Fraghtful Accident.

The residents of Riverside were shocked
on Thursday at frightful accident which
resulted in the death of four persons.
Frederick Yorgi was a fish merchant
On Thursday afternoon he left home tC
deliver some fish. In the wagon with hin
were his three children, whose ages ranged
from four to seven years. They had com.
pleted their errand and were on their way
home. Near Taubels factory Yorgi at.
tempted to cross the railroad track.
passenger train was approaching, but the
man thought he could get over. He had
misjudged the pace at which the train was
coming and was caught on the track. In
moment his wagon was reduced to kin
ding wood and he and his children were
killed. The unfortunate people were
thrown on the track directly in front of a
freight train that was approaching from
an opposite direction
The wife of the unfortunate man was
making some purchases in store near
where the accident occurred. When she
heard that something had happened she
went to the door to discover what was the
matter. Some one who either did not know
her or did not recognize her, gave the
news abruptly. The shock to the poor
woman was great and she was almost fran
tic when she reached the place where her
loved ones were The one act had taken
her entire family save one boy who had
preferred to go after cAestnuts rather than
accompany his father on the fatal ride.
Coroner Wells took charge of the case
and held an inquest. A large number of
witnesses were examined. Among them
Benjamin Jobes, engineer of the train
He said he noticed the wagon and had
blown his whistle, but the driver failed to
notice the signals. The horse reached the
middle of the track and then stopped
The air brakes were applied hard, but it
was impossible to stop the train.
The jury rendered verdict holding the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company respon-
sible for the deaths by allowing two trains
to pass on grade crossing at the same
time
The funerals of Fred derrick Yorgi and
his three little girls, took place Saturday
from the undertaker's establishment at
Riverside, and were largely attended.
There was continuous jam of people
from the hour the doors were thrown open
to the public until they were closed. The
funeral party left the house at P. NJ,
and was in charge of the l. 0. NJ of which
the father was a member.
The three little girls were carried and
looked after by twenty four girls. The
widow, who has been almost frantic ever
since the accident, controlled herself fair
ly we'll until the services were over, when
she became wild with grief, and had to be
almost carried to the carriage in waiting
outside the cemetery.
