The accident occurred midway of Birmingham and Ensley. about four miles from either place. Owing to the inaccessibility of the place where the accident occurred 1t was an hour be- fore ambuances could be secured. The nearest telephone being moro than three quarters of a mlle away.
 The accident occurred at e switch and was caused by the motorman of the Ems ley car throwing on tho motor power of his car before the trailer of tho car TO- ing to Birmingham passed. Tho motor car of tho car going to Birmingham had passed the switch and was proceeding at a slow rate when the Ensley bound car hit the trailer. Tho trailer was badly damaged and the front of tho Ensley bound car was demolished. Fortunately tho cars did not turn over when they collided. although the front trucks of both cars were turned sideways by the impact of the blow.

Coun- cell is suffering from a bad out over tho eye and was sent to her home immedi- ately after the accident. |. A. Bradley was the conductor in charge of the car bound for Ensley. w. J. willoughby and w. J. Lisle were the motorman and con- ductor of the car going to Birmingham.
 All traffic over these tracks was held up pending tho removal of tho wrecked cars. Service is expected to be resumed this morning F. l.. Powell. 11si John street, was riding on the rear platform of the car going to Birmingham when the crash came.
 The first I knew of anything being wrong was when heard a loud crash ana the people commenced to scream" he said. Nearly every one in the cars were thrown to the floor and there was a great deal of excitement for a few minutes. 1t was a long time before any thing like order was restored and every one seemed to have lost their head for the time. Most of the injured negroes were loaded in car that came up tho track after the accident and brought to Birmingham and Ensley. Most of them were only slightly injured.
 The following Is list of the injured negroes; Erman Baldwin, Will Will Hams. Andrew Gillard. Sallie Thomas. Susie May, Cornela Caldwell Richard Lowe, James Harris. John Baker, John Robinson.

VANDERBILT'S HOPES
 RECEIVE HEAVY JAR
Rip King Sensation of Squad Withdraws From School and
 Leaves McGugin Without Punter

Nashville. Tenn, October 2.-(Spe- olal )-Just when Commodore football
 supporters were on the point of be-
 coming enthused over the 1915 gridiron
 prospects the hard luck jinx comes
 along and robs the eleven of one of
 the most promising backfield candi- dates that has appeared on Dudley Field in many years. Rip" King, A
 battle-ground Academy star, is the moleskin warrior who flashed on the Commodore gridiron for an instant and carried the hopes of Vanderilt high. and then suddenly sent them hurting down. King was at Vanderilt only long enough to give Commodore SUD- porters & taste of his promised great ness and Coach McGugin was elated plunging and defensive play and had begun to build his backfield around the 1S5-pound prep school star, when he quit school
 Failure to secure a position in Nash vile whereby he might secure funds to carry him through college and the counter opportunity to accept a busi-
 ness connection in another city caused the curtailment of Kings football ca reer as a Commodore. His going has cast a shadow of gloom over Dudley
 Field and put the puzzling bunting problem back in its original complex state.
 While King possessed some faults that 1t would have been necessary to eliminate, he showed the earmarks of
 wonderful ground gainer and in tho normal game his line bucking from
 fullback position brought indications that Vanderbilt this season might be
 able to turn out punch which they have lacked for the past two seasons To replace King at fullback, Coach McGugin has shifted Eubert Wiggs, an- other prep school crack. and one of the

POSTOFF|CE WINS |. CITY CHAMPIONSHIP
Galbreath Pitches Both Games for PirateS-Jewel-
 CTS Play Off Form

The postoffiee Pirates of the Greater Birmingham league. won the amateur championship of the city yesterday aft erroon when they administered a double defeat to the Rasco Jewellers. The games were hard fought from start to finish. Gal breath pitched both games for the Pirates and after winning the first encounter the Jewellers found him invincible in the sec ond game The score of the first game was to 4 and the second game to IS, which was called at the end of the fifth on account of darkness
 Rasco took an early lead in the first
 game. scoring two runs in the first and two in the fourth. However. the Pirates never gave up and finally overcame the four r-run lead of the Jewellers. With the count tied in the ninth inning. and with two men on base, Slick" Davis won the game by slamming out a double to left. scoring Grayson with the winning tally. The second game was the Pirates all the way through. The Jewellers never became dangerous. and as the game progressed Galbreeth grew stronger. McGary started the second fray for the Jewellers. but was easy for the Pirate batsmen, who netted six counters in- the first two innings off his delivery. He was wild and walked six men. Batson caught both games for
 the Pirates and played good game. Reese was behind the bat for Manager Smiths Jewellers.
 The individual stars of the game were
 few, but the playing of Captain billiard Of the Pirates who fielded his position in masterly style. and the pitching of Galbreath stood out above all others. The ! Pirates outfielded and outhit the Jew | eiers, and were the deserving winners
 In fact. the best team won. A large crowd saw the games, which ended anna teur baseball in Birmingham for 1915. The box score follows:

most earnest and willing workers who has ever worn tho black and gold. Wiggs belongs to the old school of football players. There are no frills to his work. nothing spectacular. but he goes about his work in a business like manner. and though his form is awkward. he tears into the line with reckless abandon and terrifice force
 For the bunting role. Coach McGugin has several candidates but none are able to get behind their boots the distance that Rip" King showed ''Yunk' Chester, who last year was un fortunate enough to lose game for Vanderbilt when a North Carolina for ward blocked one of his left footed punts. Is back again, but there is some doubt that he will be able to make the eleven this year. zerfoss. an all-Ken- lucky man two years ago. Is making a strong bid for bunting honors, and looks like a certainty. either as first substitute to Rabbit Currey at quarter or on one of the halves. Joe Roach. 6 local prep >school boy. Is another capable booter, but his inexperienced gives the edge to some of the other candidates.
 Bob Turner, one of the fastest men fin the south on the cinder path, is show ing up well in the backfield, although he has yet to learn how to employ his great speed in getting up to the line of scrimmage. One past that point Fur ner is flash and difficult man to stop. but is a slow starter
 The wings and line are not giving the coaches as much trouble, as for merly. In the normal game more block ing was done than in all of last sea- son. and an encouraging aptitude In tackling has been displayed this sea son, although but one game has been played.
 As running mate for Captain Co., hen on the wing, Ali Adams, n scrub last year. looms up as one of the most likely candidates. although Hayes, Haynes and Richardson have made a favorable showing
