picking coal at noon to-day on the track
of the .Lackawanna Railroad. at the
New street crossing. two women fell
under the wheels of westbound coal
train and were almost cut to pieces.
One OF them. Mrs. Mary McGlnness,
thirty-five years old. Of III Marshall
street, is still alive at st. Joseph's Hos
pital. but her death is momentarily ex-
pected.. Her companion, Mrs. Farax
Haggerty, much older woman, was
literally crushed to a pulp.
Al the place where the accident oc-
Cured the road takes a sharp curve,
SO that train going in either direction
cannot be seen until 1t is within 100 feet
Of the crossing.
The women were on the east-bound
track when they were warned of the ap-
proach Of coal train. To escape It
they crossed to the other track, when an
other train appeared coming from the op-
posite direction. a..
Mrs. McGinness tried to pull her COM
panion out Of danger, but Mrs. Haggerty
seemed paralyzed with fear and stood
still. trembling from head to foot.

other instant and they were beneath the
wheels Of .nc heavily laden cars.

brought to a standstill. The two man.
gled forms were lifted out and laid beside
the road bed. Mrs. McGinness was still
alive and moaning feeoly. Her compan.
ion, though had beea instantly killed.
Ambulances were called and Mrs. Nc.
Ginness was taken to st. Joseph's Hos.
pital. where her injuries were pro.
nounced fatal. The body Of Mrs. Hag
gerty was taken to her late residence

No blame attaches to the Railroad
Company because Of the accident. 1t wa.

woman was so overcome with terror
that she was unable to help herself. A
