and for a time it, was feared that the the
conilagration would become general. to
Through t0b presence of mind of Con- roa
ductor W, H. Evans, (of whom the i
passengers speak in the highest terms,) tle
aided by Messrs. W. D. Peck, J. WV. tite
Perkins and others, the conductor's and ho
the passenger's conches were uncoupled Sit
and run back-thus preventing a fearful tha
loss of life. An attempt was made to the
save the baggage, by smashing in the the0
car with coupling pins-the only imple. fori
ments obtainablo-which was partially ty.
successful, and a number of triks were I.
reBcued; but a majority of the pagsn- go
gers lost their baggage. The mails mnt
were saved. The express messenger, to
Mr. Thomas H1. Svinmes, worked ener-- exl
getically, and succeeded in saving all tal
his money packages, with the exception go
of $140 ; but his freight was all lost. chi
