MAN KILLED AS
TRAIN HITS AUTO
Truck Ran Onto. MataWan
Crossing and Freight Train
Strikes It BroadSide

MATAWAN, Nov. 4:-One man Is
dead and another seriously injured as
the result of an accident last night on
the Main street crossing OF the New
York &c Long Branch Railroad at TINS
place, when a large automobile truck
belonging to Conrad Sebolt of New
Brunswick. WAS struck by q Iast
freight and demolished.
The dead man Is Martin Crenitan
of Columbia avenue. Highland Fark-
Crenitan's skull was crushed n ne
died while pm the way to Mon
mouth Memorial Hospital at Long
Branch. He is survived by a wife and
foul children.
The~tnJured man Is William Acker.
He also received - bad scalp wound
and other injuries and at the present
time is at the Monmouth Memorial
Hospital where little hope Is held out
for his Acker's family re-
side at Plainfield and since being en-
ployed by Sebolt he has been occupy
ing one of his rooms.
The accident occurred about 1919
o'clock last night as the truck was on
its way 10 New Brunswick. The rail-
road men refused to say anything
about the matter today and the exact
story of how the accident occurred or
what made 1t possible could not be as
contained.
The fact that the truck. ran onto
the crossing in front OF the fast south
bound freight from New York, was
due to the gates not being lowered.
The train struck the truck broadside
| and carried II for q distance OF sew
| eral feet from the crossing in the d.
| rection of the station. Both men were
thrown out of the machine.
At his time of night the passenger
| trains of the road are very Few. the
/, night trains being mostly a
| freight and FISH trains from south New
Jersey. While h injured men were
! being looked after and the train crew
was removing h wreckage from the
| track, the fish train. an express to New
4 York, which carries the daily catch OF
| the fishermen from South Jersey to
| the market came through and ran
| into the wreckage. The truck, though
badly damaged by tho first collision
was completely demolished by the FISH
train.
DIR. C. A.JGesswein of Church street
who was called to the scene Of the ac-
| cident and gave the men drst aid
! treatment, after which they were
| placed aboard a train and taken to
| the hospital at Long Branch. one man
| dying as the run to that city was be-
ing made.
The Matawan Main street crossing
| although one of the busiest on the
New York & Long Branch line. Is also
one of the best guarded. three men
working eight hours each are en-
| ployed at his crossing All trains
4 from New York or the north can be
seen by the gateman for a mile OF
/, more before they reach the crossing.
\ and unless the gateman was not at
tending TO business. 1t Is hare to IN
derstand why the gates were not low
cred.
The fact that the truck was on the
crossing before the gates were low
cred Is proven by the fact that they
are In good condition. and not broken
| as they would be had the truck broken
through them through some fault OF
| the driver.
