CRUSHED BY FLOAT;
ONE DIES, ONE SAVED
Policeman Torn by Ice as He
Rescues Injured Man from
East River.

Michael Walsh was pulled out Of the
East River at l25th Street last night,
badly crushed. His companion, Fred
Wagner, was drowned. Patrolman Nc
Neice, who got Walsh out, was cut by
Jagged ice which covered the float to
which Walsh was clinging.
Walsh and Wagner were employed on
the dredge deepening the channel at
Sunken Meadows. They rowed ashore to
get some tools. As their boat touched
the float the Pennsylvania tug Johns
town, faaked by car floats, swung in
shore. The hull of one of the car
floats just grazed the rowboat and
crumpled il like a nutshell.
Wagner never rose. Walsh painfully
worked his way 10 the planking Of the
landing. II was ice coated, and he
could barely sustain himself. His yell
brough. McNeice.
The patrolman found the runway to
the float was a glare of ice. With a
base runners slide, which took every
button off his coat, he sprawled down
on the landing stage, grasped Walsh $
hand, and managed TO hold on until
help came. Walsh was sent TO the Har-
lem Hospital. His legs and body were
crushed.
