WASH INGTON MAN is KILLED
AS HE STEPS FROM TRAIN
AT KEARNEYSvILLE.

Joseph Duggan, machinist in the
Navy Yard at Washington, met a
strange death about o'clock last
Thursday morning near the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad station at
Kearneysville, when he apparently
fell beneath the huge wheels on train
No. 8, coming westward. Evidently
he fell or jumped from the train
while it was in motion and met his
end as result.
No one witnessed the mans death,
and it was not until the train had
passed Kearneysville a considerable
distance that he was missed. 1t is
said the man was to have gotten off
at Washington but was asleep when
the train pulled in at Union Station
and came on through. At Harpers
Ferry the conductor awakened him
and intended to have him get off at
Martinsburg. When within few
miles of that city the conductor went
to his seat but found it vacant. He
looked the car over but saw no evil
dence of Duggan.
Upon reaching Martinsburg the
conductor acquainted Yardmaster
Ned Zepp with the facts in the case
and the yardmaster Immediately
started an engine eastward to look
for the man. His body was found
near Kearneysville, horribly disfig-
ured. His stomach was badly lac
Grated and his intestines protruded.
His head was cut to such an extent
that his brains were visible.
Thursday afternoon an employe of
the Navy Yard, at Washington, where
Duggan was employed as machinist,
appeared at Kearneysville and told
the authorities he was a friend of the
dead man and would take his body to
Duggan's mother, who lives at Pratt
City, Alabama.
The body was removed to Charles
Town and prepared for shipment
by Funeral Director M. T. Strider
and started on its journey to the
South.
Magistrate Herbert Miller, on
Thursday afternoon acted as coroner
at an inquest. AS much testimony
as could be gotten was heard by the
coroner and his jury. It's decision
was to the effect that Duggan either
walked or fell from the platform of
B. & o. train No. 9 shortly before 2
a. M, on November IS, in jefferson
County, w. Va, while the train was
in motion,
