FLESH CUT IN CRASH
One Smashsup on Clarem0nt
Avenue Grade and Other
on Union Hill.

In two bad coasting accidents in
Montclair last night and yesterday aft
ernoon nearly a dozen of we'll known
young persons, mostly sons of rich
parents of that town, We're painfully
and in some cases seriously injured.
At night a well-filled bob sled dashed
down the Claremont avenue hill and
smashed into stalled trolley car at
the Valley road crossing. In the after
noon another bob, containing 1S, going
down Union hill, ran into a tree near
Clifton avenue. Tho victims We're all
removed to their homes and are doing
| fairly we'll today.
Those injured in the night acci-
dent were:
! GRUNSKY, Miss kathcrsine, of A.
/ North Fullerton avenue, breast bone
thought to be broken.
LUDLAM, Leslie, of 30l CIaremont ave-
nue.. internal injuries.

How the Accidents Occurred.
In the night accident, which hap
pened at $3.50, Policeman Michael Nc
Hugh, who had been stationed at the
crossing to stop trolley cars and
wagons when bob would be on the
way down the hill, signalled a trolley
car to cross after a bob had passed,
as there was plenty of time before the
next bob, steared by Leslie Lndlam,
would appear. The motorman started
his car, and when on the middle of
the avenue the fuse blew out and the
car stopped. The accident then was
unavoidable. DR.. Levi w. Halsey. DIR.
William II. Areson, DIR. w w. Harri
son and Dr. Leslie Love gave attention
to the injured.
! Minister'S Daughter Escapes.
Miss Elizabeth Reed, daughter of the
Rev. Dr. Orville Reed, Of Montclalr,
j who was on the bob, was around the
house as usual today, although it was
at first thought she was severely in-
/ jured.
The afternoon accident was caused
by the breaking of the steering rope
/ OF the bob, which was steered by Rus
sell Gates, 10 years old, son Of Freder-
lex P. Gates, of " South Mountain ave-
nue..
Young Gates, seeing the danger, was
able to jump and escaped injury while
| the other young mon, Mexican, AcGhie
/ and Christie, were not as fortunate.
The injured were taken into the home
of Irving Crowell in Union street, and
Dr. James S. Brown was summoned
/ After the wounds were dressed they
were taken to their homes.
