Suction Blamed for Accident.

A queer Incident occurred a few days ago as the Empire State Express wm leaving Syracuse for Buffalo. A piece of coal suddenly hurtled through the window of a coach and the glass in the double window was shattered in thousands of pieces. One passenger had his wrist so badly cut that it took an hour to check the flow of blood. An eastbound passenger train was passing when the piece of coal crashed through the window, and it la believed that it was hurled from its tender by* the suction of the two rapidly moving trains.
