tron. THE FEELING IN NEW HAVEN. New Haven, Conn., July 6—10:45 P. M. Consideravie excitement prevails in this clty to- night in consequence of the disaster ; but the feel- ing is one of great thankfulness at the miraculous | escape of solarge a number of passengers. After ascertaining the names of the wounded 4 HERALD reporter visited, as far as was possible, those in the city and discovered in every instance that all were more frightened than hurt and were doing well. No further deaths are likely to occur from the catastrophe. Nearly allthe New Haven pas- ee t all day long, but they have nearly all been re- | i 7 and strong one, sustained little damage, althougts turning COMPLETELY BOTTOM UP. Of one party, consisting of S. V. Taft, wife, twa daugaters, son-in-law and grandchild, no one waa more seriously hurt than by bruised arms and backs, and yet the car in which they were seated turned a complete somersault. H. R. Bradiey, of New Haven, is the most seriously injured, and haa been carried to Milford, and yet his wounds are not considered of a dangerous Character. Wiliam Kimberly ana wife were badly cut about the heaa, but are doing well. THE GRAND STREET BURGLARY, James Murtha allas Spencer was arrested tasv night by Captain Clinchy and Detective Mitchelt aud locked up in the Fourteenth precinct station house, The prisoner is charged with being impH- cated in the attempted burglary on the premises of Mr. Feinstien, in Grand street, on the 28th of Jane, and with being the one of the party that held the boy down by the throat while his com~ panions were packing up the stock of the store geeperatory to carrying tt off. Murtha was found by Detective Mitchell ina lager beer saloon in the corner of Broome and Elm streets. He was sur- rounded by a number of friends, and reiused to ac company the detective. The refusal brought the detective’s hand upon his shoulder, and Murtha promptly drew a large jackkniie to defend himself. Tne detective made & pull at him, and Murtha drew ba his arm to plunge the knife into the detective’s stomach, When Captain Chochy and Roundsman Byrnes rushed inv the place and caught the arm. Martha Was secured and conveyed to the station house, Young Feinstein, who had been so terribly abused by the thieves on the day o! the attempted rov. bery, was sent Jorand he immediately identified Murtha as one of the men, On the Way to the station the prisoner told the detective he would have died rather than be taken, and if the assist ance had not come just when it did one of them, either he or the detective, should have been killed. He had been but a few weeks in town, being one of the pack liberated recently rom Sing Sing, A DETERMINED THIEF, He Attempts to Steal a Trunk and Fractures a Skull. John McCarthy, @ notorious thief and rumam living at No. 79 James Street, drove down to the pier at the foot of West Seventeenth street about balf-past nine o’clock last evening in an expresa wagon, and, going on board the bark Octavio, which was lying at that point, seized a sailor's trunk and started off with it. Wilham Benson, the mate of the vessel, interfered and demanded to know by what right he (McCarthy) took the trunk. McCarthy gave him no satisfaction, but threw the trunk into his wagon and was about to drive off, when Benson -caught hold of him and dragged him down. A scuille ensued, durin white Mcvarthy caught up a large piece of ha coal and struck Benson on the head, Jracturing his skull, MeOarthy then jumped on his wagon and drove off, closely pursued by Captain McBride, of the Octavio, Who had him arrested by an officer at the corner of Seventh avenue and Seventeenth street. Benson was removed to Bellevue Hos- pital in an ambulance. His injuries are considered very serious. THE MYSTERIOUS SHOT. The mystery surrounding the shooting of the un- known man at the corner of Church and Rector streets on the afternoon of the 4th inst. bids fair to be speedily dispelled, in the opinion of Captain Lowery, in whose precinct the tragedy occurred, who stated to a HERALD reporter last evening his confident belief that he had at last procured sum- cient circumstantial evidence to implicate a young German by the name of John Pepper, aged sixteen years, and a barkeeper in a saloon on Chambera Street, near the corner of Chul The Captain, who personally visited the saloon im question, tound there a board perforated by nna and concealed bebind the bar was @ smal Smith & Wesson seven chamber pistol, of which be took possession. Subsequently he suc- cesded in finding two persons, Jonn McMahon, a boy. fliteen years of age, residing at No. 4 Rector street, and 4 woman, Mrs. Denning, living at No. 7 the same street, who will testily at the Coroner's inquest to-morrow that they saw the prisoner, Join Pepper, shooting of a pistol, between two and @ quarter past two P. M., im front of the | saloon in which he was working. The prisoner admitted, on arrest, he Nad fired several shots in the saloon at the board avove mentioned, but denies having fired in the street. The Captain nas carefully examined the puilet extracted from the heart of the deceased, and unhesitatingly pronounces it a Smith & Wesson builet, of the size ordinarily used tn pistois of the la of that which the prisoner confesses he | tired. THE KIPP SHOOTING ACCIDENT. Fred Kipp, the boy who accidentally shot ane kilied the son of William S. Anderson, at Passaic, on Saturday, fled in affright immediately after the occurrence and could not be found unti! on Sun day evening he was evertaken at Montclair. The’ lad seems to be utterly overcome with remors¢ and refuses to ve comiorted. THE PENALTY OF CARELESSNESS. Richard Warren, aged about fifteen, living tm River street, Paterson, while handling a pistol about six o'clock last evening, accidentally shot himself through the bowels, sustaining injuries which will without doubt prove fatal, aithough he was still alive at the time our report closed. MORE KEROSENE FOLLY.: Miss Josephine Devine, a French girl, about twenty-two years old, living at No. 131 Beach street, Paterson, yesterday noon tried the old ex- periment of pouring kerosene oil on the kitchen fire to make it burn more briskly. The can at onca exploded, and instantaneously the girl’s clothi was enveloped In flames. Her screams brought the neighbors to her relief, and, pouring water over her, they finally succeeded in quenching the fire. The unfortunate girl was en burned from her waist down, and the flesh peeled of her feet. mM great masses. She was removed to the Sisters’ Hospital, and there are hardly apy hopes of her recovery.
