ACCIDENTS & FATALITIES
• FATAL FALL FROM A TRAIN. (Per Press Association.) Auckland, June 9. A young man, James Mallin,, who was picked up unconscious, beside the Onehunga railway line at Penrose on Monday night, arid taken to the Auckland Hospital, died early this morning. So far inquiries have failed to elicit any explanation of how Mallin came to fall from the train. He and a companion, Murdoch McLeod, of Onehunga, were found beside the line, both injured. McLeod's injuries wore much less serious than those of Mallin, whose skull was fractured. McLeod is now an out-patient of the hospital. Beyond the statement that they were standing on the carriage platform, and fell off the train, no explanation has been given of the accident.
