with amszement at first to see how cN-

II has reached AN amusing stage.

TROLLEYS CRASH
lilies on Way to a Re-
union.

Johnstown, Pa, Aug. l4.-Twenty- five
persons were killed and SO injured in a
head on collision between two crowded
trolley cars on the line of the Southern
Cambria Traction Co., between Echo and
Brookvale, seven miles from here, Satur-
day. Fourteen persons were instantly
killed while seven others died after being
removed from the wreckage. Several
more will probably die. The cause of the
accident has not been determined.
According to eye-witnesses one car was
standing still near the carbarn at Echo
when the other car, in charge of Motor
man Angus Warner, came down a steep
grade and crashed into it. Both cars
were demolished. Shortly before the ac-
cident Warmers car was seen to rush past
the station at Brookvale with Warner
frantically waving his arms. Believing
the car was not under control, the cur.
rent was shut off at the power plant, but
this action was taken too late to avoid
the crash.
A majority of the victims were mem
bers of the Dishong and Ribblett families
en- route to a reunion at Woodlawn park.
Darrell Dishong, his wife and both his
children were victims.
