NEW YORK ELEVATED TRAIN WRECK
Twelve Passengers Were Killed and TWO score u
More Injured-Cause Unknown.

The first indication people on ne
sidewalk had of Inc acciden, was a
loud rumblng along the Overhead.

shower of sparks and the sound OF
splitting timbers. Suddenly the out
or guard rail of the railroad structure
gave away, a score of bodies were
hurled through space, and with a deaf
eaing crash the car fell to the street.
The car stood fairly on end. lhen
the sides gave way as if they were
made of pastebCard, belching out a
mass of humanity.
Those passengers who had not
Jumped from the platforms and WIN
dows before the plunge came were
thrown into a mass at the forward end
of the car. As the Injured, men and
women were struggling 20 free them,
selves the heavy front trucks of the
third car on the train fell almost in
their midst, as the car itself Jumped
partly off the elevated structure and
was wedged against a building at the
southeast corner of Ninth avenue and
Fifty-Third street.
Anlost every ambulance in Manhat
tan was summoned and the injured
and dead were hurried away with al
speed.
Three alarms of fire brought man!
engines to the scene. A slight flr'
caused by burning insulation wa
quickly extinguished. The flremel
then set to work chopping out tn
dead and injured. The task was NO
an easy one, as the heavy car in fal
. ing had almost completely buried pe
, destrians in its wreckage. At leas
, one was killed outright in this wa!
: while Policeman Henry Aitkens, VIII
was standing directly under the eli
vated structure, is among those mos
seriously injured.
