VOLUME 2.
EXPLOSION AT MOUNT DALLAS
Freight.train Engine Exploded,
and Four Men Instantly
Killed.

A Especial" from Bedford tc
the Philadelphia Record last Fri
day says that the boiler of loco.
motive on the Huntingdon &
Broadtop railroad exploded at
Mount Dallas at daylight that
morning, and four men were in
stantly killed.
The names Of the dead are A.
S. Berkstresser, engineer; Stan,
ton Edwards, fireman; Charles A.
Hollenshead, conductor, and Clin-
ton Ritchey, brakeman. The
killed men we're all residents of
Saxton; Eng peer Berkstresser
and Brakemai Ritchey were mar
ried-the latter only six months;
the other two men were single
but supported widowed mothers.
The bodies were terribly burn
ed and mangled.
The force of the explosion was
terrific and the people living near
Mt. Dallas rushed from their
homes to see pieces of steel and
wood and human bodies flying
through the air. The body of
Fireman Edwards was found on
the opposite side of the river,
more than 300 yards from the
wrecked engine, while his watch
was found in the township road,
800 yards away.
The bodies of the other men
were more than 100 yards away.
One arm torn from the body of
Conductor Hollingshead could not
be found, and his head was almost
entirely severed.
The scene Of the accident was
on the high embankment near the
toll gate, about halfway between
Mt. Dallas and Everett, where the
railroad is 200 feet above the pike
along the side of the mountain.
Mt. Dallas is the southern termi-
nus of the road.
The wrecked engine was pull
ing the second section of a south
bound freight, and had stopped
near the rear end of the first sec
tion. The engineer was on the
ground oiling his engine, and
near him was Conductor Hollings-
head and Brakeman Ritchey.
Edwards, the fireman, was eat
ing his breakfast in the cab of the
locomotive when, without warning
and with report like that of a
monster gun, the boiler exploded.
John Jones, hagman of the first
section, was in his caboose, near
the wrecked engine, and escaped
injury, and, with other members
of the crew, hurried to the scene
of the accident and found all the
unfortunate men of the second
section had been instantly killed.
Coroner Merrick A. Stoner was
notified, and after viewing the
bodies ordered them removed.
The cause of the explosion is a
mystery. The engine was built
10 years ago and had been on the
road three years since it was last
repaired.
This is the third accident from
weak boilers on this road, but the
first fatal one. An examination
of part of the wrecked boiler
showed that rows of rivets had
entirely rusted off. General
Manager Carl M. Gage and Mas
ter Mechanic Yohn would eX-
press no opinion as to the cause
of the explosion.
