NINE PERSONS INJURED
IN S. 8 f. SMASHUP
REAR END COLLISION AT FLINT
HAS SERIOUS RESULTS
Accident Occurred on Saturday Night.
Failure of Brakes Assigned as
Probable Cause

A very serious accident occurred at
Flint, last Saturday evening at about
seven o'clock, when the second section
of the Detroit Saginaw limited crashed
into the first section which had been
stopped on the track while the con-
ductor was telephoning for orders.
Motorman AL. Wilmarth, of Clio, was
at the lever of the second section and
says that when he came in sight of the
first car he found that it would be i'm
possible for him to stop in time to avoid
a collision, and jumped. The impact
demolished the vestibule of the first car
and seriously injured nine men who
were occupying it. All of the injured
were residents Of Flint, with the ex-
ception of VIM. Franklin, who lives
near Clio, and who was the most seri-
ously hurt of all, sustaining bad frac-
ture of the skull. Ambulances and ply
sicians were soon on the scene and the
injured were conveyed to their homes
or to the hospital as conditions seemed
to require. Mr.. Franklin was taken to
the hospital and for time it was
thought he could not survive, but a re-
port secured just as we are going to
press indicates that he is recovering
nicely.
Motorman Wilmarth attributes the
accident, we are informed, to failure
of the brakes to work properly, but at
present he is not working, pending an
investigation Of the matter. The rail-
road company is said to have settled
with all of the parties who were injured
with the exception of Mr.. Franklin and
possibly one other.
