As the gravel train was backing, none of its crew was hurt. One of the flatcars was turned over on its side, and it was under this that some of the men received their worst injuries. The ~tender of the piledriver was dumped down the bank but the roadâ€" bed was little damaged. In all about 20 of the Italians received injuries, four or five probably fatal. . An inâ€" quest will be held. The Italian colony is incensed at the action of the conâ€" ductor of the ballast train and swear to be revenged on him. The work. of relieving the injured men was greatly: facilitated by the labors of Mrs. J. D. Dietrich, Mrs. Louis Lang, Miss Dietrich, Miss Cromwell and Mrs. Isâ€" aac Wolfe.

The gravel train and the piledriver were both on the siding at Orr‘s Lake when the passenger trayn went east shortly after 10 o‘clock. The gravel train went out first and came down below Galt to get rid of the load. The piledriver left the siding a few minutes later and was working between there and Galt. About 11 o‘clock it headed for Galt, and when just north of Mi. J. D.

Galt, July 10.â€"The worst railway fatality which has occurred at or near Galt in many years happened toâ€" day near the noon hour. With a crash heard miles away, a train of empty cars backed into the huge piledriver at the dangerous curve at the Blair Road, about half a mile west of the C.P.R. station, with most disastrous results. The foreman of the gang of Italian laborers, Samuel Muma, who is section boss at Innerkip, five miles this side of Woodstock, was riding in the van when the accident occurred. He evidently jumped and one of the flat cars turned over on him. He was dead when picked up by some of the residents of the neighborhood, . who were quickly on the scene.
