CAUGHT LIKE RATS IN TRAP
DR.. EMILY CHAMBERS HORRIBLE
FATE IN THE WlLDS OF
ALASKA.

Atlantic City, N. j.. Oct. 3o.-By the
wrecking of three-coach electric
train on the West Jersey & Seashore
railroad yesterday at least fifty pas
sengers persisted, and the list may
reach the total of seventy five when
all is known.
While crossing over a drawbridge
spanning the waterway known as
The Thoroughfare," which separates
Atlantic City from the mainland, the
train left the track and plunged into
the water. The passengers in the first
two coaches, with one or two eXcep-
lions, were drowned.
Twenty-Five Bodies Recovered.
Up to midnight fortyfour bodies
have been recovered and it is believed
that at least twenty-five and probably
fifty more bodies still are in the sub
merged coaches.
Cause of Wreck in Doubt.
The cause of the wreck has not
been established. 1t was probably due
Sil1iSi W q QSlSSllNc lttll vi l1S DISdh-
ing Of some part of the superstruc-
ture of the first coach. 1t has also
been suggested that the drawbridge,
which had just been closed after the
passage of yacht, may not have prop
erly locked the rails. All the stories
as TO the cause of the accident, how
ever, are purely speculative.
While r11pnjpo at c,nad coi1 tn
ave been moderate. the first coach
left the rails and dragged those follow
ing it over the ties for a distance of
fifty feet
Plunged Into Water.
Suddenly swerving, the first two
coaches plunged over the side of the
bridge into the water below. The
third coach struck an abutment,
broke it's couplings and for a brief
time hung suspended over the water
Brief as was this period, however, it
gave more than score of passengers
an opportunity to escape by the rear
door. Then the car slid off and fol-
lowed the other two into the water.
1t is believed every one in the third
coach escaped alive although all were
injured.
The accident was witnessed by
many persons on shore and assistance
WAS promptly sent from Atlantic
City.
