BOSTON, Nov. 8.-Forty five per-
sons, all OF them men, were known to-
day to have lost their lives when a
crowded electric car of the Boston
Elevated Railway company plunged
through an open drawbridge into Fort
Point channel in the South Boston dis
trict during the rush hours last night.
Twelve persons escaped a1d of these
10 were so badly injured they We're
sent to hospitals for treatment.
Conductor George McKeon, one of
the injured, said he had rung up 81
fares and city officials expressed the
fear that others besides those whose
bodies were found were missing. The
car which had plunged head first into
the mud at the bottom of the 80 foot
channel was raised early today after
all the bodies had been removed b.
divers.
Gerald Walsh, the motorman, was ar
rested directly after the tragedy on a
technical charge of manslaughter. He
is alleged to have stated that the safe
ty lock signal at the end of the bridge
was set for him to 90 ahead and that
he did not see any red lights on the
gate. When he saw the open draw, ac-
cording to his alleged story. he set
the brakes, but they did not hold and
he jumped just as the car crashed
through the gates. His statements re
garding the lights were contradicted
by three bridge tenders. Every sig
nal they asserted was set as it should
have been. Miss Lillian Frank, the
only woman known to have been or
the car, was saved. The tragedy was
