FATAL AUTO ACCIDENT. =
Big Touring Car Dashes Into Train
and Two Men Are Killed.

Westbury, L. l., May 23.-While
running at a rate of forty miles an
hour big touring automobile belong
ing to P. F. Collier dashed into an
eastbound express train at the depot
crossing here at night. The two oc-
cupants of the machine George Ga
briel, the chauffeur, and Frederick
Whitehead, valet in the Collier fam
lily, were instantly killed and the ma
chine wrecked.
1t is impossible to see in either di-
rection at this, crossing until it is al
most reached. Because of the many
accidents at this point it has gained
the name of Deaths Crossing.
Twenty yards from the crossing
Bishop threw on the brakes, but the
momentum carried the automobile
along at an apparently undiminished
speed. The machine crashed into the
second car of the train with loud re-
port as if the gasoline tank had ex-
ploded. The automobile was caught
between the rear trucks of the car
and dragged for nearly half a mile
before the train was stopped. Bishop
and Whitehead were pinioned in the
wreckage and were literally ground
to pieces.
