Anton Jenson Narrowly Escaped Being Killed at Me.
tuchen Yesterday---Was Struck by Train
but was not Seriously Injured---Was Dodging
Freight Trains
SUFFERED FROM SHOCK.
Hand Which Was Swinging in Front of Him
Was Hit and the Man Thrown Several
Feet-Was Badly Bruised and Shaken
up-Continued to this City Where
Wounds We're Dressed.

Anton Jensen, the State street sew
ing machine dealer, was struck by an
express train on the Pennsylvania
railroad at Metuchen yesterday after
noon about O'Clock, but escaped
with slight. injuries.
This road has four tracks. The two
outside tracks are for passengers trains
and the two inside for freight. Mr..
Jensen was on the south side and, as
is the custom of anyone who crosses
this dangerous place. he looked care
fully to ascertain is there were trains
appr oaching.
From the west there was freight
bound for New York and from the
east there was also a freight. Both
were long but the east bound train
passed first and Mr.. Jensen stepped
behind this one and waited for the
other to pass. When this had passed
he started to cross the track. One
hand was swinging III front Of him
and this was hit by the locomotive of
a west bound express which had come
up unobserved. The hand, hip and
knee were all struck but the out
stretch edwas struck first and the force
swung the mans body around and
took much of the force from the body.
To this lucky hand Mr.. Jensen proba.
bly, owes his uninjured hip and leg If
not his life. He was hurled several
feet and fell on the rock ballast of
the tracks. His chin was bruised and
his lip cut badly. The bones of the
hand and wrist may be broken. Mr..
Jensen arrived here still suffering
from the severe shock.
DR.. G. W. Tyrrell dressed the
wounds, none of which are very ser
ious. This is remarkable. There are
few such escapes from Pennsylvania
express trains.
