Wonderful Escape From
a Fatal Accident.
Skowhegan Automobile |!
Smashed by Electric Car.
Five Men on Car Escape Without
Any Serious Injury.

What would almost seem to be a
miraculous escape from serious inju-
ry happened late yesterday afternoon
when an automobile owned by E. p.
Viles of Skowhegan was struck by an
electric car near the brick yard be-
tween this city and Fairfield and was
Stanley steamer, was completely turn
ed over, but fortunately none of the
occupants were injured.
The accident happened about 5.35
o'clock in the afternoon, the machine
being hit by the $50 car out Of Fair
field in charge of Conductor Fred
sleeves and Motorman Joshua Emery.
The automobile with a party of five
from Skowhegan, driven by Frank
Parsons, had been in the vicinity of
Lombard's manufacturing plant on a
private road which is used to carry
wood from the cars to the brick yard.
There are large piles of cord wood on
one side which practically shuts out
the view of the track from any one
coming up that road.
The party having finished their bus
mess in that vicinity, started out and
one half of the machine was across
the track when the chauffeur glanced
out and saw the electric upon them.
He shut off the power and it is I'M
derstood that a dress suit case in the
front part of the machine prevented
the working of the reverse lever, so
that the car started back over the
small hill with it's own momentum.
The motornan did all in his power to
stop the heavy electric, but the acct
dent was unpreventable and the auto
mobile was hit with such force that it
was completely turned over
The electric was quickly brought to
a standstiil and all aboard rushed
back to assist the occupants who were
crawling from beneath the wrecked
car None were found to be injured.
The car was damaged considerably.
The forward wheels were both torn
from their positions and the steering
apparatus as well as the boiler was
damaged.
This crossing is one Of the worst on
the road and the car men always take
special pains to ascertain that no team
is about to cross when teams are work.
ing in that vicinity transporting wood.
The speed of the electric about this
point is about normal, as they usual
ly slow down before going over the
tracks into the brick yard. The opin-
ion of all on board the electric is that
the motorman did well in slowing
down the car as he did. There are no
air brakes and they are controlled by
the hand brake. The car is No -, one
of the> largest and going at the usual
speed along this stretch it would nat
urally go some distance before it could
be brought to a standstill
When it was found that none of the
occupants were injured the car pro-
ceeded to this city. The damaged ma
