CAR JUMPED TRACK.
Passengers for Electric Park Were
 Shaken Up.

Shaken Up.
 Street car No. 51 of the Montgomery Street Railway. in charge of Conductor Newman while running at a moderate rate of speed about o'clock yesterday morning near Electric Park, jumped the track with such suddenness and force that 1t threw several of the pas sengers from the car to the ground.
 Had the car turned over. say some of the passengers, they would have been crushed. The car was running along straight track which has recently been built on the line. and the acci- dent was wholly unexpected both by car crew and passengers.
 Several of the passengers sustained scratches and bruises in being thrown from the car, though no one was seri- ously injured. One mans straw hat was crushed almost to pieces by the contact with the ground as he landed on his shoulders and head. He would not disclose his name. Other passen- gers suffered sprains and bruises, no one was hurt seriously enough for the summons of a surgeon. The wreck is ascribed to a spreading rail.
