Il KILLED IN WRECK
REAR END COLLISION ON NEW
HAVEN ROAD IN CON-
NEcTIcuT.
ENGINEER PASSED SIGNAL IN THE FOG
MangIed Human Beings Are Tossed in
Air by Engine-Thlrd Serious
Wreck Within Year for
This Road.

New Haven, Conn.-Twenty-one per-
sons were killed and nearly so were
injured in a rear-end collision Tuesday
on the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford railroad six miles north of here.
The first section of the White Noun
tain Express, bound for New York,
speeding along at probably 40 miles an
hour in thick fog, rushed by danger
signal and crashed into the rear of the
second section of the Bar Harbor Elk
press, standing 100 feet beyond the
block signal.
The White Mountain engine cleaved
through the two rear Pullman cars,
both of wood, splitting them in two
and tossing their wreckage and three
score of mangled human beings, some
alive, some dead, on both sides of the
track.
Car Lifted in Air.
The third car, also of wood, and oc-
cupied by 40 boys on their way from
a summer camp at Monmouth, Me-
was lifted into the air and thrown al.
most completely off the track. The
car fell on its side crumpled up,
crushed two of the boys to death and
injured several others. Some of the
victims of the two rear Pullmans were
hurled from their berths over a fence
paralleling the track, so feet distant
mattresses, bedding and clothing were
found in the telegraph wires.
This is the third serious wreck
which the New Haven has suffered
within year and the first of the re
gime of Howard Elliott, the newly
elected head of the road.
Practically all the passengers Oh
both trains were returning home from
summer vacations and all but two o.

Crosier Fox, of Elkins Park, Pa, re
