BROADWAY CAR COLLISION.
Four Passenge rs Cut and Bruised; Motor.
man n Hospital Case.

Five people were hurt in a collision Of
two surface carr at Broadway and Canal
street at S95 O'Clock Last night. There
we're only a few passengers in each car.
A Sixth avenue car bound up town from
the Brooklyn Bridge by way of Centre
and Canal streets got beyond control Of
David Kinney, the motorman, as it neared
Broadway. There is a down grade to
Broadway and the slippery condition Of
the rails made it impossible for Kinney
to stop.
The car struck the rear half Of the Broad
way car,w which was bound north, with great
force, breaking all the glass on the east
side of the car. The Broadway car was
jammed from the rails, but not far enough
to block traffic on the southbound track.
Four passengers seated in the rear Of the
Broadway car were thrown from their
seats and badly bruised and cut by flying
glass. They are Peter Ripper, skipper of
a coal barge; Isaac Broth, a "a lesman, of
3l8 West 18th street; Cornelius Considine
an iron worker, OF 28i Atlantic avenue,
Brooklyn, and Albert Keller, also an iron
worker, Of the same address. None Of them
would go to a hospital.
Kinney, the motorman Of the Sixth ave-
nue. car, stuck to his post and tried as best
he could to throw on the brakes and avoid
the collision. As a result he was so badly
bruised and cut that he was hurried to st.
Vincent's Hospital.
The blockade of the n%orthbound tracks
lasted for forty minutes.

CITY FERRYBOAT ON A TOOT.
Couldn't Choke on Her whistle, Which
Bothered Sober Craft she Met.

Couldn't OhOke wi her Vh'etit' Whic'
Bothered Sober Craft she Met.
There was something the matter with
the gear Of one of the steam whistles on the
municipal ferryboat Richmond yesterday
afternoon.
When the Richmond was about to pull
out of her South Ferry slip at 4 o'clock
the captain pulled the whistle cord, as
captains must do when steaming out INTO
tne river, but when he let 1t go again the
whistle went on whistling. The Richmond
pulled out and started toward st. George
still whistling. Captains Of tugs and
other ~ferryboats footed their Whistles but
didn't get the kind of replies from the Rich
noond that they expected. They didn't
know whether the Richmond was going to
sta rboard or to port.
When the ferryboat got of Governors
Island her whistle was still blowing ana the
noise kept up until she was well on her way
TO staten Island. Then a deckhapd man
aged TO choke off her throat. The boilers
had lost SO much power by the escape that
the boat could not keep up her usual speed
and was several minutes behind schedule
time when she reached st. George.
The whistle worked all right coming
back, but on the 5 O'Clock trip it got caught
again. The after whistle was used on the
second triU.

Ludlow, the inventor, fell for more thar

with the huge wings Of the aeroplane folded
over and pinning him in his position. He Is

In the hope of saving him he is being rushed
to New York.

the making of arrangements for caring
for him upon his arrival in New York.
Charles X. Hamilton, the a%eronaut who
made the ascension Monday, is travelling
with Ludlow, and Ludlow's mother has
been telegraphed to meet the party in
Richmond, though physicians here are
extremely doubtful whether the injured
man can survive the necessary jar OF the
trip.
Two large automobiles, driven by
drivers participating in the tournament
here, had the big kite in tow at the
+ ascension to-day. The aeroplane was 80
constructed that it had twice the lifting
power Of the one used by Hamilton, A
strong south wind lifted the big kite
easily, and it assembled fully $50 feet.
Then the hundreds of spectators on the
beach heard the crash Of the bamboo that
told the story of the broken framework.
An instant later, they saw the front half
of the kite lift, bend backward and fasten
Ludlow in his seat. cutting off every oppor-
tunity he had of saving himself by climbing
over the supports
The kite, shorn of its lifting power, shot
downward like a rock. Ludlow landed
! on the hard beach, striking suuarely or the
base Of his spine, and then the upper portion
of the aeroplane crashed down upon the
head of the helpless man.
Willing hands lifted him out and he was
carried to the Hotel Continental, where
physicians examined his injuries.
Ludlow was at once placed or n cot and
on board a train for the journey north

The injured man discussed the accident
freely and keeps repeating,
