IN Tunnel CRASH
continued from First PaEe.) }

(Coutinued from First Page.)
Edward A. Lewis, admittedly a 4green
hand" and Samuel Rossos, a guard.
are held by the police, charged with
homicide. Lewis has admitted. It IL
said, that his train was running
more than thirty miles an hour and
that II was his FIRST trip as a motor
man on a passenger train.
The tragedy was the Indirect re>
suit OF the strike of B. R T. motor
men ana trainmien, which caused Of
ficials of the, road to press unex-
perienced men into service.
Survivors say Motorman Lewis ran
bis train with reckless speed. The
train left the rails on a sharp curve
in the tunnel near the Prospect Park
station and three Of the five wooden
cars were crushed like pasteboard.
Cars Loaded to Capacity.
Every one OF the cars was loaded
to capacity. Passengers were crowd
ed on the platforms and in the aisles.
When the crash came the lights went
out and the darkness of the tunnel
added to the horror of the shrieks
and groans Of the dying and injured.
Fire broke <out from contact. be-
tween the wreck and the third rail,
and in its ghastly light the work OF
rescue was carried on until torches
were brought to the scene.
II is estimated there were as many
as $50 passengers aboard the train
when it leaped from the rails and
was reduced to a shattered mass Of
ripped and splintered wood, broken
glass, tangled iron and mangled bod
les.
Mayor HyIan, Police Commissioned
Enright and District Attorney Lewis
hurried to the scene soon after the
wreck occurred. A rigid investigation
of every detail of the disaster Is un-
der way, and the authorities an
nouneed that no stone will be left
unturned to punish the responsible
parties.
Tragedy Ends Strike.
The catastrophe resulted in the hur-
ried settlement of the strike of the
motormen and trainmer today, when
the railway company met the de-
mAnds OF the strikers. The strike
was called when B. r. T. officials re-
fused TO- comply with an order Of the
War Labor Board. The company now
has agreed to pay its employees the
same wages that are paid BY the In
terborough Rapid Transit Company.
President Timothy S. Williams and
other officials OF the B. R. T. were or
dered to appear before District At
torney Lewis today to explain why
an Inexperienced -motorman was per-
mitted to take out the Inflated train.
Motorman Lewis who was arrested
at his home after fleeing from the
scene OF the wreck, was on the verge
OF collapse today. He told detectives
that he remembered nothing until he
reached his home, many blocks from
the scene. He said he was a train
dispatcher before being broken in as
q motOrman a few days ago. He was
unfamiliar with the curves and grades
along the Brighton Beach line.
