The heavy steel bumper on the front
of the rear car sheared the crowded
vestibule just above the floor, crushing
the feet and limbs OF the victims and
in many cases cutting them entirely
in two.
The similarity Of injuries Is remark
able. Scarcely a victim has a mark
above the knee. Scarcely one but will
lose at least one foot.
The scene of carnage after the
wreck was sickening. Feet, legs and
blood lay strewn with the scattered
splinters OF the vestibule. Only those
who were on the rear platform or in
the doorway suffered. Even those in
the rear seats escaped without injury.

was encoun,red five blocks from the
wreck only few minutes after II hap
pened, and placed under arrest. He Is
charged with manslaughter. Imme-

blame for the catastrophe.
