The total number of those injured by the Richmond railway accident is now known to exceed fifty, and by some the number is estimated at fully seventy. Many of the sufferers proceeded to their homes. The injured include Mr Taylor, auctioneer, and Mr Pyet his clerk. Mr Dalgety, clerk, had his leg fractured ; and Mr Andrew Jack is suffering from severe injury to Ms head. Miss Berry, daughter of the ex-Promier, is suffering from a severe shock to her system ; and Councillor Cavenagh from internal injuries. Messrs Crowther and Ross are dangerously wounded, and their condition is critical. Many others are seriously injured. Received December 4th, 2.30 p.m. The Hawthorn collision has proved more serious in its effects than the accident which occurred near Jolimont in August, 1881. More fatalities, however, were caused by the latter than are likely to arise from Saturday’s disaster.
