New York, Nov. 2.-More than
100 bodies had been taken late Fri
day from what is known as the NAL
bone Street tunnel on the Bright
on Beach line Of the Brooklyn Rap
id Transit Company, where a FIVE
car train running at high speed,
jumped the track on a curve and
struck the side wall with such ter
rifle force that the first car was de-
molished and the others "buckled'
until they were jammed against the
roof Of the tunnel.
The crash occurred when the
train ahead, said to have been in
charge of a "green". motorman,
jumped the track at a switch and
another train running in the same
direction plunged into the rear cars.
The tragedy marked the first day
of strike called by the company's
motormen to enforce the reinstate-
ment of 229 discharged members of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers as ordered by the National
Labor Board. Officials of the COM
pany professed four hours after the
accident to have no definite infor-
nation as to its cause. They said
no report had been made to them
by members of the train crew.
District Attorney Lewis, of Kings
County, declared all the officials of
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany and every person in any con-
nected with the accident had been
asserted that the company was with
holding the name of the motorman.
"There is no doubt" Mr.. Lewis
said, "that the motorman of the lead
ing train was going at a high rate of
speed when he made the turn into
the cut. The front car jumped the
track and buckled. The train fol
lowing ran into the stalled car"
According to survivors of the
wreck the motorman was evidently
unused to the road as he was COM
PEELED to back up at one point when
he had taken the wrong switch.
Both trains were jammed with
passengers as the strike had result
ed in a material reduction in service
and consequently delay. =
Immediately after the wreck the
wrecked cars burst into flames, add
ing to the terror of those who had
escaped injury. and increasing the
peril of those pinned in the wreckage
Police reserves from a dozen sta.
tions were rushed to the scene of
the accident and they Immediately
sent in calls for all the ambulances
in Brooklyn, while the Manhattan
hospitals were asked for assistance.
The fire department was called upon
to aid the injured and remove the
dead.

WAR COUNCIL NOW
TALKING ARNHS7lCE
Big Withdrawal of Ger
man Armies to Be
Demanded.
FAR BEYOND RHINE
WILL BE ZONE FIXED
Terms as Finally Agreed Upon May
Be Made Known to World To-day
Sure to Be Practically De-
mand for Surrender-No
Middle Ground.


Washington, D. C.-The supreme
war council at Versailles, it was
learned Saturday through diploma
tic channels, has under considera.
tion, as the starting point in fran.
ing terms of an armistice, proposals
that Germany be required to with
draw her armies without their mill
tary supplies or the loot being car
ried from France and Belgium, to a
zone 80 miles to the German side
of the Rhine and that the entire Ger
man navy. including submarines and
the Helgoland fortresses be surren-
dered. ....
1t is possible that the conditions
when finally agreed upon may not
emerge from the council in exactly
this shape but it is believed they will
be no less potent for preserving
the military supremacy of the allies
and at the same time offer PROPOSE
tions which the Germans may accept
without further fighting. -;
+: The same information coming
through the same sources, indicates
that the armistice terms as finally
agreed upon may be made known to
the world it was said, yesterday or
today and that they will be pre-
,sented to Germany for acceptance
in their entirety or not at all, with
out opportunity for quibbhng or
trading. @.
From military point of view the
proposal that the German armies be
disarmed and retired 80 miles be-
yond the Rhine is classed only as
tantamount to an absolute surren-
der. 1t would, not only throw open
to the allied and American armies
many roads to Berlin itself but with
the surrender of railway rolling
stock deprive them of means to re-
trace their steps to fight if they
would.
As to Necessity.
There is some question among
military observers as to whether
such complete terms are really nee
essary. Undoubtedly the object
sought in proposing that the enemy
retire 80 miles behind the Rhine is
to destroy the German inner defense
system. That system is supported
by chain of fortresses without
which the line would be untenable
and some military experts believe it
may not be necessary to 60 farther
than to demand the surrender or
dismantling of those forts.
The military discussion developed
by the proposals brings a suggestion
that wide zone might be establish
ed within the borders of Germany
from which the armed forces of both
sides might be withdrawn until
peace treaties finally have fixed new
boundaries. The French and Belgi-
gian frontiers are expected to be re-
occupied by the allied armies but it
might develop that as the German
forces would be required to fall back
the German frontier provinces might
be left unoccupied in q military
sense.
1t seems certain to military ex-
perts here, however, that the terms
will include the surrender of the
Metz Notifications and such of the
Rhine forts as will clear the way for
military invasion of Germany to an
extent making resistance futile.
