tertsi1ed. Foster exhibited letters OF

love, and finally succeeded in borro%ing
SlS from Tate. He later called bis host

Distressing Accident.

Among the passengers who left WASH
ingtou this morning on the $40 electric
train was Mr.. r. II. Nef, living in that
city. When the train reached the in-
fer.ociinn OF Cameron and Columbus
streets Mr.. Nef attempted TO step from
the rear end of the motor car to the
street, but he either made misstep or
was struck by the motor car and Knock
ed down and under the latter. The car
passed over his left hip and leg, crush-
ing that portion Ct his body and part OF
the intestines into pulp, and seriously
iniuring his head.
The motor car was derailed by the
accident, and crowd Of people soon
gathered. Some time was consumed In
raising the car from the unfortunate
man. As has been stated, the coach
had been derailed and as there was no
iackscrew at hand, timber had te DO pro-
cured and used in the work. The crowd
at the scene was growing all the time
and policemen we're kept busy IN fore
ing them away from the car.
Mr.. Neff was finally taken from be-
meath the wheels and placed upon the
pavement on the ives; side of the street
and the Alexandra Hospital ambulance
summoned
The vehicle responded as soon as pos
sjple and the injured man was removed
n that institution where he was attend
ed by DR.. w. NJ. Smith. 1t was soon
seen that his death was matter OF but
q few minutes and his relatives 10 Wash
;ppton were notified. The life of the
mso was ebbing fast, and he died short
Ig after reaching the hospital, alter
which Domaine & Son took charge OF
tho remains.
The deceased was tbirty-three years
Of age. The train was in charge
of Conductor Mowbry, Motorman Groves
and Trolleyman Mason. The accident
occurred on the west side OF the track
and directly on the curve in front OF
Christ Church. Tie scene Of the ac-
oident was visited by many, although
the sight OF the blood on the rail, coooie
stones and pavement was slckenlng. Mr..
Neff's watch chain had been cut 10 pieces
by the wheels of the cars, and boys VINO
had secured particles we're exhibiting
them.
It was reported on the street that MI
Neff was killed outright by the accident,
but the facts given above are correct, ne
being alive when he reached the hospital
The deceased lived at lOlS Ninth
street northwest, and was carpenter by
trade. He leaves a widow but no
children. Mrs. Neif arrived here shortly
after her husbands death to look after
his remains which will be forwarded to
Washington by Domaine Il Son.
