dates for mayor must he named on nomi-

ready at work trying TO encompass the

KILLED AT A CURVE.
Electric Car DeraiIed and, Overturned,
Crushed IL Passengers to Death.

Providence, r. l., June 4.-Eleven
persons are dead, a score seriously and
many others slightly injured as the re-
suit of the overturning Of a crowded
Providence early Sunday morning.
More than 100 young men and women
had spent the evening at Crescent
park, six miles below this city. were on
a chartered car returning to their
homes in this city, Olneyyille and
Thornton. 1t is believed that two of
the injured will die.

ETHEL WHITLEY, 10 years.
The motorman in charge of the car,
W. J. Laughter. was unfamiliar with
the road over which he was travelling.
The car, an open one, was heavy built.
Fog prevented a clear view of the
road ahead, and the motorman, I'M
aware of the sharp curve below, allow
ed the car to coast rapidly down the
hill. Suddenly he felt the car swing
into the curve, and realizing the peril
applied the brakes and reversed the
power. The car, however, was thrown
into the road twenty feet from the
track.
Seven of the passengers we're pinion-
ed beneath the car and instantly killed.
Those who were able began the work
of rescue. A long Joist was utilized as
a lever, a pile of stones forming full
crum, and the car was raised from the
ground Just enough to permit the es-
cape of its imprisoned passengers. Two
persons had succeeded in escaping
when the joist broke under the weight
of the car and the heavy vehicle fell
back, killing two of the injured.
The rescuers again raised the car
from the ground and by building pile
of heavy stone, kept it in position while
the dead and injured were removed.
Two of those taken out, John Gavin
and George Atcherson, both of whom
had sustained fractured skulls, died
within an hour
