TROLLEY CAR
HIT A TRAIN.
Staten Island Passengers Panic
Stricken in Peculiar Accident
at Crossing Near Clifton.

TOTTENVILLE, July ia
crowded trolley a rammed the. side
of a flying train on the Staten Islane
Rapid Transit Railroad near Clifton,
S. l., at $50 O'Clock last night. The
lives of many passengers were men
aced. A huge hole was torn in the
side of the fourth car of the train
and all of the windows were smashed.
1t was only the bravery of a dozen
men on the trolley car that prevented
a disaster. The trolley car was d.
rectly in the path of the train when
the electric power gave out. The
motorman and conductor realizing
the danger, called upon the male pas
sengers to assist them in pushing the
trolley out of the way.
There was little time to spare as
the headlight of the engine could al
ready be seen. BY prodigious efforts
the men succeeded in showing the
car clear of the railroad tracks. In
his haste the motorman had neglect
ed to turn off the power in the con-
trolling box. 1t was due to this that
the accident occurred. Then, as sud
denly as 1t had gone, the power re-
turned and the trolley car darted for
ward at top speed. 1t struck the
fourth car toward the forward end
and ripped the side out for a dozen
feet. The trolley was almost over
turned.
The train was coming from South
Beach and was filled with women and
children. Their screams created a
panic and in the stampede to escape
many were cut and bruised. No one
was seriously enough injured to re-
quire the services of a physician.
The Clifton station is near the
scene of the accident, and fortunate
ly the engineer of the train had
thrown off his speed lever and was
about to apply the brakes when the
trolley rammed the train. He put on
the airbrakes and stopped the train
quickly.

NEW YORK, July 15.-Four. IN
CINE
the bursting of a steampipe on the
municipal ferryboat Richmond yes
terday morning just as the boat was
leaving the South Ferry slip on the
way to Staten Island. There were at
least 1900 passengers on board
mostly women and children. Cool
ness on the part of officers and crew
and the fact that the Richmond was
not yet in the stream averted a panic.
Only one of che men had to be taken
to the hospital ver.d, even he was not
badly hurt. PatrolA

explosion and S, steam pouring up
through the tunnels and ventilators.
Capt. William Cole, who was at the
wheel in the forward pilot house,
heard the explosion and rang to 9
verse the engines.
Most of the passengers had not
heard the explosion and the first inti-
nation of accident they had was
when they saw four men staggering
up from the forward engine room
with faces and arms scalded. The
boat was stopped at the same instant
and all knew something was wrong.
Turner and the deckhands went about
r%eassuring the timid. Although It
took nearly five minutes to warp the
boat back into the slip, and during
that time the escaping steam roared
like a furnace. the passengers waited
quietly.
Policeman McNulty of the church
street station teIephoned for the re-
serves and for ambulances. The o.
serves, under Roundsman Florsheim,
arrived in time to prevent too much
of a rush for land after the boat was
tied up.
The injured men were Joseph Du-
gan, fireman. 35 years old. of 8 Ben
iamin street. Corona. L. l.; Michael
Lysagt, fireman. 80 years old. of 535
East Eighty-frst street; William

were scalded about the arms and Du-
gan's face was also badly burned. He
was taken to the Hudson street hos

they were attended.
The passengers were transferred to
the Manhattan. The Brooklyn took
the Richmond's place on her next
scheduled trip.
1t was explained that the accident
was caused by the bursting of a Joint
on one of the main steam pipes In the
forward engine oom These pipes are
about eight inches In diameter. John
F. Ambrose, superintendent of fer
ries, said that the boat was inspected
on June Z of this year, and RAJ APP
parently all right. He said that even
If the bursting took place in midi
stream the boat could have gone on to
her destination all right by using the
set of boilers in the rear end of the
boat. These are separated from those
