Passengers in "a Panic on the Brook
I'm E.IeNntcd Rnad.

NEW YORK. Nov. 5.-Forty passengers
made hurried exit from a burning car on
the brooklyn elevated railroad at Flatbush
Avenue and Livingston Street late yester-
day afternoon. The flames burst out on
the rear platform Of motor car No 4o5,
which was drawing three other cars-Nos.
a., IsI and 157-to Bay Ridge.
The passengers became pauic-stricken,
and tba. no enc was hurt may be credited
10 the presence of mind of two Of their
number. AS il was, the only damage was

woodwork within destroyed.

about 40. The motorman was George
Hcilander lie had difficulty in starting
the train and before Bridge Street was
reached he found that there was something
wrong When leaving Bridge Street there
was q fash as if u fuse had blown out and
the passengers, Of whom there were about
a dozen women and several children, be
came somewhat frightened.
After the train left the Fulton Street
station the electrical equipment Of the
motor car began to burn, and small putts
OF smoke were seen coming from under

passengers. Conductor Green sgnaled
HolIender TO hurry to the next station, at

mediately a sheet of flame shot up from
under the rear platform between cars Nos.
4C5 and 427.
Green and the passengers on the plat
forms ran into the body of the car. I'M
mediateiy there was a panic, as the whole
rear OF car No. 405 burst into flame Women
screamed and some sprang 10 the windows.
But most of the passengers crowded 10 the
front OF the car and became jammed there.
Thomas Spivur, of 793 Third Avenue,
and John Russell. of Twenty-seventh Street
South Brooklyn, succeeded in getting IN
front of the throng and barring the door,
at the same time entreating their fellow
passengers to be calm, warning them that
IL there was a rush the women and children
might be forced of the fCOtpaths at the
side of the track.
The men in the front became quieter and
the women and children were helped down
to the footpaths, up which they walked to
the Flatbush Avenue station, about three
blocks away, the men following. One
woman tainted and was carried back to
one Of the cars by two passengers.
An alarm Of fire was sent in from the
box on the corner Of Flatbush and Lafay-
ette Avenues by a man who saw the blaze
from the street. The firemen fought the
fire from ladders erected alongside OF the
elevated structure and soon had it eXtin-
guished. During the blaze a piece Of the
metal controller on the rear of the car be
came detached, and, falling on the third
rail. caused a great shower of electric
sparks. The hTemen had to work very
carefully, as there was danger from fall
ing pieces Of the electrical apparatus. One
OF the electrical engineers said that the
fire was caused by a defective electric wire
coming in contact with the metal heater

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Nov. 5.-The
wreck of the Spanish cruiser Cristo-
bal Colon was the scene of a second sea
fight last Tuesday, when band OF wreck
ers attempted to board the vessel in Op-

the second crowd approached the Colon in

shots were exchanged. Two men were
slightly wounded. The aggressors were Ie-

The Colon, according to reports received
here, shows no hits by the vessels Of Ad-

her ashore undamaged, their object being
TO destroy her and at the same time IA
cilitate their own escape 10 the shore. The
wreckers laugh at Lieutenant HobzOn's 5
statement that she was irraparably dam

good shape with the proper appliances II

BoYCorTED BY THE PRESS.
Newspaper Men Ignore an Elaborate
Lawyers Banquet.

ELMIRA, n. Y, Nov. 5.-Members Of the
Chemung County Bar are much wrought
up over the action of the local press on
Friday, and it is the one subject Of COM
ment on the streets and in the clubs.
An elaborate complimentary banquet was
rendered TO Justice Walter Lloyd Smith
Thursday night in honor of his promotion
10 the appellate bench. Seventy lawyers
and nearly twenty appellate division and
Court of Appeals judges Of two States sat
down.
An attorney named Herendeen, who was
placed in charge of the press arrangements,
aroused the Indignation of the newspaper
men when he said they could not expect
to be in the same room with or look upon
such dignitaries. He would allow them to
sit in an adjacent ante-roOm and peek
through the door.
The result was that no newspaper man
attended Champagne and brilliant Oratory
there were in abundance, but to date not
a single word in reference to the banquet
has appeared in any of the five local papers.
An editorial indignation meeting is respon-
sible for the banquet boycott.
