sTHEET-CARs IN COLLISION.
One Runs Into the Other and the
MOtOrman is Painfully Bruised.

Motorman d. T.. Davis, of the Clay
Street Line. must certainly bear a charm
ed life. Last night he was on extra duty,
and was driving one of the new cars, No
1884, on the home run from the Main-Street
Vaudeville Park, when he came into col
lsion with Car 364, of the Main-Street
Line, driven by Motorman Johnson, and
narrowly escaped serious injuries.
a number Of cars had been massed at
the park just before the close Of the en-
tertainment, and as soon as they were
filed they started off at a pretty lively
rate in very close order Johnsons car
was running just in front Of Davis, when
at the corner Of Main and Short streets.
the former suddenly stopped TO put down
passengers. Davis says he had his cur
rent of, but the car in front stopped so
suddenly and Unexpectedly that he was
unable 10 apply his brake, and the colli-
sion was terrific. II demolished all the
irOnwork of the platform on which Davis
was standing, bending the stout rods like
whipcord, breaking down the dashboard
and completely destroying the motor and
brake-gear.
Davis stuck to his post, and how he es-
capped with no injuries more serious than
badly-bruised limbs is a miracle. He was
carried 10 CabelPs drugstore, and DIR.
Jacob MChauX was called in, and rem
dered the necessary medical assistance.
Davis was unable 10 put his right foot to
the ground. and refusing 20 go to a hospi-
tai, was taken to his home, No. 923 north
Twenty-seventh street, on the stTeet-car.
