ENGINES CRASH
HERE AF TER ONE
Il WAS DERA|lED
Steven Demko, Who Fought
In France, Dies of Injuries
at City Hospital

One man is dead and three are
slightly injured as the result of the
collision last night on the Lehigh
Valley railroad of two freight engines
near the United Lead Company fac
tory.
old, of 271 Smith street, fireman on
one of the engines, died at the City
Hospital last night after one of his
legs had been amputated. He was
very badly bruised and cut about the
body.
The others injured are: Herman
Peterson, GIT Charles street, conduc-
tor, scalded and bruised; John w.
Kennedy, 176 William street, yard
master, legs sprained and body
bruised and scal6ed, and Steven
Spiegel, engineer, shock and bruises.
The engines were coupled together
in double-header and were pulling a
string of empties out of the yards near
the lead company works about b.1O
o'clock last night when one of the en-
gines went off the track. Thrown
across the ties by its own momentum
the first locomotive lay directly in the
path of the second engine, which plow-
ed into it with disastrous results.
Steven Spiegel, the engineer on the
first locomotive jumped just in time
to>ascape death, as his cab was ground
to splinters second after he had
leaped.
Demko was not so fortunate and for
some reason was unable to jump. He
was to have been married this month,
his fiancee having been called to the
hospital last night. He had also just
returned from overseas service where
he had escaped Injury in several bat
ties.
An investigation into the cause Of
the accident is being made by the raii-
road officials, who declined to make
any statements as to the cause of the
derailment today The accident Is
unique inasmuch as the train could
not have been moving at a very
rapid rate and had there been only
one engine sit is improbable that
there would have been such serious
casualties.
Coroner Flynn appeared on the
scene shortly after the accident as
The report had been circulated that
some of the crew had been instantly
killed. Demko had been removed to
the hospital before the coroner ar
rived. The body is at the under
taking parlars of Thomas F. Burwe.
