UNCONSCIOUS AT THROTTLE
Engineer of Fast Train Overcome BY
Heat.

Heat
Cleveland. o.. July 17.-Hundreds of
lives were imperllled when Floyd E.
Webber, engineer of a fast west-bound
Lake Shore passenger train, was
stricken unconscious at his throttle
and the train sped almost into CIeve-
land without a guiding hand.
The engineer was overcome by the
intense heat. AS the engine rocked
into the Cleveland yards over the
switch points the motion threw the
engine driver from his seat to the floor
OF the cab. Then the fireman learned
what had happened. He jumped to the
engineers seat. leaving his companion
helpless on the footboards. while he
brought the speed OF the train down |
within the yard limits.
Webbers condition was found to be /
critical. How long the engineer had
been unconscious at the throttle is
not known.
