TWO INJURED
IN A Street
CAR ACCIDENT
MANY OTHERS WERE SHAKEN
UP AND BADLY FRIGHTENED
WHEN CAR BACKED INTO LINE
OF TRAILERS LOADED WITH
PASSENGERS GOING TO PAL
METTo BEACH LAST NIGHT.

Two persons were slightly injured
and a number of others given good
shaking up last night about 1880, when
a bayshore car which was preparing
to leave the depot at the corner Of
Main and Jefferson streets bumped
into several trailers loaded with peo-
pie going to Palmetto Beach to the
Woodmen Of the World picnic. Those
hurt were J. F. Davis, whose hand
was smashed. face bruised and leg
bruised and skinned, and Elliott Nc
Closkey, whose back was wrenched.
Neither of them are thought to be Sc
rioutIy injured.
At tia time of the accident, the
car was backing up to connect the
trailers, and, according to the motor
man. the brakes failed to work when
applied, which caused the collision.
However, some passengers in the rear
of the car had presence Of mind
enough to jerk the trolley off before
the car struck the line of trailers, thus
diminishing the force of the crash.
Mr.. Davis was on the front end of
the trailer struck by the car and was
| thrown forward, narrowly escaping
going between the car and the trailer,
which would have been almost certain
| death. He was thrown completely over
the front railing, according to his
! SLAIeinSHIs Dul SuCCS6u0Q Al ClAuBlnS "
the railing, thus preventing himself
from falling between the cars.
! McCloskey was sitting on a seat to-
ward the front Of the car and was
thrown from his seat.
] Nearly all of the passengers on the
! trailers, as well as those on the car,
were violently shaken and a number
Of them were badly frightened Some
! of the women passengers were so bad
ly frightened that they became hys-
/ terical.
When the car struck the trailers the
crash made a tremendous noise, and
people from various parts of the city
| quickly gathered around the depot
| thinking that a serious wreck had oc-
CURED. The screaming of some of
the passengers also caused consider
able alarm.
The car was damaged some, several
| of the windows being broken.

Notes of the Game.
Smith. in right field, made an awful
mess of Pelty's drive in the first. He
ran in about twenty feet. then reversed
and started back, just managed to get
one hand on the ball This allowed the
only run the visitors made.
Fitzpatrick made two new rulings
yesterday, which cannot be found ia
the book. Haley hit a higA foul fly
down the first base line, and in tryins
to avoid the fielder who was in the ACT
Of catching the ball, ran out of the
line The fielder misjudged the tap
however, and the ball in descending hi
Haley, who was then on foul ground
and the umpire called him out.
In the third inning Bokenfohr baked
made a motion toward first and die
not complete the throw. The umpire
allowed the balk, but called a ball
on the batsman. How can a ball be
called when no ball was delivered?
Hauser used nice head work in the
third. With the bases filled, by a nice
peg. he caught Cusack off first Griffin
kept Cusack going toward second and
when Snyder, who was on third. made
a break for the plate, Griffin returned
the pill to Hauser. Snyder, anticipat-
ing tAe play, beat it back toward
third, which he would have made
easily, but Hauser, taking in the sit
uation at a glance, without even hes
itating. returned the ball to Griffin
before Cusack could get back. The
same process was repeated, but this
time Snyder was nipped This was
the turning point in the game, and too
much credit cannot be given Hauser.

walked filling the sacks. Roache
popped a dinky fly to second, which
that worthy accommodatingIy let
trickle through his meat hooks and
Griffin crossed, but Kelly was nailed,
when he endeavored to follow, the PLAY
on Kelly being exceedingly close.
The Eddys had the bases loaded in
the third period, but ivory topped
baserunning killed off their chances for
a score. After Bokenfohr had Whitfield
Snyder hit to right. and went to second
when Graham booted Renickes hard
grounder, Renicke going to first. Gu

tenanted. Cusack took too much room
or first and was caught in a chase be-
tween first and second, Hauser to Grif-
fin. Snyder endeavored 10 score but
was nailed, Griffin to Hauser Gordon
then worked the century old hidden
ball trick, tou ching out Cusach when
he stepped off the bag This was the
last time they threatened.
Pensacola put over their fourth and
last run in the eighth inning. Graham
walked and went to second, when the
catcher overthrow first trying to catch
