KILLED ON THE RAILS.
Meta Is Supposed to Have Jumped
OF the Train,

Robert Metz, twenty-seven years old,
of Elizabethport, was struck last night
at $50 by an eastbound passenger train
at the foot of Danforth avenue on the
Central Railroad in front of the station
and instantly killed.
How the man was struck is a mystery
to those who saw the train go through.
No one was seen on the tracks few
minutes before the train passed. 1t is
supposed the man either fell off or tried
to jump as the train passed the station.
After the express went through two
men found him dead on the eastbound
track.
He was 5 feet 8 inches tall, and wore
a black diagonal suit. One railroad key,
a railroad pass No. 8, two Yale keys and
broken nickeled watch were found.
The body was taken to Speer's morgue.
