BroadsiGc-Sixty Arc Injured.
Scores Are Killed.

4 flying express train on the Ee:dins
and Atlantic City Railroad crashed into
a West Jersey Railroad excursion train
ut the crossing of the two roads Thurs
day night. At least forty people were
killed outright and about sixty injured.
OF the killed twelve were women, twenty
four men and four children. The crash
was the most disastrous in the history of
eastern railroad traffic.
The accident was the result of col
lision between the J:4O p. II. express tram
from Philadelphia over the Reading and
Atlantic City Railroad and an excursion
of Red Men from Bridgeton, y. j., and Vi
cinity, returning from Atlantic City, over
the West Jersey Railroad, ut the crossing
of the two roads Il short distance out of
Atlantic City.
At the second signal tower the tracks of
the two roads cross diagonally. The Read
ing train WAS given the signal, but it
either failed to work or the speed of the
express WAS too great to be checked in
time. 1t caught the excursion train
broadside and piowed through it. literally
cleaving it in twain. The engine of the
Reading train was shattered to pieces.
Every CAR was Jammed to its fullest ca
pacity.
AS soon as the news reached Atlantic
City the utmost CONSERVATION prevailed.
Relief trains were dispatched to the scene,
loaded with cots and bearing staffs of
surgeons. As fast as the bodies were re-
covered they were carried into the local
hospitals and undertakers' shops. A gem
oral fro n oinrm wns soundpd and the de-
partment promptly responded and aided
in the work of digging for the victims.
The worst fears were realized as the
vigorous work of the relief gangs revealed
the awful extent of the disaster. The first
Reading relief train bore into the city
twenty-seven mangled corpses, men, wom-
en- and children. The next train, not an
hour later, carried fifteen of the manned
and wounded, and two Of these died soon
after reaching the city.

Edward Farr. engineer of the Reading
train, was killed outright, as was another
road man who rode on the engine with
him. This man saw the collision coming
and leaped from the cab an instant before
the crash. Almost at the same instant
the engine cut its way through and caught
him directly in its path. His body and
that of Farr were found under Il heap of
debris, but the engineer lay in what re-
mained of the cab and his right hand still
grasped the throttle. He had been faith
full unto death and met it at his post. The
fireman on the train had leaped few
seconds before and escaped with trifiing
injuries.

FUSION SCHEME GOES.
County Democratic Committee Re-
fuses to Uphold the City Com
mfttee's Kick.

The fusionists got together for confer
ence at the New York Life building yester-
and elected c. NJ Foote Chairman. w. E.
Gooding as secretary and F. M. Shaw. treas
urer.
The principal business of the afternoon was
the settlement of the question of campaign
management. There was considerable oppo-
sition to the original fusion scheme In which
1t was proposed to appoint committee Of
seven TO run the entire campaign.
There were several Populists present in
cluding the three chosen by the several Pop
ulist committees to compose the executive
NJ. P. Hobart.
The Democratic end of the city committee
met Friday night and formulated plan to
circumvent the proposed plan of a joint COM
mittee of seven. 1t was given to a commit
tee or hye. OF which Harry ID. Irwin was
chairman, to lay before the county commit
tee. 1t provided that each of the several
committees retain its autonomy and perform
the work usually assigned to 1t, which was
to include the raising of campaign funds
and the disbursement of the same. 1t also
provided for an advisory committee of seven.
to be appointed just the other committee
was appointed, but without the power to do
any more than suggest ways and means and
execute such particular duties might be
conferred upon the committee by the regular
committees
The committee discussed the proposition for
fully an hour. The proposition was then re-
jected and the county committee voted TO
proceed at once with the campaign, author
izing the opening Of headquarters. and with
the understanding that the city committee
was invited to have one representative on the
joint executive committee but that If it
did not care to avail itself of this invita-
ton the plan would be carried out just the
same. The matter will be reported to the
Democratic city committee, and If it does
not select a Democrat to represent it, then
the county committee will select one more
member. The third Democrat will probably
come from the judicial committee.
The members of the executive committee
of seven had a little conference after the
county committee adjourned. 1t now consists
of only five out of seven members authorized.
Michael Breslauer represents the Democrats
on the county ticket. Harry D. Stocker Jr.
represents ~the free silver Republicans, and
the three Populists are NJ. A. Barker, M. L.
