Atlantic City, N. J. - a railroad

bridge over the Thoroughfare and be-
fore any one could get out they were
hurled to a watery grave. The tres
tie is about Is feet above the water
and the drop to the water required
several seconds, giving time for the
passengers, men, women and children

Forty-four bodies were recovered up

wrecking train is now at work trying to
hoist the submerged cars from the

be entombed. The accident was due
to a rail turning in 1t appears
that the rail which was an outside one
on the right hand side coming down
must have been out of plumb about an
eighth of an inch. The sharp flange
of the electric train caught this and
twisted it inwards. Had it spread in
stead Of twisting inwards the accident
never would have happened. This
twist threw the first car off the track
and into the water. The result was
that the second and third cars were
dragged with it and while the third
car was descending, the rear portion
struck a piece of the abutment. hung
for short time and then slid into the
water
A number of men and a few women
leaped out of windows and the rear
door either into the water or caught

stated that fully 80 to 100 passengers
