HOW HAS HE KILLEDS
The Mangled BODY OF an Oiler Found Under
I.nid-up Trolley Car.

The Mangled BODY OF an OiIer Found Under
- I.nid-up Trolley Car.
Arthur Rodgers. aged 20 years. OF 149 Con-
tre street. an oiler employed at the Third
avenue and Twenty NTH street station of the
Brooklyn City Railroad Company. was found
dead and mangled on the track few yards
from the car house late Wednesday night. The
body was covered with blood and mud and the
skull was fractured. When last seen alive,
about an hour before. he had an oil can in his
hand. 1t Is supposed that he went into the
box under the track 70 oil the wheels OF troll
lion about that time and had been laid up ior
the night. This car WAS standing a couple Of
yards away from where the body was found
This presumption is that the electric current
had not been shut of from the car and that it
started while he was engaged in oilinR the
wheels. causing his head to be caught in the
gear and dragging him under 1t as long as the
momentum lasted. There is another theory
that he may have received an electric shock
before being crushed to death.
