BRAKEMAN IS CAUGHT
BETWEEN TWO CARS
Chas. Hutchinson, Employed on
Crooked Greek, Has Narrow
Escape From Death.

Charles Hutchinson, employed as
brakeman on the Crooked Creek rail-
way, is lying at Mercy hospital suf'
fering from severe crushing of the
chest, inflicted Monday a. m. when
he was caught between two freight
cars as they came together for coup.
ling. Those familiar with the par
ticulars of the accident are surpris-
ed that the man escaped with his
life.
The & accident, occurred while
Hutchinson and the other men were
making up the train for the daily
run to Lehigh. One of the cars to
be taken was standing on the north
side track and Engineer VIM. Harri-
son ran the engine and three cars
over to it. When the coupling was
attempted, Hutchinson, who went
between the cars, caught his coat
on a bolt and in his efforts to free
his coat he threw himself between
the bumpers, where the on coming
traina caught him. The cars were
separated as soon as possible and
the mans body released. After his
release Hutchinson stood up for a
moment or two and then dropped to
the ground, apparently seriously
hurt. He was in great pain but
still conscious. A physician was hur-
ried to the spot and by the time of
his arrival Hutchinson was feeling
better and refused to go to the hos
pital, saying that he was not hurt.
However, fearing internal injuries,
the doctor sent in an ambulance call
in spite of the mans protestations
and he was taken to the hospital. As
yet it is impossible to say how bad
ly he may be hurt.
Mr.. Hutchinson is man with a
family who recently moved to this
city from Lehigh and resides in the
north part of the city.
