Laughing Party Dashed to
Death on Coney Island
MECHANISM WENT WRONG
TWO CAR LOADS OF PLEASURE
SEEKERS DASHED FROM SEEN
&c RAILWAY TO GROUND WHEN
FAULTY MECHANISM ALLOWS
CARS TO JUMP TRACK.

New York, June 22.-At. least four
persons were fatally injured and doz-
en- others seriously hurt early today
when two crowded cars of the scenic
railway on the Bowery. Coney Island,
running at terrific speed jumped the
track and dropped sixty feet to the
ground.
Two cars of the big switch back
had been filled and hauled up the in.
cline, and the party laughing and
shouting plunged down the steep.
Something went wrong with the me-
chanism and as the cars were dashing
around the first turn the rear car
jumped the track dragging the forward
car with 1t.
Ten of the occupants were hurled
from the cars, falling to the ground.
where they lay unconscious. Six
went down from the first car and were
pinned fast beneath the wreckage. The
man in charge of driving the cars es-
capped injury. He could not explain
the accident but declared twas un-
avoidable.
