man Against Steel Beams-Death
May Be Result of Terrible
Accident

r. Il. McFadden, a machinist, was
crushed and probably fatally injured
in an elevator shaft at the Hotel Alex

doing some repair work on an air COM
pressor at the top of the shaft, the
machinist opened a valve. which al
lowed the cage to dash upward.
The unfortunate man was in such a
position that he could not extricate
himself from danger, and as a result he
was crushed by the terrible force of
the cage striking the beam.
Workmen finally succeeded in res
cuing McFadden from his perilous
position. He was sent to the receiving
hospital, and his family, who live at
365 Avenue Twenty-Five, were notified.
Police Surgeons Bonynge and Quint
examined the man and it is thought
that the spinal bones are fractured.
Injured Man Taken to Hospital
McFadden was removed to a private
hospital. A consultation will be held
and an examination made by the sur
geons in an endeavor to ascertain the
extent of the injuries.
Mrs. McFadden died a short time
ago, the husband and a 5-year-old
daughter surviving.
