Three or four other open carriages fell in line immediately behind the landau in which the president rode with Sec retary Cortelyou and Governor Crane. Secret Service Agent Craig, who throughout the New England tour has been almost constantly at the oresi- dents elbow, was an the drivers box beside Coachman Pratt. Out through South street is broad, smooth high way. The tracks of the Pittstield Elec- tric Street Railway are laid in the cen ter of the road with ample room for teams on each side and scores of Vehi- cles of every description followed along this road behind the presidents party. Shortly after Ee left the park an cleo tric which had been filled with pas sengers at that point started toward Lenox we'll behind the procession. It passed all of the teams and about a mile and a half out of the city at the beginning Of Howard Hill was nearly up to the presidents carriage which was travelling on the west side of the highway. Just at the foot of Howard Hill the road bends little and teams are compelled to cross the street rail- way track to the east side. The road then continues at one side of the street instead of in the center. Just at this point the upgrade of the hill begins and but a short distance behind the cross ing there is a narrow bridge spanning a small brook. The trolley car ap- preached the roal crossing under good head of speed with gong changing just as the driver of the presidents carriage turned his leaders to cross the track
 On each side of the chief executives carriage rode two mounted troo5ers of the local cavalry company and the horsemen on the leet of the landau had turned onto the track with the trolley car immediately behind them, though some yards distant.

A Later Acc0 nut.

Pittsfeld, Mass, Sept 3.-The presi- dent of the United States escaped a tragic death by only few feet in a collision between his carriage and an electric street car in this city to-day, while one of bis most trusted guards, Secret Service Agent William Craig, was instantly killed and David J. Pratt, of Dalton, who was guiding the horses attached to the vehicle was seriously injured. President Roosevelt himself was badly shaken up but received only a slight facial bruise. Secretary Cor telyou, who occupied a seat directly op- posite the chief executive in the landau sustained minor wound in the back of the head, and Governor Crane, who sat beside the president extricated himself from the wreck practically without a scratch. The carriage was demolished by the impact of the rapidly moving car and the wheel horse on the side nearest the car was killed outright. The crew and passengers of the car escaped injury.
 The president and party were driving from this city to LenoX through South street one of the principal thorough fares of Pittsfield, which was lined with cheering people and the catastrophe occurred in the plain view of hundreds whose happiness at the advent of the nations chief executive was suddenly turned to poignant grief.
 Thousands had poured into the city in the early morning from the nearby country to see and hear the president and his address at the city park had been loudly cl1eered. At the conclusion of the exercises he wished to make a brief call on former United States Sen ator Henry L. Dawes, whose house in Elm street is but a short distance from the park. The presidents carriage in which he had ridden in from Governor Cranes home at Dalton, was according ly driven to the Dawes residence and carriages containing a number Of other gentlemen in the party followed. Pres ident Roosevelts call was a short one and then carriages returned to the city square. After few moments delay the journey toward Lenox was began. Meanwhile the mounted escort of police

THE PRESIDENTS VERSION.
His Account of she AccIdent-Praisef for
 Craig.


 Stockbridge, Mass, Sept. 3.-President Roosevelt arrived in Stockbridge short ly before twelve o'clock. having driven leisurely across the country from LenoX. The people had turned out to give him welcome. but the news of the accident had preceded him. His face was badly swollen, and he was no doubt suffering pain, but, not to disap- point the crowd. many of whom had driven some distance to see him. he stopped just long enough to say few words. He spoke as follows:
 T presume you have heard that our party has met with an accident. in which one man was killed. Therefore, I shall not address you beyond thank ing you for your kind reception and re- quest that you make no applause or demonstration of any kind"
 The president went immediately to his train, which left as soon as he got aboard.
 The president was calm and collected, and deplored the death of Craig. He was the most faithful man I ever knew" said he: my children wor- shipped him."
 When Craig saw the imoending dan ger, and that a collision could not be averted he was heard to say, "Oh. my God" and then he was hurled through the air. and fell under the car wheels, his head and body being mutilated be- yond recognition. On the right of him was the driver, who was thrown 8 dls- rance of twenty-five feet His injuries were such that he fingered but for a short time The president asked the motorman, "Why were you running your car like tfat?" which brought only the response, Because I had the right of way"
 The president said that when he saw the car coming at such terrific speed he felt that all in the carriage would sure Iy be killed. Governor Crane suggested that the best thing for him to do would be to go to his train at once. Another l carriage was procured and in company | with Governor Crane, Secretary Cor | telyou, and Representative Lawrence, 1 the start was made for Lenox. By the | time the president reached there the people of the town were in 8 state of consternation.
 | The swelling on the presidents face | was getting greater. He assured the l people that he was not badly hurt, but requested them not to applaud.

Caldwell Defeated Freeman Last Night
 Amateur Events.
 The finish of the second heat of the notor-paced match race between How ard B. Freeman. of Portland, Oregon, and Harry Caldwell, the Manchester Giant. at the Coliseum last night, was one of the most exciting of the season. The race had been fairly even up to the ninth mile, with the odds slightly in favor of Caldwell, when the rear tire of Freeman's motor was punctured and that rider was compelled to ride along unpaced. Caldwell then shot ahead and gained lap and half, when the tire on CaIdwelrs own wheel went fiat and he was compelled to drop his pace and shift to another wheel He picked up the first which he could find and that happened to be Freemans extra, to be used in case of an accident. During this operation Freeman kept on riding. still unpaced, and made up one lap. Caldwell, on the new wheel, started out at 8 terrific rate and held his place, about half lap ahead, until the finish ,, This gave him the race, as the first heat had been won by about the same distance.
 The one-mile handicap and the i've mile open, amateur, the other numbers on the programme, were very good and exciting at times. It was the intention to have a motor race, but two of the machines were disabled and an exhibi- tion mile was given by one, the time being 1:2S 3-5. The summaries:
