Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 1.-THE driver Of
a taxicab ran his machine into an old
man, not far from the eastern plaza OF
the Williamsburg bridge during the
hour when folks going to work were
were hurrying toward Manhattan. this
morning. Then in his own desperate
attempt to escape capture the chauf-
feur collided with two trolley cars at
Steuben street and Flushing avenue.
In consequence. the chauffeur, James
Mccormick, is dying in the Cumberland
Street Hospital His victim is in a
like condition at the Williamsburg
Hospital.
Mccormick started for Manhattan
from the garage of the Green Taxicab
Company on Clymer street early today,
with his machine light. He had put
on pretty lively clip and found 1t
necessary to swerve out around troll
ley car as he reached the Williams
burg bridge.
Aged Man Run Over.
AS he did so he came suddenly on
John r. Bryan, who was crossing the
avenue. Bryan, who is sixty-four
years old, became confused between
the taxicab and the trolley car and
could not get out Of the way. The
machine struck him and bore him TO
the ground. passing over him.
The chauffeur tried to escape. The
motorman of the trolley car which had
been partially responsible for the &C.
cident threw his lever over and start
ed in pursuit.
If it had not been for McCormick's ex-
cessiEe haste he might have got away in
safety, but he took too many chances in
the narrow streets, as he made for the
bridge. He managed to pull through un-
til he reached Steuben streets fntersec-
ton with Flushing avenue. There an
other trolley car got in his way and
proved his undoing.
This car, filled with people on their
way to Manhattan, was just rounding
the curve to take the bridge. The fleeing
chauffeur started to take 1t with little
1et-up in his speed. But he did not no.
tice an outward-bound car that happened
to be making for the same space.
Taxicab Crushed Between Cars.
Both he and the motorman saw each
other too late. The taxicab jumped for
ward and wedged directly between the
two cars with a smashing Of wood and
glass that set panic going among their
passengers.
When the shock came Mccormick was
thrown from the wheel Of his machine
clean over the front of it and into the
roadway. He landed on his head and
shoulders and was picked up unconscious.
When the ambulance surgeon arrived
he said that the chauffeur had suffered
concussfon of the brain, together with
probable internal injuries, and had little
chance Of recovery. He was rushed to
the hospital for an operation.
While an ambulance was racing to the
Cumberland street hospital with McCor-
mick another was taking Bryan. the man
that he had run over. to the Williamsburg
Hospital. There it was said that the old
man was too badly injured to have much
hope of recovery.
