Keyport, Feb. IA bad accident
occurred on the Atlantic Highlands
division of the Jersey Central Trac-
tion Company's line about $3.50
O'Clock yesterday morning in which
Joseph Coward, of West Keyport,
was severely injured, AM several of
his companions bruised and cut.
Coward was in charge of the line
mems work car of the ]. c. T. COM
pany and was running his car to At
lantic Highlands. About midway be-
tween Campbell's Junction and At
lantic Highlands the tracks of the j.
: c. T. company cross the railroad of
| the southern division of the New
Jersey Central. which branches of
the regular line and runs through to
Red Bank. The southern division is
not used as a passenger route, but
freight service is conducted over the
line.
1t was at this crossing, near the
Hopping's gravel banks, where the
car containing the linemen's crew
was struck by an engine and tender
which was backing up from the south
running very swiftly. Apparently
neither the motorman nor the engi-
neer saw each other until collision
was unavoidable.
The linemen's crew, consisting Of
Joseph Coward. George Kipp. Will
liam Donnelly. Abe Bailey, George
Smith, Jr.. and VILLAIN Bailey. were
all, with the exception OF William
Bailey. riding inside the car and did
not have any chance to escape. The
| forward trucks of the trolley were
knocked from the track and at the
contact the tender OF the engine was
also derailed. This probably saved
the lives or serious injury to the
trolley men.
| When the work car was struck
the doors became jammed and could
not be forced open. the men inside
being helped out through the win
dows. The injured men were brought
to this place at once and were at
tended by DR.. d. f. Roberts. Mr..
Coward sustained a long, deep cut
over his left eye and several cuts
about the head and face. Both eyes
were blackened and closed. He was
also cut about the hands. He was
taken to his home and will be con-
fined to his bed several days George
