TROLLEY STOPS
IN R. R. TRACK
Another Near Accident at
the Smith Street Crossing
Last Night.
FREIGHT is FlAGGED
Heroic Action of Conductor
Saves Lives OF the Fright
ened Passengers.

Lives of about fifteen passengers
aboard trolley car No. 1,161, were
imperiled as the car stopped in the
path of fast freight train at Smith
street crossing of the Central rail
road at 7:30 o'clock last night. Pat
rick Dolan, a Public Service Railway
Company conductor, played the part
OF hero and tagged the train in
time to avert probly serious and fa-
fatal collision. He ran down the track
with lantern in hand and signalled
the engineer, while the trolley car
stood helpless with the rear half di-
recting in the path of the approach
ing freight.
Pulled Deraflfng Device.
The trolley was an east-bound
Railway car of the Public Service
Railway Company due at the cross
ing at 1920 o'clock. Conductor Ed
ward Lenhart, of Roselle, was in
charge. AS he held the lever that
pulled the derailing device into place,
Motorman Holmes started to run the
car over the crossing. At the same
time to avert a probably serious and
the gates. This action seemed to
confuse Lenhart and he let go of the
lever causing the derail to be put in
use. The forward tracks of the car
remained on the rails and the rear
trucks went over the derail and of
on the pavement, with the result that
the car ran diagonally across the
railroad crossing. 1t stopped with
the rear half over the north-bound
track.
Conductor Acts Quickly.
Conductor Dolan, who was on the
car, but not on duty, grabbed a Ian
tern and ran down the track. AS he
did SO the passengers made a wild
scramble to get out of the stalled
car. Patrolman William Calvin was
on the scene to aid the crew and pas
sengers.
Little damage was done, excepting
that a deep ridge was cut into the
pavement. The gates we're not bro,

SPANISH GAME
INVESTIGATION
lettars Received from "Pris-
oners' Are Sent to Au-
thoritiss at Washington.
USED THE u. S. MAILS
SWindIsrs Wrote to People in
This City and Tettsnville
About Money.

The attention of the United States
postal authorities has been called to
the fact that letters have been re-
ceived in this city from Spain which
indicate efforts were made TO. work
the old Spanish prisoner game
here. Documents telling of likely
fortunes have been received by peo-
pie here and in Tottenville and it is
believed they were sent to snare
prospective victims. Efforts are be-
Ing made to have the practice stop
ped and. if possible, have the swind-
lers apprehended in Spain where
they operate from. Their operations
incur fraudulent use of the malls.
Former Mayor Interested.
Edward w. Barnes, a former
mayor OF this city, has become inter-
ested in the matter and has forward
ed letters and clippings received by
people in this vicinity to the United
States postal authorities The let
ters were written by hand and the
clippings looked as though they
were made for the purpose and were
not actually clipped from publica-
tions. By these clues the criminals
may be apprehended, or a warning
may at least be sent to Spain to pre-
vent others from being sent here.
Letters Treated as Joke.
Fortunately none of the recipients
Of the letters hereabouts took them
seriously and went to any expense in
replying. Andrew Clausen, a har-
ness maker Of lab New Brunswick
avenue, the person who received the
last letter, took 1t as a joke and en-
joyed a laugh over 1t. He has for
warded the letter with the clippings
enclosed to Mr.. Barnes, who in turn
has laid them before the postal au-

hoped to save prospective victims OF
the future.
The Spanish Prisoner swfndIe Is
an old one. 1t has been attempted
repeatedly and many persons were
caught and induced to pay sums of
money in anticipation of securing
larger sums AS in the case of Mr..
Clausen, he received a letter prom
ising him 100000, the third part
of S4S0,000, If he would fulfill Ger
tain requirements. The letter came
from Madrid, Spain, and was dated
January 2, 1911. 1t was signed

New York, April S;-The 1900
passengers of the stranded steamer
Irene were safely landed at the
Hoboken dock of the North German
Lloyd today All hands are enthusi-
astic in their praise of the conduct
of the captain and the ships COM
pany of the Irene. Captain Peter
sons hair is said to have turned gray
during the night as the result of the
Irene running on the Fire Island
sand bar. He and the crew of the
Irene are still on the big liner,
which is in very dangerous posi-
tion today and may break up before
the wreckers succeed in dragging her
off the bar. The transfer of passen-
gers was made in five hours and ten
minutes.
From the rails of the big Prinz the
rabin and steerage passengers waved
farewell to the ship that had kept
them rather pleasantly imprisoned for
80 many hours. They were going to
New York and solid footing, but they
knew there was no likelihood for the
Princess to follow them very soon.
The surfmen and the wreckers, OBJ
serving that the Princess had imbed-
ded herself farther and farther In the
soft sand of Lone hill bar, figured that
1t wouldn't be possible to haul her off
inside of q week 1t might. they
thought, take much longer, and In this
reckoning they did not include the
peril of sudden storms that arise on
the north Atlantic to break up ground

The sea, however, has lightened. and
there is an offshore wind. which,
though strong, is a help rather than q
danger to the steamship. 1t Is report
