KILLED by AN ENGINE.

J. r. Finch, car inspector for the
Florida East Coast Railway, met a
tragic death by being run over by a To-
connective beneath the shed at the Jack
sonville union station Saturday night.
Mr.. Finch was crossing the East Coast
track, just to the east of the shed, and
did not notice a switch engine which
was rapidly backing toward the shed
He was violently struck and thrown to
the track, being showed ahead of the
engine for a distance OF about one
hundred yards before the engineer
knew he was there. His screams OF
agony attracted the attention of the
trainmen about the shed, and they
waved the engine down. Mr.. Finch
was gathered up and taken to the bag
gageroom and placed on a large truck
where he soon expired.

escape, but were overcome before they
could reach the exit A torch used by the
men was left behind, and when the gas
reached it a terrific explosion occurred.
